How did principal Lane’s positive attitude effect Crispus Attucks High School?

# data[].attributes.body
His positivity encouraged Crispus Attucks high school basketball players to be better. His positivity then led to Black people being able to play basketball.

“The games meant something quite different to principal Lane. He viewed each Backwoods gym as a showcase for progress and each attucks player a Goodwill Ambassador. A game at a rural school house was a chance to demonstrate to White fans someone who doubtless still had robes and hoods stashed in their closets that black and white Hoosiers could compete without violence or incident. His inspiring Speeches lead Crispus Attucks to Victory.”

This quote shows that principal Lane has a really positive attitude and doesn't care what other people think. He sees backwards gym games differently than everyone else, he sees it as a chance to show that skin color does not matter. His positivity led the Crispus Attucks to many victories. A couple years after that, blacks were able to play.

“The Indiana High School Athletic Association, established in 1903 to regulate High School sports in the state, stood powerless to police the monster it had created”

Why did basketball become so popular so quickly?

It was easy to play and it didn’t require much

Page 32 “ but basketball required only 5 players on a team and very little equipment. Players could practice their own simply by nailing a hoop to a bar or a wood shed. the game could be played indoors or outside.”

“Surely The Big Three made their case that success in the basketball tournament was a path to respect, which is what the Attucks student body needed.”

Since the Attucks was a all african school it made them have a disadvantage because of racism. If they were to prove everybody wrong then they knew that that would be treated better which in their case is what they needed to happen the most.

To try and embarrass black people and make them look bad. They designed it to fail.

Page 3- “In 1986, long after I left Indiana to move East, I had a chance to meet Oscar Robertson...You know,  Oscar said, when the Ku Klux Klan started our school, they really didn't understand what they were doing.”

This shows that the Ku Klux Klan took control of the blacks. The evidence shows that they didn’t know what they were doing, but what they were doing was making it fail. They were trying to make the school of black people look as bad as possible, to make hate black people more, because the KKK was strongly against black people. Also segregation was a big factor to the reason of the KKK building a school.

This shows that that this basketball team had wanted to play with other teams that were just black and ones from christian schools. They had been asking for a chance to play in the state tournament but had been declined and had felt that they should have been at least given a chance.

36

“It was, they likely pointed out, only fair and Democratic and American to give Attucks a chance”

39

“The first breakthrough came in 1933, why Attucks principal, Dr. Russell Lane, convinced  the athletic director of Elliotsville high  a small town school north of Bloomington, to take a chance on a game with Attucks.”

“After 15 years of struggle, at last the outcast schools had a chance”

This shows that that this basketball team had wanted to play with other teams that were just black and ones from christian schools. They had been asking for a chance to play in the state tournament but had been declined and had felt that they should have been at least given a chance.

A little later on the attucks principal convince another small town all white school to play them in one game to 20. This was important because this was a first of its kind.

Eventually a bill was passed letting them play in the state tournament.

“The now-descending shot, if it fell through the hoop, would answer those who had built a school to fail in a hatful atmosphere, would speak to those who kept Attucks high from playing in the tournament for fifteen long years, would reply to those who felt that black athletes would wilt under pressure” (Pg. 8)

The evidence supports the answer by showing that the high school was thought to be a bad school and if they made the shot the school would be an amazing school

It made african americans segregated from whites and it caused a lot of public places to be divided such as schools and neighborhoods.

On page 15 it said “

Jim crows Wings shadowed everything. Schools were racially segregated, just as in the south. Most black families lived in overcrowded squalor within a damp, low-lying slum neighborhood known as frog Island. Most houses had no heat, electricity, or indoor plumbing.”

On page 19 it said “

By 1924 nearly one-third of Indiana's white male population was about 250,000 in all where klan members, and Indiana was known far and wide as the klan state.”

Since Jim Crow laws made it so black people couldnt  be with white people most of the time it caused a lot of segregation and racism to the african americans. This is making black kids go to an all black school and white kids go to an all white school. This also is what help the KKK form and grow so well and fast.

it helps them because there were many new job opportunity and their is better schooling (at first), and less raciom

page 14

“By 1916 and 1970, nearly 6 million African-Americans migrated North to seek jobs, better housing, and a good education for children. North also meant hope, hope for relief from white people who hated and threatened and confined and be limited, exploiting their labor and fraction for it's worth.”

This helps show how Indiana had a lot of potential not only for the Robertson family but for 6 million others. At this time indiana promised hope,good edu, and well paying jobs. It was a place where racism wasn't going to be common and there would be more of a racial mix.
