SUMMARY:Hoosier Heroes in the Struggle for Racial Justice
DESCRIPTION:This talk will begin by exploring the nature of racial discrimination in Indiana’s history. Against this background\, the presentation will highlight a half dozen heroes–men and women who challenged majority opinion and found practical means to fight the good fight\, even before the civil rights movement of the 1960s. Their courage can spark thought about our present-day challenges. PowerPoint slides will enhance understanding and conversation. \nJames H. Madison (he/him) is the Thomas and Kathryn Miller Professor Emeritus of History at Indiana University\, Bloomington\, where he served for four decades. His books include Eli Lilly: A Life; Slinging Doughnuts for the Boys: An American Woman in World War II; Hoosiers: A New History of Indiana; A Lynching in the Heartland: Race and Memory in America; and The Ku Klux Klan in the Heartland. He has spoken to dozens of public audiences across the state. Jim is the recipient of the Eugene and Marilyn\nGlick Lifetime Author Achievement Award and the Indiana Historical Society’s Living Legends Award.
