Lester Maddox was the 75th Governor of Georgia from January 11, 1967 to January 12, 1971. A lifelong Democrat, he championed segregation, and like contemporary liberals, advocated the threat and use of violence to achieve political ends.[1] He later served as lieutenant governor of Georgia under Jimmy Carter.
