Zora Neale Hurston has long been considered a literary giant of the Harlem Renaissance, but her anthropological and ethnographic endeavors were equally important and impactful. This in-depth biography delves into the life and work of the influential author and anthropologist whose work would challenge assumptions about race, gender, and cultural superiority that had long defined the field in the 19th century. “Zora Neale Hurston: Claiming a Space” premieres Jan 17 at 9/8c on PBS. https://to.pbs.
