Walter White
Description
During the tenure of Walter White as the second Black executive secretary of the NAACP, Blacks were routinely lynched by White mobs in the 1930s. White used his Nordic appearance to investigate hate crimes against African Americans. White's daughter and the author of a new book examining her father's legacy discuss the periods in the civil rights leader's life when he left the safety of one world to enter the violent society of racial hatred.
