Julian Bond’s political career Julian Bond was always actively involved in the civil rights movement and from such activities he was able to launch his political career. In the mid 1960s his political career illustrated a shift among the grassroots leaders away from the politics of “race men”. He became motivated by an ideology of racial uplift which does not necessarily mean full equality. Bond soon realized that to maintain civil rights initiatives the African Americans needed to gain a political presence. From an early age Bond used to run political office.

With the experience he had garnered by organizing the black community, he was able to run a successful campaign for state office. Julian Bond had successful political career in running grassroots campaign. In 1965 he was elected in the Georgia House of Representatives to a one year term. Bond used to openly speak against the War in Vietnam and because of his negative views, the members of the House voted against him.

He was then elected to the Georgia Senate for six terms between 1975 and 19862. Bond served four terms in the House and six terms in the Senate. In the Senate, Bond became the chairman of Fulton County Senate Delegation, the largest and most diverse in the upper house. He was the first black chairman. He was also the Chairman of the Committee on Consumer Affairs and a member of the Committees on Human Resources, Governmental Operations, and Children and Youth. When he was member of Georgis General Assembly he sponsored more than 60 bills which went on to become law. Some such bills which were passed were authorisation of a minority set-aside program for Fulton County, and a state-wide program providing home loans at lower rate of interest to Georgians having low income.
