Occasional Newsletter #1 (To State Committee Members in this Area)
A newsletter of the Commission for Interracial Cooperation addressed to the Virginia State Committee members in the area of Richmond, Va. <br /><br />Excerpts: <br /><br />p.1 The one thing important is for the leaders of both races to be close enough to each other to know the needs, and, as far as possible, the thoughts, feelings and attitudes of each race toward the other. I see nothing constructive in saying "We have the best Negroes (or white folks) in the world" unless that is based upon first-hand knowledge of the actual conditions; surface impressions may not be trustworthy. <br /><br />I could recite number of illustrations where trusted leaders of both races are patiently, quietly and courageously facing these situations where there may be injustice and discrimination and are trying to change the attitude out of which unsatisfactory conditions grow, thus producing a by-product of understanding and mutual trust upon which all permanent adjustments must rest.<br /><br />p.2 Have there been any lynchings in your section or in your state thus far in 1928? If so give particulars.<br /><br />During the past few years, the Commission, among many other constructive services, has conducted a vigorous campaign agaist the practice of lynching, all too prevalent in most American states. During three of the past four years, the number of lynchings has reached the low annual mark of 16, against a former forty-year average of more than 100. Certainly the Commission would not lay claim to all the credit for this progress; many factors have contributed, not the least of which is the press, which has created a more enlightened public opinion.

On either side of here are men dressed in coattails stand on either side of her. The man to the left is pulling on her left arm and has "Dem" written on his chest. The man to her right is pulling on her right arm and has "Rep" written on his chest. At the bottom of the image is text that reads: "In the Hands of Her Friends"]<br /><br />The cover illustration is by C. D. Batchelor <br /><br />[Image Description: The second image is of a woman in a neoclassical white dress with her arms stretched out above her head and her fingers spread. Branches grow from her fingertips into a fruit bearing tree above her head. Behind her is a neoclassical building. On either side of her are the words "Woman Suffrage".]<br /><br />This image is from an original painting by Evelyn Rumsey Cary. The text at the bottom of the image, which was well known to suffragists, was taken from Proverbs 31:31.<br /><br /><em>“Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her own works praise her in the gates.”</em>

Educational Department, Victor Talking Machine Co."<br /><br />"'Americanization through music' A slogan of the hour. <br />Music is an universal language that needs no interpreter. It is the one common ground and most natural approach to the foreigner in welding him to the spirit of true Americanism.<br />A great movement is now sweeping the country to make firm and lasting the process of the melting pot,--to bring securely into the fold of American citizenry our adopted brothers from other lands....Song, universal in its appeal, is a deep and moving force. The Community Singing idea of war days must be perpetuated. It is productive of immeasurable good in this wholesome movement of Americanization. Nothing is more unifying and democratic than the group singing of old familiar and patriotic songs. Sing them with stirring band accompaniment,--strong, correct, inspiring!"<br /><br />Suggested song titles include "America," "Star Spangled Banner," "My Old Kentucky Home," "Battle Hymn of the Republic," "Believe Me, If All Those Endearing Young Charms," "Annie Laurie," and "Flow Gently Sweet Afton."

The Rockwell Report, May 1965 [American Nazi Party]
<span>Official monthly publication of the American Nazi Party, an organization founded by George Lincoln Rockwell in March 1959.<br /><br /></span><span>Cover title for this issue, "The Real Story: Left vs. Right." Slogan on cover: "White People! Unite & Fight!" <br /><br />Article by George Lincoln Rockwell entitled, "Our 'Fascist' Founding Fathers" argues that the American Nazi Party represents a GOLDEN MEAN between the Tyranny of Total Order on the Right and the Anarchy of Total Freedom on the Left.<br /><br />Rockwell rails against "Rabbit" Welch (Robert W. Welch, Jr.), the founder of the John Birch Society. (Welch promoted conspiracy theories, including the notion that President Dwight D. Eisenhower was secretly a Communist.) Rockwell is incensed that Welch has equated Communism and Nazism. <br /><br />p.7 "If the Founding Fathers were to come to life today, they would NOT BE BIRCHERS....had the Founding Fathers lived today, they would have been 'NAZIS', as the Jews call anyone who sticks up for the White Christain eople and Constitutional Government."<br /><br /></span>

Social Justice, February 13, 1939
Front and back covers of <em>Social Justice, </em>February 13, 1939. <br /><br /><em> Social Justice</em> was a national weekly periodical published by Father Charles Coughlin during the late 1930s and early 1940s<em>. </em>Couglin was a Canadian-American Roman Catholic priest based near Detroit, Michigan. Coughlin hosted a weekly radio show that reached an estimated 30 million listeners. <br /><br /><em>Social Justice</em> was controversial for publishing anti-Semitic polemics. Eventually, the periodical's mailing permit was revoked and Father Coughlin's radio show was forced off the air. <br /><br />Excerpts:<br /><br />Front cover: "Make Your Choices" <br />[Image Description: A man stands stroking his beard as he contemplates two statues, one of Abraham Lincoln and the other of Lenin.] <br /><br />"Today, this nation makes a mental pilgrimage to Springfield, Illinois, there to pay memorial tribute at the tomb of Abraham Lincoln. <br />The rough, honest frontiersman lawyer who became a wartime President of the United States, has become a symbol of the Typical American. He is the Poor Man's President, the Great Emancipator, the Commander-in-Chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, and a martyr because he opposed dis-union and the international bankers. <br /><br />Across the world, another tomb--that of Lenin in the Red Square of Moscow--is also a center of pilgrimage and the symbol of internationalism. <br /><br />Disciples of Lenin and followers of Lincoln are today in conflice in this country. And no American can be a 'neutral.' <br /><br />Which hero, Lenin or Lincoln? On which side are YOU--Americanism or Communism?"<br /><br />Back cover: "The 'Smut' Vendor"<br />[Image Description: A man stands before a newsstand, smoking a cigarette and holding out a salacious magazine to the viewer. Behind him the shelves are filled with periodicals with titles such as "Smut," "Scandal," "Slime," "Passion," and "Scum."] <br /><br />"Our Man of the Week is a merchandiser of sensation, of propaganda disguised as entertainment, and of outright subversion of morality. <br /><br />The artist has sought to catch the evil spirit of his menace. Readers of <em>Social Justice</em> were introduced last week to the 'Mystical Body of Satan'--on the racks of any modern newstand on may survey his work.<br /><br />Confident that America is a 'Christian' country, we have permitted to thrive and prosper off our indifference, a progressively flagrant affronting of common decency, to say nothing of Christian morals. <br /><br />Encouraged by our tolerance, the Smut Vendors have grown bolder: from off-color joke illustrated by daring cartoons, the magazines have retrograded rapidly into deliberate filth. Feminine nudity and bad taste in 'candid camera reporting' is a commonplace for the nation's children. <br /><br />The remedy is in YOUR hands. Tell your newsstand dealer what magazines offend and why. Tell the advertisers who support these magazines why you think their editorial contents ought not to be supported.<br /><br />A Legion of Decency some years ago cleaned up Hollywood's rotten films; let's clean up the newsstands!"
