Description
The statue of James Meredith on the University of Mississippi campus. Ole Miss, and the city of Oxford erupted in riots when the Kennedy administration used US Marshals to enforce the federal court order to allow Meredith to enroll in 1962. In 2006 the University installed this statue to recognize Mr. Meredith's contributions to the modernization of the state, and his personal sacrifices. The statue is the creation of Mississippi sculptor Rod Moorhouse.
