Title	[Letter from Clarence Harris to David DuBuisson]
Date	1991-02-12
Creator	Harris, Clarence Lee
Subject headings	Greensboro Sit-ins, Greensboro, N.C., 1960
Topics	Business desegregation and sit-ins, 1960
Place	Greensboro (N.C.)
Description	This February 12, 1991 letter from Clarence "Curly" Harris to Greensboro News & Record editor David DuBuisson, questions details about the 1960 sit-ins presented in a February 10, 1991 editorial entitled "The descent into 'multiculturalism.' The editorial, included as a clipping, mentions the 1960 sit-ins in the Greensboro Woolworth store Harris managed at the time. Harris challenges DuBuisson's information about the duration of the protests and questions why DuBuisson shows a "lack of respect" for the F.W. Woolworth Co. by calling it a "dime store." Harris also refutes a statement in the editorial that protesters had a victory dinner at the Mayfair Cafeteria, stating that its owner, Boyd Morris, actually closed the cafeteria rather than serve blacks.
