The clip begins with the picketers exiting a car parked beside the sidewalk.  At least two men, an adult and a student, and three women exit the car and carry signs as they walk up and down the street in the Albany commercial district.  Slogans on the signs include, \"Oh, Pritchett, open them cells,\" \"Legal to picket in Albany? Police say no,\" \"Freedom of assembly?\" and \"Revive first amendment in Albany.\"  Later, Edward Dickerson, a white Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) member from Cambridge, Massachusetts, holds a sign with the saying, \"No civil liberties, no civil rights\" and an African American woman holds her sign, \"Freedom to assemble\" upside down.  Another African American woman holds a sign with the saying, \"1100 arrested in peaceful demonstrations;\" the number on top of the sign appears to have been changed.  Standing with his back to the camera, Albany mayor Asa D. Kelley speaks to an unidentified white man and watches the picketers.  Albany police chief Laurie Pritchett, after watching the picket line march in front of city hall, stops the protesters and speaks to them as they are surrounded by officers and members of the media.  After listening to Pritchett, the demonstrators resume their procession down Albany sidewalks.  In another clip, picketers are arrested by police after they ignore a warning from Pritchett to cease. Civil rights protesters in the Albany Movement who picketed were often arrested for charges including failure to obey an officer, disorderly conduct, blocking the sidewalk, and obstructing traffic.","The Civil Rights Digital Library received support from a National Leadership Grant for Libraries awarded to the University of Georgia by the Institute of Museum and Library Services for digital conversion and description of the WALB News Film collection.","Title provided by cataloger."],"dc_format":null,"dcterms_identifier":null,"dcterms_language":null,"dcterms_publisher":null,"dc_relation":["Forms part of: Civil Rights Digital Library."],"dc_right":["http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"dcterms_is_part_of":["Original found in the WALB newsfilm collection."],"dcterms_subject":["African American civil rights workers--Georgia--Albany","African American college students--Georgia--Albany","African American women--Georgia--Albany","African Americans--Civil rights--Georgia--Albany","African Americans--Politics and government","Arrest--Georgia--Albany","Civil rights demonstrations--Georgia--Albany","Civil rights workers--Georgia--Albany","Direct action--Georgia--Albany","Mayors--Georgia--Albany","Nonviolence--Georgia--Albany","Parades--Georgia--Albany","Picketing--Georgia--Albany","Police--Georgia--Albany","Segregation--Georgia--Albany","Imprisonment--Georgia--Albany","Reporters and reporting--Georgia--Albany","Assembly, Right of--Georgia--Albany","Central business districts--Georgia--Albany","Signs and signboards--Georgia--Albany","Albany (Ga.)--Politics and government--History--20th century","Albany (Ga.)--Race relations--History--20th century","Albany Movement (Albany, Ga.)","Albany City Hall (Albany, Ga.)","Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (U.S.)","United States.

An African American woman in sunglasses speaks to a white woman and a white man standing behind a desk in the library, while in the background, a white woman walking by sees the black woman at the desk and walks in the opposite direction.  Next, two African American women are seen near a collection of library books; one sits at a table with books in front of her while the other looks at the books on a shelf behind the table; she joins the other woman at the table.  An elderly white woman sitting at an adjacent table gathers her things after the second black woman sits down.  Next, a cameraman films three African American students leaving the building; he remains inside after they leave.  Later, four black students, three female and one male, walk up the steps to the library.  One of the female students is wearing a black armband (members of the Albany Movement wore black armbands to protest the July 10 convictions of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Reverend Ralph Abernathy for their participation in a December, 1961 march).  The students speak to someone through a partially-opened door, then turn around and leave the building.  Finally, in another shot inside the library, an officer sitting at a desk appears to transcribe information from an open book; another officer reads in a chair nearby.  During the summer of 1962, African American students active in the Albany Movement tested many public facilities for integration, including the library. Rather than integrate the facilities, the Albany City Commission closed the library in 1962. In 1963, at the request of local citizens, the library reopened, but with all patron seating removed.","The Civil Rights Digital Library received support from a National Leadership Grant for Libraries awarded to the University of Georgia by the Institute of Museum and Library Services for digital conversion and description of the WALB News Film collection.","Title provided by cataloger."],"dc_format":null,"dcterms_identifier":null,"dcterms_language":null,"dcterms_publisher":null,"dc_relation":["Forms part of: Civil Rights Digital Library."],"dc_right":["http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"dcterms_is_part_of":["Original found in the WALB newsfilm collection."],"dcterms_subject":["African American civil rights workers--Georgia--Albany","African American students--Georgia--Albany","African Americans--Civil rights--Georgia--Albany","Civil rights demonstrations--Georgia--Albany","Direct action--Georgia--Albany","Police--Georgia--Albany","Reporters and reporting--Georgia--Albany","Segregation--Georgia--Albany","Library users--Georgia--Albany","Discrimination in public accommodations--Georgia--Albany","Public libraries--Political aspects--Georgia--Albany","Camera operators--Georgia--Albany","Albany Carnegie Library (Albany, Ga.)","Albany Movement (Albany, Ga.)"],"dcterms_title":["WALB newsfilm clip of African American students turned away from using the public library in Albany, Georgia, 1962"],"dcterms_type":["MovingImage"],"dcterms_provenance":["Walter J.

