Forthcoming NAACP events on campus

Description

This Bucknellian article from October 1956 addresses the first meeting of NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) of the semester that discussed possible plans for the coming year, hoping to focus on bringing black educators, entertainers, and professionals to campus as well as to encourage positive race relations. The author cites the past year’s issue with visiting speaker, Mr. Robinson from “Ebony Magazine,” who was kicked out of a Lewisburg bar due to his race, stating that they have to find a way to make sure that never happens again.
