Oktober 1877 in Juniper Grove, Pearl River County, Mississippi; 21. August 1947 in New Orleans, Louisiana) war ein US-amerikanischer Politiker der Demokratischen Partei. Zweimal (von 1916 bis 1920, von 1928 bis 1932) war er Gouverneur und von 1935 bis 1947 Senator des Bundesstaates Mississippi. The Man wie er von seinen Anhängern genannt wurde war ein begnadeter Demagoge, der, unbelehrbar von der White Supremacy (der Überlegenheit der weißen Rasse ) durchdrungen, seine eindeutig rassistischen Ansichten in Reden, Gesetzesanträgen, auch literarischen Erzeugnissen, zum Ausdruck brachte. Theodore Bilbo wurde 1877 als Sohn von James Oliver Bilbo und dessen Frau Beedy (geb. Wallace) auf einer kleinen Farm in Juniper Grove, einem Dörfchen nahe Poplarville, geboren. Bilbo wuchs mit sieben Geschwistern in den allerärmsten Verhältnissen auf. Um den Collegebesuch und später sein Studium zu finanzieren,... Read Gouverneur (Mississippi) : Theodore G.

    John Marshall Stone Papers, 1899-1900 PP-002 1 Mississippi State University Libraries Presidential Papers Accession # PP-002 Date 2016 Collection John Marshall Stone Papers Donor Size .3 linear feet Restrictions None Location: Presidential Papers, Drawer 1A John Marshall Stone, 1899-1900 Bio/History Note John Marshall Stone was born on April 30, 1830 in Milan, Tennessee. He did not attend college, but did educate himself enough to become a school teacher in Tennessee. In 1855, Stone moved to Eastport, Mississippi, where he served as the station agent for the Mississippi and Ohio Railroad at Iuka. Upon the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861, he joined the Army of the Confederate States of America in April and fought in several major battles, including “Sharpsburg” (Antietam) in Maryland, “The Battle of Wilderness” in Spotsylvania County, Virginia, and “Gettysburg” in Pennsylvania. In 1865, he was dispatched to Mississippi to round up absentees and deserters, and was eventually captured during a fight in Salisbury, North Carolina while trying to return to his command. He was sent to Johnson’s Island, Ohio and then released on July 25, 1865. After the war, he returned to his position as station agent for the M. & O. Railroad, and was later elected mayor and treasurer of Tishomingo County, eventually serving in the Mississippi State Senate. Stone is the longest serving governor in Mississippi history with two terms – 1876 to 1882, and again from 1890 to 1892. When Governor Ames resigned in John Marshall Stone Papers, 1899-1900 PP-002 2 1876, Stone was made President Pro Tempore, or acting governor, of the Mississippi Senate.

  • William F. Winter and the Politics of Racial Moderation in Mississippi
    WILLIAM WINTER AND THE POLITICS OF RACIAL MODERATION 335 William F. Winter and the Politics of Racial Moderation in Mississippi by Charles C. Bolton On May 12, 2008, William F. Winter received the Profile in Courage Award from the John F. Kennedy Foundation, which honored the former Mississippi governor for “championing public education and racial equality.” The award was certainly well deserved and highlighted two important legacies of one of Mississippi’s most important public servants in the post–World War II era. During Senator Edward M. Kennedy’s presentation of the award, he noted that Winter had been criticized “for his integrationist stances” that led to his defeat in the gubernatorial campaign of 1967. Although Winter’s opponents that year certainly tried to paint him as a moderate (or worse yet, a liberal) and as less than a true believer in racial segregation, he would be the first to admit that he did not advocate racial integration in 1967; indeed, much to his regret later, Winter actually pandered to white segregationists in a vain attempt to win the election. Because Winter, over the course of his long career, has increasingly become identified as a champion of racial justice, it is easy, as Senator Kennedy’s remarks illustrate, to flatten the complexity of Winter’s evolution on the issue CHARLES C. BOLTON is the guest editor of this special edition of the Journal of Mississippi History focusing on the career of William F. Winter. He is profes- sor and head of the history department at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.

