Desegregation Protest Rocks Birmingham School District
More than 600 white students roamed Birmingham in cars in protest of desegregation as a riot squad in a yellow bus followed. They stormed Mayor Albern Boutwell’s office where the leader waved a Confederate flag. Boutwell stated he would continue to fight for segregation within the law. President Kennedy federalized Alabama National Guards to enforce desegregation, releasing most troops from Mobile and Tuskegee while maintaining about 570 in Birmingham and Tuscaloosa. The demonstrators, many from West End High, tailed through area high schools in a caravan, waving flags and shouting segregation slogans.
