Fun with Our Friends, a Dick and Jane reader, played a role in a congressional hearing about bias, race, and education. After rumors circulated that some elementary school books had a multicultural version for Northern readers and an all-white version for Southern schools, the Ad Hoc Subcommittee on De Facto School Segregation investigated. This photograph, taken in 1966 around the time of the hearings, shows the 1962 all-white version of Fun with Our Friends on the left and the 1965 integrated version on the right.
