- Consists of correspondence and documents related to the Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change. Contents include planning materials for the 1976 and 1977 celebrations of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday, planning materials and programs for additional 1976 King Center programs on full employment and nonviolence, and promotional materials on King Center internships. Also includes position papers and promotional materials from the National Committee on Full Employment and the Full Employment Action Council.
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:
