What is jimmie davis' second term as governor notable for? fromk12

It was notable for his approach to racial segregation.

Jimmie Davis was an American singer and song writer, as well as politician and a governor of Louisiana. He was elected for two consecutive terms and his political campaigns were in favor of impoverished and rural white Louisianians.

Davis stood for racial segregation during his second turn in office ( 1960-64 ). He tried to obstruct the court-ordered integration of the state's public schools.

He also created the Louisiana State Sovereignty Commission that concentrated on maintaining the status quo in racial relationships and was used as a tool to suppress civil rights' activists.

Jimmie Davis served two nonconsecutive terms as legislative head of Louisiana, from 1944 to 1948 and from 1960 to 1964. In his second term, Davis managed the state as the social equality development tested conventional race relations. A segregationist, he bolstered the division of high contrast understudies in the state-funded schools.

Notwithstanding his profession in governmental issues, Davis was an effective gospel and gospel music vocalist and musician and Hollywood performing artist. He is maybe best known for his tune, "You Are My Sunshine," one of the official state melodies of Louisiana. Among different distinctions, he was chosen to the Country Music Hall of Fame and the Louisiana Music Hall of Fame.
