Baker reflects on how his identity as a black gay man influenced his social activism, especially his role in the 1960s civil rights protests. He begins by describing his childhood in the segregated South, noting that he had little contact with whites while growing up. He knew at a young age that he was different from most other boys, as did his father, who tried to make him adopt a more traditional masculine identity. After graduating from high school, Baker enrolled at North Carolina Central University, where he became active in civil rights protests. He also taught nonviolent protest in Chapel Hill, where he befriended Pat Cusick and John Dunne, two student activists. A short time later, Baker began a sexual relationship with Dunne. Baker hoped to find acceptance within the white gay community, but he says that race affected those relationships, as well. Baker was arrested multiple times during the Chapel Hill protests, and the judge, who was frustrated by how little prison time he could give the students, used court time to further punish the activists. Baker and Dunne ended their relationship before going to prison. The few months Baker spent in prison changed his life's trajectory. He eventually graduated from the University of Wisconsin. After living in Boston for a while, Baker decided to return to North Carolina, where he became involved in community affairs again. At the time of the interview, he continued to fight for social justice in the arena of health care.","The Civil Rights Digital Library received support from a National Leadership Grant for Libraries awarded to the University of Georgia by the Institute of Museum and Library Services for the aggregation and enhancement of partner metadata."],"dc_format":["text/html","text/xml","audio/mpeg"],"dcterms_identifier":null,"dcterms_language":["eng"],"dcterms_publisher":null,"dc_relation":["Forms part of Oral histories of the American South collection."],"dc_right":["http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"dcterms_is_part_of":null,"dcterms_subject":["African American civil rights workers--North Carolina--Chapel Hill","African American gay men--North Carolina--Chapel Hill","Civil rights movements--North Carolina--Chapel Hill","African Americans--Civil rights--North Carolina--Chapel Hill","Chapel Hill (N.C.)--Race relations","Gay college students--North Carolina--Chapel Hill--Political activity","Heterosexism--United States"],"dcterms_title":["Oral history interview with Quinton E.

I granted that request. During a telephone conference held on February 12, 2002, the State of Arkansas (State) and the Knight Intervenors (Knight) asked to be included in those mediation discussions. In response to this request, the Joshua lntervenors suggested that initial discussions take place between LRSD and Joshua, and that other parties be brought in only ifLRSD and Joshua come to a tentative agreement. Lawyers for all parties understand, of course, that any agreement between LRSD and Joshua would be binding only on those two parties, and that any agreement is subject to Court approval. 02/1 3/ 2002 14:26 50160451 37 USDC PAGE 02/02 With those limits in mind, I will permit LRSD and Joshua to pursue settlement discussions between themselves. If those two parties reach agreement, and if that agreement materially affects any other party in the case, then that party would then be brought in to the settlement talks. For the present, however, LRSD and Joshua may proceed with settlement talks without the presence of lawyers for other parties in the case. Counsel for Knight orally asked that the Knight Motion to Compel PCS SD Compliance with Plan 2000, Section F (Discipline) (docket entry# 3526) be held in abeyance. That oral motion is GRANTED. I will decide Pulaski County Special School District's Motion for Approval of Middle School Site (docket entry # 3562) on or before Friday, February 22, 2002. Any additional briefs or information on this motion should be fil~/tore 2:00 p.m,, Wednesday, February 12, 2002. IT IS SO ORDERED this } '},} day of February, 2002. 2 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS WESTERN DMSION UTILE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT, * Plaintiff, * vs. * PULASKI COUNTY SPECIAL SCHOOL * DISTRICT NO. 1, et al., * Defendants, * MRS. LORENE JOSHUA, et al., Intervenors, KATIIERINE KNIGHT, et al., Intervenors. * * ORDER No. 4:82CV00866 WRW t-'AGE 02 The Pulaski County Special School District (PCSSD) has moved for approval of a middle school site (docket entry# 3562). Specifically PCSSD, \"seeks a determination by this Court that Plan 200 authorizes the construction of a new middle school within the city limits of the Town of Maumelle.