This week on Under the Radar with Callie Crossley:
Zora Neale Hurston has long been known as a key figure of the Harlem Renaissance, in particular for her novel "Their Eyes Were Watching God."
But what you may not know is that she was also a dedicated anthropologist — ultimately becoming known as the foremost authority on Black folklore in her time.
We speak with the writer and director of "Zora Neale Hurston: Claiming a Space," a new in-depth documentary that highlights the significant contributions Hurston made to the world of anthropology.
Guest:
Tracy Heather Strain, president and co-founder of The Film Posse, Corwin-Fuller professor of film studies at Wesleyan University, and writer and director of "Zora Neale Hurston: Claiming a Space"
