Description

This editorial did not directly mention Mansfield and the events that unfolded there, but it gave insight into how some blacks viewed the integration battle, as a battle between the state and the nation. Referencing slavery and the secession of the southern states, this article correlated the struggle for integration with the Civil War. It showed that the black community understood that a show of power from the federal government was what it would take for white segregationist to finally integrate.
