Description:: The Joseph Echols and Evelyn Gibson Lowery Collection, 1946-2014, contains approximately 450 linear feet of personal papers, sermons, speeches, correspondence, SCLC and SCLC/WOMEN records, and hundreds of historical photographs and audiovisual records documenting the Lowery's struggle of justice and equality.
