Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee

Description

The bulk of this folder is composed of pamphlets and press releases which recount the resistance SNCC received in the South as a result of its civil rights efforts. What most stands out, however, are a series of meeting minutes, transcripts, and staff reports which provide insight into the inner workings of the organization. The folder concludes with a set of newsletters and speech transcripts which shed light on SNCC's shifting support towards Black nationalism in the latter half of the 1960s.
