It’s been 100 years since Virginia lawmakers created the Virginia State Board of Censors.  The all-white board required edits to over 2,000 movies from the 1920s through ‘60s, and were especially concerned about depictions of race.  Melissa Ooten with the University of Richmond wrote a book about the board. She sat down with VPM News reporter Ben Paviour to discuss her research.

VPM News is the staff byline for articles and podcasts written and produced by multiple reporters and editors.
