The Negro Vote in the South. A Southern Woman's Viewpoint [suffrage flyer]
Description
An account of the resource
NWSA flyer containing an essay by Mrs. Guilford Dudley of Nashville, TN. Mrs. Dudley addresses the fear among white Southern Congressmen that if all women are given the vote through a Federal Suffrage Amendment, the increase in black voting power will be detrimental to the nation. Dudley notes the success of "educational tests" that limit black voter registration. <br /><br />For similar arguments with regard to compulsory education, see "<a href="https://images.socialwelfare.library.vcu.edu/items/show/331" target="_blank" title="Need of Compulsory Education in the South" rel="noreferrer noopener">Need of Compulsory Education in the South</a>."

Description
An account of the resource
<span>Photograph of students, teachers and staff at the Seventeenth Street Mission. <br /><br />In 1911, students from Union Theological Seminary in Virginia (Later, Union Presbyterian Seminary) started an urban ministry outreach program in the most impoverished neighborhood of Richmond, VA. The Seventeenth Street Mission functioned as a settlement house, offering laundry facilities and showers, meals, a clothing closet, classes in sewing, carpentry and other skills. <br /><br />The Sunday School program focused on the memorization of Bible verses, catechisms and the Lord's Prayer. In 1914, students from the General Assembly's Training School (later, the Presbyterian School of Christian Education) joined in as teachers and volunteers, and the effort became largely staffed by women.<br /><br /><span>In 1946, Elinor Curry of the Ginter Park Presbyterian Church became the director of the Mission. In 1952 the Eastminster Presbyterian Church was organized nearby, and in 1963 the Seventeenth Street mission building was demolished and its ministry operated through the Eastminster Church. </span><br /></span>

March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom [tri-fold publicity flyer]
Description
An account of the resource
Tri-fold flyer encouraging all Americans to join the March on Washington which would take place on Wednesday, August 28, 1963. <br /><br />Text on front page:<br /><br />"The time is NOW for all Americans Black and White to join the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. A call to action by James Farmer, Martin Luther King, John Lewis, A. Philip Randolph, Roy Wilkins, Whitney Young. Wednesday, August 28, 1963."<br /> <br />Text from inside flyer:<br /><br />"<strong>America faces a crisis... </strong><br /><strong>Millions of citizens are unemployed... </strong><br /><strong>Millions are denied freedom... </strong><br /><br />The twin evils of discrimination and exonomic deprivation plague the nation. They rob all people, Negro and white, of dignity, self-respect and freedom. They impose a special burden up the Negro who is denied the right to vote, refused access to public accommodations, forced to accept inferior education and relegated to sub-standard ghetto housing.<br /><br />One hundred years after the Emancipation Proclamation, the American Negro still bears the brunt of economic exploitation, the indignity of second-class citizenship, and ignominy of slave wages.<br /><br />The rate of Negro unemployment is almost three times higher than that of white workers, breeding misery, frustration and degradation in every community -- North and South.<br /><br />Discrimination in education and in apprenticeship training renders Negroes, Puerto Ricans and other minorities helpless in our mechanized, industrial society. Shunted to relief, to charity, or to living by their wits, the jobless are driven to despair, to crime, to hatred and to violence.<br /><br /><strong>Yet, despite this crisis...</strong><br />Southern Democrats and reactionary Republicans in Congress are still working to defeat any effective civil rights legislation. They fight against the rights of all workers and minority groups. They are the sworn enemies of freedom and justice. They proclaim states rights in order to destroy human rights.<br /><br />The Southern Democrats came to power by disenfranchising the Negro people. They know that as long as black workers are voteless, exploited, depressed and underpaid the fight of white workers for decent wages and working conditions will fail. They know that semi-slavery for one means semi-slavery for all. <br /><br />We oppose these forces. We appeal for unity to destroy this century-long hoax....<br /><br /><strong>We call upon all Americans, regardless of race or creed to join the March on Washington <em>for freedom</em>. </strong><br /><br />
<ul>
<li>To demand that Congress pass a civil rights bill that will restore the constitutional rights now denied the Negro people.</li>
<li>To assure neither watering down, nor compromise, nor filibuster against civil rights legislation by either political party.</li>
<li>To offer a great witness to the basic moral principle of human equality and brotherhood. </li>
</ul>
<strong>We call upon all Americans, regardless of race or creed to join the March on Washington <em>for jobs</em>.<br /><br /></strong>
<ul>
<li>In their historic non-violent revolt for freedom, the Negro people are demanding the right to decent jobs -- recognizing that their struggle is inextricably linked with the struggle for decent jobs for all Americans. </li>
<li>They know that, in the long run, there is no way for Negroes to win and hold jobs unless the problems of automation, a stagnant economy, and discrimination are solved; therefore, the Federal government must establish a massive works program to train and employ all Americans at decent wages and at meaningful and dignified labor.</li>
</ul>
------- <br />We call upon you and upon all organizations -- churches, fraternal societies, labor unions, civil groups, youth groups and professional associations -- to accelerate the dynamic, non-violent thrust of the civil rights revolution by joining<br /><br /><strong>The March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom</strong><br />To restore economic Freedom to all in this nation<br />To blot out once and for all the scourge of racial discrimination<br /><strong>The time is NOW"</strong>

