Cameras film the scene, and a white reporter reaches toward the table to adjust a microphone. Senator Johnson, the first African American elected to the Georgia Senate since Reconstruction, reports on a fact-finding mission he and other African American leaders from around the state conducted in Crawfordville on Sunday, October 3. Johnson asserts that \"the Crawfordville situation is sitting on a powder keg.\" He cites the lack of communication between the African American and white communities as \"the most disturbing aspect about the situation\" along with the fact that the white leadership has \"no plans at all for the solution of the situation.\"","In the second part of the clip, Johnson continues speaking about the situation in Crawfordville. He alludes to a threat made by Governor Carl Sanders to send the African American students boycotting the local African American high school to reform school. Johnson declares the solution to the problem in Crawfordville is not to send students to reform school. Instead, according to Johnson, \"what is now needed is courageous and forthright leadership.\" He suggests that the governor should encourage local leaders to make desegregation a reality and confirms that \"the transferral of students to schools on a non-discriminatory basis is an essential part of any plan of desegregation.\"","Crawfordville, Taliaferro County, Georgia, a small, predominantly African American community, began experiencing racial problems in the spring of 1965. That spring, the local school board refused to renew the contracts of six African American teachers. While the board did not give a reason for refusing to renew the contracts, members of the African American community asserted it was because of the civil rights activities of the teachers. The teachers had advocated for the use of the only gym in the county, located at the white high school, by the county's African American students. Also that spring, eighty-eight African American students applied to transfer from the local African American school to the all-white Alexander Stephens Institute. Although the school was scheduled to desegregate that fall, all of the white students transferred from the Taliaferro County school to schools in surrounding counties. With no white students enrolled in the local school, the county school board closed the white school and sent all of the students who applied for transfer back to Murden High School, the African American high school. Unfortunately, the African American students were not told of these arrangements until after the registration period had passed for the schools in neighboring Greene, Wilkes, and Warren Counties. African American students protested the continued segregation by refusing to attend the local high school, establishing a Freedom School under the direction of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), and holding demonstrations every morning at the central location where white students where transported to schools in neighboring counties. Finally a federal court appointed state school superintendent Claude Purcell to administer the Taliaferro County schools. Purcell ordered schools in Greene, Wilkes, and Warren Counties to admit the African American students who had originally applied for school transfers in Taliaferro County. On November 17, 1965, African American students from Taliaferro County began riding the buses with white students to integrated schools in neighboring counties.","Reporter: Morris, Aubrey R.","Title supplied by cataloger."],"dc_format":["video/mp4"],"dcterms_identifier":["Clip number: wsbn48724"],"dcterms_language":["eng"],"dcterms_publisher":null,"dc_relation":null,"dc_right":["http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"dcterms_is_part_of":["Original found in the WSB-TV newsfilm collection."],"dcterms_subject":["Busing for school integration--Georgia--Crawfordville","School integration--Georgia--Crawfordville","Segregation in education--Georgia--Crawfordville","Press conferences--Georgia--Atlanta","Legislators--Georgia","African American civil rights workers--Georgia--Atlanta","Governors--Georgia","African American students--Georgia--Crawfordville","Federal-city relations--Georgia--Augusta","Race relations","African Americans--Civil rights--Georgia--Crawfordville","Crawfordville (Ga.)--Race relations--History--20th century"],"dcterms_title":["WSB-TV newsfilm clip of state senator Leroy Johnson speaking about racial tensions over school desegregation following a fact-finding mission to Crawfordville from Atlanta, Georgia, 1965 October 4"],"dcterms_type":["MovingImage"],"dcterms_provenance":["Walter J.

The clip's audio and video is inconsistent; comments and visuals may not be completely recorded. Dr. King emphasizes the connection between political and economic power and indicates the significance of SCOPE's plans to assist African Americans with voter registration.","Following a break in the clip, there is audio of King commenting on his experience traveling in Africa, but the visual is missing. An unidentified man leads the audience in singing \"We shall not be moved\" while King sits on the dais. King cites SCOPE's potential influence by pointing out the number of African Americans elected to serve in the 1966 Georgia General Assembly--two State Senators and at least seven members of the House of Representatives. King specifically commends Georgia State Senators Leroy Johnson and Horace T. Ward. In January, 1966 when the newly elected legislators were to begin their terms of service, one of the African Americans elected to the House of Representatives, Julian Bond, was prevented by the legislature from taking his seat for statements he made supporting a Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee statement against the Vietnam War. The Untied States Supreme Court in December 1966 ruled that the legislature's actions were unconstitutional and Bond was sworn in to office in January, 1967, serving in the House of Representatives until 1974.","King urges his audience to support the over one-thousand SCOPE volunteers coming to the South during the summer. He explains SCOPE volunteers will \"engage in community organization and political education and increase the number of Negro registered voters.\"  King asserts that with hard work, guidance, and cooperation, it will be possible to double the number of registered African American voters. He asks the audience to \"go back to your counties with a commitment and a determination where the SCOPE project is concerned\"; he also entreats the audience to accept the white volunteers as they would African American volunteers.","King provides a brief overview of the progress African Americans have made towards achieving an end to legal segregation but points out there are still economic and social barriers to overcome. Emphasizing the need to improve African American economic status, King rhetorically asks a list of questions about the benefit of legally being permitted to do something that is not economically feasible. King pledges that through voting African Americans will be able to overcome economic and social barriers.","At a Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) board meeting held in Baltimore, Maryland March 30 through April 1 leaders agreed to support the Summer Community Organization and Political Education (SCOPE) project which was headed by SCLC member Hosea Williams. Described as an expansion of the 1964 Mississippi Freedom Summer, SCOPE planned to send northern volunteers to communities in several southern states, including Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Alabama, and Florida to work with local leaders in voter registration, community organization, and political organization. Civil rights leaders, anticipating the passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act, hoped community volunteers would assist federal voting registrars to increase the number of African Americans registered to vote. SCOPE volunteers were recruited primarily from northern colleges and universities and were screened in part based on dress and appearance in an attempt to counter the \"hippy\" perceptions attributed to Mississippi Freedom Summer volunteers. Volunteers gathered for training in Atlanta the third week in June before being assigned to various southern counties for the ten-week program.","Title supplied by cataloger.","IMLS Grant, 2008.","Digibeta Center Cut (4 x 3) downconvert from HDD5 1080/23.98PsF film transfer."],"dc_format":["video/mp4"],"dcterms_identifier":["Clip number: wsbn48203"],"dcterms_language":["eng"],"dcterms_publisher":null,"dc_relation":null,"dc_right":["http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"dcterms_is_part_of":["Original found in the WSB-TV newsfilm collection."],"dcterms_subject":["African American civil rights workers--Georgia--Atlanta","African Americans--Civil rights--Southern States","African Americans--Politics and government","African Americans--Suffrage--Southern States","Civil rights movements--Georgia--Atlanta","Civil rights workers--Southern States","Voting--Georgia--Atlanta","Voter registration--Southern States","We shall not be moved (Song)","African American legislators--Georgia","Legislators--Georgia","Social justice--United States","Poverty--United States","African Americans--Economic conditions--20th century"],"dcterms_title":["Series of WSB-TV newsfilm clips of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. speaking about the Summer Community Organization and Political Education (SCOPE) project, Atlanta, Georgia, 1965 June"],"dcterms_type":["MovingImage"],"dcterms_provenance":["Walter J.
