Children of Civil Rights brings together North Carolinians whose families played a role in the American Civil Rights movement. Through an interview-driven documentary and panel discussion, our audience discovers the similarities and differences among those who challenged institutional racism in Jim Crow America. Subject matter expert and co-host Dr. Nishani Frazier is the Director of Public History at NCSU and has written several books on the Civil Rights movement. Additionally, her family was deeply involved in CORE and the NAACP in North Carolina, Ohio, and Mississippi.
