back LARRY I. PALMER
A Reading from Scholarship Boy
In September 2020, Larry I. Palmer, writer and retired law professor, read excerpts from his book Scholarship Boy: Meditations on Family and Race. This reading provides a snapshot of the terrain explored by the memoir. Palmer opens with a passage from the first chapter, “Get the Boy on the Train,” which is followed by later scenes in which he dances with his sister and graduates from Harvard.
