Due to technical difficulties, some of the video links in this website no longer work. We are uncertain as to when or if we will be able to correct these problems. However, the video clips constitute only a small portion of the material in this website. Moreover, the full transcripts of the oral histories from which the video clips were drawn can be found by following the "Resources" link below.

A screenshot of the To Bear Fruit website shows how glossary words are used in the story text.

Glossary terms: A definition is displayed when the computer mouse rests on top of a glossary word that is in bold black text. When this happens, the text turns dark red and a definition is displayed. Clicking on the glossary word will deliver the reader to the word shown in the glossary on a separate page. Normal links to other pages are displayed in bold red text. Example: "The Negro Health Problem," (1900-1926, Section 5)