\" The Joshua Intervenors oppose the motion on two grounds: first, that there is no justification for a new school anywhere in Pulaski County at this time; and second, that PCS SD is, in truth, requesting an advisory opinion from the Court. Of course, advisory opinions are not permissible in these circumstances. (They are rarely, if ever, proper in federal litigation.) It is undeTstatem.ent to say that this Court is not writing on a blank slate in this case. The case was filed almost twenty years ago, and the opinions of the Court of Appeals, as well as the - - -------- - - - U.J.LI\\.,, various agreements of the parties are binding, not only the parties, but upon this Court. PCSSD's - current desegregation plan, Pulaski County Special School District Plan 2000 (Plan 2000), was approved March 20, 2000. It is, thus, Plan 2000 which not only guides, but controls. Plan 2000 states, in pertinent part: \"An elementary school, located around 145th Street, and a middle school or junior high school in the Crystal Hill/Maumelle area will be built. The Board will address the development of a plan for new school construction during the term of this Plan if funds are sufficient, including its funding, and report its conclusions not later than 150 days after the court's approval of this Plan. Moreover, the PCSSD shall not close schools which are located in predominantly African-American areas absent reasons of compelling necessity (which does not include the opposition of white patrons to attending such schools).\" PCSSD Plan 2000H(2). PCSSD concedes that it has not done required planning for a Maumelle school, but rather is waiting to \"[obtain] the Court's views upon the matter [of whether Plan 2000 pennits construction of a new school within Maumelle town limits) .. .. \" PCS SD directly asks this Court: \"May (the PCSSD] explore and ultimately propose to this Court a middle school site located within the city limits of Maumelle'?\" I am inclined to agree with the Joshua Intervenors that what PCSSD seeks is an advisory opinion on the suitability of a yet-to-be-selected site for a new middle school. The PCS SD is, of course, free to \"explore\" and \"propose\" construction of a new school in Maumelle, or anywhere else. I fmd nothing in Plan 2000 which categorically rules out a school within Maumelle town limits. On the other hand, court approval of a specific site at this stage would be inappropriate. The query posed is theoretical, and does not go to an actual controversy before this Court. I will consider a t 2 r-1-\\Ut:. t:Jq motion for approval of a new school site when the issue is ripe; that is, after the PCS SD has done - the study, consultation, and analysis required by Plan 2000 and prior court orders. 1 Accordingly, the Motion for Approval of a Middle School Site is denied without prejudice; it is not yet ripe for decision. DATED this ___,r-''--- day of February, 2002. UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE 1PCSSD's memorandum in support of its motion specifically notes that as of December 13, 2001 , \"[the] PCSSD has not yet consulted the administrations of the Little Rock and North Little Rock School Districts, the PCSSD has not yet submitted a proposed site to its bi-racial committee for consideration, no specific site has been finalized and no recent public meetings have been held in the Maumelle and Oak Grove Communities, the District has yet to form a site selection bi-racial committee which include(sJ representative of the LRSD, the NLRSD and the Joshua Intervenors, and the [Office of Desegregation Monitoring] has not yet been specifically consulted concerning a specific site.\" On Wednesday, February 13, 2002, cowisel for the PCSSD notified the Court that since the Motion for Approval was filed, the PCSSD has conducted community forums in Maumelle and in the Crystal Hill area. 3 Fax 3 f- J - 01 07) lo ; HrVJJ ~ , u/)/41 fri ; )~ ~ ~ -- a J:JuJv ~ ~ {),,,___~ 3/tq /o-z- .

I have studied the desegregation plans of the school districts, and previous court orders, but there may be other agreements or understandings between or among various parties which affect the resolution of this case. It is important that we all proceed on the same premises, and that all parties understand the obligations and promises of all other parties in the case. Within thirty days of the date of this order, each party must submit to me complete copies of all its agreements with any other party to the case, - whether previously filed or not, which touch on matters relating to the desegregation plans of any 577 - of the three school districts in this case. This is required regardless of the number of parties to an agreement. By \"parties,\" I mean: Little Rock School District, Pulaski County Special School District, North Little Rock School District, State of Arkansas, Joshua Intervenors, and Knight Intervenors. \"Relating to desegregation plans\" includes, but is not limited to, issues surrounding unitary status. If an agreement or understanding relating to desegregation plans has not yet been reduced to writing, but a party believes that it is ( or may be) binding on another party, then all material terms of that agreement or understanding must be summarized in writing and submitted to me. This Order pertains to agreements between or among the parties (and not, for example, a contract with a bus company). Obviously, I already have copies of court-approved desegregation plans, so it is not necessary to include the plans themselves in your submissions. Collective bargaining agreements (and individual contracts between teachers and school districts) are exempt - from this Order, at least for the time being. If there are agreements that a party or parties believe are not covered by this Order, a fair, accurate, and brief summary of those agreements must be submitted along with the copies of the agreements which are produced.

