REFLECTIONS AND HISTORY

This exhibit includes two sections, Reflections and Pride and Struggle.

Reflections takes us into the mind of Dr. Herman Hudson, founder of the Afro-American Studies Program at IU Bloomington, first Vice Chancellor for the Office of Afro-American Affairs [created in 1968], first Dean of that same office and creator of the Afro-American Arts Institute. 

Pride and Struggle shows us what the Black Power era brought to the racial landscape of IU Bloomington and how the student backlash it created spared no one, not even Hudson.
