from SHK-8 Bulldog Talk: On the Edge · host shk8bulldogtalk

In this episode, we explore the story of the Ballard House Project and the amazing legacy of the Dr. Herschell Hamilton, who was a doctor here in Birmingham during the Civil Rights era. He was a hero on the front lines, providing medical care to people—including those who were hurt by police dogs during the protests. His story isn’t just about the past; it’s about the courage and kindness that built the Birmingham we live in today. Join Dr. Majella and Mr. Herschell Hamilton as we learn how these stories shape our community and why we can never forget where we came from.
