The goals of achieving equal citizenship rights for African
Americans and international respect for human rights inspired
Charles H. Thompson to focus his attention on ending segregation as
public policy in the United States. As editor of The Journal of
Negro Education, from 1932 to 1963, Thompson tirelessly championed
equal educational and economic opportunities for African Americans
and other targets of discrimination. Charles H. Thompson on
Desegregation, Democracy, and Education captures the evolving
struggle for civil rights from the perspective of an education
insider, brilliant scholar-activist, and arguably the leading dean
in African American higher education between 1938 and 1963. This
study focuses on Thompson's efforts, between 1953 and 1963, to
mobilize his readers, including African American teachers, to
support the civil rights movement including voter registration
drives, boycotts, the sit-ins, as well as the NAACP litigation
campaign. He encouraged them to support principled, African
American leaders such as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and their
campaigns for social justice. Thompson remained confident that they
and their allies would prevail so long as they adhered to the
ethical principles that informed their movement and applied
political and economic pressure intelligently. The desegregation of
public education and the strengthening of African American higher
education, for Thompson, served as wedges for extending democracy
in the US.
During a period when African-American education was at the
epicenter of the civil rights movement, Thompson's Journal
documented the rapid growth of educational discrimination in the
South despite significant increases in public school funding,
providing irrefutable evidence that racially segregated public
education was inherently discriminatory, hence, unconstitutional.
Between 1932 and 1954, Thompson's editorials provided a nuanced,
insider's account of one of the most successful policy research
ventures in American history: the movement to overturn racial
segregation as public policy, chronicling the rise during the
Depression, World War II and the postwar period of a policy
community committed to expanding human rights nationally and
internationally. A brilliant essayist, Thompson sought to close the
gap between America's democratic precepts and its undemocratic
practices by molding public opinion favorable to a significant
expansion of civil rights among scholars, policymakers and the
public. An expert witness in several landmark higher education
cases argued before the U. S. Supreme Court including Sipuel
(1948), Sweatt (1950) and McLaurin (1950), Thompson's editorials
provided an informed, eyewitness account of African-American
teachers' pivotal role in the NAACP litigation campaign culminating
in the landmark Brown et al v. Board of Education of Topeka et al
(1954) desegregation ruling. This is the first, full-length study
of Charles H. Thompson's contributions to American education and
the civil rights movement.
