07033.ED – This photo shows the inside front cover of a book which was used by black students in Jefferson County. Originally it had been purchased by the Board of Education for the exclusive use of White Students. However, Black students were allowed to use the textbooks when they were no longer needed by the whites because new books had been purchased for the white students. Whereas they were not as new as the books for the white students, the black students were grateful to have them, even though they were castoffs.
