'The Anointed One': That was how The Harvard Crimson titled its 1995 profile of Alvin L. Bragg, Jr., then a graduating senior at the college. Harvard was full of ambitious young people, but Bragg seemed destined for something exceptional, a product of Harlem who had gone to one of the most prestigious private schools in Manhattan and had emerged as a campus leader in Cambridge.
Already, there was talk of Bragg entering politics."I would push him toward elective politics because he's the perfect example of a crossover politician who can draw votes from both white and Black voters," Harvard’s dean of students told the Crimson.
Bragg, for his part, says he will pursue charges if they are warranted, without regard for political ramifications. “We do not tolerate attempts to intimidate our office or threaten the rule of law in New York,” he said over the weekend. Still, he was a young Black man in a city beset by violence. The New York Police Department sometimes took flagrant liberties, expecting little consequence from a terrified public.
