English 12-2 Remembers Ralph Ellison

by Dr. Marzoni

After reading Ralph Ellison’s modern classic, Invisible Man, students in my College Writing class caught a train uptown to consider how Harlem has embodied dreams of progress for generations of African Americans. First, we visited the Ralph Ellison Memorial in Riverside Park. We then paid respects at the author’s tomb in the Trinity Church Cemetery and Mausoleum, and concluded the afternoon with some soul food at Charles Pan-Fried Chicken.
