Founder of \The Journal of Negro Education\, Charles H. Thompson: Biosketch and Bibliography
Charles H. Thompson not only served as editor of the JNE, he also maintained a 40-year career at Howard University serving as chairman of the Department of Education, Dean of the College of Liberal Arts, and Dean of the Graduate School. Other articles discussed monumental court cases that led to pivotal changes in educational attainment for Black law school students today such as in The University of Maryland v. Donald Gaines Murray (1936) case. In this court case, Thurgood Marshall successfully filed suit against the University of Maryland for denying entry to a qualified African American student (Donald Gaines). Thompson documented Thurgood Marshall's first triumphant civil rights court case without knowing the great impact he would have on African American education (e.g., Brown v. Board of Education, 1954). Thompson's editorials challenged the ratings of Black colleges and universities and documented historical events that affected the availability of education for Black people such as World War II, international politics, the Civil Rights Movement, segregated schools, and voting rights. During his tenure, there were relatively few journals that published positive discussions on the education, social sciences, and civil rights of Black people in America.
