The interview is conducted at a cash register inside of a grocery store, presumably Buehler's. The spokesperson reports \"out of our seventy-one employees, fifty-three of them are negroes, we have several assistant managers who are negroes, and we are placing one as store manager at 90 Broad Street as of December the first.\" The clip jumps, truncating a question posed by an African American reporter who asks the Buehler's spokesperson to account for why there are African Americans who \"have never been in the retirement home.\" The spokesperson responds that, based on the information he has received from the trustees who operate the retirement home, \"there were very few black people whom ever made application to make this their home.\" He is cut off in mid-sentence by another jump in the clip. The next section of the clip has no audio track; it shows the Buehler's spokesperson and a reporter filmed from behind, while WSB reporter John Pruitt, listening intently, is filmed from the front.","On November 27, 1968, executives of Buehler's Super Markets dropped a one million dollar lawsuit against the Concerned Clergymen of Atlanta. The lawsuit charged the organization with attempting to extort fifty thousand dollars in donations on an annual basis from the supermarket chain. The suit was brought in response to demonstrations organized by the Concerned Clergymen of Atlanta, who challenged the employment practices, wage scale, and the price and quality of the goods sold at Buehler's. An additional complaint that fueled the demonstrations was that Buehler's also held interests in a retirement home in Peoria, Illinois that was not integrated.","The Concerned Clergymen of Atlanta rejected ever having made such a request to Buehler's management; the group noted that an individual clergyman had suggested that fifty thousand dollars a year be donated to local Atlanta charities, but that the suggestion was not accepted by other members of the organization. Furthermore, a proposal had never been presented to anyone from Buehler's. An agreement was reached between the two parties when Buehler's management pledged to make improvements in their stores and to recommend integration of the retirement home in Illinois.","Reporter: Pruitt, John (Television news anchor)","Title supplied by cataloger."],"dc_format":["video/mp4"],"dcterms_identifier":["Clip number: wsbn55124"],"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":["Race relations","Discrimination in employment--Georgia","Discrimination in employment-Georgia--Atlanta","Discrimination in housing","Discrimination in housing--Illinois--Peoria","Retirement--Illinois--Peoria","Older African Americans","Older African Americans--Illinois--Peoria","Older African Americans--Housing","Older African Americans--Housing--Illinois--Peoria","African Americans--Housing","African Americans--Housing--Illinois--Peoria","Older blacks","Older blacks--Illinois--Peoria","Older blacks--Housing","Older blacks--Housing--Illinois--Peoria","Minority older people--United States.","Minority older people--Housing.","Minority older people--Housing--Illinois--Peoria.","Minority older people--Illinois--Peoria.","Minorities--Housing.","Minorities--Housing--Illinois--Peoria.","Civil rights--Georgia--Atlanta","Civil rights--Illinois--Peoria","African Americans--Civil rights","African Americans--Civil rights--Georgia--Atlanta","African Americans--Civil rights--Illinois--Peoria","African Americans--Segregation--Illinois--Peoria","Segregation--Illinois--Peoria","African Americans--Georgia--Social conditions--20th century","African Americans--Illinois--Social conditions--20th century","African Americans--Social conditions--1964-1975","Whites--Georgia--Social conditions--20th century","Whites--Illinois--Social conditions--20th century","Whites--Social conditions--1964-1975","Race discrimination--Illinois--Peoria","Race discrimination--Georgia--Atlanta","Racism--Georgia--Atlanta","Racism--Illinois--Peoria","Prejudices--Georgia--Atlanta","Prejudices--Illinois--Peoria","Supermarkets--Georgia--Atlanta","Supermarkets--Employees--Georgia--Atlanta","Supermarkets--Management","Grocery trade--Georgia--Atlanta","Grocery trade--Employees--Georgia--Atlanta","Grocery trade--Management","Employee selection","Employee selection--Georgia--Atlanta","Employees--Georgia--Atlanta","Older people--Housing","Older people--Housing--Illinois--Peoria","Older people--Care","Older people--Care--Illinois--Peoria","Old age homes","Old age homes--Illinois--Peoria","Congregate housing","Congregate housing--Illinois--Peoria","Congregate housing--Administration","Housing","Housing--Illinois--Peoria","Housing management","Housing management--Illinois--Peoria","Housing policy","Housing policy--Illinois--Peoria","Old age home trustees","Old age home trustees--Illinois--Peoria","Personnel management--Georgia--Atlanta","Corporations--Sociological aspects--Georgia--Atlanta","Reporters and reporting--Georgia--Atlanta","Television journalists--Georgia--Atlanta","African American television journalists--Georgia--Atlanta","Press-Georgia--Atlanta","Cash registers--Georgia--Atlanta","Microphone","Peoria (Ill.)--Race relations","Georgia--Social conditions--20th century","Illinois--Social conditions--20th century","United States--Race relations"],"dcterms_title":["WSB-TV newsfilm clip of a man talking about the low number of African Americans in a retirement community, Atlanta, Georgia, 1968 November 27"],"dcterms_type":["MovingImage"],"dcterms_provenance":["Walter J.

