Harold K. Brown
Harold Kenneth Brown is a civil rights leader in San Diego, California. He graduated from San Diego State University in 1959 and became the first African American to hold administrative rank at the university. He founded chapters of the Congress for Racial Equality and was arrested repeatedly for protesting against racial discrimination. In 2011, SDSU inaugurated the "Harold K. Brown Civil Rights and African American Experience Collection" - a historical collection from the civil rights movement, consisting of thousands of photographs, documents and oral accounts, many from Brown's personal collection.
