Professor Jack D. Forbes

“The Manipulation of Race, Caste, and Identity,” “There is no denying but what the image of the ‘Great White Fornicator’ is a popular one, exalted (as it were) by a vast folklore and accepted as valid almost without seeking proof.” Dr, Jack D. Forbes
"We should honour Dr Forbes for his enormous contributions to Native American Studies; however, honoring his contributions to African American Studies and his ability to bridge these two interdisciplinary fields is no less fitting nor does it diminish his contribution to the former"  Dr, Arica L. Coleman is a lecturer for the Center for Africana Studies at Johns Hopkins University. She is author of That the Blood Stays Pure: African Americans, Native Americans and the Predicament of Race and Identity in Virginia, Indiana University Press, 2013
