Another Viewpoint: Black History Month

Subject

Bucknell column addresses Black History Month and the current state of America

Description

This column from a February 1952 issue of the Bucknellian shares the contributions of black historical figures to the cultural heritage of the U.S. then asks why segregation and discrimination persist 80 years after slavery has ended. The author pushes for contributions, in the form of membership, to the Bucknell NAACP chapter (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) in order to start healing the “defects of American society” that encourage the continuance of this unfair treatment.
