Trials and Prejudice at Military Academy

A detailed account covers harsh treatment of a Black student at a southern military academy. Cadet officers isolate him, refuse social contact, and mock him during examinations. Incidents include insults at meals, a taunting greeting, and threats of expulsion. The narrative contrasts alleged gentleness from a Georgia officer with hostility from a New York cadet. The report also notes prior warnings against Black graduation and mentions a violent incident three masked men inflicted on him.
