This week’s show deals with some history of Dallas education around the time of the Reconstruction and discuss modern African-influenced art and culture.
First, I share a snippet of a lecture that I recorded at the downtown Dallas library from professor and author, Michael Phillips. The results of his research are found in his book, “White Metropolis: Race, Ethnicity, and Religion in Dallas, 1841-2001“. The lecture was hosted by Democracy For America.
The music snippet is “Gnu York”, by Jason Smith. Special thanks to Alternity Records.
