Timeline
Out of a large number of volunteers, Harbour was one of only a few selected to take part in the first Freedom Rides; other participants included seven blacks — John Lewis, William Barbee, Paul Brooks, Charles Butler, Allen Cason Jr., Catherine Burks and Lucretia Collins —, and two whites — James Zwerg and Salynn McCollum. Harbour's involvement led to his arrest twice in rapid succession. The first arrest occurred in Montgomery at the tail end of a Nashville (May 17) – Montgomery (May 21) Freedom Ride. The second arrest occurred on May 28, 1961, at the end of a Nashville (via Memphis) – Jackson, Mississippi Freedom Ride, and resulted in Harbour's imprisonment for 30 days.
Following his expulsion from Tennessee State University, Harbour’s mother advised him against returning to Piedmont due to fear for his safety. Consequently, from 1961 to 1966 he made only "one brief visit" home.
In late 1961, Harbour was reinstated to Tennessee State University. After a short stint as a Georgia school teacher, and a period of involvement in the "War on Poverty" under President Johnson, he became a federal civil servant "specializing in U.S. Army base closings".
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 Jacksonville State University in 1960, he was able to fulfill this dream upon admission to Tennessee State University the following year.
William E. Harbour (January 9, 1942 – August 27, 2020) was 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.
Harbour was born into a black family, on January 9, 1942, 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.