Abernathy leads a kneel-in at city hall in Albany, Georgia, during which he prays for the community, its leaders, and the leaders of the civil rights movement before police arrest him and his fellow demonstrators. The clip begins with a silent portion in which groups of African Americans get out of cars near city hall and walk towards the building. Rev. Abernathy exits one of the cars in a group with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Dr. William G. Anderson, Slater King, and Reverend E. James Grant; president, vice president, and member of the Albany Movement respectively. The demonstrators line up in front of city hall and are met by local police, led by Albany police chief Laurie Pritchett. Pritchett gives directions to his officers and to those in the kneel-in as cameramen and reporters surround the group. The sound portion begins with Pritchett informing the demonstrators that they are under arrest. King appears to ignore the statement and asks Abernathy to pray. Abernathy prays for the city of Albany; the city officials, including the mayor and chief of police; and the members of the police force. Pritchett then interrupts the prayer, directing his officers to round up the demonstrators. Abernathy continues to pray for peace in the community, and for a willingness in the city officials to negotiate with the leaders of the African American community. He prays that those attending the kneel-in will not feel hate or animosity, and for their leaders by name, including Anderson, King, and Reverend Benjamin Gay, chaplain of the Albany Movement, who is not seen. The end of Abernathy's prayer is not recorded. The clip continues with Pritchett again informing the group that they will be arrested if they do not leave. The demonstrators begin to move towards city hall and King stops to give a reporter a prepared statement he did not get to read. The clip ends with cameramen and reporters watching the demonstrators enter city hall. Abernathy, King, Anderson, and others came to city hall with the goal of speaking to the city commission; when they were informed that the city commission would not meet with them before the next meeting  scheduled for August 7, they began to pray. A second kneel-in, led by Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) leader Charles Jones, took place at city hall later in the day;  the participants in that event were also arrested.","The Civil Rights Digital Library received support from a National Leadership Grant for Libraries awarded to the University of Georgia by the Institute of Museum and Library Services for digital conversion and description of the WALB News Film collection.","Title provided by cataloger."],"dc_format":null,"dcterms_identifier":["walb00019"],"dcterms_language":["eng"],"dcterms_publisher":null,"dc_relation":["Forms part of: Civil Rights Digital Library."],"dc_right":["http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"dcterms_is_part_of":["Original found in the WALB newsfilm collection."],"dcterms_subject":["African American civil rights workers--Georgia--Albany","African Americans--Civil rights--Georgia--Albany","African Americans--Politics and government","Arrest--Georgia--Albany","Civil rights demonstrations--Georgia--Albany","Civil rights workers--Georgia--Albany","Direct action--Georgia--Albany","Imprisonment--Georgia--Albany","Kneel-ins--Georgia--Albany","Negotiation--Georgia--Albany","Passive resistance--Georgia--Albany","Police--Georgia--Albany","Prayer--Georgia--Albany","Public worship--Georgia--Albany","Reporters and reporting--Georgia--Albany","Civil rights movements--Georgia--Albany","Camera operators--Georgia--Albany","Albany (Ga.).

The clip ends with policemen standing in the street near a movie theater in Albany. On July 21, Albany city officials had obtained a federal injunction against local and national leaders restraining them from leading marches and other demonstrations. At a scheduled mass meeting held that evening at Shiloh Baptist Church, Reverend Wells, who was not named in the injunction, volunteered to lead a march. Over one hundred people followed him downtown and were arrested; another fifty marched later that night and joined those already in jail. The night march on July 21 was one of the last night marches held in Albany.

