About this listen

Ms. Carolyn Addison says that teaching is in her DNA. Her grandmother, Estella Beck, started a school in Mississippi in the early 1900s. In this episode, we’ll talk about freedman’s schools like Estella Beck’s, Ms. Addison’s own experiences as a teacher, guidance counselor, and desegregator, and her experience witnessing an infamous act of racial violence at Jackson State College in 1970. 

Our theme music is Summer Night by Vanilla. You can find their music at vanillabeats.bandcamp.com
