Biography
Gary Green Jr. was one of the demonstrators in the Jackson, Mississippi park desegregation protests and was arrested on July 6, 1961 for a sit-in at the segregated Livingston Park in Jackson — one of the arrests recorded by the Mississippi State Sovereignty Commission and preserved in the Civil Rights Digital Library. The catalog establishes the arrest, the participation, and the individually identified police photograph, but not the court disposition, any transfer to Parchman, or the physical release date; those fields are unresolved pending county-jail, court, or penitentiary records.
