Ann Tussing is the wife of Dale Tussing, former Professor of Economics at Syracuse University. Both were active members of CORE, Congress Of Racial Equality, and participated in the civil rights movement of the 1960s in Syracuse. Among other CORE activities, they organized a march on Syracuse’s City Hall to protest the destruction of the 15th Ward, a dominantly African-American and Jewish community.
It was so good to see the picture of Ann Tussing. I was in CORE at the same time they were and I remember marching with them and attending meetings. It’s good to see Ann’s picture.
