SUMMARY:History through Film and Radio: OJ 30 Years Later (In-Person)
DESCRIPTION:The Intersection of Sports\, Politics and Culture \n\nOJ: 30 
 Years Later\n\nPresented by Dr. Gary Gershman\n\nEach week\, the library 
 will feature a video or radio interview (30 to 60 minutes in length) 
 highlighting a specific African American athlete or athletes who played a 
 pivotal role in breaking barriers and challenging societal norms in the 
 United States. The program will examine the broader historical context 
 through the lens of sports and will connect key moments in history with 
 iconic athletes and events.\n\nUsing clips from the Academy Award-winning 
 series OJ: Made in America\, this session will tie together themes from 
 previous discussions\, examining how O.J. Simpson both embodied and 
 challenged notions of the meritocracy of sports and the persistence of 
 racism in society. It will explore how Simpson\, who distanced himself from 
 much of the Civil Rights movement\, paradoxically became a symbol for many 
 African Americans. The session will also reflect on O.J.’s complex legacy 
 and what he represents in today’s cultural and social 
 landscape.\n\nComplimentary lite bites and refreshments will be served.\n\n
