With a four-year, $1 million grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, Nebraska historians, from left, Katrina Jagodinsky, William Thomas and Jeannette Eileen Jones, with collaborators from the College of Law, Genesis Agosto, Jessica Shoemaker, Eric Berger, Danielle Jefferis and, (not pictured) Catherine will establish an academic program that enables undergraduate and graduate students to study how various marginalized groups in American history – enslaved people, racial minorities, women and Indigenous people, among others – used the law to contest and advance their rights.

Imani Brown and Thalia Rodgers, both FPA students from Omaha, paint on a "green screen" lightbox. A computer screen shows an image of Thalia Rodgers’ hand and brush as she creates an animation by painting over a live-action scene with a technique called rotoscoping. Rodgers is a student member of a team at Nebraska that is creating an animated film depicting the life of a 19th century enslaved woman who jumped out a third-story window after she had been sold to slave traders for the cotton industry. The animation is being produced with animation and video techniques by a group led by Michael Burton. April 14, 2017. Photo by Craig Chandler/University Communication.