Next, after a break in the clip, ruins of Mount Mary Baptist Church are also seen, including metal roofing material, two sets of steps, and brick supports. Nearby, African American women and children watch the smoldering piles and comfort one another. Former baseball player Jackie Robinson, who was in Albany when the churches burned, later inspected the sites and served as honorary head of the fundraising effort to rebuild the churches, donating one hundred dollars to the cause. Finally, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. walks beside the ruins of Shady Grove Baptist Church near Leesburg, in Lee County, on August 15, 1962. Reverends Ralph D. Abernathy and Wyatt T. Walker of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) stand beside other men who observe the ruins. A white man with a notepad appears to be speaking to a gathered crowd. Three of the four cinderblock walls of the church remain, although the east wall and the roof have collapsed. Community members viewed the August 14, 1962 Shady Grove church fire with suspicion, since the church had recently hosted African American voter registration efforts; particularly when the officials who inspected the sites stated that the fires were caused by either lightning or faulty wiring. In response to the suspected arsons at these voter registration meeting sites, the United States Justice Department considered filing a federal suit alleging voter intimidation.","The Civil Rights Digital Library received support from a National Leadership Grant for Libraries awarded to the University of Georgia by the Institute of Museum and Library Services for digital conversion and description of the WALB News Film collection.","Title provided by cataloger."],"dc_format":null,"dcterms_identifier":null,"dcterms_language":null,"dcterms_publisher":null,"dc_relation":["Forms part of: Civil Rights Digital Library."],"dc_right":["http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"dcterms_is_part_of":["Original found in the WALB newsfilm collection."],"dcterms_subject":["African American children--Georgia--Sasser","African American women--Georgia--Sasser","African Americans--Politics and government","African American churches--Georgia--Sasser","African American churches--Georgia--Leesburg (Lee County)","Fires--Georgia","Church buildings--Fire and fire prevention--Georgia","Fund raising--Georgia","Race relations","Offenses against property--Georgia--Sasser","Offenses against property--Georgia--Leesburg (Lee County)","Ruined buildings--Georgia--Sasser","Ruined buildings--Georgia--Leesburg (Lee County)","Intimidation--Georgia--Sasser","Intimidation--Georgia--Leesburg (Lee County)","Voter registration--Georgia--Sasser","Voter registration--Georgia--Leesburg (Lee County)","Arson--Georgia--Sasser","Arson--Georgia--Leesburg (Lee County)","Violence--Georgia--Sasser","Violence--Georgia--Leesburg (Lee County)","Shady Grove Baptist Church (Leesburg, Lee County, Ga.)","Southern Christian Leadership Conference","Mount Olive Baptist Church (Sasser, Ga.)","Mount Mary Baptist Church (Sasser, Ga.)","United States.

Chief Pritchett recounts that demonstrators announced that they came to city hall to speak with city commissioners; since the commission was not scheduled to meet again until August 7, Pritchett agreed to speak to the group on the commission's behalf.  Pritchett reports that the kneel-in participants refused his offer for discussion; they also declined to leave the sidewalk and began to pray, creating a \"general disturbance\" in the Albany uptown area.  Police arrested the demonstrators after asking them to either come inside or leave the property four times.  Pritchett asserts that he knew the time the group was scheduled to arrive, and views the demonstration as a \"prearranged affair.\"  Near the end of the clip, Albany mayor Asa D. Kelley is seen among the reporters.  The kneel-in was led by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Reverend Ralph D. Abernathy of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) as well as Dr. William G. Anderson and Slater King, president and vice president of the Albany Movement.  Rev. Abernathy prayed for the city and its leaders, as well as the civil rights movement and its leaders before the police arrested the group.  A second kneel-in at city hall, led by Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) member Charles Jones, took place later that day and led to more arrests.","The Civil Rights Digital Library received support from a National Leadership Grant for Libraries awarded to the University of Georgia by the Institute of Museum and Library Services for digital conversion and description of the WALB News Film collection.","Title provided by cataloger."],"dc_format":null,"dcterms_identifier":null,"dcterms_language":null,"dcterms_publisher":null,"dc_relation":["Forms part of: Civil Rights Digital Library."],"dc_right":["http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"dcterms_is_part_of":["Original found in the WALB newsfilm collection.","Civil Rights Digital Library Collection (Digital Library of Georgia)"],"dcterms_subject":["African American civil rights workers--Georgia--Albany","African American physicians--Georgia--Albany","African Americans--Civil rights--Georgia--Albany","African Americans--Politics and government","Arrest--Georgia--Albany","Civil rights demonstrations--Georgia--Albany","Civil rights workers--Georgia--Albany","Direct action--Georgia--Albany","Interviews--Georgia--Albany","Kneel-ins--Georgia--Albany","Police--Georgia--Albany","Prayer--Georgia--Albany","Press conferences--Georgia--Albany","Public worship--Georgia--Albany","Religion and politics--Georgia--Albany","Reporters and reporting--Georgia--Albany","Segregation--Georgia--Albany","Mayors--Georgia--Albany","Albany (Ga.)--Politics and government--History--20th century","Albany (Ga.)--Race relations--History--20th century","Albany Movement (Albany, Ga.)","Southern Christian Leadership Conference","Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (U.S.)","Albany (Ga.).

