Shaping the Negro Revolution Through Court Decisions, 1964-1966.

Gill, Robert L.

The Quarterly Review of Higher Education Among Negroes, v35 n1 p1-13 Jan 1967

In a two year period the Congress enacted a series of laws which had a profound effect on the Negro revolution. Discussed in this document are the cases which were brought to the Supreme Court to either challenge the constitutionality of these laws or to appeal for reversal of lower court decisions on the basis of the laws. Cited are cases based on the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and various constitutional amendments. (NH)
