- Description:
- This article by Donald W. Patterson appeared in the February 23, 1990 Greensboro News & Record and reports on an upcoming investigation of racism within North Carolina schools and colleges. Citing several recent incidents, including a walkout at Page High School in Greensboro over remarks published in the school newspaper, the N.C. Advisory Committee to the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights planned to review race relations in schools statewide. Educators noted that tolerance and racial attitudes were not changing as they had in recent decades. This article was clipped and saved in a scrapbook on race relations in Greensboro by Clarence "Curly" Harris, manager of the Greensboro Woolworth store at the time of the 1960 sit-ins.