The clip begins with Mrs. J. D. Miles, who expresses her disbelief at the bill and declares to stand up for her rights; she feels that African Americans already possess the same freedoms to work and build their neighborhoods as white people.  Next, Knight stops two women and a girl; one of the women expresses her concerns about possible violence and her preference that demonstrations remain peaceful.  Another unidentified woman interviewed by Knight hopes there will not be any \"trouble,\" and adds, \"of course, being a Southerner, I'm not for it at all.\"  A woman who does not have time to be interviewed interjects that she thinks African Americans already have equal rights.  A man and a woman walking together decline to comment when they are stopped, as does an older gentleman, who says \"What I have to say wouldn't be fit to go on the air.\"  Another man and woman enter the store with a boy and a girl; they feel the bill should be voted upon as part of a national election, rather than forcing an \"unwanted\" decision upon the nation to accept.   Finally, the last woman interviewed attests that she, too, is against the proposed legislation, and admits her concern about living in a neighborhood with African Americans.","The Civil Rights Digital Library received support from a National Leadership Grant for Libraries awarded to the University of Georgia by the Institute of Museum and Library Services for digital conversion and description of the WALB News Film collection.","Title provided by cataloger."],"dc_format":null,"dcterms_identifier":null,"dcterms_language":["eng"],"dcterms_publisher":null,"dc_relation":["Forms part of: Civil Rights Digital Library."],"dc_right":["http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"dcterms_is_part_of":["WALB News Film collection"],"dcterms_subject":["African Americans--Civil rights--Georgia--Albany","Civil rights movements--Georgia--Albany","Civil rights--Georgia--Albany","Interviews--Georgia--Albany","Reporters and reporting--Georgia--Albany","Segregation--Georgia--Albany","WALB (Television station : Albany, Ga.)"],"dcterms_title":["WALB newsfilm clip of reporter Jim Knight interviewing white citizens about their opinion of a proposed civil rights bill in Albany, Georgia, 1964"],"dcterms_type":["MovingImage"],"dcterms_provenance":["Walter J.

Anderson, president of the Albany Movement, responds on local television to criticism about the movement, the presence of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and other clergy and civil rights workers, and the rights of African Americans. After a July 18 presentation on WALB by James H. Gray, owner of WALB television station and local newspaper The Albany Herald, Anderson was given thirty minutes to respond to local criticism directed towards the Albany Movement and ongoing civil rights demonstrations.   Anderson refutes the accusation that the Albany Movement was started by \"outsiders,\" contending that it began among Albany residents \"as a deeply-felt expression of the hunger for true freedom.\"  The Albany Movement, a consolidation of extant Albany social improvement alliances, included previous incarnations of African American neighborhood organizations and clubs. One club, the Criterion Club, met with Albany mayor Asa Kelly in 1960, which proved unproductive. After November 1, 1961 when civil rights demonstrations intensified, the individual Albany clubs and organizations organized their efforts into the Albany Movement.  Anderson continues to explain to the audience that the Albany Movement invited Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) ministers and others to Albany because \"freedom is everybody's business.\"  He clarifies that nonresident civil rights activists have come to Albany at their own expense, and have not benefited financially from their stay; emphasizing that they chose such conditions because human dignity is worth more than money.  In response to an accusation that the movement lacks concern for Albany's reputation, Anderson reminds viewers that African American residents of Albany do indeed care about the city's reputation, but see no other way to secure justice.  He appeals to the goodwill of local citizens by asking them to remember \"there are some aspirations in men's hearts which cannot be put off indefinitely\" and counts freedom among them.  He emphasizes that while the Albany Movement wishes to negotiate with the city, they do not view the police chief Laurie Pritchett, a law enforcement officer, as the proper spokesman in that process.  