Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Post-Reconstruction Jacksonville was one of the most equitable cities in the South, with white Republicans giving African Americans the space for their middle class to flourish. Minority lawyers developed their practices and took on the early civil rights cases during the Jim Crow era. Among them was the battle over streetcar segregation, with lawyer J. Douglas Wetmore leading the sole defeat of segregated cars in the South. His protégé, Simuel D. McGill, marked his own civil rights victories and took on the <italic>Chambers</italic> case, which he litigated for nine years. The early African American bar paved the way for the NAACP Legal Defense Fund that arose with the next generation.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