A caravan of tour buses drives along a highway; demonstrators serve themselves food inside of the gymnasium at Morehouse College; Alberta Williams King addresses a large group of people in front of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthplace at 501 Auburn Avenue in Atlanta; and Coretta Scott King, Reverend Hosea Williams, and Reverend Ralph D. Abernathy speak at a Poor People's Campaign rally at the Atlanta Civic Center.","The clip, which is approximately ten minutes long, opens with a procession of tour buses driving down a highway. This is followed by a shot of a tour bus parked on a street, and then by a shot of an African American man helping passengers off of a bus. Next, a line of people gather inside of Archer Hall (Morehouse College's gymnasium), and serve themselves food from a long row of tables stocked with casseroles and prepared dishes. Next, Alberta Williams King (Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s mother) speaks to a large group of people, predominantly African American, who have gathered outside of King's childhood home on Auburn Avenue in Atlanta; she recalls some of her son's childhood activities in the neighborhood. As she speaks, she rests her hands on Reverend Howard Creecy, Sr.'s shoulder. The clip jumps, and for a moment, she appears to be taken over by grief. After another jump in the clip, the crowd gathered on Auburn Avenue sings \"We Shall Overcome.\"","The next shot is taken inside of an auditorium (presumably the Atlanta Civic Center) at a rally, where Coretta Scott King addresses a predominantly African American audience from a podium. She appeals to Atlanta residents to set an example for the rest of the nation by eradicating hunger, unemployment and inadequate housing, and notes \". . . right here in Atlanta, we are challenged to do something about these problems because we have the opportunity to become a model city to set the example for the other cities of this nation.\" Here, she is presumably speaking about Atlanta's participation in the Model Cities Program, an urban relief initiative administered by the Department of Housing and Urban Development that emphasized community engagement, urban rehabilitation,and robust social services. In 1968, Atlanta became one of the first eleven cities selected to participate in the program. She addresses women directly, noting that they have a \"special role to play\" in fulfilling the dreams of Martin Luther King, and of instilling \"true values\" in their children. She warns her audience that the struggle will become more difficult, and recites Langston Hughes' poem of struggle and perseverance \"Mother to Son,\" in which an African American mother informs her son \"Life for me ain't been no crystal stair.\" Invoking the faith and determination of the poem's protagonist, King concludes that such qualities will bring about a new world \"where men can really be free and live in peace.\" She receives a standing ovation from the audience as she leaves the podium. This is followed by several shots of the audience, interspersed with a brief shot of Reverend Hosea Williams speaking at the podium. As the camera captures shots of the audience, the audio track includes fragmented comments from Williams on the loudspeaker about traveling from Marks, Mississippi (one of the points of origin for many Poor People's Campaign participants), and a demonstrator being punched in the eye by a policeman. Coretta Scott King is shown seated in the audience listening to Williams. Due to constant breaks in the footage, none of Williams' comments are captured completely.","Next, Reverend Ralph David Abernathy addresses the audience at the podium. He notes that he has marched approximately forty-five miles in the past several days, and remarks on his extensive travel and public speaking engagements in the four weeks since King's death. He states that he and other civil rights activists are \"sick and tired of going to Washington\" to demonstrate, and remarks that this is the last time they will be returning. Abernathy then enacts a scenario where President Lyndon B. Johnson asks his aides to look outside the windows of the White House to determine if demonstrators are approaching outside, and they confirm the arrival of Poor People's Campaign participants in increasing numbers. President Johnson then orders his aides to \"look out of the east window and see if anybody is coming.\" Abernathy says that he can hear them saying \"Mr. President, there is a number of them coming out of the east.\" Continuing, Abernathy says that he can hear President Johnson say \"run over to the west window and see if anybody is coming from the west . . .\" The aides report \"Mr. President, they're coming up out of Milwaukee. Father Groppi has a group [a reference to the Midwestern Catholic priest and civil rights activist Father James Groppi]. They're coming out of Chicago, they're coming out of Cleveland. They're coming out of St. Louis.\" Abernathy then says that he can hear Johnson say \"But I want you to check the far west and see if anybody is coming from the far west.\" His aides then report back \"Mr. President, we see a whole Indian reservation coming from Colorado.