Telling the stories of the most storied place

Black Alumni and Family Reunion

Posted by on Mar 5, 2012 in Media And Documentary Projects Blog

This past weekend, the Ole Miss Black Alumni and Family Reunion was held on campus. We taped several of the events and were able to capture interviews from several of the attendees. These oral histories will be used in part for the documentary we’re producing on James Meredith and the integration of Ole Miss for the 50th Anniversary of the event this fall. Here is a short video we produced that was played Friday night at the awards banquet. Think of it as an extended teaser for the larger project. Enjoy!
