Violence and desegregation clash in Jackson attack at lunch counter
Across Jackson tensions rise after a Tuesday sit in at a variety store lunch counter. A white teacher and four Negroes faced a beating as a crowd gathered. Negro leaders met Mayor Thompson who claimed he would meet some goals while denying others. The NAACP rally quoted promises of Negroes for police positions and school desegregation, but the park-use dispute and sign removals remained contested. Police and city officials pledge upgrades for Black employees amidst ongoing legal and political battles in a charged climate.
