  • Mississippi-State of the Union

    Mississippi-State of the Union

    MISSISSIPPI-STATE OF THE UNION DURING THE PAST several years in which the struggle for human rights rights in our country has reached a crescendo level, the state of ~ississippi has periodically been a focal point of national interest. The murder of young Emmett Till, the lynching of Charles Mack Parker in the "moderate" Gulf section of Mississippi, the "freedom rides" to Jackson, the events at Oxford, Mississippi, and the triple lynching of the martyred Civil Rights workers, Chaney, Schwerner and Goodman, have, figuratively, imprinted Mississippi on the national conscience. In response to the national concern arising from such events, most writings about Mississippi have been in the nature of reporting, with emotional appeal and shock-value being the chief characteristics of such writing. FREEDOMWAYS is publishing this special issue on Mississippi to fill a need both for the Freedom Movement and the country. The need is for an in-depth analysis of Mississippi; of the political, economic and cultural factors which have historically served to institutionalize racism in this state. The purpose of such an analysis is perhaps best expressed in the theme that we have chosen: "Opening Up the Closed Society"; the purpose being to provide new insights rather than merely repeating well-known facts about Mississippi. The shock and embarrassment which events in Mississippi have sometimes caused the nation has also led to the popular notion that Mississippi is some kind of oddity, a freak in the American scheme-of-things. How many Civil Rights demonstrations have seen signs proclaiming-"bring Mississippi back into the Union." This is a well-intentioned but misleading slogan.

NO. 2:65-CV-31-DMB BOLIVAR COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION, et al. DEFENDANTS OPINION AND ORDER On May 17, 1954, the United States Supreme Court issued the landmark decision of Brown v. Board of Education, holding that “in the field of public education the doctrine of ‘separate but equal’ has no place.” 347 U.S. 483, 495 (1954) (“Brown I”). A year later, on May 31, 1955, the Supreme Court issued a second order directing compliance with Brown I “with all deliberate speed.” Brown v. Bd. of Educ., 349 U.S. 294, 301 (1955) (“Brown II”). Ten years after Brown II, residents of Bolivar County, Mississippi, filed this now fifty-year-old action seeking the desegregation of their school system. After decades of litigation, this case is currently before the Court for the determination of an appropriate desegregation remedy for the high schools and middle schools in the Cleveland School District (“District”) in Bolivar County. Case: 2:65-cv-00031-DMB-JMV Doc #: 215 Filed: 05/13/16 2 of 96 PageID #: 4393 Upon consideration of the parties’ proposed desegregation plans, the Court concludes that, in order to achieve constitutionally-required desegregation, the District must consolidate its high schools and must consolidate its middle schools.
  • Mississippi Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan 2020 Mrepp

    Mississippi Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan 2020 Mrepp

    MISSISSIPPI RADIOLOGICAL EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS PLAN 2020 MREPP Mississippi Emergency Management Agency, Office of Response and Radiological Emergency Preparedness October 2020 2020 MREPP This page left blank intentionally. ii 01 October 2020 2020 MREPP Promulgation Statement Transmitted herewith is the revised Mississippi Radiological Emergency Preparedness Plan (MREPP). This plan supersedes all previous plans and may not be reproduced without prior authorization. It provides a framework for structuring and planning State and Local Civil Defense/Emergency Management offsite emergency response to radiological emergencies. Inherent in the issuance of this plan, as an integral part of the Mississippi Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan, is recognition of the interrelationship between radiological emergency preparedness planning and other emergency planning. The State's overall emergency planning effort is based on the premise that similarities among the various emergencies, which threaten the public, require maximum standardization of procedures and practices to the extent possible. The State also recognizes the dynamics associated with planning and, consequently, plan upgrading will be accomplished at least annually, and in the ultimate will be a continuing process with the objective of protection of the people from personal injury or loss of life and mitigation of damage or loss of property resulting from radiological emergencies. By virtue of the authority vested in me, by the Constitution of Mississippi and Title 33, Chapter 15, Mississippi Code of 1972, as amended, I hereby promulgate and issue the MREPP as the official guidance of all concerned. It is in the opinion of the State, the plans/procedures are adequate to protect the health and safety of its citizens by providing reasonable assurance that state, local, and tribal governments can and intend to effect appropriate protective measures offsite in the event of a radiological emergency (44 CFR 350.7(d)).
