Excellent summary of the reversal or roles. Its strange how it was all related to race except for the FDR Era.I mark the moment when the reversal really started was when Truman unambiguosly put his Presidency on the line as a matter of principle and principle only by integrating the military and so triggering Strom Thurmond's Dixiecrat candidacy and by appointing the most liberal Justices to the SCOTUS before or since. He also offered the Secretary of State job to Ralph Bunche who would have been the first black Cabinet member in history had he accepted. |
