...Senator Strom Thurmond that labeled the racial integration of Southern schools a “clear abuse of judicial power.” A glimpse at today’s newspapers, plastered as many of them are with pictures and coverage of America’s first black President-elect, reveals exactly how much has changed in the 52 intervening years. Much of that transformation can be envisioned in, and in some cases attributed to, the lengthy and remarkable political career of the graduate in question, now-Senator Edward M.
