Tennessee: Nashville’s Civil Rights Legacy

  • Resumen

  • The Tennessee Civil Rights Trail podcast explores the most significant aspects of the Movement in the state. This episode takes a look at the integral role college students played in the city (from Fisk University, American Baptist College, Tennessee State University and elsewhere) especially as they participated in significant protests, such as the Feb. 1960 sit-in at the F.W. Woolworth building and separately at the April 1960 Davidson County courthouse to protest a bombing at a Civil Rights attorney’s home. Finally, as a nod to the National Museum of African American Music, the episode concludes by exploring how influential African American music was during the 1950s and 1960s.
