DESCRIPTION:Dr. Daphne Chamberlain will present The Emmett Till Generation: Youth Activism\, Radical Protest\, and Social Change in Jim Crow South on February 19 at 12 noon at the downtown branch of the Columbus-Lowndes Public Library System. \nThis presentation highlights the role of children\, between the ages of 7 and 18\, as leaders and participants in the Mississippi civil rights movement from 1946 to 1965. This presentation also offers a new perspective on the origins of the civil rights struggle and gives credence to how instrumental young people were to engaging in radical protest and grassroots activism in Mississippi. \n​Dr. Daphne Chamberlain is a native of Columbus\, Mississippi. She attended historic Tougaloo College where she completed her undergraduate studies in History\, and she subsequently received her Master’s and Ph.D. in History from the University of Mississippi. Before returning to Tougaloo as a faculty member and administrator where she worked for ten years\, Dr. Chamberlain taught History and African American Studies at the University of Mississippi and was also the founding Director of the COFO Civil Rights Education Center at Jackson State University. She now serves as Chief Program Officer at the Emmett Till Interpretive Center. \nFor more information\, call the CLPLS at 662-329-5300.
