Clarence Brown, staunch conservative and civil rights champion
Grand Old Partisan honors Clarence Brown, born near Cincinnati, July 14th 1893. After two years as statistician at the Ohio Secretary of State office, he published several newspapers. Elected lieutenant governor at twenty-five, he firmly opposed a resurgent Ku Klux Klan. His next elective office was secretary of state.
In 1938, Brown won first of fourteen congressional terms. This staunch conservative defied FDR’s New Deal and Truman’s Fair Deal. At the same time, he defended Blacks from Democrats:
"If democracy is to continue to live throughout the world, and here in our beloved America, those of us who have the ability and power to do so must see to it that the full rights of the weak and defenseless are safeguarded against the violence and the intolerance of the strong and the mighty."
Receiving his vote were the 1957, 1960 and 1964 Civil Rights Acts as well as the 1965 Voting Rights Act.
