Biko Mandela Gray

Biko Mandela Gray and Ryan J. Johnson discuss their book 'Phenomenology of Black Spirit' which explores the relationship between Hegel's classic text and Black Thought. They reveal how Hegel's abstract dialectic is transformed and critiqued when placed in conversation with Black thinkers. The speakers also discuss the challenges and rewards of co-authoring the book, delve into the concept of phenomenology and its connection to Blackness, and explore the significance of historical figures like Harriet Tubman and John Brown in Black communities.