\" After a jump in the clip, Abernathy once again portrays Johnson's staff exclaiming \"In fact, Mr. President, they're coming from the east, they're coming from the west. They're coming from the north, they're coming from the south. In fact they're coming in such large numbers that no man can number.\" The clip jumps and Abernathy continues, noting \"every day I look in the mirror, I love Ralph Abernathy more and more,\" a sentiment shared by his children and his wife. The clip jumps to a quick shot of the audience applauding Abernathy, then loses sound; the clip concludes with a silent shot of Abernathy continuing his speech.","Following Dr. Martin Luther King's assassination on April 4, 1968, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference vowed to continue work on the Poor People's Campaign in his memory. Cooperating with other civil rights and relief organizations, SCLC members planned a six-week event in Washington, D.C. that lasted from May 2 to June 19 to emphasize the plight of the nation's poor and to persuade the passage of federal legislation that would improve the economic and social conditions of the impoverished. SCLC leaders organized several regional caravans to travel to Washington, D.C. A delegation of approximately five hundred people from Mississippi and Alabama arrived on buses in Atlanta on May 9 to rest before they resumed travel to Washington; food and lodging were provided by private Atlanta residents and members of local churches. While in Atlanta, Poor People's Campaign participants viewed King's birthplace and original burial site at South-View cemetery (his remains were transferred several times after his initial burial; as of 2011, they are at the King Center), and attended a preliminary rally at the Atlanta Civic Center. The crowd at the rally drew an audience of approximately thirteen thousand people, and included speakers Coretta Scott King, Ralph D. Abernathy and Hosea Williams; musical performances were provided by Diana Ross and the Supremes, the Temptations, Stevie Wonder, and Gladys Knight and the Pips. Poor People's Campaign demonstrators traveled onward to Washington, where they lived in Resurrection City, a tent settlement on the Mall, and protested at numerous federal agencies on behalf of economic justice. The Poor People's March on Washington, held on June 19, signified the end of the campaign.","Title supplied by cataloger.","Title originally read \"WSB-TV newsfilm clip of Coretta Scott King and Reverend Ralph D.

Next reverend Ralph D. Abernathy, head of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), is seen standing with other African American men in front of a microphone; at one point Reverend A. D. King, Dr. Martin Luther King's brother, is seen among the men. Abernathy, wearing a turtleneck and a jumpsuit, announces SCLC will begin the Poor People's Campaign on Monday, April 29 in Washington, D.C. as had been planned before the April 4 assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Abernathy reports that he has agreed upon plans for the campaign with other SCLC leaders during recent meetings held in Clayton County, Georgia. Abernathy indicates the purpose of the \"militant, nonviolent\" campaign is to force Congress to recognize the \"national emergency\" and \"to deal with the issues of poverty and racism in the United States.\" He emphasizes that the crisis is that \"millions of poor people are desperate for decent jobs and secure incomes.\" The campaign will begin April 29 when Abernathy and about one hundred others will meet with national leaders and \"present our demands for redress of our grievances.\" After these meetings, Abernathy reports that he will return to Memphis on May 2 where he will begin the march to D.C. by placing a memorial at the Loraine Motel where Dr. King was assassinated; the clip's audio fades during his comments.","Abernathy announces that in addition to the march from Memphis, other marches will begin in Mississippi, Chicago, and Boston. The clip breaks and Abernathy asserts that Dr. King's sacrifice for poor people will not be in vain. He declares the intention to challenge racism and oppression of the poor. He lists several examples of challenges to underprivileged people in the United States and elsewhere; his comment are not completely recorded.","Following a break in the clip, Abernathy stresses that the country must begin healing and putting its \"almost limitless resources at the service of people instead of things.\" Abernathy invites those who \"really believe in the dream of the founding fathers ... and the dream of Martin Luther King\" to participate in the Poor People's Campaign. After these statements Abernathy answers reporters' questions, indicating that the campaign will present specific, predetermined demands. After a clip break, Abernathy asserts that the Poor People's Campaign isn't a \"health campaign\" or publicity stunt. The clip breaks again and Abernathy reports that he anticipates thousands of people will come to Washington, D.C. before the campaign is over.","Following the April 4, 1968 assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) voted that reverend Ralph D. Abernathy take over the organization's leadership as had been outlined by Dr. King before his death.

