Segregated Houston: Black Life Beyond the Hedges

The world outside of the hedges profoundly impacted the state and nature of life at Rice both in its iteration as a whites-only institution and in its later incarnation as a desegregating university. In this first of a series of events on black Houston, two eminent historians of the region explore neighborhood life in the Jim Crow city and the place of sports as a lens through which to examine Houston’s twentieth century transformations. Join us for a discussion of how to understand Rice better by seeing more of Houston and the world beyond. Participants Frank Guridy, Ph.D. Associate Professor of History, Columbia University “The Dome & the Desegregation of Sports in Houston” Tyina L. Steptoe, Ph.D. Associate Professor of History, The University of Arizona “Listening to Houston’s Communities of Color”
