A Negro On a Southern School BoardA Quiet Victory!

As one man in Houston, Texas put it, “It seems if the school board won’t integrate the schools, the people are going to integrate the school board.” Not only was Mrs. Charles E. White the first Negro ever elected to public office in Houston . . . but she beat her opposition soundly. And more than half of her votes were cast by whites. What makes a woman do what she did . . . defy a

strong convention? Are the people of the South really as against integration in public schools as we are led to believe? Don’t miss this inspiring and timely article in October’s Good Housekeeping.
