Martin Luther King, Sr., pastor of Ebeneezer Baptist Church in Atlanta and father of slain Civil Rights activist Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Friday night, at First Baptist Church, Sheffield and Mt. Moriah Primitive Baptist Church in Florence. In his speeches Rev. Dr. King noted that \"America is being destroyed by hate\" and that \"the Communist World has a cocked gun pointed at us and we won't learn the lesson of brotherhood.\" Turning to politics, King noted that blacks had \"called the bluff\" of politicians like Georgia Governor Lester Maddox and former Alabama Governor George Wallace and suggested that recent attempts by such politicians to to pass Freedom of Choice laws in those states was futile, as federal courts were in no mood to back down from integration just because state laws were changed. Waxing more optimistic, Rev. Dr. King expressed his belief that blacks would be aided by young whites in ending the climate of hate and suspicion, yet cautioned that black youth of the 1970s were uninterested in patterning themselves after white America. Significantly King reminded his audiences that \"there is no white gospel or black Bible\" and singling out a group of white newsmen reassured them that \"I am your brother, whether you like it or not.\""],"dc_format":["image/jpeg"],"dcterms_identifier":null,"dcterms_language":["eng"],"dcterms_publisher":["Newspapers.com"],"dc_relation":null,"dc_right":["http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"dcterms_is_part_of":["*Florence Times-Tri-Cities Daily,* Saturday, February 28, 1970, pp. 1, 2."],"dcterms_subject":["Civil rights--Alabama--Florence"],"dcterms_title":["King Full of Hope, Despair"],"dcterms_type":["StillImage","Text"],"dcterms_provenance":["Shoals Black History"],"edm_is_shown_by":null,"edm_is_shown_at":["https://shoalsblackhistory.omeka.net/items/show/870"],"dcterms_temporal":null,"dcterms_rights_holder":null,"dcterms_bibliographic_citation":null,"dlg_local_right":["Images are available for educational and research purposes.

Gunn, FSC's first black student, transferred to FSC from Tennessee State Agricultural and Industrial University at Nashville with a B average. Wendell Gunn formally applied for admission to Florence State on July 29, 1963 but was turned down by President Ethelbert B. \"EB\" Norton on the grounds that state law didn't give him the authority to enroll black students at that time however US District Court Judge HH Grooms ordered Gunn's enrollment on August 28 and Norton and FSC officials immediately complied, vowing that Gunn would be treated no differently than any other student at the school. For his part Gunn was represented by noted civil rights attorney Fred Gray, who later said of Gunn's case that it was “the easiest civil rights case I ever had.” Reporting on Gunn's registration, on September 10, the *Tri-Cities Daily* stated: \"Campus observers said today that the attitude and atmosphere at the college this week and last week appears to be no different from that experienced during any previous Fall. Attitude of college authorities and faculty members appear the same.\" On September 19 the *Florence Herald* reported that: \"Gunn walked freely over the campus the first day but was escorted to his classes by college officials. Student reaction thus far has been indifferent and Gunn has suffered no harassment.\" Two years later the Award to the Outstanding Student in Physics (highest average) went to Wilkie Gunn to a standing ovation from students and faculty. Wendell Gunn graduated from Florence State in 1965 with a BA in Chemistry and Mathematics. Also in 1965 Gunn was accepted into the national honorary mathematics fraternity Kappa Mu Epsilon. Upon graduation he was employed by the Tennessee Pulp and Paper Co. in Counts, TN. After earning a master's in computers and finance at the University of Chicago in 1970 Gunn was hired as a marketing analyst for Chase Manhattan Bank in New York, and in 1972 he joined the faculty of Texas Southern University, Houston as instructor in marketing and finance. From 1982 to 1984 Gunn served in the Regan Administration as Special Assistant to the President for Policy Development, Gunn served as Assistant Director for Commerce and Trade within the Office of Policy Development. He also served as Executive Secretary of the Cabinet Council on Commerce and Trade. In 2017 Gunn returned to UNA as commencement speaker and in 2018 the Wendell Wilkie Gunn Commons was named in his honor.
