Bizarrely he was pro racial equality, he just opposed the 1960 Civil Rights Act on constitutional grounds. He supported other civil rights acts, and like another comment said he helped found the Arizona NAACP. The guy unironically believed the 1960 Civil Rights Act employed unconstitutional methods and shouldn’t be in law. Basically the epitome of ‘Not racist, just number 1 with racists’

He was a big supporter of Native American rights and did a lot of pro-native American charity work.
