The reference to Reagan has what relevance?

None, except to imply that Reagan was racist.

The article may be improved by following the WPBiogaphy 11 easy steps to producing at least a B article. --KenWalker | Talk 02:47, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The summary says that he was only listed as "Black Passenger" in Mississippi Burning, which is true, but according to the Wikipedia page on Mississippi Burning: "Neither production gave the real names of the murderers, due to legal considerations, and Mississippi Burning does not mention the victims (who are referred to as "The Boys") by name in the film. In the film credits they are simply identified as "Goatee" based on Michael Schwerner played by Geoffrey Nauffts, "Passenger" based on Andrew Goodman played by Rick Zieff and "Black Passenger" based on James Chaney played by Christopher White." ...it was therefore not intended as an affront to his work as an activist that the movie listed him as such.
