Desegregation Effort Highlighted in The Children of the South
Enterprise summarizes Margaret Andersons The Children of the South, a study of Clinton Tennessee public school desegregation beginning in 1956. It notes the National Guard involvement after a 1957 school explosion and profiles the courage of Negro students facing taunts while white peers some helped. The review urges comprehensive educational reform and ongoing anti prejudice measures to sustain integration.
