What We Don't Understand about Jeremiah Wright | ||
How much
has changed? I'm standing here
in front of Ambrose Hall because much of the impetus for the Civil
Rights Movement in Davenport came out of this building. In the late
1940's, the atmosphere here produced a "ferment that made the place
something special." Sociology students conducted research that
proved that blacks were second class citizens at best. So much has
changed since then that white Americans were shocked at Rev.
Jeremiah Wright's statements a few weeks ago, but we need to understand
civil rights history and black churches
to put this into perspective. Please sign my guest book and listen
to more of the story.
