This is my first post on my multimedia site about the Freedom Riders and how the press handled the events. This site will house some of the articles that I've found on the topic and included some of the observations that I have made from reading them.
In my research, I have found numerous articles from the New York Times, Greenville Delta Democrat Times and the Jackson Daily News that I feel will help me putting out a thoughtful research paper/analysis of this period.
I will included all of these articles on the site very shortly.
For now, I encourage you to view the film , Freedom Riders by Stanley Nelson . The film was released last year on PBS and it's available to view from free on their website.
