Coverage
"Howard Tolley '65... remarked, 'if we felt fear in two days, you can imagine how the Negroes feel living there all the time.' He was particularly struck by the attitude of the police: 'In the North, we're used to just depending on the police,' but he commented that in the South the police cannot be regarded in the same manner."
"Sit-ins, swim-ins, walk-ins are not beneficial but that mass demonstrations prove something to the nation which badly needs to be."
