A few miles from the Tule Lake Segregation (internment) camp, Camp Tulelake was first built as a Civilian Conservation Corps camp. During WWII, the camp was used to imprison several hundred Japanese American men who protested and refused to answer the loyalty questionnaire. It was used again to house Japanese American strikebreakers brought in from other internment camps to harvest the crops that Tule Lake strikers were leveraging to demand better living and working conditions. Between 1944 and 1946 the camp housed German and Italian Prisoners of War who worked for local farmers.

Per the NBC29.com website:
"The train depot on the Montpelier Estate in Orange County has been restored. The Montpelier Foundation hopes it will teach the public about the Jim Crow period of segregation, and turn a dark chapter in American history into a positive lesson about change.
It's a chance to step back in time, when travel by train was king and when those who rode them were segregated. Montpelier President Michael C. Quinn says, "It's a much different sense of space in the colored waiting room from the white waiting room."
The Montpelier Foundation spent the past 18 months authentically restoring the building to what it looked like when it was built 1910 by William DuPont. There's an old telegraph and typewriter, and the benches are original to the building.
As required by racial segregation laws in Virginia at the time, the depot had to include two waiting rooms, a large one for whites and a smaller one for African Americans. So the historians re-hung the waiting room signs.
Tom Chapman is the research coordinator for the Montpelier Foundation. Chapman says, "We really did that to bring in to focus the realization that this aspect of this history existed."
The exhibit is a stark reminder of the Jim Crow era and the racism that African American travelers confronted. But the Montpelier Foundation hopes the message is about how America has changed. Quinn says, "It's a very key part in our overall effort to interpret race relations, social justice and even the evolution of the constitution here at Montpelier."
Chapman says, "We at Montpelier don't necessarily look at it as separate history to say it's African American history or it's American history but it's all kind of incorporated into one history with many different experiences."
Train service to the depot stopped about 1974, but the US Post Office has been there since 1912. If you'd like to visit the museum, the exhibit is free."

Apartheid may have ended over 20 years ago, but here in Cape Town the sense of apartness remains as strong as ever. After decades of enforced segregation, the feeling of division is permanently carved into the city's urban form, the physical legacy of a plan that was calculatedly designed to separate poor blacks from rich whites.
“Cape Town was conceived with a white-only centre, surrounded by contained settlements for the black and coloured labour forces to the east, each hemmed in by highways and rail lines, rivers and valleys, and separated from the affluent white suburbs by protective buffer zones of scrubland,”- Edgar Pieterse, director of the African Centre for Cities at the University of Cape Town
Long before apartheid, in 1927 actually, Langa was established in the suburbs of Cape Town, one of the many areas in South Africa that were designated for Black Africans, designed in a way to allow the authorities maximum visibility and control of residents. It is the oldest of such suburbs in Cape Town and was the location of much resistance to apartheid. Langa is also where several people were killed on 21 March 1960 same day as the Sharpeville massacre
Within Langa, there is the Joe Slovo ‘informal settlement’, a shanty town or squatter area of improvised housing ; shacks, made of plywood, corrugated metal, sheets of plastic, and cardboard boxes. [ It is named after former housing minister and Anti-Apartheid activist, Joe Slovo.] With over 20,000 residents, Joe Slovo is one of the largest informal settlements in South Africa.
Well we think it's Needle Ice, awaiting confirmation. It's another first for us which also means another tick off the lifetime bucket list. Found on the South Downs in West Sussex near a small stream which had overflowed and flooded the area, then it froze overnight, possibly over two nights or more given they all seem to look of being two tiered. This phenomena is known as Ice Segregation, when we found Frost Flowers back in 2017 in Decatur Alabama we made contact with Dr. Carter and he sent us this article which he had published a few years prior, it's probably the best explanation we've found for all the forms of Ice Segregation.

