I don't get the
sculpture? But I do relize now he was a racist.

Appointed conservative judges, like
Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, who continue to issue rulings to the detriment of African
Americans. Walters notes that just 2 percent of Reagan’s judicial appointments were
Black.

Began his 1980 presidential campaign in Philadelphia, Miss., near the site where
three civil rights workers were murdered in 1964.

Supported racism with remarks like
those that characterized poor, Black women as “welfare queens.”

Fired U.S.
Commission on Civil Rights members who were critical of his civil rights policies, including his
strong opposition to affirmative action programs. One of the commissioners, Mary Frances
Berry, who now chairs the Commission, recalls that the judge who overturned the dismissal did
so because “you can’t fire a watchdog for biting.”

Sought to limit and gut the Voting
Rights Act.

Slashed important programs like the Comprehensive Employment and
Training Act (CETA) that provided needed assistance to Black people.

Appointed
people like Clarence Thomas, who later became a horrible Supreme Court Justice, to the Equal
Opportunity Commission; William Bradford Reynolds, as assistant attorney general for civil
rights; and others who implemented policies that hurt Black people.

Doubted the
integrity of civil rights leaders, saying, “Sometimes I wonder if they really mean what they say,
because some of those leaders are doing very well leading organizations based on keeping
alive the feeling that they're victims of prejudice."

Tried to get a tax exemption for Bob
Jones University, which was then a segregated college in South Carolina .

Defended
former Sen. Jesse Helms’ “sincerity” when that arch villain of Black interest questioned Martin
Luther King’s loyalty.
