Description
Web site that includes an online exhibit of documents, images, and archival materials related to social and political demonstrations in the Chapel Hill, North Carolina area in the 1960s, and focuses on four different periods of protest against the following events: segregated restaurants and public establishments in Chapel Hill; a North Carolina legislative ban of leftist public speakers across the state's college campuses; unfair labor practices enacted against African American cafeteria workers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill; and United States policy in Vietnam and southeast Asia. The materials in the online exhibit were originally part of a physical exhibit and a series of related programs held in the Manuscripts Department of Wilson Library at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill from January 23 to June 15, 2007. The web site also contains timelines, bibliographies, biographies of demonstration participants, and other research tools.
