- Description:
- Press release from the Voter Education Project regarding a survey of Black school board members in 10 southern states, which found that although Blacks were underrepresented on school boards, they were instrumental in fighting racism in their school districts. The survey also found that Black school board members were concerned about the discriminatory treatment of Black teachers and students, and that the effort to desegregate schools caused major problems.
