Oxford Town ...(history of the Bob Dylan song); also where the debate is happening tonite
Edited on Fri Sep-26-08 04:33 PM by SCRUBDASHRUB
Bob Dylan wrote a song called "Oxford Town," which was included on his album The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan. The song was about the violent events surrounding the admission of James Meredith into the University of Mississippi in 1962. Dylan played a memorable concert at the Tad Smith Coliseum on the Ole Miss campus in November 1990, which included a performance of the song Oxford Town.

1. Thank you. While the town is hoping to present itself in a better light
we cannot and should not forget what happened in many people's generation.
