This exhibit, created by Martha Pearson while she was a Public History student at Northeastern University, uses Northeastern's collections to explore the time period leading up to school desegregation.
'Stark and Subtle Divisions' is collaboratively created by History and American Studies students at UMass Boston. Focusing more broadly on segregation in Boston, much of the work nonetheless touches on school segregation and desegregation using materials in Mass Boston's archives.
