Racial discrimination history

[edit]

I submitted edits to clarify what is an inaccurate and misleading description of 20th century racial issues. These were based on personal memory as a participant in some of the pivotal events involved, but my edits were removed citing personal memory as an inadequate source. I assume documentation exists somewhere, but I don't know where, or whether I can get access to it. As an undergraduate member of PDT at the time of those events and someone who put much effort into eliminating the blatant racism that existed, I believe the current text is worse than no discussion of the subject at all and believe it should be deleted if it can't be corrected. But I'm not an experienced Wiki editor and would like advice before proceeding. Jonathan Langsam (talk) 20:08, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Jonathan Langsam: Rather than deleting or giving up, have you tried reaching out to the organization's national headquarters? I'm sure they have historical archives that would verify your recollections that could be used as citations. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 21:47, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
