Using a wide range of materials from Special Collections and Archives, this exhibit looks at black culture at Grinnell College and in Des Moines from the period of 1967 to 1973. CULTURE. highlights individuals that were dedicated to fighting for social justice and black consciousness. It also explores the legacy of these people and movements.

This exhibit was curated by Erik Henderson ’19.

Grinnell College welcomes the participation of people with disabilities. Accommodation requests may be made to Conference Operations.

The College welcomes the presence of minors at all age-appropriate public events and for informal visits, with the understanding that a parent, legal guardian, or other responsible adult assumes full responsibility for their child’s safety and behavior during such visits or events. In these cases the College expects that an adult responsible for the visiting child takes measures to ensure the child’s safety and sees that the child complies with directions of College personnel. Grinnell College is not responsible for supervision of minors on campus.
