We continue the saga of personal identity across multiple decades. In previous episodes we covered the Great Migration, the Harlem Renaissance, and the murder of Emmett Till, a flame that burned itself right into the Civil Rights Movement. In this episode we highlight specific moments, personal experiences and impactful words uttered in eras marked by iconic protest songs, assassinations, and the birth of global movement.
