WTAR-TV Historic Film Collection 

WTAR-TV Historic Film Collection 

Creator WTAR-TV
Description The collection consists of films used by WTAR, a television station in Norfolk Virginia. The entire collection is 4,600 reels of predominately acetate 16mm black and white film dated 1940s – 1980s. About 20 of the films relate to civil rights and school desegregation. These reels include a 1955 portrait of the Supreme Court for a story on Brown v. Board of Education; civil rights protests in North Carolina; and the Special Session of the Virginia Legislature in 1956 when “Massive Resistance” laws were passed to circumvent the Brown decision. Norfolk became a national beacon for resisting integration so films on local school desegregation have broad implications. In addition the collection contains films related to international relations, the military, oceanography and science. A small number of films have been digitized.

While a student at Harvard, Donn was present when the United States Supreme Court heard the school desegregation case, Cocheyse J. Griffin v. County School Board of Prince Edward County. Allan G. Donn  In this pivotal case, the court ruled that closing public schools to avoid desegregation was unconstitutional and ordered that they be reopened. Later, as a member of Norfolk legal firm of Willcox, Savage, Lawrence, Dickson & Spindle, Donn represented the School Board of City of Norfolk in desegregation cases in the late 1960s and 1970s. The collection contains court documents and a research paper related to school desegregation in Prince Edward County, Norfolk and Richmond, Virginia and North Carolina.

Forrest P. White Papers 

Forrest P. White Papers 

Creator White, Forrest P.
Description Dr. Forrest P. White was born in Norfolk in 1920. He graduated from Randolph-Macon College and the Medical College of Virginia. He served his internship in the United States Navy (1945-1946) and then served in the Medical Corps of the United States Naval Reserve (1946-1947). He served his residency at the Medical College of Virginia Hospitals from 1948 to 1950 and became a practicing pediatrician in Norfolk, Virginia. Dr. White was active in local politics in Norfolk and played a central role in the formation and running of the Norfolk Committee for Public Schools, an organization which opposed the closing of that city’s public schools during the desegregation crisis of the late 1950’s and early 1960’s. The papers of Dr. White date from 1952 to 1963, the bulk of which primarily concerns the desegregation of Norfolk, Virginia’s public schools. There is some material on the Gray Commission Report (1955-1956), much more on the Norfolk Committee for Public Schools, an organization in which Dr. White was active from 1958 to 1963. The latter material includes correspondence, publicity releases, financial records, and newspaper clippings. There are small amounts of material on the 1952 Byrd-Miller Democratic Senatorial primary and on the 1961 Citizens for Democratic Government campaign in Norfolk’s Democratic primary.
