Lincoln University is Missouri's oldest historically Black college or university. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, it was one of the few options for Black Missourians to pursue higher education. But was it always just for Black students?
Join Stephana Landwehr, a semi-retired educator and 1966 graduate of Lincoln University, as she explores the original documents of the university's integration leaders as they prepared to integrate.