LORENE JOSHUA, ET AL KATHERINE KNIGHT, ET AL MOTION FOR AN IMMEDIATE DECLARATION OF UNITARY STATUS Plaintiff Little Rock School District (\"LRSD\") for its Motion for an Immediate Declaration of Unitary Status states: 1. The LRSD moves for an immediate declaration of unitary status and an end to court supervision based on its substantial compliance with the Revised Plan in accordance with Revised Plan 11, which provides: At the conclusion of the 2000-01 school year, the district court shall enter an order releasing LRSD from court supervision and finding LRSD unitary with regard to all aspects of school operations provided that LRSD has substantially complied with its obligations set forth in this Revised Plan. In anticipation of release, LRSD shall issue a report on March 15, 2001 indicating the state ofLRSD's compliance with the Revised Plan. Any party challenging LRSD's compliance bears the burden of proof. If no party challenges LRSD's compliance, the abovedescribed order shall be entered without further proceedings. 2. The LRSD reported on March 15, 2001, that it had substantially complied with the Revised Plan. See Docket No. 3410. 3. The Joshua Intervenors (\"Joshua\") challenged the LRSD's compliance with a limited number of Revised Plan sections. See Docket No. 3447. 4. In proceedings before the Honorable Susan Webber Wright, the Court heard five and one-half days of testimony and received 201 exhibits on the Revised Plan sections covering academic ~-~-l;rievement ( 2.7), program assessment( 2.7.1) and student discipline( 2.5 - 2.5.4). The LRSD should be granted unitary status with regard to these Revised Plan sections based on the record of those proceedings. Joshua failed to come forward with any evidence that the LRSD failed to comply with those sections or that would cast doubt on the LRSD's intent to comply with the Constitution in the future absent court supervision. 5. Additionally, the LRSD should be granted summary judgment as to all remaining Revised Plan sections with which Joshua challenged the LRSD's compliance. The discovery process revealed that Joshua has no evidence that would cast doubt on the LRSD's intent to comply with the Constitution in the future absent court supervision. As a result, there are no material factual disputes, and additional hearings are unnecessary. 6. Finally, the LRSD should be granted unitary status with regard to those Revised Plan sections to which no party filed a timely challenge to the LRSD's compliance. See Revised Plan 11. 7. The accompanying brief and the attached exhibits are hereby incorporated by reference. - WHEREFORE, the LRSD prays that an Order be entered without further evidentiary hearings granting the LRSD unitary status and releasing the LRSD from court supervision and that it be awarded all other just and proper relief to which it may be entitled.

He describes in greater detail his work as a reporter covering the Briggs v. State of South Carolina desegregation case. In addition, he discusses more fully the impact of the Brown decision (and the eventual demise of legal Jim Crow segregation) on African American businesses. Rivera also describes his favorite photographs from this time period. Finally, Rivera talks about his work at North Carolina Central College in the late 1960s and 1970s. He describes how he was able to bring Gerald Ford to speak at the school's fiftieth anniversary celebration and the impact of desegregation on the school's academics and athletics.","The Civil Rights Digital Library received support from a National Leadership Grant for Libraries awarded to the University of Georgia by the Institute of Museum and Library Services for the aggregation and enhancement of partner metadata."],"dc_format":["text/html","text/xml","audio/mpeg"],"dcterms_identifier":null,"dcterms_language":["eng"],"dcterms_publisher":null,"dc_relation":["Forms part of Oral histories of the American South collection."],"dc_right":["http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"dcterms_is_part_of":null,"dcterms_subject":["African American journalists","Segregation in education--Law and legislation--United States","North Carolina Central University","African American business enterprises","Photojournalists--Southern States--Interviews","African Americans--Civil rights--Southern States","African Americans--Segregation","Southern States--Race relations","Crime and the press--Southern States","Lynching--Southern State"],"dcterms_title":["Oral history interview with Alexander M.