She also emphasizes that Dr. King chose Abernathy to be his successor to head SCLC, partly because Dr. King felt Abernathy \"could express and interpret his views on nonviolence better than anyone else.\" Mrs. King goes on to thank other \"friends of goodwill\" who have helped the family.","After these initial comments Mrs. King reads from a prepared statement. Although Mrs. King declares that she \"would have preferred to be alone at this time with my children,\" she chose to \"put aside traditional family considerations\" because of the importance of Dr. King's work on behalf of African Americans and all poor people. The clip breaks, and she concludes her statement by stressing that when people in bondage are free and war and poverty ends, \"I know my husband will rest in a long-deserved peace.\" After reading her statement, Mrs. King gathers her papers and stands up. Reverend Abernathy kisses Mrs. King on the cheek before she and Lee walk toward the door. Andrew Young also briefly speaks to Mrs. King. Outside African American children and adults line up in front of a building, allowing a camera to pass them and walk through a door. A United States flag flies at half-mast.","The clip breaks again, returning to Mrs. King's statement. Mrs. King affirms that Dr. King \"faced the possibility of death without bitterness or hatred\" while still struggling \"with every ounce of his energy to save\" a sick society from itself. She asserts that the religious nature of her home has helped ease the burden of Dr. King's death for the family. Mrs. King declares her determination to continue Dr. King's work, inviting those \"who loved and admired him would join us in fulfilling his dream.\" The clip ends showing again the United States flag at half-mast.","Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated on April 4, 1968 in Memphis, Tennessee, where he was with other leaders from the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) supporting local sanitation workers in a strike. Following Dr. King's death reverend Ralph D. Abernathy led SCLC for several years; Mrs. Coretta Scott King also became more active in the civil and human rights movement.","Title supplied by cataloger."],"dc_format":["video/mp4"],"dcterms_identifier":["Clip number: wsbn53564"],"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 women--Georgia--Atlanta","African American civil rights workers--Georgia--Atlanta","Civil rights workers--Georgia--Atlanta","African American clergy--Georgia--Atlanta","Clergy--Georgia--Atlanta","Press conferences--Georgia--Atlanta","Reporters and reporting--Georgia--Atlanta","Tables--Georgia--Atlanta","Microphone","Grief--Georgia--Atlanta","Flags--United States","King, Martin Luther, Jr., 1929-1968--Assassination"],"dcterms_title":["WSB-TV newsfilm clip of Coretta Scott King  following the assassination of her husband, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., speaking at a press conference held at Ebenezer Baptist Church, Atlanta, Georgia, 1968 April 6"],"dcterms_type":["MovingImage"],"dcterms_provenance":["Walter J.

