Last month, the Center for Faculty Development and a panel of distinguished faculty members joined forces to present a stimulating, literature-based dialogue on the Civil Rights Movement. The discussion emphasized new interpretations and highlighted books that offer more perspective to this monumental movement. As lifelong learners, we must grapple with the fact that the history taught in childhood and adolescence does not capture the depth and nuance required to understand events associated with this movement entirely. It is incumbent upon us to take the resources that are provided to us in literature and embark on a harrowing academic journey.
