SUMMARY:Lunchbox Learning
DESCRIPTION:What Does The Brown Decision Mean Today?\nThe Tangled Legacy of the 1954 Supreme Court Ruling\nPresented by Dr. Steve O’Neill\, Furman University \nDr. Steve O’Neill is a professor of history at Furman University. His research focuses on the history of the Civil Rights Movement in South Carolina. This lecture explores the legacy of the 1954 Supreme Court case\,  Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka\, and its lasting impact on the American education system. The ruling outlawed segregation in the nation’s schools but did little to combat de facto segregation caused by housing patterns and existing attendance zones. In the years following the Brown decision\, district courts worked to better define the parameters of school desegregation. Dr. O’Neill examines the defining cases in South Carolina\, emphasizing the Ganaway v. Charleston County School District case and the State of South Carolina decision in 1992. \n \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLunchbox Learning is generously sponsored by:

SUMMARY:Lunchbox Learning
DESCRIPTION:Lost Restaurants of Greenville \nPresented by Mr. John Nolan \nLocal historian\, John Nolan\, explores the great culinary history of Greenville\, South Carolina. While today’s visitors and locals enjoy a diverse and acclaimed culinary landscape\, Lost Restaurants of Greenville tells a story of the past\, and how it shaped the present. Some will remember recent favorites like the American Grocery Restaurant\, which helped pioneer the farm-to-table movement. Others will remember longtime favorites like Carpenter Bros. Drug Store\, Charlie’s Steak House\, and Gene’s Restaurant that were around for three or four generations. Few in the second half of the twentieth century might have dined at one of Vince Perone’s restaurants for some special occasion. Author and tour guide John Nolan recalls the fond memories of the owners and their cuisines\, with recipes included. \n \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLunchbox Learning is generously sponsored by:
