Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee
Description
The first half of this folder is composed of a rather wide assortment of documents detailing the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee's early efforts at desegregation. Although no one individual or locale receives a majority of the attention here, the issues surrounding the murders of Herbert Lee and Louis Allen seem to stand out the most. Additionally, a position paper, entitled "Notes on Organizing to Overcome Fear," provides important insights into the psychology of the civil rights movement at this time. The latter half of the folder is far more focused and consists almost exclusively of interviews and articles about SNCC's 4th chairman, Stokely Carmichael.
