A nervous young girl sits in the front row. She is the only black girl in her class, Tennessee, 1957.

—Lajuanda Street Harley who was enrolled in 1957 at Glenn Elementary School of Nashville, Tennessee. Her early days of first grade had angry parents present in the classroom. Her participation was part of the district's response to the Brown v. Board of Education ruling, with a plan to desegregate schools one grade per year starting with first grade.

In 1957, Nashville's all-white Hattie Cotton Elementary School was destroyed by dynamite blast when black kids integrated the school.

On September 9, 1957, as 19 Black six-year-olds integrated all-white elementary schools in Nashville, Tennessee, white church members—including one local minister—organized a persistent and violent campaign to oppose the integration of Nashville public schools. Outside Fehr Elementary School, one person held a sign that read “God is the author of segregation” and pursued two Black children walking to the school. Outside three different elementary schools that same morning, Fred Stroud, a white minister, sought to dissuade white parents from allowing their children to be educated alongside Black children by preaching damnation for those who did not uphold segregation.

The next day, 100 sticks of dynamite were thrown into Hattie Cotton Elementary School and exploded. Patricia Watson, the one Black elementary student who had been in class the previous morning, did not return. No Black children returned to Hattie Cotton Elementary School the following year, and no one faced criminal charges for the bombing.

Though Brown v. Board of Education determined in 1954 that school segregation was unconstitutional, for three years white residents in Nashville relied on intimidation and organized political resistance to maintain segregation in the public schools. In 1957, Nashville finally developed a “stair step program” which permitted a few Black elementary school students to enroll in eight elementary schools in their zones.

Throughout the summer of 1957, white segregationists in Nashville held intimidation rallies to terrorize Black families. In the days leading up to the first day of school, as Black parents pre-registered their children for school, mobs of white church members gathered outside buildings with signs calling segregation the “will of God.” One leader declared that “integration can be reversed” and that “blood will run the streets” before Nashville’s schools were integrated.

By the morning of September 9, out of the 126 Black children eligible to attend all-white elementary schools in their zones, only 19 Black children matriculated. Reverend Stroud gathered crowds at Glenn Elementary to preach about the evils of integration, and white people in cars outside of Jones Elementary held signs emblazoned with KKK iconography and Biblical quotes. As opposition grew throughout the morning, white mobs crowded the sidewalks and threw rocks and bottles at Black children and their parents who attempted to pass through the crowd. By the end of the day, half of the white students at Glenn Elementary School—nearly 250 children—had not arrived, as white parents chose to deny their children education rather than permit them to learn alongside Black children.

That evening, 300 white people gathered downtown and continued to threaten Black families who sent their children to school. They strung an effigy in blackface from a stoplight with a note pinned to its chest that read “this could be you.” As the mob around Fehr Elementary grew to at least 400, white people burned two outbuildings located on the property of a Black family that had sent their daughter to the school. The mob also continued to burn crosses on lawns of Black families who had dared to enroll their students that morning.

महामानव डॉ. बाबासाहेब आंबेडकर यांची आज जयंती. बाबासाहेबांनी केवळ इतिहास घडवला नाही, तर हजारो वर्षांचा अन्याय, अज्ञान आणि अस्पृश्यतेच्या अनेक पिढ्यांना आपल्या ज्ञानप्रकाशाने अंधारातून बाहेर काढले. भारताच्या संविधानाचे शिल्पकार, समाजसुधारक, अर्थतज्ज्ञ, कायदेतज्ज्ञ, लेखक, तत्वज्ञ आणि दलित, वंचित, शोषितांच्या हक्कांचा बुलंद आवाज असलेल्या बाबासाहेबांनी दिलेल्या "शि��ा, संघटित व्हा आणि संघर्ष करा" या त्रिसूत्रीचा आजही प्रत्येक पिढीवर प्रभाव आहे. स्वातंत्र्य, समता, बंधुता आणि न्याय हेच आपल्या प्रगतीचे खरे शस्त्र आहेत.

आज बाबासाहेबांची जयंती साजरी करताना आपल्याला त्यांच्या विचारांची आठवण ठेवून ते विचार कृतीत आणण्याची आवश्यकता आहे. बाबासाहेब हे केवळ एका वर्गाचे नाहीत, ते संपूर्ण मानवतेचे प्रेरणास्थान आहेत. बाबासाहेबांनी संपूर्ण मानव समाजासाठी, स��्व भारतीयांसाठी मूलभूत आणि महत्वपूर्ण काम केलेले आहे. बाबासाहेबांची 134 वी जयंती साजरी करत असताना आपण सर्वजण एकजूट होऊन समतेच्या, न्यायाच्या आणि शिक्षणाच्या दिशेने बाबासाहेबांच्या स्वप्नांची पूर्तता करूया.

सामाजिक, शैक्षणिक, आर्थिक आणि राजकीय अस्तित्वासाठी बाबासाहेबांचा विचार घेऊन पुढे जाऊया...जिथे समता आहे, तिथेच खरे स्वातंत्र्य आहे. त्यामुळे बाबासाहेबांनी संविधानाच्या माध्यमातून दिलेले मूलभूत हक्क आणि अधिकार जपूया, जागरूकपणे आपल्या कर्तव्याची आणि जबाबदारीची जाणीव ठेवूया...!

डॉ. बाबासाहेब आंबेडकर यांना विनम्र अभिवादन!

जय भीम!
