In 1960, Dr. James B. McMillan served as president of the local Las Vegas NAACP, Branch 1111. In March of that year, he received a letter from the organization’s national office in New York — encouraging branches nationwide to elevate activities that would lead to integration of public accommodations. McMillan, using that same mode of communication, sent a letter to Las Vegas Mayor Oran Gragson — demanding integration of the Strip and Downtown in two weeks. McMillan clearly stated that if integration did not occur, the Black community would march down the Strip on the Saturday evening of March 26, 1960.

The Nevada Independent

Is Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-NV) just a carbon copy of Vice President Kamala Harris? Is Sam Brown just Donald Trump reincarnated? The Nevada Senate campaigns (and supportive outside groups) are each spending millions of dollars to try to get voters to think of their opponent in the same breath as their party leader. Each candidate has tried to brand the other with the moniker of their party leaders — Rosen rarely mentions Brown without adding the “MAGA extremist” label, while Brown has sought to portray Rosen as a rubber stamp for Biden, and now Harris’, economic agenda.
