  • Resumen

  • The 1970s were marked by significant strides in civil rights for African Americans and deep-seated societal unrest. On college campuses across the nation, you would often find students staging protests against the Vietnam War and the draft, but that wasn't the reason why students at Jackson State University, then Jackson State College, were upset. Students and administration were involved in a conflict that started on John R. Lynch Street, a busy commuter route that divided the college in half. Because they were worried about the safety of the students, they called for the city to step in immediately to fix the dangerous situation. But the answer they got was the exact opposite of what they asked for, culminating in the death of two students, Phillip Gibbs and James Earl Green.

    Listen as Mrs. Gailya Porter, a survivor, recounts the events that transpired before that evening and the profound impact it continues to have on the university.