Anderson then asserts that \"constitutional guarantees transcend any relationship between the tax burden borne and the full enjoyment of them\" and asks if the value and rights of a tax payer are determined by the amount he pays; in doing so, he challenges the injustice of levying taxes upon African Americans but providing fewer privileges and services than are granted to white taxpayers.","The Civil Rights Digital Library received support from a National Leadership Grant for Libraries awarded to the University of Georgia by the Institute of Museum and Library Services for digital conversion and description of the WALB News Film collection.","Title provided by cataloger."],"dc_format":null,"dcterms_identifier":null,"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 WALB newsfilm collection."],"dcterms_subject":["African American civil rights workers--Georgia--Albany","African American physicians--Georgia--Albany","African Americans--Civil rights--Georgia--Albany","African Americans--Politics and government","African Americans--Taxation--Georgia--Albany","Civil rights demonstrations--Georgia--Albany","Civil rights movements--Georgia--Albany","Civil rights workers--Georgia--Albany","Interviews--Georgia--Albany","Newspaper editors--Georgia--Albany","Passive resistance--Georgia--Albany","Physicians--Georgia--Albany","Segregation--Georgia--Albany","Tax incidents--Georgia--Albany","Taxation--Georgia--Albany","Albany (Ga.)--Race relations--History--20th century","Albany Movement (Albany, Ga.)","Southern Christian Leadership Conference"],"dcterms_title":["WALB newsfilm clip of Dr. William G.

Kelley speaks at a press conference held in his office where he asserts that the city's intent in obtaining a temporary federal injunction prohibiting civil rights movement leaders from leading demonstrations is to provide law-abiding citizens with additional protection against racial conflicts. Kelley emphasizes that the federal marshals present in Albany are only there to serve the temporary injunction to those named in the suit; the marshals will not affect the city's ability to enforce its own laws or the laws of the state. He repeatedly stresses that the restraining order will provide equal protection to law-abiding citizens of all races. The city views the court order as \"another weapon to use against outside agitators\" and a way to fulfill their responsibility to protect citizens from mob violence and preserve peace; he cites a similar suit that took place in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in which the city obtained a permanent injunction against the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) to halt racial agitation. He says the African American leadership bears the burden of the injunction, and that they must decide if they will ignore a lawful order of the United States district court in the same way they have disdained Albany city ordinances. Kelley ends by reading from the injunction, which says that the local and national leaders of the Albany Movement \"threaten to continue and intensify their acts of mass picketing, demonstration, parades, boycotts, and riotous conduct which threatens the good order, public peace, and tranquility of the city of Albany and that said acts are in violation of Georgia laws.\" United States district court judge J. Robert Elliott signed the temporary injunction against the civil rights leaders in Albany on July 21, and scheduled a hearing for July 30 to consider making the order permanent. Chief federal appellate court judge Elbert P. Tuttle reversed the temporary restraining order against demonstrations on Tuesday, July 24, until the time that Judge Elliott could hold a hearing regarding the petition.","The Civil Rights Digital Library received support from a National Leadership Grant for Libraries awarded to the University of Georgia by the Institute of Museum and Library Services for digital conversion and description of the WALB News Film collection.","Title provided by cataloger."],"dc_format":null,"dcterms_identifier":null,"dcterms_language":null,"dcterms_publisher":null,"dc_relation":["Forms part of: Civil Rights Digital Library."],"dc_right":["http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"dcterms_is_part_of":["Original found in the WALB newsfilm collection."],"dcterms_subject":["African American civil rights workers--Georgia--Albany","Boycotts--Georgia--Albany","Civil rights demonstrations--Georgia--Albany","Civil rights workers--Georgia--Albany","Injunctions--Georgia--Albany","Interviews--Georgia--Albany","Mayors--Georgia--Albany","Parades--Georgia--Albany","Passive resistance--Georgia--Albany","Picketing--Georgia--Albany","Press conferences--Georgia--Albany","Restraining orders--Georgia--Albany","Segregation--Georgia--Albany","Courts--United States--Officials and employees","Equality before the law--United States","Injunctions--Louisiana--Baton Rouge","Mobs--Georgia--Albany","Albany (Ga.)--Politics and government--History--20th century","Albany (Ga.)--Race relations--History--20th century","Baton Rouge (La.)--Race relations","Albany (Ga.).
