| Project | L.2. University of North Carolina: Anne Queen and the Campus Y |
| Project description | Interviews, 1990-2010, about the Campus Y and Anne Queen, its director, 1964-1975. The Campus Y, a student organization founded in 1859, was active in integrating the University of North Carolina's undergraduate program, the local civil rights movement, Vietnam War protests, overturning the Speaker Ban Law, the Foodworkers' Strikes of 1969 and 1970, anti-apartheid work, and other major social movements. Interviewees include former Y student leaders, alumni, staff, and University administrators, who focus on the significance of the Y, with reflections on social movements, the development of social consciousness, staff support, student leadership and community, and work in post-college life. |

| Abstract | Kay Goldstein was a student at UNC-Chapel Hill and a member of the Campus Y from 1967-1971. She found the Y through her involvement in the Food Workers' Strike. Goldstein was never involved with specific committees, but she was an active and regular participant in Campus Y activities. She spent a summer working at the Campus Y with Anne Queen. Goldstein describes Anne Queen as a role model for women and as a leader who was an extraordinarily committed to relationships and communication. She describes the way in which Anne Queen used food, her home and her personality to connect others and to encourage debate and dialogue over key issues of race and gender inequality. Goldstein discusses her role in the feminist movement and her experience as a woman in one of the first full-time classes of women allowed at UNC. She reflects on the type of hostility around social movements which was present at UNC during the late 1960s, and the aura of strife surrounding the violence that her generation experienced. Goldstein finishes the interview by discussing her spiritual practices and postgraduate work in the food business. Goldstein reflects on how revisiting this time in her life--college and her experience with the Y--allowed her to rethink the significance of her experience at UNC and with the Y, both on a personal level and on a grander scale during the tumultuous 1960s. |
