Behold the People: Photographs of Black Dallas, 1949-1961

To celebrate Black History Month, Old Red will present a wonderful exhibit by former Dallas Star Post photographer, R.C. Hickman.  Hickman's photographs document the black middle-class life in Dallas and the celebrities who visited Dallas from 1949 to 1961. View these powerful images of lives lived prior to and in conjunction with the Civil Rights Movement.  Special tours, talks, and performances will shed more light on these turbulent years in Dallas’ history while children can participate in crafts and activities commemorating African-American history.
