- Description:
- Consists of correspondence of E.T. Kehrer with staff of the A. Philip Randolph Institute (APRI) and its Atlanta chapter. Topics include requests from Kehrer to APRI executive director Bayard Rustin for APRI educational materials, organizing of APRI publicity events, and planning for a 1971 voter registration program in Atlanta.
The records, 1964-1979, of the Southern Office of the AFL-CIO Civil Rights Department consist primarily of correspondence and related reports, surveys, statements, and newspaper clippings. Much of the correspondence is between Director E.T. (Al) Kehrer and various AFL-CIO departments, notably his superiors Don Slaiman (1965-1974) and William Pollard (1974-1979). There is also substantial correspondence between Kehrer and the AFL-CIO state and city labor councils in the South; apprenticeship and training programs; a wide range of groups and persons concerned with community action and social reform issues, principally in the field of civil rights; and political figures. - Metadata URL:
