Sheryll D. Cashin is a law professor at Georgetown University. She was born and raised in Huntsville, Alabama, where her parents were political activists.〔(Georgetown Law Faculty )〕 Her mother Joan and father John were both involved in the civil rights movement, which greatly influenced her belief about the importance of political engagement, and instilled values which she researches and discusses today.〔(Backstory )〕
==Family and Home==
Political involvement and activism has been a very common ideal in Sheryll Cashin’s family which is what subsequently has led to Cashin’s pursuit of racial issues including segregation and inequality. Her father John L. Cashin, Jr. challenged George Wallace in the 1970 gubernatorial election in Alabama. At the start of the civil rights movement in early 1962, and at four months old, Cashin’s mother was arrested while being involved in a sit-in protest at a lunch counter, while still holding on to Sheryll. Her father John was a dentist and was also one of the most influential civil-rights leaders in Huntsville and Alabama in the late 1960s. He founded a black-led third party in Alabama, the National Democratic Party of Alabama (NDPA), during the height of George Wallace’s hegemony and succeeded in efforts to enfranchise thousands of voters who had previously been excluded from the political process through Jim Crow laws.〔(Backstory )〕 Cashin’s great-grandfather, Herschel V. Cashin was a radical Republican legislator in Alabama during Reconstruction. He was born in Antebellum, Georgia, and was the child of a white Irishman and a free-mulatto woman.〔(Backstory )〕
Sheryll Cashin’s family also became the first black family on the block, when they moved in 1966 from Lydia Drive in northwest Huntsville to Owens Drive, at the foot of Monte Sano.〔(''The Huntsville Times'' )〕
