Today, we broadcast our one-hour special on Stokely Carmichael, also known as Kwame Ture. He is known by a generation of popularizing the cry of "Black Power." We speak with Dr. Peniel Joseph about his book, "Stokely: A Life." How did the concept of Black Power as a political strategy develop? How and why did Stokely Carmichael move from civil rights worker to U.S. based Black Power leader, to Pan-Africanist and socialist? What price did he pay? We have a wide-ranging coversation on Carmichael's life, impact and contributions.
