In Pursuit of Social Justice: An Oral History of the Early Years of Diversity Efforts at the University of Washington
This documentary centers on the May 20, 1968 takeover of President Odegaard’s office by members of the UW Black Student Union and their supporters. The content includes the landmark event of the 1968 sit-in and the climate of the times that led up to it, as well as the results of campus diversity efforts and their impact on the UW today. A history lesson, showing us the life and times of the decade or so before 1968, the program examines society, politics, and education during that time.
