Description:

A History of Race Relations at Hanover CollegeAs current events turn our attention to race relations in America, you may want to explore the history of race relations at Hanover College.  Our website "Learning in Black and White" gathers digitized primary sources on that topic, including news stories from students who participated in the Selma to Montgomery March in 1965 and the transcript of a frank and lengthy conversation among African-American students here in 1969. You can also find a brief history and timeline there. The 1965 photo to the right shows Hanover students demonstrating in Louisville about police brutality against civil rights marchers. For Hanover's experience during the 1918 Influenza pandemic, see Will Werner-Wilson's "The Looming Specter of Death: The Town of Madison and the Influenza Epidemic of 1918-1919" in the 2018 Hanover Historical Review.Keep in touch!The history department takes pride in our students' success.
