Belford Lawson, Jr.
Belford Vance Lawson, Jr. (July 9, 1901 – February 23, 1985) was an American attorney and civil rights activist who made at least eight appearances before the U.S. Supreme Court. He was the first African-American man to win a case before the Supreme Court and the first African-American president of the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA).
== Early life ==
Lawson attended the University of Michigan and was the school's second African-American varsity football player (having been preceded by George Jewett in the 1890s) and the only African American on the varsity during Fielding H. Yost's coaching tenure.
In 1924, after graduating from Michigan, Lawson was hired the head football coach and athletic director at Jackson College (now known as Jackson State University), a historically black college in Jackson, Mississippi. He also served as a professor of social science and the director of the Teachers' Professional Department.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Jackson State University )〕 In Lawson's three years as the head football coach at Jackson College, the team compiled a record of 0–3 and was outscored 54 to 0.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=College Football Data Warehouse )〕
Lawson was also reported to have held a position as a professor of economics at Morris Brown College in Atlanta, Georgia. Morris Brown president John Lewis, a Yale University graduate, was instrumental with Lawson's acceptance to Yale Law School, although Lawson would receive his J.D. from Howard University School of Law in 1932.〔
