Letter from Russ Freeman to Caleb Foote

Freeman, Russ (Quaker)

Description

Has arrived at his "experiment in rural culture." Visit with Bob Carter and family: he estimates he is 9/10 a pacifist, "but fears that it would look questionable if he tried to crawl onto the pacifist caravan (I almost said 'bandwagon' which would hardly do) at this late date. As you know my weakness at converting others -- I merely told him we were going to keep in touch with each other, etc." Recommends reading Richard Wright's How Bigger Was Born, a round out of the philosophy of Native Son.