Description
An account of the resource
<a href="https://encyclopediavirginia.org/entries/brooks-lucy-goode-1818-1900/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Lucy Goode Brooks</a> (1818–1900) and members of the Ladies Sewing Circle for Charitable Work established the Friends Asylum for Colored Orphans in 1871. These formerly enslaved women enlisted the support of the Cedar Creek Meeting Society of Friends (Quakers) to found a home for orphaned and abandoned African-American children. Brooks’s activism came from her experience losing one of her children, who was sold before the Civil War. <br /><br />The Friends Asylum opened an orphanage at St. Paul and Charity streets in Jackson Ward. Today, the organization is known as FRIENDS Association for Children. It provides childcare, enrichment programs, support and educational services to low-income families.

Description
An account of the resource
<p>From front cover: "Excerpts from pronouncements of different Woman's State Committees on Race Relations"<br /><br />Statements from Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia; followed by Resolutions from the Woman's General Committee, Commission on Interracial Co-operation. <br /><br />From back cover: "Organizations of Women Co-operating with The Commission on Interracial Co-operation <br />Presbyterian Church (South) <br />Episcopal Church (National) <br />Methodist Episcopal Church <br />Methodist Episcopal Church (South) <br />Baptist Church (South) <br />Disciples Church (National) <br />Congregational Church (National) <br />Y. W. C. A. (National) <br />Woman's Clubs (By States) <br />National Federation Colored Woman's Clubs" <br /><br /><br />From pp. 3 - 4 (Georgia)<br />"We have a deep sense of appreciation for the chivalry of men who would give their lives for the purity and safety of the women of their own race, yet we feel constrained to declare our convictions concerning the methods sometimes employed in this supposed protection...we believe that 'no falser appeal can be made to Southern manhood than that mob-violence is necessary for the protection of womanhood,' or that the brutal practice of lyching and burning of human beings is an expression of chivalry. We believe that these methods are 'no protection to anything or anybody but that they jeopardize every right and every security that we possess." <br /><br />p.5 (Oklahoma) <br />"We believe that the government should protect all citizens, regardless of class or color, and that life and property should be held sacred. <br />We hold, therefore, that no circumstances can every justify such disregard of law and humand rights as in involved in the crime of lynching and other forms of mob violence, and that in no instance can this be regarded as an exhibition of chivalry. <br />We pledge ourselves to efforts for creating in our citizenship a demand for full justice for the Negro; more consideration for his achievements; and less glaring publicity on crimes attributed to the race." <br /><br />p. 7<br />"RESOLVED, (1) That we deplore the failure of State Governments to handle this, the most conspicuous enemy to justice and righteousness, and the most flagrant violation of the Constitution of our great nation. <br />(2) That we definitely set ourselves to the task of creating such sentiment as is possible to us in each State of our territory to the end that not only sufficient laws shall be enacted to enable the trusted officers of the law to discharge their full duty, but to secure the enforcement of the laws now in existance. <br />(3)That this resolution be presented to all our co-operating organizations and State Committees in an effort to put into effect such plans as are necessary to secure a sustained effort on the part of our women to accomplishment of these ends." <br /><br />Founded in Atlanta in 1919, the CIC functioned as the major race reform organization in the South during the period between the world wars. While it never openly challenged segregation or advocated racial equality, it did strive for an end to racial violence and for better treatment for all classes of black men and women (<a href="https://docsouth.unc.edu/highlights/cic.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bridging the Gap: The Commission on Interracial Cooperation</a>, 2009).</p>
