In this episode, I discuss the AAUP’s involvement in the Black Freedom Struggle in the 1950s and 1960s as it related to higher ed with Joy Ann Williamson-Lott, dean of the graduate school and professor of social and cultural foundations in the College of Education at the University of Washington. Drawing on her recently published article of the same name in AAUP's Academe, we discuss how Black private institutions, Black public institutions, and white public institutions in the period approached the civil rights movement as it related to academic freedom on campus; Williamson-Lott gives us examples and perspective on how these different types of institutions “understood their self-interest differently.”   Links: <a href='https://www.aaup.org/article/aaup-and-black-freedom-struggle'>"The AAUP and the Black Freedom Struggle, 1955–1965," Joy Ann Williamson-Lott, Academe, Spring 2024</a>
