  • Summary

  • Eroseanna “Rose” Robinson was a track star and member of the U.S. Women’s National Team in 1958. “Sis,” as she called herself, was also a devout activist who fought for segregation and equality for African-Americans.  After boldly protesting during the Pan-American games of 1959, Rose would find herself in the crosshairs of the U.S. Government. During her prosecution and conviction, Rose began a hunger strike that gained national attention — and nearly killed her.  Guests include: John Carlos, Gwen Berry, Amira Rose-Davis, Mel Pender, Victoria W. Wolcott.
