    (GA) dated in 1962: May 3, 10, 11, 17: June 7,8, 14, and 21, 1962. This lot of 8 original Pro-Segregationist newspapers contains coverage of the
    SOUTH's RESISTANCE to racial integration in the aftermath of the BROWN v BOARD OF EDUCATION US Supreme Court ruling eliminating "Jim Crow" laws in the South.
    Interesting view of the South's reaction to racial integration rulings by the US Supreme Court during the Civil Rights era of Martin Luther King, Jr.
    Massive resistance was a strategy declared by U.S. Senator Harry F. Byrd Sr. of Virginia along with his brother-in-law as the leader in the Virginia General Assembly, Democratic Delegate James M. Thomson of Alexandria, to unite white politicians and leaders in Virginia in a campaign of new state laws and policies to prevent public school desegregation, particularly after the Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court decision in 1954. Many schools, and even an entire school system, were shut down in 1958 and 1959 in attempts to block integration, before both the Virginia Supreme Court and a special three-judge panel of Federal District judges from the Eastern District of Virginia, sitting at Norfolk, declared those policies unconstitutional.
    Although most of the laws created to implement massive resistance were overturned by state and federal courts within a year, some aspects of the campaign against integrated public schools continued in Virginia and throughout the South for many more years.
