Truman face from Bishop over racial sitdowns
In Louisville, Bishop C Ewbank Tucker of the AME Zion Church rebutted former President Truman's Civil Rights stance. Tucker said Truman’s view on lunch counter sit downs insults 1,500,000 Black Americans and accused him of not acting against discrimination. Truman defended himself as a pro-civil rights Democrat who authored the party plank in 1948.
