About this listen

 In this powerful episode of What U Said, host Dr. Christopher B. Davis sits down with Dr. Russell Wigginton, President of the National Civil Rights Museum, for a timely and thought-provoking conversation on truth, legacy, and responsibility. Dr. Wigginton’s audible moment draws from King: A Life by Jonathan Eig, using Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s full humanity as a lens to examine what it truly means to confront hard truths personally, institutionally, and collectively.

Together, they explore how leaning into legacy requires courage, honesty, and action, and why these conversations matter deeply for LeMoyne-Owen College students and the broader public. The episode bridges campus and community, connecting LOC’s mission with the living work of the National Civil Rights Museum, and challenges listeners to move beyond reverence into reflection, relevance, and responsibility. This is a dialogue that invites you not just to listen but to engage, reckon, and carry the work forward.
