July 16, 1960, 7 Black HS students & a college student entered the Greenville County Public Library, SC. They quietly read books & magazines. The librarian called the police, who arrived & arrested them. 👇
![he students had been to the library once before in the morning of July 16, but they had left when police arrived and told them to leave or they would be locked up. The Greenville Eight, as they were called (Jackson, Dorris Wright, Hattie Smith Wright, Elaine Means, Willie Joe Wright, Benjamin Downs, Margaree Seawright Crosby, and Daniel) had been counseled by the Rev. James S. Hall Jr., vice president of the South Carolina NAACP. They returned to Hall’s church, but he instructed them to go back, get a book, and sit down, Daniel recalls. “They would probably arrest us but, he said, don’t fear, we would be released.” . . .
Within a few minutes the police arrived and arrested all eight for disorderly conduct. Daniel says they were in jail about 15 minutes before African-American attorney Donald J. Sampson and Hall arrived. The court released each of them on $30 bond. [Continue reading.]
Attempts to desegregate the Greenville Public Library took a more legal approach in the following months, and, after public pressure mounted, the library was reopened as a desegregated facility on September 19, 1960.
The American Libraries article continues:
Although Greenville was not the first library system to integrate in South Carolina (Columbia and Spartanburg had already done so without any controversy), it was the first to do so as a result of public demonstrations by the Black community. The charges against the Greenville Eight were eventually dropped](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:vzpquvsfpdudxegn75xjbf2z/bafkreidalfpnf63qyavcsnpgg6gwmrn7flzwxmkapapfcz6jo3zhqbzyhm@jpeg)
