Omaha City Councilwoman Mildred Brown’s speech.
Excerpt:
If our boys can drive jeeps, tanks, and jet planes in Korea, in the fight to save democracy, make democracy work at home. Make it work in Omaha. …… I say to you, your Honor, the Mayor, if the tram company will not hire Negroes as drivers we prevail on you to remove the franchise of the bus company.
