SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE
The branch newsletters and printed material in this part of Papers of the
NAACP provide an excellent nationwide overview of state and local NAACP
activity during the high point of the post–World War II struggle for civil rights.
This series of branch department files is composed of five subseries: branch
directories; handbooks and manuals; branch, state conference, and regional
newsletters; convention programs; and branch, state conference, and regional
reports.
The first subseries is branch directories. The branch directories, which are
arranged in chronological order and span from 1957 to 1964, are a useful
source because they present important data about the structure, organization,
and leadership of the NAACP. They typically include a listing of the branch,
state conference, and regional officers, as well as the location of the offices
and the home addresses of the officers.
The second subseries in this edition consists of handbooks and manuals
from the Southeast and West Coast regional offices. These handbooks
provide insight into some of the procedures that governed NAACP branches
between 1956 and 1965. For example, the handbook for Southeast region
branches details the duties of branch officers, procedures for branch meetings
and public meetings, and instructions for the various branch committees. The
1965 Southeast region handbook also includes guidelines for women NAACP
members.
The largest subseries comprises newsletters from NAACP branches, state
conferences, and regional offices. Newsletters from over one hundred
branches and state conferences are included in this edition. These
newsletters allow for a detailed, inside view of the main issues, concerns, and
campaigns of NAACP branches during the period 1956 to 1965. The
newsletters also reveal the interaction between local struggles and the
national movement for civil rights.
In the decade following the NAACP’s victory in Brown v. Board of
Education, the association mobilized its network of local branches to press for
desegregation of public schools across the country. For example, the Florida
State Conference newsletters include a statement of policy from the 1958
Florida State convention that criticizes attempts to circumvent the Supreme
Court’s Brown decision and calls on the people of Florida to accept the
decision. Although Brown dealt specifically with de jure segregation, this
vii
edition illustrates that the NAACP did not restrict its education-related
initiatives and legal fights to southern states. A March 1962 article in the
Central Long Island, New York, newsletter reports that the NAACP had
recently “declared an all-out war” against segregated schools in northern
states and it states that the branch would soon take up its own legal battle
against local schools. The Chicago, Illinois, newsletters chronicle the
branch’s campaign against overcrowded schools. The complete files of the
NAACP’s efforts against discrimination in education can be found in UPA’s
Papers of the NAACP, Part 3: The Campaign for Educational Equality, 1913–
1965.
Local NAACP activism in the area of employment and employment
discrimination is also well documented in the branch newsletters. For
example, the River Rouge–Ecorse, Michigan, summer 1960 newsletter
contains a column that discusses the disproportionately harmful impact on
African American workers of automation and deindustrialization. A June 1965
Jamaica, New York, article comments on a pending bill in the New York State
legislature that would have given the International Longshoremen’s
Association and the New York Shipping Association control over hiring
decisions. The article acknowledges the problems facing longshoremen
because of the “pangs of automation,” but it opposes the bill on the grounds
that a “union hiring hall” and equal opportunity are “incompatible” in this case.
The NAACP’s complex relationship with organized labor is also evident in
other branch newsletters. An article in the December 1958 New York City
newspaper entitled “Unions Reflect Meager Process” criticizes New York area
unions for discrimination against African Americans and Puerto Ricans,
particularly their exclusion from union leadership positions. Another article in
the same issue discusses the positive accomplishments of the Congress of
Industrial Organizations (CIO) in organizing African American workers and
praises the CIO for its support of the NAACP and other civil rights
organizations. The article concludes by stressing the importance of continued
cooperation between the NAACP and the labor movement. Additional material
on the NAACP’s relationship with organized labor may be found in UPA’s
Papers of the NAACP, Part 13: NAACP and Labor, 1940–1955, and
Supplement to Part 13: NAACP and Labor, 1956–1965.
NAACP political involvement during this period involved three main areas:
voter registration and participation, political campaigns by members, and
lobbying for civil rights legislation. Although the NAACP remained a
nonpartisan organization, this did not prevent its members and local branches
from becoming involved in politics. An editorial in the October 1956 Chicago
branch newsletter neatly summarized this stance. Robert L. Birchman wrote:
“The NAACP is politically nonpartisan. It does not endorse any party or any
candidate for election to public office. But the NAACP is not non-political....
The effectiveness of our campaign for civil rights depends to a large degree
viii
on the strength of civil rights advocates at the polls. Our legislative goals can
be obtained by active participation of all citizens in the political life of the
country.” Local and statewide NAACP efforts for fair employment, fair housing,
and civil rights legislation culminated in the passage of a national civil rights
act in 1964, a voting rights act in 1965, and a fair housing act in 1968.
The newsletters are followed by a brief subseries of programs from NAACP
regional conventions. This edition includes programs from the New England
region, Southeast region, and West Coast region. The convention programs
give an indication of some of the major issues discussed at regional
conferences. For example, the 1957 New England region convention included
sessions on desegregation, housing, and education. The West Coast region
convention programs are from the 1959 and 1961 biennial conferences in
Asilomar, California. Youth members were particularly important to the
NAACP in the period between 1956 and 1965 and the Southeast region files
include a program from the 1960 youth convention. Other documentation on
NAACP youth members can be found in the newsletters of this edition. The
files of the NAACP youth department can be found in UPA’s Papers of the
NAACP, Part 19: Youth File.
The fifth and final subseries in this edition of Branch Department Files
consists of annual reports from branches, state conferences, and regional
offices. These annual reports generally include detailed summaries of the
major accomplishments and campaigns for a particular area. For example, the
1956 Los Angeles branch annual report states that the branch received thirtysix complaints of police brutality and describes the essential aspects of three
of these cases. The 1960 Mississippi State conference report by Mississippi
field secretary Medgar Evers discusses a “racial self defense” program that
involved a boycott of all stores discriminating against African Americans.
Southeast Regional Office reports during this period were written by one of the
NAACP’s most dynamic women leaders, Ruby Hurley. Additional annual
reports from state field secretaries and regional leaders like Hurley can also
be found in Series A, Series B, and Series D of Part 25 of Papers of the
NAACP.
Papers of the NAACP, Part 25: Branch Department Files, is complemented
by the Selected Branch Files in Parts 12, 26, and 27 of Papers of the NAACP.
Taken together, these four parts provide a substantial amount of
documentation on the functioning of local NAACP branches and state
conferences. Researchers should also be aware that the branch files can be
used most effectively in conjunction with other parts of Papers of the NAACP.
Especially relevant in this regard is Part 23: Legal Department Case Files,
1956–1965. The Legal Department Case Files document many of the local
cases in great detail. Other parts of UPA’s Papers of the NAACP that provide
additional information on the period from 1956 to 1965 are the following:
