| Description: | Master 1916 Tape 1 MS former Governor of Alabama and Presidential hopeful GEORGE WALLACE at podium speaking to the press. MS cameramen filming. MS George Wallace standing at podium, speaking to press at press conference. CU George Wallace at podium talking about the "Freedom of Choice Plan" which deals with civil rights and busing children to school: "The actions of the people in this busing matter is not being ignored. I'm sure President Nixon is not ignoring it... I think that this coming September when school opens that some of these parents are going to ignore Judge Porner's attitude. You might watch and wait. I think all of you know that this busing matter is not a matter that... in the context of racism. The people of Texas and this country have accepted the non-discriminatory policy of freedom of choice even though many people still feel that it is the right of the states to determine the policy of their school system without any interference from the federal level..." | |