Reflections in Black and White exhibit - Cape Fear Museum - January 30, 2017 - New Hanover County, NC
Reflections in Black and White, features a selection of informal black and white photographs taken by black and white Wilmingtonians after World War II before the Civil Rights movement helped end legalized segregation. Visitors will have a chance to compare black and white experiences and reflect on what people’s lives were like in the region during the latter part of the Jim Crow era.
Examine mid-century cameras and photographic equipment and experience the “thrill” of opening a replica camera store photo envelope, a rare experience in today’s digital world. Flip through some recreated pages from Claude Howell’s scrapbooks, and take your own photograph in a 1950s setting.
Reflections in Black and White features selections from four large photographic collections:
•African American photographer Herbert Howard was a postal worker, a member of the NAACP, and a semi-professional photographer. Cape Fear Museum has a collection of more than 1,000 images he took documenting Wilmington’s black community.
•Artist Claude Howell left an extensive collection of scrapbooks to the Museum. The albums include hundreds of pages with photographs of Howell’s friends, local scenery, and people.
•Student nurse Elizabeth Ashworth attended the James Walker Memorial Hospital School of Nursing right after World War II. Her photographs provide a glimpse of a group of young white women’s lives in the late 1940s.
•In 2012, the Museum acquired a collection of photos that were taken in the late 1950s and early 1960s, and left at the Camera Shop, a downtown business that was a fixture from the late 1910s through the early 1980s.
Historian Jan Davidson explained why the concept behind the exhibit: “The different historical images speak to each other in some fascinating ways. Most of us can see our own lives reflected in the images, We all eat, hang out with friends, and many of us have taken silly pictures of ourselves or our loved ones. These images show our common humanity, and allow us to relate to people in the past as we might relate to a friend.”
Cape Fear Museum hopes the exhibit will spark reflection and conversation about the history of race relations. Davidson states, “When you look at these images as a group, they give us a chance to reflect on how legally-sanctioned racial segregation helped shape people’s daily lives. We want today’s visitors to have a chance to imagine what it felt like to live in a world where Jim Crow laws and attitudes deeply affected the textures of daily life.”

Wasting the City! A box for a box
There it goes! The Frappant Building in Hamburg Altona is teared down to build a new City Ikea. Wide range and long protest didn't help. People are not only scared that the new massive Ikea-Store in the residential area of Hamburg-Altona will bring way more traffic into the area, but also that Ikea is part of the gentrification that starts with higher rents and ends with residential segregation. At the end of the day..a box will be replaced by an even bigger box.

The events of 1957, as summarized in the museum across the street from the school: "On the morning of September 4, 1957, the Arkansas National Guard blocked nine African-American students from entering Little Rock Central High School. Two weeks later, a federal judge ruled that Governor Orval Faubus had illegally used the Guard to defy the U.S. Supreme Court's "Brown v. Board of Education" decision that school segregation was unconstitutional. Faubus removed the guardmen, but when the Little Rock Nine entered the school for the first time, segregationists outside grew violent. With the Little Rock police unable to ensure their safety, the students were forced to leave. The next day President Dwight D. Eisenhower backed the Supreme Court's constitutional authority by calling out the U.S. Army's 101st Airborne division. On September 25, soldiers escorted the teenagers into the school."

"Little Journeys into Storyland" or Stories that will Live and Lift by Louis B. Reynolds and Charles L. Paddock. Copyrighted in 1947 by The Southern Publishing Association, apparently for segregated schools.
William Tecumseh Vernon was an American educator, minister and bishop in the African Methodist Episcopal Church, president of Western University beginning in 1896, and Register of the Treasury from 1906 to 1911.
All US currency printed during his tenure carries the signature of William T. Vernon.
While serving as register (later the Public Debt Service which, in 1940, became the Bureau of the Public Debt), Vernon and a companion entered and sat at a table near Rep. John Nance Garner (D.-Tx.) and Rep. Martin Dies Sr. (D.-Tx.) May 13, 1909.
According to the New York Daily Tribune,
“Mr. Garner and his companion had given their order for food, when Mr. Vernon and his friend entered. At another table the three other Southern members were preparing to eat. The entrance of the register was greeted with protests, and when he had seated himself Mr. Garner announced that his order would have to be cancelled if Negroes were allowed in the restaurant.”
“He was followed by his colleagues, and they immediately went to the proprietor, to whom they expressed themselves in unmeasured terms. He declared that he was powerless to interfere and advised that the Speaker be consulted.”
“Mr. Garner heard from L. White Busbey, the Speaker’s secretary, that the restaurant was a public one, and that if Mr. Garner and his friends desired privacy they should go to the dining room set apart for member of Congress.”
“This information served to cool the anger of the Southerners, although there are still mutterings about a boycott on the restaurant.”
The effort and making the restaurant Jim Crow failed at that time , but was successful a few years later.
Vernon was briefly reappointed as register by William Howard Taft in 1910, but the president needed the position for his own patronage. Vernon accepted a federal appointment as the Supervisor of Indian and Negro Schools on a reservation in Oklahoma, newly admitted as a state combining the Indian and Oklahoma territories.
After being consecrated as a bishop in 1920, Vernon soon left for South Africa, where he worked as a missionary in the Transvaal district for four years.
The AME Church had been successful in building congregations among the indigenous peoples in South Africa. As early as the late nineteenth century, it was helping students come to the United States for college.
At the 1932 AME General Conference, members brought charges against three bishops: William Tecumseh Vernon, Joshua Jones, and William Decker Johnson. Ultimately, Vernon and Jones were suspended from their duties for misuse of conference funds.
In addition, there were complaints that Vernon had been too close to some of his women parishioners. This was at a period when there had been several scandals among senior clergy in the AME and other churches, and its prestige was declining..
In 1933 during the Great Depression, after the A.M.E. Church withdrew its support from Western University, the state provided funding.
The governor appointed Vernon as head of the industrial department. He appointed a strong faculty and succeeded in getting its accreditation restored before stepping down in 1936.