Alberta Williams King speaks to an audience in front of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthplace at 501 Auburn Avenue; Reverend Joseph E. Boone speaks to mourners at King's original burial site at South-View Cemetery; Coretta Scott King addresses a Poor People's Campaign rally at the Atlanta Civic Center; and Gladys Knight and the Pips and Stevie Wonder perform for the rally audience. Some images in the clip repeat.","The clip, which is approximately seven minutes long, begins with several shots taken of a march in Atlanta that precedes the Poor People's Campaign in Washington, D.C. Shots of the march are interspersed with a close-up shot of a group of spectators; several people carry a banner that reads \"I'm on my way Poor people's march on Washington.\" Next, a large group of African American people serve themselves food from a series of tables filled with casseroles and prepared foods inside of the Archer Hall gymnasium at Morehouse College. A reporter (off camera) asks an unidentified elderly African American woman from Mississippi how far she is traveling; she tells him that she is going to Washington, D.C., that she will stay there \"for a while,\" then return to Mississippi; she then agrees that she may have to return to Washington \"again and again,\" in the reporter's words.  This is followed by a brief shot of Ebenezer Baptist Church, taken from a distance; the Atlanta skyline is visible, and several buses are parked in front of the church.","Next, Martin Luther King, Sr., Coretta Scott King, and several of the King children are gathered together amidst a crowd on what is presumably the unveiling of a plaque memorializing King's birthplace at 501 Auburn Avenue on May 9, 1968; this is followed by a shot of passersby looking down at the ground, and then by a shot of the plaque, which reads \"Martin Luther King, Jr. was born in this house January 15, 1929.\" Next, an eleven-piece Motown band performs at the Poor People's Campaign rally in front of a banner that reads \"Poor People's Campaign benefit\"; the band was flown in by Motown Record Corporation president Berry Gordy, along with several prominent Motown acts that included Diana Ross and the Supremes, Gladys Knight and the Pips, Stevie Wonder, and the Temptations.  Shots of Gladys Knight and the Pips performing are interspersed with shots of the audience; fragments of songs are recorded on the audio track. Next, Coretta Scott King addresses the audience from a microphone; she says \"I'm sure my late husband is smiling on the city of Atlanta tonight for . . . this enthusiastic and overwhelming welcome that you are displaying in your presence here and for the support of the Poor People's Campaign . . .\" The audience sings \"We shall overcome,\" accompanied by the band onstage.","Next, in a silent section of the clip, two school buses are parked alongside South-View Cemetery. The camera pans to the right, towards Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s original burial site at the cemetery, where a large crowd has gathered beneath an awning beside King's grave. Reverend Joseph E. Boone speaks to the crowd as he stands next to King's headstone; one mourner wipes away tears with a handkerchief. There are several more shots of the crowd at the cemetery, of passengers returning to the buses, of Boone, of the eternal flame at King's grave, and a close-up of King's epitaph, which reads \"Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. 1929-1968 'Free at last free at last, thank God almighty I'm free at last.'\" This is followed by a school bus pulling into the Atlanta Stadium parking lot, and a crowd of people marching down the street past the stadium. People stand in a parking lot, unload their luggage from the tour buses and wait in lines with their luggage on the ground. The sound returns, and background noise is audible as several shots from the march shown at the beginning of the clip are repeated. Next, a group of people wait outside of what appears to be an academic building, presumably at Morehouse College; this is followed by people serving themselves food from large tables, and sitting down to eat inside of the Archer Hall gymnasium at Morehouse College.","The clip returns to footage of the audience at the Poor People's Campaign rally, interspersed with shots of Gladys Knight and the Pips (William \"Red\" Guest, Edward Patten, and Merald \"Bubba\" Knight), and a shot of Stevie Wonder performing. The audio track is uneven; fragments of songs are heard along with background noise. Next, Coretta Scott King is introduced to the audience; she says \"At this time in our nation there is a need to rededicate ourselves and recommit ourselves to bring about the kind of society and the kind of world where men and women, boys and girls can really live in dignity and freedom and justice and in peace.\" This is followed by several close-ups of members of the audience singing \"We Shall Overcome.\" As the song ends, Ralph David Abernathy, president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), makes his way through the audience.","Next, Alberta Williams King, mother of the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., speaks to a group of people in front of her son's birthplace on 501 Auburn Avenue; due to several breaks in the clip, her comments are not completely recorded. This is presumably back at the unveiling of the memorial plaque in front of King's birth home; cameramen film the plaque, next, Alberta Williams King describes the Auburn Avenue neighborhood and community as \". . . unpretentious, honest, and plain. And so were the people who lived here, people from all walks of living lived here together, and there existed a wonderful friendship, fellowship, and closeness to one another.