We Start With History, with Professor Matthew Delmont

In this episode, we meet the inimitable Ella Bell and learn a bit about her life’s work studying organizations and why she believes we need more co-conspirators at work so that everyone can thrive. She is joined by her friend and Dartmouth colleague Matthew Delmont, author of the groundbreaking new book Half American: The Epic Story of African Americans Fighting World War II at Home and Abroad. An expert on African-American history and the history of Civil Rights, Matt is the Frank J. Guarini Associate Dean of International Studies and Interdisciplinary Studies and the Sherman Fairchild Distinguished Professor of History at Dartmouth. Ella and Matt have a wide-ranging conversation about why knowing history matters, especially in the times we are living.
