Southern Democrats rally to oppose Kennedy civil rights bill
Sixty percent of Southern senators led by Senator Richard Russell denounce a proposed federal civil rights bill as an attack on private property and call it a step toward statism. They vow to fight measures empowering the attorney general to desegregate schools, while a broader effort to slow Kennedy’s civil rights agenda unfolds. Russell warns against appeasement of demonstrators and defends constitutional rights amid expectations of nationwide protests.
