Some Famous People called Walter White

Walter Francis White

Walter Francis White (July 1, 1893 – March 21, 1955) was an African-American civil rights activist who led the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) for a quarter of a century, 1929–1955, after joining the organization as an investigator in 1918. He directed a broad program of legal challenges to racial segregation and disfranchisement. He was also a journalist, novelist, and essayist. He graduated in 1916 from Atlanta University (now Clark Atlanta University).

In 1918, White joined the small national staff of the NAACP in New York at the invitation of James Weldon Johnson. He acted as Johnson's assistant national secretary and traveled to the South to investigate lynchings and riots. Of multiracial, majority-white ancestry, at times he passed as white to facilitate his investigations and protect himself in tense situations. White succeeded Johnson as the head of the NAACP, leading the organization from 1929 to 1955. He joined the Advisory Council for the Government of the Virgin Islands in 1934 and resigned in 1935 to protest President Roosevelt's silence at Southern Democrats' blocking of anti-lynching legislation to avoid retaliatory obstruction of his New Deal policies.

White oversaw the plans and organizational structure of the fight against public segregation. He worked with President Truman on desegregating the armed forces after the Second World War and gave him a draft for the Executive Order to implement this. Under White's leadership, the NAACP set up its Legal Defense Fund, which conducted numerous legal challenges to segregation and disfranchisement, and achieved many successes. Among these was the Supreme Court ruling in Brown v. Board of Education (1954), which determined that segregated education was inherently unequal. White also quintupled NAACP membership to nearly 500,000.

Walter White (English footballer)

Walter White (1864 – after 1889) was an English footballer who played in the Football League for Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Born in Halesowen in 1864, he played for Coombs Wood FC from 1887–1888 before joining Wolverhampton Wanderers in readiness for that initial League campaign of 1888–89.

Walter White, playing as a forward, made his League debut on 8 September 1888, at Dudley Road, the then home of Wolverhampton Wanderers. The visitors were Aston Villa and the match ended as a 1–1 draw. Walter White scored his debut League goal on 22 September 1888 at Dudley Road against Burnley. Wolverhampton Wanderers won the match 4–1, White scoring the first and third of Wolverhampton Wanderers' four goals. White appeared in four of the 22 League matches played by Wolverhampton Wanderers during the 1888–89 season. Playing as a forward (four appearances), was part of a forward-line that scored three–League–goals–or–more–in–a–match once.

Unfortunately he failed to establish himself in the first XI and was released by the club in April 1890, when he teamed up with Cradley St. Luke's FC. White played four times for Wolverhampton Wanderers and scored two goals, all in League matches. The date of his decease and where it happened are not known.
