Clemson Brickmaking Project
Transcript available upon request
A weeklong workshop to hand-mold bricks from clay collected from campus as a tribute to the predominately African-American convict labor crew who made the bricks for the original campus buildings. This event was part of Race and the University: A Continuing Conversation – a yearlong series of events, lectures, performance and exhibitions. The initiative aims to foster a campus-wide dialogue about race and diversity at Clemson. In so doing, we join a national and global conversation about education, diversity and inclusion taking place at higher education institutions across the nation. Sponsored by the College of Architecture, Arts and Humanities and the Chief Diversity Office.
