Hidden Paris: Beauford Delaney

Hidden Paris is a podcast for all lovers and residents of Paris, hosted by British/American expat (reared in Ireland, Italy and the US!) Mariamne Everett. Mariamne learned about the work I do at Entrée to Black Paris and asked me to do a four-part interview on various topics pertaining to African diaspora history, culture, and contemporary life in Paris. 

Of course, I couldn't do such an interview series without devoting one of them to Beauford! Click on the link beneath the Hidden Paris logo to listen:

Black Paris: Beauford Delaney
(48:27 minutes)

Mariamne posted images of several of my favorite Beauford Delaney works on Hidden Paris' Instagram account
