from South Bend's Own Words · host IU South Bend Civil Rights Heritage Center
We’re releasing a new book. Placing History: An African American Landmark Tour of South Bend, Indiana, features South Bend’s African American history as told through some of the many landmarks where that history was made. The book is available for free in print while supplies last, and always available as an e-book by visiting http://aalt.iusb.edu/. The oral histories we’ve archived deeply informed the writing. Today, we hear longer versions of the oral histories quoted in Placing History—just some of the many people who lived, worked, or organized for change within some of these landmarks. This episode was produced by Nathalie Villalobos and George Garner from the Indiana University South Bend Civil Rights Heritage Center. Full transcript of this episode available here.
