Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee

Description

The first half of this folder covers the years 1960 and 1961 and is largely comprised of agendas, meeting minutes, and reports from SNCC's annual conferences and steering committee meetings. Included later on are a number of informative documents which provide not only a first-hand account of the events of ""Bloody Sunday,"" but also highlight the organization's response. Rounding out the folder are a number of documents primarily relating to SNCC's efforts at desegregation in the South, with a particular focus on efforts in Little Rock, Danville, Americus, and Albany.
