Скачать или смотреть Dr. Terrence Roberts — A Conversation About “The U.S. and the Holocaust”

Dr. Terrence Roberts, one of the members of the Little Rock Nine, sat down with Arkansas PBS to discuss why he decided to join the group of Black students who integrated the racially segregated Central High School. Dr. Roberts' experience as a young person with many questions about the unequal treatment of African Americans led him to explore his father's experience being conscripted into the Navy prior to World War II, the treatment of African American soldiers while serving and the Double V campaign. He also shares his thoughts on Holocaust history, the Nazis' research of the Jim Crow South, Nazi interest in how the United States codified the separation of Black and white citizens, and the Ken Burns, Lynn Novick and Sarah Botstein documentary film "The U.S. and the Holocaust."

Dr. Roberts' interview took place in September 2022 during the 65th anniversary commemoration of the desegregation of Little Rock Central High School.

The views expressed in this interview are the participant's own, not necessarily those of Arkansas PBS. In accordance with Arkansas PBS’s policy of fairness and balance, other viewpoints are welcome.
