*RERELEASE* Southern, Methodist, University

Maladjusted Podcast di Shara Jeyarajah

Note sull'episodio

There was a moment when the history of American Civil Rights and the history of SMU collided: when Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. spoke to a standing-room only crowd on March 17, 1966. At the time, our university had barely waded into the waters of desegregation. So… how did we get there? It’s complicated.

In the first episode of Maladjusted, let’s walk through the racist founding of our university, the early years of race and racism at SMU, and Dr. King’s visit.
