Josephine Fleming talk about African American issues in the nation
Description
Josephine Fleming discusses how they learned about African American issues in the nation from the Afro newspaper. They learned about events involving Martin Luther King, Rosa Parks, and Emmett Till that sparked the Civil Rights movement. Although she and her son, Steve, express that racial tensions were calmer here than in the Deep South, blacks were privately very concerned and kept abreast of national issues.
