During the Reconstruction Era, African Americans were granted basic Civil Rights after the Civil War. A number of eras and movements occurred afterward, such as the Jim Crow Era and the Civil Rights movement to further the fight for equality in this country. Where are we now with the understanding of where we are as a country today? What have we accomplished? What is in our way?
We take a look back on our conversations about race, social justice, and civil rights with Rudy Nickens, Starsky Wilson, and Amy Hunter.
