Robert Carr Chapel echoed with the sounds of the Civil Rights era Sunday afternoon as students sang songs that inspired a generation in the struggle for equality.
The event called “The Soundtrack of a Nation” was the work of TCU students who had gone on January's Civil Rights Bus Tour Experience, a collaborative effort between the departments of history and geography, the TCU Leadership Center; Inclusiveness & Intercultural Services; and the Center for Community Involvement & Service-Learning. The seven-day, five-state tour included stops at the Little Rock high school where nine African-American students pioneered school desegregation and the Atlanta birthplace of The Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.
