Read this excerpt from We’ve Got a Job: The 1963 Children’s March.During his second term as commissioner, Connor wrote a letter to President Franklin D. Roosevelt that revealed his views on race: he warned the liberal-leaning president that in cities where "the doctrine of white supremacy" fails, "Negroes become impudent, unruly, arrogant, law breaking, violent and insolent." Several years later, a grand jury described Connor as "explosive, vindictive … dictatorial … autocratic and [someone who] uses no persuasion, logic, or reason, if any he has.”If a student compares this excerpt to the power of dictators, which type of connection is made?
