In this episode of Coffee & History, Caroline and Susan sit down with Dr. Sonjia Parker Redmond and Dr. Beatrice J. Adams—co‑editors of the forthcoming book Children of the Struggle and the Ancestors Who Stayed by the University of Alabama Press, 2026. Together, they explore 21 powerful stories of the Tuskegee Institute High School Class of 1964 and the families who remained in the South during the Great Migration. From community resistance to the meaning of land ownership, Dr. Redmond and Dr. Adams share why these stories matter today. Pour a cup and join us for a heartfelt conversation rooted in courage, memory, and place.
