As we remember MLK, I am sad to hear of the death of the great Chuck McDew, a Civil Rights hero & amazing storyteller, whom I had the pleasure to meet. The linked oral history has great stuff on the connections among labor, sports, & activism @loumoore12 @admcgregor85 @mirarose88
Watch McDew tell the story of how he became the spokesperson for the Orangeburg Mov't for Civic Improvement & later a representative at #SNCC's founding conference. It's worth it. https://www.loc.gov/item/afc2010039_crhp0021 … @librarycongress @NMAAHC @SmithsonianFolkhttps://twitter.com/LarryGlickman/status/981611363062747138 …

Chuck McDew used to listen to Jacob Coxey (of "Coxey's Army" fame) in their hometown of Massillon, Ohio. Great connection between 19th and 20th century eras of reform.
