VCU Professor to work on Voices of Civil Rights project
Clarence W. Thomas, Ph.D., associate professor in Virginia Commonwealth University's School of Mass Communications, will work on the Voices of Civil Rights project, which is sponsored by the AARP, the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights and the Library of Congress. The project's goal is to collect and preserve the stories of the Civil Rights movement. The information will become part of a repository at the Library of Congress and will be used for scholarly investigation in the future.
The project already has collected several thousand accounts of the movement. More information on this project is available here: htt://www.voicesofcivilrights.org.