Cyrus likes to eat his food separately. I didn't notice this until he started complaining a little bit when I made stuffed peppers (the rice, cheese and meat are mixed together!) and that time I made a baked goat cheese salad and he ate the goat cheese separate from the rest of the salad.
As a joke, Regan bought him 2 of these cafeteria style trays last year. He finally used one last night, and I had to document it.
Garnet C. Wilkinson, the longtime assistant superintendent in charge of the District of Columbia’s segregated public African American schools, is shown in a portrait circa 1950.
Wilkinson was in charge of the black segregated schools from 1921 until 1954 when the school system was integrated and he became an assistant superintendent in the merged schools.
Wilkinson became the first African American in charge of black schools in the District after the resignation of Roscoe Conkling Bruce in the wake of the 1919 Moens’ child abuse scandal when so-called professor Moens was revealed to be taking nude photographs of African American school children.
While in charge of black schools, Wilkinson developed them into some of the best in the nation.
However working class African American parents challenged the deplorable conditions of their schools in the city and Wilkinson became a target when he instituted a plan where students went to school at the Browne Junior High for half a day, later amending the plan to have students walk half a mile to annexes during their school day to sit in small elementary school desks with no equipment or recreational facilities.
Wilkinson remained on the hot seat until lawsuits arising out of the uproar settled the issue once and for all when the Supreme Court ruled in May 1954 that District of Columbia school segregation was illegal in the Bolling v. Sharpe case.

Parents picket demanding better schools for African American children outside the Franklin building at 13th & K NW where the school board met in Washington, D.C. in December 1947.
The group led by Gardner Bishop that became the Consolidated Parents Group staged a two-month strike of students demanding an end to double shifts at Browne Junior High on Benning Road that resulted in a part time education for children.
The other demand was an end to using two elementary schools as annexes, forcing children to make half-mile walks between schools only to sit in elementary school desks that were too small.
None of the Browne facilities had recreational facilities or equipment like the nearby white school.
Their efforts ended both double shifts and the annex facility arrangement at Browne. The group’s suits resulted in the 1954 Bolling v. Sharpe Supreme Court decision desegregating District schools.

There is a TV drama forthcoming on WowWow TV on racial discrimination, segregation versus integration issues. Here is a collection of cast members taken in between production shooting. It was perfect weather as well being an unusually warm day (19ºC) for early February. Every one seemed to enjoy themselves, except there was a lot of excess standing, so our legs became quite tired and sore.
Shoot location was Showa Memorial Park near Nishi Tachikawa Station, Tokyo, Japan. Anyone who is a subscriber to Wow Wow and is interested in viewing the movie, please send me a personal message. Cheers…..

Although there was improvement in racial equality over all, there was still no end to segregation or discrimination, especially in the city. Atlanta for instance, was one of the most know areas in the nation when it came to racial disturbances. This is partly due to the elites desire to keep the economic system at the status quo and electing Eugene Talmadge as Governor. Talmadge was well liked by those who were benefiting from an economic system which took advantage of blacks and other minorities by paying them low wages. This was the way it had always been done. The New Deal in opposition was designed to help the very people the elites wanted to keep down and was seen as a threat to their lifestyle. In response, they elected Talmadge who drove hard against accepting the New Deal Programs which eventually became as powerful as the state government. In response, local officials in charge of relief often found excuses to give blacks less in the way of relief. A few years later, an excuse was found to clear a large African American neighborhood in order to push blacks toward and contain them within a certain area in the city. The excuse used was that the neighborhood was a slum and unattractive, especially as close as it was to the upscale shopping area downtown. After the the slums were removed though, nice apartments were built for the elite whites. These as well as the fear and panic about the unstable economy and the lack of jobs in the city all contributed to further segregation and discrimination in the city of Atlanta, and certainly in other cities.

