Medill Students Produce Ricky Byrdsong Documentary

Several NU students have produced a documentary about the life and legacy of former Wildcat coach Ricky Byrdsong who was tragically and senselessly killed by a white supremacist in 1999. The documentary is a fine piece of work which examines some very important issues. You can watch the entire documentary on-line at vimeo.

Chicago College Basketball has a Q&A with one the students who produced the documentary. You can read that at this link: http://www.chicagonow.com/blogs/chicago-college-basketball/2009/06/remembering-ricky-byrdsong.html#more
