The BSUEA is composed primarily of retired CSULB African American alumni\, mentees of Dr. Joseph L. White and his colleagues\, and former BSU members. This webinar series was inspired by the BSUEA collection\, "Legacy\, Celebration and Remembrance\," a stunning visual display of minority faculty and student activism during the mid-1960s into the early 1970s. In this webinar\, we will talk to Dr. Alex Norman\, professor emeritus of Social Welfare at the University of California Los Angeles Luskin School of Public Affairs. Dr. Norman is co-founder of Rethinking Greater Long Beach\, a community-based think-tank that conducts research in education\, public safety\, and urban demography. Dr. Norman will provide background on the national political scene and "hinge events" between 1954-1965. Why was there a need for EOP? Past US history offers at least a partial answer.
