SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE
Civil Rights During the Carter Administration, 1977–1981, Part 1: Papers of the
Special Assistant for Black Affairs, Section C brings together a large set of documents on
significant civil rights issues, events, and personalities during the 1977–1981 presidency
of Jimmy Carter.
The documents are those collected by the office of Louis E. Martin, special assistant
to the president, who oversaw the Carter administration’s handling of civil rights issues
and minority affairs and kept a close eye on the views of black Americans on Carter’s
policies. The collection documents focus predominantly on economic and social issues—
especially those involving discrimination—that affected black Americans and other
minorities.
The documents in the collection consist of internal White House memoranda,
correspondence from and reports by individuals and private organizations, newspaper
articles and editorials, press conference transcripts, press releases, correspondence
between White House and federal agency officials, government reports, lists of contacts,
and invitation lists for major events.
The collection includes material about, or written or spoken by, prominent
personalities including President Jimmy Carter; former President Richard M. Nixon; Vice
President Walter F. Mondale; Special Assistant to the President Louis E. Martin and his
key aides Julia M. Dobbs, I. Ray Miller Jr., and Karen W. Zuniga; administration
officials Elizabeth Abramowitz, Mary F. Berry, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Joseph A. Califano
Jr., Benjamin R. Civiletti, Stuart E. Eizenstat, Ernest G. Green, Sidney Harman, Patricia
R. Harris, Luther H. Hodges Jr., Juanita M. Kreps, James T. McIntyre Jr., Martha M.
Mitchell, Achsah Nesmith, Jody Powell, Charles Schultze, Jack Watson, A. Vernon
Weaver, Sarah Weddington, Anne Wexler, and Andrew Young; congressional
representatives Shirley Chisholm, Cardiss Collins, Walter E. Fauntroy, Augustus F.
Hawkins, and Parren J. Mitchell; nongovernment leaders Ralph Abernathy, Berkeley G.
Burrell, Maurice A. Dawkins, Ofield Dukes, Cornbread Givens, Aaron E. Henry, M. Carl
Holman, Benjamin Hooks, Jesse L. Jackson, Vernon E. Jordan Jr., Coretta Scott King,
Augustine R. Marusi, Clarence Mitchell, Bayard Rustin, and Leon H. Sullivan; and black
figures Muhammad Ali, Frederick Douglass, and W. E. B. DuBois.
A useful feature of the collection is its inclusion of documents about, or written by,
some important black leaders and officials of the 1970s and 1980s for which little
information is currently available through Internet searches. These leaders include
Randolph T. Blackwell, the director of the Office of Minority Business Enterprise
(OMBE); Cornbread Givens, the head of the Poor People’s Development Foundation;
and Louis E. Martin’s influential deputies Karen W. Zuniga and Julia M. Dobbs.
Researchers interested in the multiplicity of viewpoints held by minorities, as well as
the organizations they formed to advance them, will welcome the collection’s
compilation of documents from a large number of minority associations and institutions,
particularly black organizations, on discrimination, economic development, equal
opportunity, and related issues. Officials from these groups often present forceful
v
program proposals to President Carter or Louis Martin, and express their approval or
disapproval of administration policies.
These organizations include Afro-American Patrolmen’s League, African Methodist
Episcopal Zion Church, American Association for Affirmative Action, American
Association of Blacks in Energy, American Association of MESBICs, American Jewish
Congress, American Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, Associated Minority Contractors
of America, Black Alliance To Re-Elect Carter, black colleges, Black Leadership Forum,
Booker T. Washington Foundation, Businessmen’s Committee for the Federalization of
Welfare, Center for Community Change, Committee for Concerned Blacks, Concerned
Clergy for Carter, Congress of National Black Churches, Congressional Black Caucus,

The following sections outline the major topics covered by this collection.
