This title is taken from Alan Paton's Cry, the Beloved Country. In South Africa, racial problems have often been solved by government police. Dr. Pettigrew discussed the history of South Africa which led to the apartheid (separation of races) and then delves into that country's similarity with the American South. Jeffrey E. Butler, an English South African, who is a research associate in the African Studies Program, Boston University, is a guest participant.

Dynamics of Desegregation is an intensive study of race relations in the United States. With particular emphasis on the South, Harvard Professor, Thomas Pettigrew looks at the historical, political, psychological, personal and cultural aspects of segregation. Specific examples of discrimination toward the American Negro are cited, with special films and dramatic vignettes underscoring Dr. Pettigrews narrative. Special guests join the professor in several episodes to explain the integration movement in the South. This series is not without bias. It is, indeed, a strong statement in support of integration. Thomas F. Pettigrew is an assistant professor of social psychology at Harvard University. A white integration leader with national reputation, Dr. Pettigrew was born in the South. He is the co-author (with Ernest Campbell) of Christians in Racial Crisis, published in 1959 by Public Affairs Press, Washington D.C.
