No summary paragraph submitted.
Georgia Tech Library launches companion websiteThe NAACP Papers collections, which consists of 6 modules, contains internal memos, legal briefings, and direct action summaries from national, legal, and branch offices throughout the country. It charts the NAACP's work and delivers a first-hand view into crucial issues. With a timeline that runs from 1909 to 1972, the NAACP Papers document the realities of segregation in the early 20th century to the triumphs of the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and beyond.
Many thanks to Doug Flamming, who initiated the request to purchase this important resource, and who coordinated with HSOC colleagues to write a compelling recommendation.
