The Second Reconstruction

The Civil Rights movement of the mid-twentieth century begins despite the internal conflicts that shape it. We focus particularly on the complex response to the bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama in 1963 as well as the ideological debates surrounding the Selma march in 1965. This episode disrupts the standard Civil Rights story of a steady path to racial progress in this country.

Great

I really like Dr. Glaude’s voice. The history is good. Great to learn that the madness we are experiencing has happened similarly before.
