Lamar University History Professor Robert Robertson takes us into the Texas District Courtroom where judge Lamar Cecil heard two civil rights cases in 1955 and 1956. Six African American golfers filed suit for the right to use the Beaumont municipal golf course in 1955. Shortly after judge Cecil decided in the golfers' favor he heard a second civil rights case aimed at desegregating Lamar University, which was a state run school.
