Hubert Harrison's Gravesite
April 27th is Hubert Harrison's Birthday
This photo is of the Unmarked, Shared, Gravesite of Hubert Henry Harrison in Woodlawn Cemetery, Bronx, NY.
The gravesite symbolizes the poverty Harrison and his family lived in and the lack of recognition he has received.
April 27 is the birthday of Hubert Henry Harrison (1883-1927), writer, orator, editor, critic, and political activist who was described as the "father of Harlem radicalism," as the “foremost Afro-American intellect of his time,” and as the initiator of the first "regular book-review section known to Negro newspaperdom." Harrison played unique, signal roles in the largest class radical movement (socialism) and the largest race radical movement (the New Negro/Garvey movement) of his era. He was the foremost Black organizer, agitator, and theoretician of the Socialist Party of New York, the founder of the "New Negro" movement, the editor of “The Voice” (1917-18), “New Negro” (1919), and “Negro World” (1920), and the principal radical influence on the Garvey movement. A self-described, “radical internationalist,” he was also a highly praised journalist and critic, a postal labor unionist, a union organizer (with both the Hotel Workers and the Pullman Porters), an IWW supporter, a speaker at the 1913 Paterson strike, a freethinker and early proponent of birth control, a supporter of Black writers and artists, a leading community-based public intellectual, an adult education lecturer for the New York City Board of Education, and a bibliophile and library popularizer who helped transform the 135th Street Public Library into an international center for research in Black culture.