\" There is a shot of a group of African American police officers, then a shot of Martin Luther King, Sr. and Coretta Scott King standing amidst the crowd on Auburn Avenue. Alberta Williams King's voice is recorded over the shot. This is followed by an overexposed shot of a walkway in front of a building with columns and large windows; the last shot in the clip is of the front of Ebenezer Baptist Church. The church doors are open, several clusters of people are gathered in front of the church, and two motorcycles are parked in front of the building.","Following Dr. Martin Luther King's assassination on April 4, 1968, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference vowed to continue work on the Poor People's Campaign in his memory. Cooperating with other civil rights and relief organizations, SCLC members planned a six-week event in Washington, D.C. that lasted from May 2 to June 19 to emphasize the plight of the nation's poor and to persuade the passage of federal legislation that would improve the economic and social conditions of the impoverished. SCLC leaders organized several regional caravans to travel to Washington, D.C. A delegation of approximately five hundred people from Mississippi and Alabama arrived on buses in Atlanta on May 9 to rest before they resumed travel to Washington; food and lodging were provided by private Atlanta residents and members of local churches. While in Atlanta, Poor People's Campaign participants viewed King's birthplace and original burial site at South-View cemetery (his remains were moved to the King Center in 1970), and attended a preliminary rally at the Atlanta Civic Center. The crowd at the rally drew an audience of approximately thirteen thousand people, and included speakers Coretta Scott King, Ralph D. Abernathy, and Hosea Williams; musical performances were provided by Diana Ross and the Supremes, the Temptations, Stevie Wonder, and Gladys Knight and the Pips. Poor People's Campaign demonstrators traveled onward to Washington, where they lived in Resurrection City, a tent settlement on the Mall, and protested at numerous federal agencies on behalf of economic justice. A \"Solidarity Day\" march and held on June 19 (the date commemorating the 1865 emancipation of the last African American slaves held in bondage in the Confederate states, also known as \"Juneteenth\") signified the end of the campaign.","Title supplied by cataloger."],"dc_format":["video/mp4"],"dcterms_identifier":["Clip number: wsbn44591"],"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 Americans--Georgia--Atlanta","Poverty--Georgia--Atlanta","Civil rights demonstrations--Georgia--Atlanta","Discrimination--Georgia--Atlanta","Stadiums--Georgia--Atlanta","Gymnasiums--Georgia--Atlanta","We shall overcome","Caravans--Georgia--Atlanta","Travelers--Georgia--Atlanta","Spectators","Dinners and dining--Georgia--Atlanta","Church buildings--Georgia--Atlanta","Church doors--Georgia--Atlanta","Church doorways--Georgia--Atlanta","Church attendance--Georgia--Atlanta","Church membership--Georgia--Atlanta","African American churches--Georgia--Atlanta","Grief--Georgia--Atlanta","Bereavement--Georgia--Atlanta","Birthplaces--Georgia--Atlanta","Memorial rites and ceremonies--Georgia--Atlanta","Memorial service--Georgia--Atlanta","Sepulchral monuments--Georgia--Atlanta","Monuments--Georgia--Atlanta","Historic buildings--Georgia--Atlanta","Memorials--Georgia--Atlanta","Historical markers--Georgia--Atlanta","Band musicians--Georgia--Atlanta","Musical groups--Georgia--Atlanta","Microphone","Demonstrations--Georgia--Atlanta","Civil rights workers--Georgia--Atlanta","African American civil rights workers--Georgia--Atlanta","African American clergy--Georgia--Atlanta","African Americans--Civil rights","African Americans--Civil rights--Georgia","African Americans--Civil rights--Southern States","African Americans--Politics and government--20th century","Civil rights movements--United States--History--20th century","African Americans--Economic conditions--20th century","Economic assistance, Domestic--Citizen participation","Social service--Citizen participation","Social movements--United States","African American musicians--Georgia--Atlanta","African American civic leaders--Georgia--Atlanta","Musicians--Georgia--Atlanta","Soul musicians--Georgia--Atlanta","Rhythm and blues musicians--Georgia--Atlanta","Entertainers--Georgia--Atlanta","African American entertainers--Georgia--Atlanta","Banners--Georgia--Atlanta","Signs and signboards--Georgia--Atlanta","Epitaphs--Georgia--Atlanta","Elderly poor--Georgia--Atlanta","Older people--Georgia--Atlanta","Older African Americans--Georgia--Atlanta","African American neighborhoods--Georgia--Atlanta","Tour buses--Georgia--Atlanta","Tour bus parking--Georgia--Atlanta","School buses--Georgia--Atlanta","Reporters and reporting--Georgia--Atlanta","Camera operators--Georgia--Atlanta","Luggage--Georgia--Atlanta","Burial--Georgia--Atlanta","Crying--Georgia--Atlanta","Handkerchiefs--Georgia--Atlanta","Passersby","Audiences--Georgia--Atlanta","Poor African Americans--Social conditions--20th century","Poor--Social conditions--20th century","Poor--Services for--Georgia--Atlanta","Poor--United States","Poverty--United States","Food--Georgia--Atlanta","Motorcycles--Georgia--Atlanta","Atlanta (Ga.)--Race relations--History--20th century","Washington (D.C.)--Race relations--History--20th century","United States--Social conditions--20th century"],"dcterms_title":["Series of WSB-TV newsfilm clips of African Americans celebrating and demonstrating as they prepare for the Poor People's March on Washington, 1968"],"dcterms_type":["MovingImage"],"dcterms_provenance":["Walter J.

