Original Title: TIL on the May 9, 1969, episode of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, Rogers asked Officer Clemmons, a black policeman played by François Clemmons, if he'd like to cool his feet with Rogers in a child's pool. Clemmons accepted after Rogers offered to share his towel too. Most pools were still segregated.
