Dr. James Brewer Stewart, professor emeritus at Macalester College in Minnesota, addresses white supremacy after the Civil War in these 16 informal mini lectures that are each 6 to 15 minutes in duration.

Dr. Stewart’s videos challenge the “historical amnesia” that exists about white supremacy. Each video describes wrenching historical events that should be understood but are usually glossed over in textbooks. He explains that this neglected history, while not caused by us, needs to be acknowledged by us as we live with addressing its consequences still to this day.
