EDUCATOR, COURAGEOUS AND INFLUENTIAL CIVIL RIGHTS ATTORNEY, JULIUS CHAMBERS, DEAD AT 76

Julius Chambers.jpgOn Saturday, August 3rd, esteemed civil rights attorney Julius Chambers, who had been in ill health, passed away. 
 
For his courageous and successful efforts in fighting discrimination in Charlotte, North Carolina, his car was firebombed, his home bombed, and his office torched and destroyed.   Yet, this never stopped Chambers from fighting employment discrimination, capital punishment, and other civil rights cases.
