This law will ensure them the right to vote. The wrong is one which no American, in his heart, can justify. The right is one which no American, true to our principles, can deny.' President Lyndon B. Johnson August 6, 1965 Probably the "most important civil rights bill [ever] enacted by Con- gress,"2 the Voting Rights Act of 19651 marked the "end of the beginning"' in the drive for black access to the ballot box. The Act was, and following the enactment of the 1982 amendments still is, a complex statute. The temporary provisions apply principally to Southern States, and the per- manent provisions affect voting practices throughout the country.5 First amended in 1970,' then again in 1975,' the Act underwent a dramatic substantive transformation in June of 1982.'

  • Mclemore Preliminary Pages DISSERTATION NOVEMBER 2012
    The Second Reconstruction in Local Politics: Alabama Grassroots Activists Fulfilling the Promise of the Voting Rights Act, 1960-1990 by Lawrence Underwood McLemore A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama December 8, 2012 Keywords: Voting Rights Act, political activists, black suffrage, Alabama, Alabama Democratic Conference Copyright 2012 by Lawrence Underwood McLemore Approved by David C. Carter, Chair, Associate Professor of History Charles A. Israel, Associate Professor of History Kelly Kennington, Assistant Professor of History Abstract In arguing that historians expand the timeline for what is considered the modern civil rights movement, this dissertation examines how grassroots Alabama activists affiliated with the Alabama Democratic Conference carried the struggle for political equality forward on the local level after the enactment of the Voting Rights Act in 1965. This dissertation also argues that Alabama voting rights activists understood that change begins at the local level, and employed the Voting Rights Act in dismantling a variety of racially discriminatory laws and customs that governed political and electoral practices in their state. Many narratives of civil rights struggles have focused on national figures and institutions, such as Dr. Martin Luther King, President Johnson, the Congress, and the U.S. Supreme Court. This dissertation focuses, instead, on the local citizen-activists in Alabama who won hard-fought victories in voting rights by collaborating and utilizing connections with powerful leaders and institutions. Between 1960 and 1990, Alabama Democratic Conference activists succeeded in enfranchising most black citizens of Alabama. In the process, these political activists transformed Alabama’s politics and the state electorate.

FIFTY YEARS OF CHALLENGES TO THE COLORLINE MONTGOMERY, ALABAMA by ALISON L. MURPHY Under the Direction of Timothy Crimmins ABSTRACT After fifty years of challenges to the color line in Montgomery, Alabama, the Metropolitan Statistical Area is more integrated now than it was in 1950. Through exploring the effects of Brown v. Board of Education, the bus boycott, school integration court cases, re-segregation of schools in city and suburban districts, and federal open-housing policies, the volatile transformation appears to shows how, after fifty years, Montgomery has moved from a segregated dual society to a partially integrated society in spite of the massive resistance to integration. INDEX WORDS: Montgomery, Alabama, Integration, Desegregation, Federal Housing Policy, Fair Housing Act, Central Alabama Fair Housing Center, School integration, Dual school system, Unitary school system FIFTY YEARS OF CHALLENGES TO THE COLORLINE MONTGOMERY, ALABAMA by ALISON L.