Ward, attorney William H. Alexander, and Reverend J. D. Grier answer questions about a petition that has recently been presented to the Atlanta Board of Education with regard to its delay in desegregating the city's","schools. Three members of the panel are unidentified.","The clip, which is about six minutes long, begins with a shot of Georgia state senator Leroy Johnson explaining that the group of African American community leaders and civil rights activists who have banded together to protest the inaction of the Atlanta Board of Education in desegregating Atlanta schools have made a commitment to wait for the Board of Education's decision that upcoming Monday. After that date, he is not certain what will happen if the Board of Education decides against granting the demands listed in the petition. Atlanta attorney William H. Alexander adds that there is a consensus that, after Monday's deadline arrives, they are willing to use all of the power at their disposal to \"resolve the issue,\" but will have to wait until Monday to respond to anything specific.","A member of the audience then asks Senator Johnson if he thinks a protest movement","might come (the question is truncated by a break in the clip); Johnson replies that any protest movement in Atlanta will be a nonviolent movement, confirms that those opposed to the Board of Education may be at a negotiating impasse and that people are ready to protest. He notes that fifty citizens asked Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. to come into Atlanta, and that on Monday, September 25, a group of fifteen hundred to two thousand people met at Reverend Howard Creecy's Mount Moriah Baptist Church in Atlanta to protest against the acts of the Board of Education. He reminds the audience that if protests ensue, it is because of the inaction of \"those who could have granted the relief, but did not.\"","Next, in response to a question that was not captured in the recording, Senator Johnson says that he has not reviewed an incomplete list of five answers given by the Atlanta Board of Education, that body's response to an eleven-demand petition submitted to them by a local alliance of civil rights groups. The list was delivered to Reverend Samuel Williams, chairman of Atlanta's Community Relations Commission (an organization established to communicate race discrimination grievances to City Hall) by the Board of Education. He then suggests that Mr. Williamson (presumably Q. V. Williamson, member of the Atlanta Board of Aldermen) may have more to say on the issue. Johnson reiterates that he is waiting until Monday, October 2 to acknowledge the Board's response, as that remains the deadline for the Board of Education to respond fully to the petition. When asked by a reporter if the panel would respond to a partial fulfillment of demands on the Board of Education's part, he replies that he would prefer to not answer any","hypothetical questions.","Next, William H. Alexander, responding to a question about jobs, reiterates that the panel members are willing to use all of the power at their disposal, but does not believe that he can define specific actions at this time. Next, Atlanta attorney Horace T. Ward explains to reporters that the petition has grown out of \"an accumulation of frustration and efforts\" to improve educational opportunities for African American children. As Ward begins to speak, Johnson lights up a cigarette and begins to smoke. The camera closes in for a tighter shot of Ward, who notes that this is not the first time such an effort has been made, nor has the petition been precipitated by any single event, rather, the endeavor to eliminate double sessions and to improve educational facilities in Atlanta schools is consistent with \"the original desegregation suits.\" He is presumably referring to the 1958 lawsuit Calhoun v. Latimer, where the NAACP Legal Defense Fund assisted in filing a federal lawsuit against the Atlanta Board of Education requesting the elimination of the city's segregated school system.","Next, Senator Johnson emphasizes that it was the spirit of the Board of Education and their subsequent actions that prompted the delivery of the petition and the request that the board act on the eleven demands. A member of the audience asks \"Did the William Fountain High School...Elementary School figure into this?\" Johnson acknowledges that the school was mentioned as a complaint in the statement (They are probably referring to William A. Fountain Elementary School in Forest Park, Georgia). After one more break in the clip, Reverend J. D. Grier adds that there are more African American students in schools that have fewer African American staff to support those students; he goes on to say that he does not see \"any reason why Washington High should be on triple session and Northside not on double sessions.