Featured Scholar: Jason Goley
When Jason Goley began investigating the history of race relations and
war in the United States, he soon realized he was treading in unexplored
territory. Jason, a history major, first thought about researching the topic
of war after he saw Saving Private Ryan a few years ago. "When I left the
theater, I was not concerned with tactics, strategy or foreign policy. Rather,
my interest was in the personal experiences of the men who fought, suffered,
and died." Jason soon decided to focus his research on the racial integration
of the military during the Korean War. He felt the Korean War never captured
the imagination of Americans and has since faded from the nation's collective
memory. "The tragedy of forgetting this war lies not only with the graves
of the more than 30,000 Americans who died, but with our failure to properly
acknowledge one of America's major milestones in race relations."
