Goal
Discuss research and document the impact of cultural and humanitarian effects of segregation.
As well, seek to develop a humanities-based inter-disciplinary approach to examine the complexities of human behavior, causes and effects of change, impact on communities, and relevance to historical memory.
We believe that recognizing the Hoxie School desegregation case will provide open minded understanding of decision making and provoke innovative discussion of civil rights.
