LEROY BENJAMIN FRASIER PAPERS, #4375, 1955-1980
Mostly correspondence, clippings, and printed material relating to the desegregation of the
undergraduate class of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1955 by John T. Brandon and Frasier's sons Ralph and LeRoy Jr. Most of the
correspondence is from friends and supporters in Durham and Chapel Hill, North Carolina, and
nearly all of the clippings pertain to the activities of the Frasier sons at Chapel Hill and
in later years. Also included are three photographs of the students on the first day of class
at UNC (1955) and a letter of R. B. Frasier to his sons in which he
reminisces about the impact of the incident on the lives of the Frasiers (1971).
