Caymen Gaines, a student at Natchez Early College Academy, presents today's Natchez History Minute about the end of the boycott of Natchez stores by African-Americans on this day, Dec. 4, 1965.  Considered one of the most effective ever imposed by Civil Rights forces in the south, the boycott forced city administrators to accept a series of demands, including the hiring of black police officers and the desegregation of the city schools.
