Lloyd Gaines and the Fight to End Segregation

Beschreibung

80 years ago, Lloyd Gaines's application to the University of Missouri law school was denied based on his race. Gaines and the NAACP challenged the university's decision. This is the first book to focus entirely on the Gaines case and the vital role played by the NAACP and its lawyers, including Charles Houston, known as "the man who killed Jim Crow”.
