Sanders Led First Civil Rights Sit-in Chicago History (1962)

Fact checking shows that Bernie Sanders was the real deal on being a leader of student protests against segregated black student housing at the University of Chicago. While Hillary was still in diapers Bernie Sanders was taking the risks associated with early 1960s civil rights activism; why didn't he say so when the Congressional black caucus threw in the towel to Hillary?

"In January 1962, Sanders led a rally at the University of Chicago administration building to protest university president George Wells Beadle's segregated campus housing policy. "We feel it is an intolerable situation when Negro and white students of the university cannot live together in university-owned apartments," Sanders said at the protest. Sanders and 32 other students then entered the building and camped outside the president's office, performing the first civil rights sit-in in Chicago history"
