Black and White...Together?
Race Relations in American History
One of the major themes of American history is race. The tensions of recent years, the presence in government of believers in white supremacy, and the general
ignorance of past conditions of slavery and vicious prejudice against black people make clear there is much to be learned if we are to live in an equitable and just
society.
This study group for those 50 and above will be divided into two parts, (1) Slavery and (2) Jim Crow and Civil Rights, and examines our history with a focus on black-white relations, black suffering, and black achievements.
Instructor Kenneth Phifer will lead two hour sessions on Wednesdays from October 4 through November 15.
