994: The Red Summer // Spiritual Lessons from Black and White America 05 (Eric Ludy)

This is the fifth installment in Eric's epic summer series covering the contentious and war-torn season of American history from 1914 to 1974. In this episode he explores the incident in American history known as The Red Summer. In 1919, hundreds of thousands of Black men returned home from Europe after serving heroically in WW1 and fighting for the freedoms we enjoy here in America. Upon returning to the States, these men expected to be treated as full citizens after serving in this fashion, but instead, they were deemed a collossal threat to the established social order of the day.
