Draft Reply to Lucile Bluford

Description: 

Partial draft of a response to Lucile Bluford, written by an unknown party, in reply to her inquiries about gaining admission to the University of Missouri's journalism graduate program. At the time, Bluford was the managing editor of the Kansas City Call and seeking admittance to the masters degree program at MU's School of Journalism. After repeated efforts to enter the program, and repeated denials due to her race, she filed a lawsuit against the university that eventually was heard before the Missouri Supreme Court.
