Talk:Hayti, Durham, North Carolina

Inaccurate Infromation
The section about the Royal Ice Cream Parlor is inaccurate. Royal Ice Cream was not in Hayti and was nowhere near it.

"*The first "sit-in" happened in Hayti on June 23, 1957, when Rev. Douglas Elaine Moore, minister of Asbury Methodist, led a group of six other blacks (three women, three men) into the Royal Ice Cream Parlor, which had segregated seating according to state law, and sat down in the "white" section. When they were arrested, Moore turned to Floyd McKissick, a young Durham lawyer, for their defense. The case was eventually appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court. Durham’s black Ministerial Alliance initially opposed Moore’s "radical" actions, as did the citywide political organization, the Durham Committee on Negro Affairs, or DCNA. Participants in the sit-in included: Mary Elizabeth Clyburn, Rev. Douglas Elaine Moore, Claude Edward Glenn, Jesse Willard Gray, Vivian Elaine Jones, Melvin Haywood Willis, and Virginia Lee Williams. Such non-violent demonstrations became a basic tool in the increasing popular activism of the civil rights movement."

Merger from Hayti District
I propose a merger of material in Hayti District to this article. This is more developed, with wikilinks and cites. There is not sufficient reason to have two closely related articles on this historic community. Parkwells (talk) 17:12, 18 June 2012 (UTC)
