conducted the first interview. It focuses on Mr. Claiborne's
recollections of the history of Charlotte College and UNCC. Dr.
Dan Morrill conducted the second interview. It deals with Mr.
Claiborne's memories of the Civil Rights era in Charlotte-Mecklenburg
and with his recollections concerning Johnson C. Smith University.
He also discusses the prospects for the revitalization of the
