Martin Luther King Jr. leader of the civil rights movement [homepage]

Martin Luther King Jr., prime mover of the Montgomery bus boycott, keynote speaker at the March on Washington, and youngest Nobel Peace Prize laureate, speaks about racial discrimination. Unquestionably, King's policy of nonviolent protest was a dominant force in the civil rights movement during its decade of greatest achievement from 1957 to 1968.

September 14, 2005

Mary Frances Berry professor, American social thought, UPenn [homepage]

Mary Francis Berry reclaims Callie House, a magnificent heroine who, though so long forgotten that the site of her grave is unknown, emerges as a pioneering activist: a female forerunner of both Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr.

Born in to slavery in 1861, Callie House started the Ex-Slave Mutual Relief, Bounty and Pension Association, which sought African American pensions based on those offered Union soldiers, a movement so powerful it frightened the US government, upset Jim Crow legislatures across the South, and gave hope to hundreds of thousands of destitute former slaves.

Co-sponsored by the Museum of Afro American History and the Center for New Words.

Series: NPR Hosts and Correspondents Series

August 6, 2005

This bicentennial celebration, co-presented by the Museum of Afro-American History and the Boston Public Library, includes The Massachusetts 54th Regiment and musical performances by Vivian Cooley-Collier, Guy Peartree, and the Studio Singers of the Eliot Congregational Church of Roxbury.

The "Words of Thunder" exhibitions at the Museum of Afro-American History celebrate the life, achievements, and challenges of famed Boston abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison (1805-1879) during the bicentennial of his birth. From 1831 through the Civil War, Boston was the center of the radical abolition movement in the United States. View original prints of The Liberator. Although William Lloyd Garrison was the pioneer of radical abolition, he was aided by men and women, white and black. These ambassadors of abolition sparked, supported, and sustained the anti-slavery movement.

• Abolition and Garrison Bicentennial Series
• Slavery and the Making of America Series

Stanley Tookie Williams and Chris Dunn - Words from Prison

Sat. Feb. 4, 2011

Stanley Tookie Williams

Executed for a crime he did not commit. Many say, “But he did kill some people.”

Tookie was a crimnal and co-started one of the most notorious street gangs but while in prison he did a lot to help keep children out of the gangs. He was nominated for the nobel peace prize and given an award by the president but still executed. Usually those executed are not the people who committed the crime.

Chris Dunn - Words from Prison

You will hear a tape Chris sent me about prison life, drug abuse and the young peoples last chance. Chris is in prison in Jefferson City, Mo for a murder he did not commit. One witness recanted and the other probably did it.

Old Time Radio - Jubilee - 2-1-2012

The Crazy Old Man Network

Old Time Radio

Wed. Feb. 1, 2012

Before Television my family would watch the radio shows. Yes I said watch, we used our imagination. When TV came I missed the radio shows because the imagination was better than what was shown on TV.

I hope you enjoy the shows like I did. Let your mind free to see what is on the show. You can see more with your mind than with your eyes.

Presented by the War Department, Jubilee was broadcast to American fighting men and women overseas and featured a mostly Black cast, including appearances by Louie Armstrong, Eddie "Rochester" Anderson, Nat King Cole, and Heavyweight champion Joe Louis.
