The South Faces Integration and Its Far Reaching Challenge
A provocative essay argues that integration tests the South's way of life and fuels isolationism. It cites politicians from Virginia to Georgia, cites votes against civil rights and education bills, and urges educators and leaders to craft a new era of tolerance while warning of political and economic costs. It notes shifts in Southern press attitudes and calls for stronger educational leadership to guide desegregation. It ends by urging Southern educators to embrace responsibility in shaping future artisans and leaders.
