Kinoy--Legal documents re: COFO v. Rainey, 1964 : Brief, 1964 (Arthur Kinoy papers, circa 1930-2003; Z: Accessions, M2007-010, Box 8, Folder 21)

Kinoy, Arthur
Description
Included in this folder are 1964 notes from a meeting in New York that took place after the Democratic National Convention, in which assorted civil rights organizations tried to work out differences among themselves and develop an organizational structure for making the Freedom Summer project into a wider civil rights cause. The notes offer fascinating insights into the different organizations' roles in Freedom Summer. The September 22nd letter is presumably a cover letter for the meeting notes. The appeal of a lower court's dismissal of the charges against Neshoba County, Mississippi, and sheriff's deputies (among others) in COFO v. Rainey is also included, and handwritten notes--presumably on the appeal-are also in the folder.
