Legal community will gather today (Thursday) in Gary, Indiana to honor Hilbert Bradley . . . When Hilbert L. Bradley returned to Indiana after being discharged from the Army, the World War II veteran decided he would take advantage of the G.I. Bill and apply for enrollment at Valparaiso University School of Law. It was 1947, a time when segregation was the unwritten "law." But Bradley received a surprise. "They welcomed me right away," Bradley recalled. "And three years later, I was the first African-American graduate there." Bradley went on to do great things with his law degree. In 1957, he lobbied Congress for the passage of the Civil Rights Bill. He marched in the 1963 March on Washington with the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and the Poor People's March on Washington in 1968. Also during the 1960s, Bradley founded the Fair Share Organization to advocate equal employment opportunities for African-Americans. Bradley later went on to found the Indiana Coalition for Black Judicial Officials. Read more about Bradley and his retirement here. *The retirement dinner for lawyer and civil rights activist Hilbert Bradley. Will be held in Gary Indiana at: Avalon Manor, 3550 E. U.S. 30, Hobart at 6 p.m today. Tickets are $50 each and are available at the McCain Law Offices, 5655 Broadway or via telephone at: 884-0696. |
