Resisting Segregation:
Cleveland Heights Activists Shape Their Community 1964-1976
Featuring Author Susan Kaeser
Today, the Cleveland metro area, unfortunately, ranks as one of the top ten most racially segregated urban areas in the country. Yet, a few communities stand out as national models of racial diversity, and Cleveland Heights happens to stand out among them. How did it happen? Hear Susan Kaeser, author of the new book, Resisting Segregation: Cleveland Heights Activists Shape Their Community,
1964-1976, discuss the courage, dedication, and resilience of grass root activists who waged a fight to transform Cleveland Heights from an exclusive, all-white suburb into an inclusive, diverse community.
