Helen Singleton
Helen Singleton (born November 27, 1932) was a civil rights activist, most notable for her participation as a Freedom Rider in Jackson, Mississippi.
==Personal life==
Singleton was born on November 27, 1932, in Philadelphia, which is where she spent her childhood and most of her adult life. She grew up on her grandparents' farm with her mother and eight siblings. It was because of the segregation she witnessed as a child during summer trips with her mother that she later became a civil rights activist. "We could feel her exhaustion and the tension in the car," Singleton recalled. "And when we got there, there was always some incident — stores we couldn't go in because it's not the right day for blacks to shop.... It marred the joy of our summer vacations. I carried that with me for a long time."
In 1955, while Singleton was a freshman at Santa Monica College, she married Robert Singleton.
Soon thereafter, Singleton transferred to University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), alternating college with child-raising, graduating in the year 1943 with a major in fine arts. She got her Master of Public Administration in 1985 from Loyola Marymount University, and then she worked at UCLA developing courses, special programs, and a symposium on the arts and humanities. In 1992, Singleton began working as a consultant for arts groups, including the California Arts Council, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and the Missouri Arts Council. She retired in 1999, and lives in Inglewood, California, with her husband. , she gives talks and speeches about her time as a Freedom Rider.
