Backstory

Part 1

Lulu Belle Madison White was a civil rights activist and was among the most important early civil rights activists and she devoted most of her adult life to the struggle against Jim Crow in her home state Texas. Most of the issues she took up in the 1930s and 1940s led to civil rights reforms She campaigned for the right to vote, for equal pay for equal work, and for desegregation of public facilities.

In the early 1940s, Houston dentist and African American Lonnie Smith sued the Texas Democratic Party. He wanted the right to vote in the state’s primary elections. At that time, it was illegal for African Americans to vote in Texas primaries. The NAACP joined Smith’s lawsuit and carried it all the way to the Supreme Court. In 1944, in Smith v. Allwright, the Court outlawed all-white primaries as unconstitutional.

Buoyed by this success, in 1946, White recruited Heman Sweatt to desegregate the University of Texas. When, as expected, Sweatt was denied entry to the law school because of his race, the NAACP took this case to the Supreme Court, too. In 1950, the Court ordered the university to let Sweatt enroll. This case set the precedent for the Court’s landmark 1954 Brown v. Board of Education ruling that ended school segregation in the United States.
