 PHMC Doc Heritage: Civil Rights and Integration: Levitown   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Levittown was a planned residential community in Bucks County, twenty-two miles northeast of Philadelphia.
Almost immediately after receiving the news, approximately 600 Levittowners held an "orderly" meeting at which they circulated a petition protesting the mixing of the races in their "closed community." Residents explained that they did not fear Myers, but did not want large numbers of African-Americans to follow him to Levittown.
One resident concluded that the violence in Levittown was the result of people being angry "for being kicked around by state troopers." Another charged that the police used "Gestapo methods" in dealing with people who opposed "the invasion" of the community by the Myers family and suggested that the police be awarded "iron crosses."
