As part of the 75th Anniversary of Gregory H. Swanson's successful case to desegregate the University of Virginia, I created a Storymap.
We wanted to share a bit more of the context of Swanson's actions in Charlottesville, and the far reaching ripple that's with us still today.

In case you missed it, this workbook is a guide to thinking through when and how to take risks as a higher ed worker.
It aims to help us differentiate between danger and discomfort, while also offering some practical information about how to protect yourself while taking meaningful action.