\" Grier then recommends that the Board of Education look at the overall space available in all of the Atlanta schools.","In 1967, thirteen years after the Supreme Court ruled the unconstitutionality of school segregation in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas, Atlanta schools were still insufficiently desegregated. Attempts to integrate the Atlanta public schools began in 1958 with the Atlanta lawsuit Calhoun v. Latimer, however, sustained resistance from the Atlanta Board of Education and segregationist state and local government officials necessitated decades of constant legal pressure before meaningful integration of the school system was achieved.  The Atlanta schools operated under a \"freedom of choice\" plan throughout most of the 1960s, which in theory allowed African American parents to request transfers for their children to attend predominantly white schools. In practice, however, African American students were screened based upon unfair criteria, few transfers were granted, and African American students remained in inferior and overcrowded schools. On September 11, 1967, a coalition of Atlanta civil rights groups that included members of the Atlanta Summit Leadership Conference, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) presented a list of eleven grievances to the Atlanta Board of Education. Their list of demands included requests to eliminate overcrowded schools, double session schedules, and racial discrimination in student, faculty, curriculum, and administrative matters. The Board of Education, led by chairman Ed S. Cook, responded that five items on the list would be addressed as soon as paperwork could be completed; the remaining six items on the list would be discussed with civil rights activists in two weeks. The timeframe of the Board of Education's response caused a rift amidst members of the coalition of civil rights leaders; some members were satisfied by the two-week deadline for a response, some were not and demanded an immediate reply instead. Tensions were further exacerbated when the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce extended invitations to representatives of the Atlanta Summit Leadership Conference to negotiate with Board of Education officials, but excluded other civil rights organizations. Despite these disagreements, the pressure against the Board of Education continued. Pickets and sit-ins took place at Board of Education superintendent John W. Letson's office, evening rallies were held at local African American churches, further legal action was pursued by the NAACP, and the potential threat of mass demonstrations remained constant. The Board of Education ultimately responded to the eleven demands on Monday, September 25th; however, nearly all of their answers were rejected as insufficient by the coalition of civil rights groups.","Title supplied by cataloger.","Former title \"WSB-TV newsfilm clip of a panel of African American leaders explaining their demands to the Board of Education, Atlanta, Georgia, 1967 September 30.\" Further research of the events in the clip determine that the date","depicted is September 25, 1967."],"dc_format":["video/mp4"],"dcterms_identifier":["Clip number: wsbn52051"],"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":["Segregation in education--Georgia--Atlanta","African Americans--Georgia--Atlanta","African Americans--Education--Georgia--Atlanta","School management and organization--Georgia--Atlanta","School boards--Georgia--Atlanta","Petitions--Georgia--Atlanta","Trials--Georgia--Atlanta","Trials (Civil rights)--Georgia--Atlanta","Trials (Civil rights)--Southern States","African Americans--Social conditions--20th century","Government, Resistance to--Georgia--Atlanta--History--20th century","Federal-state controversies--Georgia","Civil rights workers--Georgia--Atlanta","African American politicians--Georgia--Atlanta","Politicians--Georgia--Atlanta","African American lawyers--Georgia--Atlanta","Lawyers--Georgia--Atlanta","Civic leaders--Georgia--Atlanta","African American civic leaders--Georgia--Atlanta","Clergy--Georgia--Atlanta","African American clergy--Georgia--Atlanta","African Americans--Civil rights","African Americans--Civil rights--Georgia--Atlanta","Education--Georgia--Atlanta","Coalitions--Georgia--Atlanta","Discrimination in education--Georgia--Atlanta","Discrimination in education--Southern States","Segregation in education--Georgia","Segregation in education--Southern States","School integration--United States","School integration--Southern States","School integration--Georgia--Atlanta","Race discrimination--Georgia--Atlanta--History--20th century","Race discrimination--Law and legislation--Georgia--Atlanta--History--20th century","Race discrimination--Law and legislation--Southern States--History--20th century","Race relations","Georgia--Race relations","Nonviolence","Demonstrations--Georgia--Atlanta","Press conferences--Georgia--Atlanta","Microphone","Politicians--Tobacco use","Smoking--Georgia--Atlanta","Georgia--Race relations--History--20th century"],"dcterms_title":["WSB-TV newsfilm clip of a panel of African American leaders including Georgia state senator Leroy Johnson, Reverend J.
