About Valerie Shaw:
Valerie Shaw has a background in journalism – having reported for a number of publications, including the Los Angeles Times, the Los Angeles Sentinel and the Wave Publications – and in public relations--earning a Master’s degree in Public Relations from the University of Southern California. She was also the first (and perhaps the only) reporter to bring a successful discrimination lawsuit against her former employer, the powerful Los Angeles Times in 1981, thus changing the paper’s hiring practices forever.
Both her career as an award-winning business writer and as a business owner spans nearly 50 years. Shaw has—either by herself or with partners—owned retail, wholesale, and manufacturing businesses and been involved in the development of dozens more.


She was a founding member of the Black Public Relations Society, Inc, and she was recently honored by the L.A. City Council for being the Mother of the Black Journalists’ Association of Southern California, founded in 1980.

About The Tougaloo Nine:
At 11 a.m. on March 27, 1961, nine students from the historically black Tougaloo College walked into the all-white Jackson (Miss.) Public Library. Joseph Jackson Jr., their leader, approached the circulation desk.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Tougaloo Nine were a group of African-American students at Tougaloo College who participated in civil disobedience by staging sit-ins of segregated public institutions in Mississippi in 1961.

Mississippi was considered by civil rights organizer Medgar Evers to be "too racist and violent" for lunch counter sit-ins so the public library was chosen because it was supported by both Black and White taxpayers. The students, all NAACP Youth Council members led by Joseph Jackson Jr., entered the "white" Jackson (MS) Public Library on March 27 and staged a "read in." They were told “There’s a colored library on Mill Street.... You are welcome there.” When they refused to leave, they were arrested and charged with breach of the peace for failing to leave when ordered to do so.[4] Protests followed the students' arrest.[5] Policemen with dogs attacked the protestors as they applauded the arrival of the Tougaloo Nine at the courthouse, resulting in many injuries. Medgar Evers later reflected "This act on the part of the police officials brought on greater unity in the Negro community and projected the NAACP in a position of being the accepted spokesman."