  • The Voting Rights Act and Mississippi: 1965–2006
    THE VOTING RIGHTS ACT AND MISSISSIPPI: 1965–2006 ROBERT MCDUFF* INTRODUCTION Mississippi is the poorest state in the union. Its population is 36% black, the highest of any of the fifty states.1 Resistance to the civil rights movement was as bitter and violent there as anywhere. State and local of- ficials frequently erected obstacles to prevent black people from voting, and those obstacles were a centerpiece of the evidence presented to Con- gress to support passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965.2 After the Act was passed, Mississippi’s government worked hard to undermine it. In its 1966 session, the state legislature changed a number of the voting laws to limit the influence of the newly enfranchised black voters, and Mississippi officials refused to submit those changes for preclearance as required by Section 5 of the Act.3 Black citizens filed a court challenge to several of those provisions, leading to the U.S. Supreme Court’s watershed 1969 de- cision in Allen v. State Board of Elections, which held that the state could not implement the provisions, unless they were approved under Section 5.4 Dramatic changes have occurred since then. Mississippi has the high- est number of black elected officials in the country. One of its four mem- bers in the U.S. House of Representatives is black. Twenty-seven percent of the members of the state legislature are black. Many of the local gov- ernmental bodies are integrated, and 31% of the members of the county governing boards, known as boards of supervisors, are black.5 * Civil rights and voting rights lawyer in Mississippi.

A Message from the Executive Director and Board Chairman orth Mississippi Rural Legal Services, N Inc. (NMRLS) celebrated fiy years of providing legal assistance in 2016. The theme for the 50th Anniversary Celebraon was “NMRLS: The Quest for Jusce in Mississippi”. During the year, we presented special events to reflect on the Ben Thomas Cole, II, Esq. Willie J. Perkins, Sr., Esq. programs and significant ligaon which earned Executive Director Board Chairman us a renowned reputaon for aggressive legal advocacy in pursuit of remedies for the vulnerable populaon we served. Three special events were held during the year: The 50th Anniversary Kick‐Off, NMRLS Historic Ligaon Conference and the Quest for Jusce Gala. These events were designed to: Create awareness of NMRLS’ history and successes; Forge partnerships with businesses, corporaons, schools and friends; Raise funds to implement current and future programs for the commu- nies we serve; and Reconnect past and present NMRLS staff, board members, clients, aorneys and others. NMRLS achieved many successes and withstood many challenges over fiy years. The survival of our organizaon can be aributed to the vision and fortude of board members and staff who relied upon God to direct their efforts to improve the quality of life for their fellow Mississippians. Many of these heroes and others, who fought for equal jusce under the law, were recognized for their work during the Anni- versary’s special events.

  • David Bowen Interview Oral History Program Congressional and Political Research Center at Mississippi State University
    David Bowen Interview Oral History Program Congressional and Political Research Center at Mississippi State University This is an interview with former Congressman David Bowen on July 10, 2001at his home in Jackson, Mississippi at 75 Eastbrook. I am Mike Ballard, coordinator of Congressional and Political Research Center at Mississippi State University. DR. BALLARD: I know you were born in Chickasaw County and grew up MR. BOWEN: Well, I got into politics by accident. As it were, I happened to be born in Chickasaw County because my mother was from Monroe County and my father was an appraiser for the Federal Land Bank. And which was one of those agencies created to do something about the great agricultural depressions, off and on, of the twentieth century starting in the twenties and into the thirties. He was training there and so I happened to be born there but I was only there for a few months before my family moved to Cleveland, Mississippi, in the Delta, which was a place appropriately located for farm appraisers. My father bought a farm there and he also owned a farm where he was raised, up between Holly Springs and Senatobia, Tate and Marshall Counties in North Mississippi. So he was a farmer by background. He went to Mississippi State and had an agricultural degree from there but rather than farm he ended up in farm appraising so he farmed on the side, owned two farms, one we bought in Boliver County and the one we owned up in North Mississippi in Tate and Marshall Counties.
