Everett Parker

Everett Parker is one of only a handful of church leaders still living who commanded a position of leadership in the 1957 birth of the United Church of Christ and continues to be a force even today. But Parker is unique in his own right for his contributions to the public good. His reputation as an advocate for the public's rights in broadcasting is forever linked to his successful legal challenge to deny the license renewal of WLBT-TV, Jackson, Miss. In a landmark decision in 1966, a federal circuit court ruled that citizen groups have standing (the right to be heard and appeal to the courts) before government regulatory agencies. [More]
