Massive Resistance in Virginia--Multimedia(University of Virginia: "The Ground Beneath Our Feet (Episodes in Virginia History): Massive Resistance")
Description
This audio/video resource contains two interview clips with an African American mother and daughter who lived through the period of segregated education in Virginia. It allows students to further explore the complexities of "massive resistance" and its eventual demise. Among other things, students can compare the testimony of Mrs. Issac with the account given by her mother, Mrs. Allen. There will be interesting contrasts as well as similarities between the views and motivations of separate generations.