Social Issues
The Carter years saw black Americans and members of other minorities make
significant progress toward equal treatment and opportunity in various social realms,
even as they continued to confront entrenched discrimination in certain areas. In
education, President Carter ordered the implementation of a Black College Initiative,
which was designed to increase dramatically the involvement of federal agencies with
historically black colleges and universities. This program expanded federal support of the
colleges through means such as grants for the construction of research libraries or
medical schools, as well as the provision of federal agency research and development
contracts. Louis Martin and his deputy Karen W. Zuniga found it a challenging endeavor
to persuade federal agencies such as the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare
(HEW) and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to devote
sufficient resources to meet the initiative goals that the president had set for them.
Other administration education initiatives covered in the collection include science
apprenticeships for minority students, technical assistance to black colleges, and minority
fellowships in graduate management education.
vi
Black Americans by no means relied on the federal government to take full
responsibility for improving the quality of education. In Oakland, California, for
example, Public Schools Superintendent Ruth B. Love initiated a program to bring
famous persons to the Oakland school system as artists, writers, or scholars in residence
(Reel 13, Frame 0270). These celebrities included James Baldwin, Eugene A. Cernan,
Alex Haley, Daniel “Chappie” James, Coretta Scott King, Annie Dodge Wauneka, and
Andrew Young. Elsewhere, black organizations such as the National Urban League and
Opportunities Industrialization Centers operated education and training centers in urban
areas.
In other social arenas, collection authors review whistleblowing on problems in
Department of Housing and Urban Development housing programs, as well as public
housing and rent assistance. Community development and neighborhood revitalization
receive attention in a number of reports, with authors discussing federal urban programs,
the suburban movement of black Americans, the displacement of poor and minority inner
city residents by higher income newcomers, the National Urban League’s Urban
Neighborhood Volunteer Program, and the efforts of neighborhood associations to help
residents “take back” their communities.
To help provide productive activity for unemployed youth, among other reasons,
Louis Martin favored the establishment of a universal peacetime national service
program. As one proponent argued, “Rather than being victims of universal service,
America’s youth might benefit most of all. They have grown up in the disillusioning
times of Vietnam and Watergate. Little is asked of them now, except that they be
consumers of goods and services. The inevitable results: political cynicism, feelings of
powerlessness, and the corrosive ‘I’ll get mine’ materialism so rampant on college
campuses today” (Reel 10, Frame 0165).
Blacks and other minorities expressed concern over the proposed increases in
immigration quotas to allow more refugees to enter the United States. In one letter to
Carter, Office of Management and Budget Director James T. McIntyre Jr. offers his
views on the political implications of alternative raised immigration quotas for refugees.
McIntyre believed that an increase in the number of Southeast Asian refugees would
“raise serious domestic problems among the black and Hispanic communities and among
selected state and local governments. Resentment will surely result from an
Administration proposal to increase the number of additional refugees brought to the
U.S., [with] the attendant higher budget costs, given the 1980 budget’s proposed
reductions in several social service programs affecting disadvantaged Americans” (Reel
7, Frame 1003).
Several authors examine alternative proposals to establish a system of universal
national health insurance. Authors express concern that under certain proposals, many
poor and minority citizens might be excluded from coverage.
Environmental protection and pollution receives some coverage in the collection. On
the subject of federally established wilderness areas, the American Association of Blacks
in Energy has this to say: “What is unique about Interior’s parks and Agriculture’s
recreational areas is that, unlike “wilderness,” one can have access to them by
conventional transportation modes. Unlike wilderness, there is no need to incur the
expense of owning horses, canoes, and elaborate backpacking gear with accoutrements
starting at $200 per person and up. . . . Wilderness, with its very tight, limiting
vii
restrictions and difficult access, will ipso facto exclude an overwhelming majority of
black and other minorities . . . yet minorities will be taxed like all other citizens for the
maintenance of [wilderness]” (Reel 9, Frame 0042).
