Audiocassette
Scope and Contents
The South Carolina Black Legislators Oral History Project contains nine oral histories conducted by Dr. Todd Moye, a postdoctoral fellow at the Avery Research Center, between 1999 and 2000. Participants discuss their family history, their interest in politics, accomplishments during their political careers, and thoughts about the state of South Carolina politics and their political legacies.
The oral histories are arranged alphabetically by last name at the file level. More information about the content of each oral history can be found in the abstract at the file level of each interview. The audio recordings for the oral histories with Rep. Brenda Lee and Sen. McKinley Washington Jr. are currently missing. There is a transcript for the interview with Rep. Lee, but there is no transcript for Sen. Washington Jr.
