| Title: | Oral history interview with Sarah Outterbridge |
| Date: | 1982 July 24 |
| Description: | Oral history in which Sarah Outterbridge primarily discusses her experiences with CORE, including its strategies, a training workshop, and the role of local chapter leaders such as her father Rev. Marion Jones, Bill Thomas, Lewis Brandon, Wendell Scott, her sister Betty, and B. Elton Cox. She provides many details of the 1962-63 picketing campaign of the movie theatres, S&W cafeteria, and McDonald's, including the November 1962 mass arrests that resulted in her prolonged incarceration at the old polio hospital.
