Description
Photograph article dated June 4, 1965 partially reads, "The answer to the race problem is motivation not integration, said a prominent California Negro attorney. 'Instead of picketing the Bank of America, we must build our own bank,' Donald Warden, founder and national chairman of the Afro-American Association, told the Encino Republican Women's Club Tuesday at a luncheon meeting at the Queens Arms restaurant, Encino. Founded in 1962, the Afro-American Association has more than 30,000 members in chapters from New York to California and seeks to 'provide initiative and drive for the Negro people.'"
