Reelblack Two | Harriet Glickman - The Woman Who Inspired "Franklin" (2016) @ReelblackTwo | Uploaded May 2023 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
In 1968, HARRIET GLICKMAN wrote a letter to Peanuts creator CHARLES SHULZ, lobbying him to create an African-American character. On July 13, 2015, she appeared at the 106th Annual NAACP Convention in Philadelphia to chat with WDAS-FM's PATTY JACKSON about the letter that inspired FRANKLIN to be born. At the end of the chat, she is joined onstage by Philadelphia Mayor MICHAEL NUTTER and actor MAR-MAR, who is the voice of Franklin in the upcoming PEANUTS MOVIE.
