Last time I heard about black kids being denied use of a pool here in
Tallahassee was when I was a kid in 1966.


Reads as if the private swim club is in violation of the law. It should
be prosecuted.

As for Florida, if memory serves, it was still lynching blacks in the
1960s, right? And Mississippi, too.

I assume you can give a reference to such a lynching in the late 60s?
Wasn't there a rash of racial incidents in NJ, PA and NYC over black
kids being in "white" neighborhoods recently with the black kids being
beat up?
