- Description:
- This letter is a response from Senator Albert Gore to a couple opposed to the "Parents Voluntary Plan" in Nashville. This plan, according to Gore, is "a proposal of local citizens for a plan to meet the requirements of the decision of the Supreme Court on segregation." Gore believes that local citizens should have the right to recommend a plan for the administration of their schools. Identifying information has been removed to protect the identities of private citizens.
