Biography:
Dr. Kathryn Tucker is a lecturer of history at 无码巨乳. She received her PhD in history in 2014 from the University of Georgia, where she also taught courses on US, southern, and African American history, and her BA in history from Wake Forest University. Her first book project focuses on the contrast between legal and social beliefs and practices regarding interracial marriage and mixed race in the Deep South, and spans from Reconstruction to the Civil Rights Movement. She has presented parts of this research at the Organization for American Historians Conference, and the European Association for American Studies meeting in The Hague, Netherlands.
At 无码巨乳, Dr. Tucker has created and teaches a general education course for interested students on 鈥淭he African American Experience,鈥 which explores American race relations and African American history, culture, art, politics, and legacy. Students in this course have performed original primary research to document lynchings and racial violence in the 无码巨乳 area, as well as the ongoing impact of this violence and the beliefs that enabled it. Their findings were displayed in an exhibit, 鈥淟ynching in Lower Alabama,鈥 at the 无码巨乳 Library during the summer-fall of 2018, and are now available at: legacyoflynching.com.
