The Orangeburg Massacre: A Case Study of the Influence of Social Phenomena on Historical Recollection
Tóm tắt
In 1968, students from historically black South Carolina State College, angered over the continued segregation of a local bowling alley, engaged in an on-campus conflict with law enforcement. This was a landmark event in the Civil Rights Movement as it represented the first occasion where deaths resulted from an on-campus confrontation between police and students. In this study, oral histories and written documentaries from participant observers of this event were analyzed in the context of four social phenomena of the era: political culture, race in higher education, the Civil Rights Movement, and student unrest. The results were discussed in terms of the degree of influence that each of the social phenomena had on the historical source.
