Oral History Interview with JoAnn Paul and Diane Paul, July 29, 2016

The Paul sisters were raised in Dayton, where their grandfather had owned and operated a farm, passed down to their father.

In their interview, they described their family's history, segregation in Dayton, the differences between white and black schools, the effect of Brown v. Board, their career paths, changes in Dayton, and what they'd like to see in the future.
