Watch excerpts and discuss the legacy of this history with Daunasia Yancey of Black Lives Matter and James DeWolf Perry of the Center for Reconciliation.
The series of programs, Created Equal: America’s Civil Rights Struggle, is made possible through a major grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities, as part of its Bridging Cultures initiative, in partnership with the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History. Free.
