Title A name given to the resource Southern Women and the South's Race Problem Description An account of the resource Pamphlet published by the Commission on Interracial Cooperation, written by Robert B. Eleazer, Educational Director. The pamphlet describes commission meetings in Memphis, Tn. and Atlanta, Ga., and the responsibility felt by southern white women (primarily church women), study and then improve the lives of black women and children in their cities. The need for day nurseries, kindergartens, clinics, playgrounds, better schools, improved housing and sanitation, safer conditions of travel, and especially the "unmeasured condemnation of lynching" are all noted. p. 2 "The purpose of this organization and its affiliated state and local committees is to bring about better understanding, justice and fair dealing between the white and colored races. The Commission believes that the white race, as the more fortunate group and the one responsible for the Negro's presence in America, is under obligation to be both just and generous toward the latter. It believes further that the welfare and even the racial integrity of the two groups can be effectively preserved in no other way."

Title A name given to the resource Popular Fallacies About Race Relations Description An account of the resource A pamphlet addressing resistance from white Americans to racial integration. Written by the Educational Director of the Commission on Interracial Cooperation. The writer, Robert B. Eleazer, refutes the "Curse of Ham" as a justification for slavery or servitude. He also argues against popular fallacies such as "the Negro is all right in his place;" "no genuine Negro ever showed real intelligence or abillity;" "the Negro has no worthy part in American history;" "Negroes want to break down the social line between the races;" and the idea of racial superiority. Excerpt: "Nobody knows which is the superior race--or whether there be one. All we can say is that we differ in physical characteristics and in degree and kind of development....It behooves us all to be humble; to remember that we are all human beings, with mutual obligations of respect and good will."

Westbrook, Federal Council of Churches, April 23, 1928 Description An account of the resource Letter from Mary L. Westbrook (Mrs. Richard W. Westbrook), Chairman, Church Women's Committee on Race Relations, Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America, Inc. (Federal Council of Churches), sent to Adele Goodman Clark in her capacity as a representative of the National League of Women Voters at the 1926 Interracial Conference of Church Women. The letter describes a second conference planned for September 1928, and requests Clark begin planning to send delegates from the NLWV. Excerpts: "The past year and a half has disclosed problems which cause us to believe that there is need for the leaders of church women's organizations throughout the Nation to meet in conference again to discuss these problems, and to devise further plans and means of carrying forward the effective work begun so auspiciously following the epoch-making Interracial Conference of Church Women at Eagles Mere, Pa., Spetember 21-22, 1926, held by this Commission in cooperatin with the Council of Women for Home Missions and the National Board of the YWCA. This conference requested the Commission to form a Church Women's Committee on Race Relations, and this Committee, including representatives of practically every religious organization affiliated with the Federal Council of Churches, has been actively promoting parts of the program adopted at the Eagles Mere Conference. Correspondence with church women's groups in all parts of the Country has disclosed an unusual activity in race relations among them with a growing consciousness about the need of religion applied to the race problem. In many sections local committees were already in existence or have been formed; regional conferences in the Philadelphia and Chicago areas have been held with fruitful results." <a href="https://images.socialwelfare.library.vcu.edu/items/browse?tags=Interracial+Conference+of+Church+Women" target="_blank" title="Documents related to the conference" rel="noreferrer noopener">See all documents</a> related to the Interracial Conference of Church Women.

The Eagles Mere conference was noteworthy because it brought together white and black women leaders to study the possibilities of larger cooperation. Also of significance, delegates to the conference represented both the North and the South, giving the discussions a nationwide scope (Federal Council Bulletin, September-October, 1926, p.7). <a href="https://images.socialwelfare.library.vcu.edu/items/browse?tags=Interracial+Conference+of+Church+Women" target="_blank" title="documents related to Interracial Conference of Church Women" rel="noreferrer noopener">See all documents</a> related to this conference.

Title A name given to the resource Church Women Explore Interracial Paths, Federal Council Bulletin, September-October, 1926 Description An account of the resource Pages 7-8 (front and back) removed from Federal Council Bulletin, September-October, 1926. The article, "Church Women Explore Interracial Paths," details an interracial conference held on September 21-22, 1926 at Eagles Mere, Pa. The conference was organized by the Commission on the Church and Race Relations of the Federal Council of Churchs, the Council of Women for Home Missions, and the National Board of the Y.W.C.A. It was attended by delegates from numerous denominations and organizations. Adele Clark of Richmond, Va. attended representing the National League of Women Voters. The object of the conference, according to the chair Mrs. Richard W. Westbrook (Mary L. Westbrook), was "(1) To enlarge the scope of interracial thinking and to enlist the women of the churches more actively in plans and programs for improving the relations between the white and colored groups in America; (2) To discuss methods of better interracial organization through churches and their auxiliaries so that women may more effectively act on local interracial conditions; (3) To exchange concrete experiences from groups of women that have already attempted to carry out interracial programs; (4) To study the past experience of organizations that have done such work, to learn both from the sucesses and failures of such efforts how best to proceed in the future; (5) To understand better the present trend of feeling and opinion in race relations that the Churches may more effectively work for interracial goodwill and cooperation." <a href="https://images.socialwelfare.library.vcu.edu/items/browse?tags=Interracial+Conference+of+Church+Women" target="_blank" title="Documents related to the Interracial Conference of Church Women" rel="noreferrer noopener">See all documents</a> related to the conference.

Title A name given to the resource Burnt Cork and Crime Description An account of the resource Pamphlet published by the Commission on Interracial Cooperation, an organization which opposed lynching and promoted interracial dialogue and cooperation. Described on the cover as "stories summarized from press reports," the pamphlets relates incidents in which crimes were committed by persons posing as African Americans. These imposters blackened their faces and hands with burnt cork. Other stories describe false accusations by whites, and often white women, against black men. Excerpt from p.1 "In St. Louis some time ago a robber caught with blackened face stated that there was an organized group of white bandits who always operated under the mask of color. In this way, he said, it was easy to fool the officers, and in some cases even to assist in the search for the suspected Negro and 'identify' him when caught." p. 6 "The meaning is obvious, however, as it relates to hasty judgment, hysteria, mob violence, and the assumption that every Negro is guilty who anybody seeks to accuse. It suggests also that the statistics of Negro crime, now happily changing for the better, might be further lightened if all the facts were known and the mask of color torn away."

Description An account of the resource A pamphlet explaining the origin and mission of the <a href="https://images.socialwelfare.library.vcu.edu/items/browse?tags=Commission+on+Interracial+Cooperation" target="_blank" title="materials related to the CIC" rel="noreferrer noopener">Commission on Interracial Cooperation</a>, an organization founded in January, 1919 in Atlanta. The group sought to further "mutual understanding, peace, and good will" between the white and black communities. The group opposed lynching and mob violence, and sought to improve interracial attitudes, correct injustices and improve conditions affecting African Americans. The CIC was a moderate group that called itself a "movement" instead of an organization. "The philosophy of the movement is not that of 'seeking to solve the race problem,' but simply that of taking the next practicable step in the direction of interracial justice and good will" (p. 4).
