Professor Nicole Aljoe, Director of the Africana Studies Program at Northeastern University, discusses the work of Pauline Hopkins (1859–1930), author of the fictional Of One Blood; 要么, The Hidden Self (1903). The novel, first published in The Colored American Magazine, based in Boston, imagines the rediscovery of ancient Meroe at the start of the 20th century.
