WEB: Adam Clayton Powell, Jr. was willing to act independently; in 1956, he broke party ranks and supported President Dwight D.Β Β for re-election, saying the civil rights plank in the Democratic Party platform was too weak. In 1958, he survived a determined effort by the Tammany Hall Democratic Party machine in New York to oust him in the primary election. In 1960, Powell, hearing of planned civil rights marches at the Democratic Convention, which could embarrass the party or candidate, threatened to accuse Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. of having a homosexual relationship with the activist Bayard Rustin unless the marches were canceled. King agreed to cancel the planned events, and Rustin resigned from the Southern Christian Leadership Conference.
