- Description:
- Consists of correspondence and documents of the National Institute of Labor Education (NILE). Contents include 1965 correspondence between NILE Director Joseph Mire, Southern Regional Council Director Leslie Dunbar, and E.T. Kehrer regarding the planning and funding of a program of training workshops for union members on human relations and social issues, proposal documents for that program, and a report by Mire on one of the workshops held at the University of Georgia in 1966.
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:
