	Harry Scott Ashmore (1916â“1998) - Encyclopedia of Arkansas
		Harry Scott Ashmore was the executive editor of the Arkansas Gazette during the 1957 desegregation crisis at Little Rock’s Central High School and wrote a series of Pulitzer Prize–winning editorials on the subject.
		Harry Ashmore was born on July 28, 1916, in Greenville, South Carolina, to William Green Ashmore and Nancy Elizabeth Scott.
		Ashmore was outraged that Cherry would use this tactic and threw his support to Faubus, ghostwriting a speech for him to explain the “misunderstanding.” The speech was a masterpiece of political rhetoric, with a mix of humility, charity, and artful dodging, and it is credited with saving Faubus’s political career.

	Civil Rights and Wrongs by Harry Ashmore - A Book Review by Scott London
		Ashmore chronicles the politics of race from World War II through the Supreme Court's 1954 Brown vs. Board of Education decision outlawing segregation, to the bombings in Birmingham, the rise to prominence of figures such as Martin Luther King, Jr.
		Ashmore begins by describing the social mores and attitudes of his native South in the first half of the century -- the system, derived from the old slave-holding days, which ensured that fls would always be on the lowest rungs of the social and economic ladder.
		Ashmore contends that the modern era of civil rights began a generation earlier than generally recognized.

		Ashmore reserves his harshest criticism for Richard Nixon, the "retrograde" architect of the racially polarizing "Southern Strategy," and for the counterrevolutionary Reagan administration’s civil rights "postmortem." Democrats do not escape scrutiny unscathed, but they consistently receive the benefit of Ashmore’s doubt.
		Ashmore is able to muster a generally good report card for the protean Bill Clinton whose pro-civil rights instincts, Ashmore contends, are either subordinated to other concerns ("It’s the economy, stupid!"), or are sabotaged by a hostile Republican Congress.
		While Ashmore offers no prophetic vision, throughout the book he renders the cautiously pessimistic judgment that civil rights gains generally have resulted in progress for the fl middle class without significantly alleviating the plight of the fl underclass.

		Harry S. Ashmore, editor of the Charlotte (N.C.) News in the late 1940s and the Arkansas Gazette in the 1950s, two moderate newspapers, recalled that there were fewer than a dozen Southern newspapers that were liberal in racial matters in these years.
		The prizes went to Buford Boone of the Tuscaloosa (Ala.) News in 1957; to Harry S. Ashmore of the Arkansas Gazette in 1958; to Ralph McGill of the Atlanta Constitution in 1959; to Lenoir Chambers of the Norfolk Virginian-Pilot in 1960; to Ira B.

		In sum, Ashmore says the assumption that the alienation of the past could be dealt with by integrating the segregated minority into the larger society—beginning with education—did not work out.
		Where I would be even stronger than Ashmore is in assessing the quite enormous tragedy—to this day—of fls struggling with college work for the sole reason of unequal and inadequate high and elementary schools.

		Ashmore and the staff of The Arkansas Gazette won two Pulitzer Prizes for the newspaper's coverage of and commentary on the Little Rock school-desegregation controversy in 1958.
		Ashmore's opposition to segregation and segregationists are still with him, qualities that make his book a valuable historical analysis of the last halfcentury of America's struggle with the racial issue.
		He locates the genesis of the civil-rights movement in the segregation practiced in the pre-World War II South.

		Patterson, along with J.N. Heiskell and Executive Editor Harry S. Ashmore, led the Gazette in its Pulitzer Prize-winning defense of the rule of law during the Little Rock integration crisis of 1957.
		J.N. Heiskell was the great heart of the Gazette during that time, and Harry Ashmore was its great voice, but it was Patterson who was charged with keeping the paper afloat in the face of hostile public opinion and overt hostility from the state government.
		He, along with Heiskell, Ashmore and probably the finest staff of any American newspaper at that time, informed Arkansawyers about the crisis with complete and absolutely objective news coverage and pricked its conscience with courageous editorials.
