Given the prevailing attitudes, blacks were not expected to choose white schools. This proved true for all but the Carters. This documentary places the Carters' commitment to obtaining a quality education in context, by examining the conditions of segregation prior to 1965, the hardships the family faced during desegregation, and the massive white resistance which led to resegregation. While the town of Drew is geographically isolated, the patterns of segregation, desegregation, and resegregation are increasingly apparent throughout public education systems in the United States. 600 30 $a Carter family. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85020497 600 10 $a Carter, Mae Bertha, $d 1923-1999. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n96112829 650 0 $a Segregation in education $z Drew. $z Drew. 650 0 $a School integration $z Drew. $z Drew. 651 0 $a Drew (Miss.) $x Race relations. 655 7 $a Documentary films $z United States. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Video recordings for the hearing impaired. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2011026725 700 1 $a Prince, Chea. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2004012245 700 1 $a Curry, Constance, $d 1933- $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n95053346 700 1 $a Curry, Constance, $d 1933- $t Silver rights. 710 2 $a Public Domain (Firm) 710 2 $a University of Mississippi. $b Center for the Study of Southern Culture. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n82133032 710 2 $a Blue Stream Productions. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2005049027 710 2 $a First Run/Icarus Films. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no95002698 941 $a 1 945 $a vhs 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231021024334.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=35EF5C5A00D511E888826E0497128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
