Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For nearly sixty years, the University of Oklahoma, in obedience to state law, denied admission to African Americans. Only in October 1948 did this racial barrier start to break down, when an elderly teacher named George McLaurin became the first African American to enroll at the university. McLaurin’s case, championed by the NAACP, drew national attention and culminated in a U.S. Supreme Court decision. In Breaking Down Barriers, distinguished historian David W. Levy chronicles the historically significant—and at times poignant—story of McLaurin’s two-year struggle to secure his rights. Through exhaustive research, Levy has uncovered as much as we can know about George McLaurin (1887–1968), a notably private person. A veteran educator, he was fully qualified for admission as a graduate student in the university’s School of Education. When the university denied his application, solely on the basis of race, McLaurin received immediate assistance from the NAACP and its lead attorney Thurgood Marshall, who brilliantly defended his case in state and federal courts. On his very first day of class, as Levy details, McLaurin had to sit in a special alcove, separate from the white students in the classroom. Photographs of McLaurin in this humiliating position set off a firestorm of national outrage. Dozens of other African American men and women followed McLaurin to the university, and Levy reviews the many bizarre contortions that university officials had to perform, often against their own inclinations, to accord with the state’s mandate to keep black and white students apart in classrooms, the library, cafeterias and dormitories, and the football stadium. Ultimately, in 1950, the U.S. Supreme Court, swayed by the arguments of Marshall and his co-counsel Robert Carter, ruled in McLaurin’s favor. The decision, as Levy explains, stopped short of toppling the decades-old doctrine of “separate but equal.” But the case led directly to the 1954 landmark decision in Brown v. Board of Education, which finally declared that flawed policy unconstitutional.

Book Synopsis Education of Negro leaders by : Ambrose Caliver
Download or read book Education of Negro leaders written by Ambrose Caliver and published by . This book was released on 1949 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its establishment, the Office of Education has shown special interest in the education of Negroes. In addition to the many sections of reports, articles, circulars and bulletins devoted to the various phases of the education of Negroes, seven comprehensive studies and one conference report have been published presenting certain aspects of their higher education. The present study is a natural outgrowth and continuation of the interest shown by the Office of Education in the graduate and professional education of Negroes over the years. It has brought together in an organized way a mass of material on the subject from numerous sources, and has presented it in such a manner as to show graduate and professional instruction of Negroes to be the climax of a long, difficult, and expensive process, the various phases of which have intimate and broad interrelationships. The author of this bulletin gathered the data from many sources: Through numerous interviews with college presidents, faculty members, and Government officials; through bibliographic research; from special memoranda and other unpublished materials; and through visits to college campuses. This bulletin contains the following: (1) Conditions Largely Racial in Origin; (2) Regional Influences; (3) Factors That Are National in Character; and (4) Suggested Programs of Action. Individual parts contain footnotes. (Contains 7 figures and 17 tables.) [Best copy available has been provided.].
Book Synopsis Blacks in White Colleges by : George Lynn Cross
Download or read book Blacks in White Colleges written by George Lynn Cross and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2014-03-24 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When George Lynn Cross arrived to teach botany at the University of Oklahoma in the summer of 1934, racial segregation was so strong in Norman that no African American dared remain within the city limits after sundown. Almost ten years later when Cross became president of the university, the full extent of Oklahoma’s segregation laws came sharply into focus. This book is President Cross’s story of the events leading to the desegregation of the University of Oklahoma in 1948, with the admission of George W. McLaurin to the Graduate School of Education. Earlier, a young black woman, Ada Lois Sipuel Fisher, had applied to the OU School of Law and been denied admission because of her race. With the help of attorneys from the NAACP she took her case to the U.S. Supreme Court. The High Court equivocated, and a “separate but equal” law school was hastily established in Oklahoma City as a branch of all-black Langston University. It was not until three years later—and then only after the intervention of President Cross, who personally overrode “the law’s delay”—that Ms. Fisher was able to study at the University of Oklahoma, from which she later graduated with honors. Cross places these momentous events in historical context. The story of desegregation at the University of Oklahoma, a landmark in the continuing struggle for racial equality in the United States, makes for an engrossing book.