At the age of twenty-one, Brightfeather first met another transgender person and subsequently became involved in a small but thriving transgender community. Brightfeather had known from an early age that she was transgender. She speaks in great detail about being transgender and describes variations of transgenderism, including cross-dressing, fetishism, transsexuality, and intersexuality. In so doing, she argues emphatically that gender, not sexuality, is the primary issue for transgender people. In order to illustrate that point, Brightfeather explains that she does not necessarily feel that she is male or female, but rather that she is a third gender. Brightfeather describes how her transgender identity operated in her personal life, explaining how her first marriage eventually ended after she came out to her wife as a cross-dresser. In describing that relationship, Brightfeather also discusses what it was like to be a single parent and how her experiences in parenting allowed her to better understand her feminine side. Brightfeather eventually remarried and explains that her second wife was supportive of her transgender identity. Much of Brightfeather's discussion focuses on her experiences as a transgender person living in Syracuse, where she lived until 1999, when she moved to North Carolina to pursue better opportunities for her commercial plumbing business. Before moving south, Brightfeather became a vocal activist for transgender issues, helping to found Expressing Our Nature (EON), a transgender group. Shortly before she left New York, Brightfeather and EON were disappointed when the Stonewall Committee in their county refused to include transgender people in their proposed Human Rights Law. Brightfeather uses that experience as evidence of what she sees as divisions and tensions within the GLBT community, particularly between transgender people and gays and lesbians. Brightfeather strongly believes that the GLBT community must work closely to attain political and social equality for GLBT people. She explains how she has worked toward that end, especially after moving to North Carolina, where the need for transgender activism seemed especially strong to her. After drawing comparisons between the experiences of transgender people and their role within the GLBT communities in the North and the South, Brightfeather discusses her activist work in the state, focusing on her interactions with Equality North Carolina and the Human Rights Committee. Finally, Brightfeather's interview addresses the longer history of transgender people, particularly as it touches Native American history and spirituality.","The Civil Rights Digital Library received support from a National Leadership Grant for Libraries awarded to the University of Georgia by the Institute of Museum and Library Services for the aggregation and enhancement of partner metadata."],"dc_format":["text/html","text/xml","audio/mpeg"],"dcterms_identifier":null,"dcterms_language":["eng"],"dcterms_publisher":null,"dc_relation":["Forms part of Oral histories of the American South collection."],"dc_right":["http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"dcterms_is_part_of":null,"dcterms_subject":["Transgender people--United States","Transgender people--Identity","Transgender people--United States--Political activity","Transgender people--North Carolina--Political activity","Gay liberation movement--United States","Transgender people--Family relationships--United States"],"dcterms_title":["Oral history interview with Angela Brightfeather, January 24, 2002"],"dcterms_type":["Text","Sound"],"dcterms_provenance":["University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Edwards begins the interview with some brief explanations of her family's tasks as sharecroppers and her experiences with segregation and racism in Ayden. Edwards explains that religion and church were central to both her family and the community. She grew up Baptist but converted to the Pentecostal Holiness Church after becoming an adult and marrying at the age of nineteen. By the 1990s, Edwards had become disillusioned with Pentecostalism, primarily because after seeking counsel from her pastor as a victim of domestic abuse, she was advised to stay with her husband because she had taken a vow to do so. In 1998, Edwards converted to Mormonism, and the majority of the interview is devoted to a discussion of her thoughts on the Mormon church and her role within it as an African American woman. Edwards explains that she found Mormonism appealing because the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints (the formal name of the Mormon church) was accepting of her, and she appreciated the centrality of family to their doctrines. Edwards speaks at some length about her desire to eventually remarry (having since divorced her abusive husband). When asked if it was important for her to marry an African American man, Edwards explains that while she would find it most ideal to marry a man who was both African American and Mormon, her faith trumped her racial preference. She explains that the Mormon church shared her belief that interracial marriage between two Mormons was preferable to interdenominational marriage between people of the same race. Edwards addresses gender hierarchies within the Mormon church, arguing that although she had enjoyed a more active role she was able to play in the Pentecostal Holiness Church as an ordained minister, she did not begrudge the limited role of women in the Mormon church and did not view it as an encroachment on her independence. In addition to charting such intersections of race, gender, and religion in the Mormon church, Edwards discusses tensions she had experienced between the Mormons and other Judeo-Christian religions throughout the South. While her children did not share her Mormon faith, they were ultimately accepting of her choice. Others, however, were less tolerant, and she describes various ways in which other churches and faiths found themselves at odds with the rapidly growing Mormon presence in the South.","The Civil Rights Digital Library received support from a National Leadership Grant for Libraries awarded to the University of Georgia by the Institute of Museum and Library Services for the aggregation and enhancement of partner metadata."],"dc_format":["text/html","text/xml","audio/mpeg"],"dcterms_identifier":null,"dcterms_language":["eng"],"dcterms_publisher":null,"dc_relation":["Forms part of Oral histories of the American South collection."],"dc_right":["http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"dcterms_is_part_of":null,"dcterms_subject":["Mormon women--North Carolina--Cary","African American Mormons--North Carolina--Cary","African American Mormons--Religious life--North Carolina--Cary","Mormon Church--Customs and practices","Women in the Mormon Church--North Carolina--Cary","Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints"],"dcterms_title":["Oral history interview with Margaret Edwards, January 20, 2002"],"dcterms_type":["Text","Sound"],"dcterms_provenance":["University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
