February Semi-Colon Club: Richard Wright's Almos' A Man (film)
NOTE: This discussion group will be HYBRID--both at the Walnut Hills Branch Library and online via Zoom.
"The Man Who Was Almost a Man", also known as "Almos' a Man", is a short story by Richard Wright. It was originally published in 1940 in Harper's Bazaar magazine,[1] and again in 1961 as part of Wright's compilation Eight Men. The story centers on Dave, a young African-American farm worker who is struggling to declare his identity in the atmosphere of the rural South. The story was adapted into a 1976 film starring LeVar Burton.
