“Hey Soul Brother?: African American Troops and Vietnamese Civilians, 1959-1975”

Southeast Asia Crossroads Podcast - CSEAS @ NIU

Drs Jones and Arnold discuss the African American experience in the Vietnam War. Professor Stanley Arnold's research interests are concentrated in two related areas, civil rights movement in the United States from 1920 to 1970 exclusive of the South and the intersection of race and sports in the United States. As a historian, one of his goals is to link the study of the past to the relevance of today. His work in these two principal fields serves to illuminate many aspects of the contemporary American experience.
