Mississippi Blacks and the Voting Rights Act of 1965
Joubert, Paul E.; Crouch, Ben M.
Journal of Negro Education, 46, 2, 157-67, Spr 77
Analyzes the impact of the Voting Rights Act on black voter registration in Mississippi. Concludes that the future of black politics is highly uncertain in Mississippi. If the movement on the part of whites to disenfranchise blacks succeeds, and intimidation at the polls continues, advances made in the early 1970s could be seriously undermined. (Author/JM)
