Far Left's Quixotic Struggle to Block Jeff Sessions | LifeZette - Kathryn Blackhurst - Donald V. Watkins, a law school contemporary, recalled that Sessions was the first white student ever to ask him to join a campus organization when he invited Watkins to attend the Young Republicans. "Jeff was a conservative then, as he is now, but he was NOT a racist,” Watkins wrote in a Facebook post back in May, that he then reposted in November.
The long and complicated road to understanding Jeff Sessions and matters of race - LA Times - Del Quentin Wilber -- In the fall of 1970, he enrolled at the University of Alabama Law School, which had integrated just a year earlier. Within his first few weeks at school he befriended Donald Watkins, a black classmate. Watkins still warmly recalls how Sessions was one of the few white students who welcomed him with a handshake and smile. “He was literally the second white person to speak to me,” said Watkins, who went on to become a civil rights lawyer. “He acknowledged my humanity. When somebody is nice to you, when you can walk down the hall and [other] people are referring to you [with racial slurs] and somebody was treating you with decency, that was huge in 1970.”
