William E. Harbour is an American civil rights activist who participated in the Freedom Rides. He was one of several youth activists involved in the latter actions, along with John Lewis, William Barbee, Paul Brooks, Charles Butler, Allen Cason, Catherine Burks, and Lucretia Collins.〔Arsenault, Raymond. ''Freedom Riders: 1961 and the Struggle for Racial Justice''. Oxford UP, 2006. Print. 102, 185〕 ==Early life and education== Harbour was born into a black family in Piedmont, Alabama. His father was a cotton mill worker at the Standard Coosa Thatcher mill and the owner of the OK Barbershop — Piedmont’s only black barbershop —, while his mother worked as a cook to local white families. Although his father hoped that he would take over the barbershop, Harbour was determined to become the first person in his family to attend college.〔〔 Following a rejection by Jackson State University in 1960, he was able to fulfill this dream upon admission to Tennessee State University the following year.〔
