- From the Ellin (Joseph and Nancy) Freedom Summer Collection; Memo from Jon Else, presumably of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) to all college contacts, dated November 1, 1964. Labeled "Urgent," the memo encourages immediate action in the form of telegrams to Democratic leaders and expanded media coverage. According to Else, the up-coming national election provides an opportunity to draw national attention to the racial and political situation in Mississippi.