Girard College:
Following the Supreme Courts’ Brown v. Board decision ending de jure segregation in all public school systems, Philadelphia moved slowly to carry out the court’s ruling. In the public schools, several actions by the School Board including moving Northeast High School out of North Philadelphia, furthered segregation and limited opportunities for African-Americans children. In another public arena, the admissions policy of Girard College became one of the significant tests of school segregation in the City of Philadelphia.
In his will dated February 16, 1830, Stephen Girard, a wealthy Philadelphia merchant, stipulated the establishment of a school for white males between six and eighteen years of age. Under the will, Girard having “sincerely at heart the welfare of the City of Philadelphia” left the principal part of his estate to “the Mayor, Alderman and citizens of Philadelphia, their successors and assigns” money for a number of charitable purposes of which the school was one. The purpose of these gifts was to foster “the prosperity of the City, and the health and comfort of its inhabitants.” At the time of Girard’s death, Philadelphia had fewer than 9,900 black inhabitants, who under then existing law had their citizenship rights decimated by regressive state legislation. In January 1848 the Girard College opened for the education of white male orphans.
Although not part of the Philadelphia public school system, Girard College was administrated by the Board of City Trusts on behalf of a public entity that is required to abide by federal laws. The first plaintiffs to seek admission at Girard College were represented by Raymond Pace Alexander, a distinguished African American attorney and member of Philadelphia City Council. They held that the College presented itself as an institution that was “municipal in nature”, namely a public boarding school or orphanage. They further asserted that because the State associated with the school, the College’s racial discrimination was unconstitutional.
Mayor Joseph Clark and City Council President James Finnegan, both ex-officio members of the Board of City Trusts, tried to persuade the Girard College board to admit the young men and seek a later decision by the courts. However, the other board members did not agree and maintained Girard’s will superseded as well as antedated both the Brown decision and the 14th Amendment to the Constitution. Lengthy litigation ensued through state and federal courts in Pennsylvania. By the mid-1960’s this dispute produced tremendous public agitation in the community and resulted in numerous civic demonstrations outside of the Girard College “wall”.
More than thirteen years after Brown, a final ruling and affirmation by the Supreme Court of the United States found that Girard’s will was superseded by the Brown decision. The school’s trustees were “permanently enjoined from denying admission of poor male orphans on the sole ground that they are not white, provided they are otherwise qualified for admission”. The first African American students were eventually granted admission to the school in 1968.

Joan Sexton is knocked down and nearly trampled by a mounted police officer after a melee broke out during an attempt to integrate the Anacostia swimming pool June 29, 1949.
Members of the local Progressive Party youth group led the attempt to integrate the facility.
The confrontation took place when 10 white and 10 black members and supporters of the Young Progressives entered the pool. Later, about 70 African Americans arrived and entered the pool area while about 100 waiting white opponents began a scuffle. Scattered fighting broke out both inside and outside the facility between the groups.
A white woman was chased by about 50 white youths who believed she was a “Wallacite” One in the crowd yelled, “Go back to Russia, you dirty red.”
An African American boy was corned by a white mob and sustained cuts when he attempted to climb over a barbed wire fence. Fighting continued between the two groups outside the pool area while the numbers of participants grew to about 1,000.
Two white students distributing Young Progressive handbills in favor of integration were arrested along with two African Americans who were alleged to be fighting with whites. One white youth was arrested for fighting with one of the white Young Progressives distributing handbills.
Several others among the Progressives were injured, including one African American hit in the head with a stone and a white woman trampled by a police horse.
The pool was temporarily closed as result of the clashes. The Interior Department had been scheduled to transfer the six pools to the District’s recreation department, but held off because DC insisted on segregating pools by race.
DC finally integrated its parks and pools in 1954 in the wake of the Bolling v. Sharpe school decision. The Supreme Court outlawed segregation in public parks nationwide in 1958.
