About the Program
Glen Browder, former U.S. congressman from Alabama, argues that the civil rights movement in the South was not exclusively marked by struggles between blacks and white. Instead, he presents a history of bi-racial cooperation in the efforts to advance civil rights. He is joined in discussion by Butler Derrick, former U.S. congressman from South Carolina, Eva Clayton, former U.S. congresswoman from North Carolina, and Artemesia Stanberry, assistant professor at North Carolina Central University and coauthor of Stealth Reconstruction at the National Archives in Washington, DC.
