Celebrating Robert W. Hainsworth

In honor of Black History Month, the Harris County Robert W. Hainsworth Law Library is celebrating the life and work of Robert W. Hainsworth. At a time when segregation was prevalent in Houston, including in the county courthouse, he took a stand for equality and fought for open and equal access to the Law Library.
