Abstract
The essay focuses on The Fisk University Race Relations Institute. The author argues that even though the RRI was conceptualized over 55 years ago, it remains a successful model for contemporary civil rights and social justice activism. The social, political, and economic issues that RRI founder Charles S. Johnson identified during the 1940s as being critical to addressing and improving the then existing disparity in the African American community are comparable to those recognized by today's scholars and politicians as existing in current communities.
