Part of the Alain LeRoy Locke Lecture Series

The Alain LeRoy Locke Lectures are named after the godfather of the Harlem Renaissance, Alain LeRoy Locke (1885–1954). These lectures are intended to honor the memory and contributions of this noted Harvard scholar, who became the first and, until 1963, the only African American to become a Rhodes Scholar at the University of Oxford.