Economic Problems
The Carter administration made a serious commitment to help back Americans and
other minorities move toward economic parity with whites. In particular, the
administration devoted considerable energy and resources to initiatives designed to
encourage the formation of minority-owned businesses and put them on an equal footing
with corporations owned or managed by the dominant culture. These programs were
administered by the Small Business Administration, the Economic Development
Administration, the Office of Minority Business Enterprise, the Community Services
Administration (CSA), the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, the Office
of Federal Procurement Policy, and other agencies. These programs focused primarily on
increasing the government’s procurement of goods and services from minority business,
as well as through requirements for procurement by federal contractors from minority
firms. The aided industries ranged from construction to manufacturing to advertising,
banking, and insurance. The government also maintained a program to help minorityowned exporters gain footholds in foreign markets.
Private industry had its own programs to foster the growth of minority business.
Augustine R. Marusi, chief executive officer of Borden, Inc., and Brooks McCormick,
chairman of International Harvester, led the drive by the National Minority Purchasing
Council, a group of private corporations, to increase corporate purchases from minority
firms (the council is today called National Minority Supplier Development Council).
Prominent corporate executives also led efforts to enlist support for the Joint Center for
Political Studies, an influential black think tank that conducted research on policy issues.
In an interesting private initiative to stimulate minority business growth, black public
relations executive Ofield Dukes attempted successfully to induce the Carter
administration to build the credibility of the national Minority Bank Deposit Program by
supporting a D.C. Minority Bank Deposit Program, in part as a demonstration project to
show the benefits of the program to minority banks. Dukes additionally advised the black
members of the National Bankers Association on how best to make use of their fifteen
minutes of time in a meeting with President Carter (Reel 5, Frame 303).
In a large number of collection documents, black leaders and organizations expressed
serious concern, sometimes even outrage, over what they perceived as the Carter
administration’s strategy to attack inflation by cutting federal spending. These individuals
and groups feared that the budget cuts would deplete social programs benefiting
minorities and the poor, even as Louis Martin, President Carter, Vice President Walter F.
Mondale, and others tried to reassure them that funding for the neediest citizens would
not be reduced.
A number of authors examine the entrenched problem of employment discrimination
against black Americans and other minorities in industries including construction, law
enforcement, railroads, and television and motion pictures. Authors critically evaluate
efforts by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and other agencies to
promulgate and enforce anti-discrimination regulations. OMBE Director Randolph T.
Blackwell charged that “institutional racism” plagued Labor Department aid to
viii
manpower training programs such Project Hire, established to provide funds to employers
to hire and train unemployed veterans. As Blackwell noted, “This HIRE program was
restricted to firms that could hire at least 500 or more workers. Practically all minority
firms were, therefore, excluded from this program because few, if any, minority firms are
large enough to hire 500 new employees” (Reel 13, Frame 0133).
Black leaders and organizations, as well as Louis Martin and President Carter, saw
the high rate of unemployment among youth, especially black youth, as the country’s
most urgent social problem. The administration established or expanded a number of
programs to provide both jobs and job training for the unemployed, such as the Summer
Youth Employment Program, a minority students’ research apprenticeship program, and
Jobs for Youth. The last program was a joint public-private partnership between federal
agencies and Opportunities Industrialization Centers (OIC), a private organization headed
by Leon H. Sullivan. Sullivan’s group had an ambitious goal: to train and then place
100,000 youths in permanent private and public sector jobs.
Rev. Sullivan fought against cuts in federal youth employment and training programs,
including those conducted in partnership with OIC. Sullivan pleaded, “I am calling on
members of the President’s National Employment and Training Commission, the
domestic policy staff, the President himself, and the leaders of the Senate and House to
make our youth a number one priority and develop a comprehensive national youth
policy. I want them to make the same effort to find the money and cut the red tape on this
crisis as they did to get Egypt and Israel to agree on a peace treaty to solve the Middle
East crisis” (Reel 12, Frame 0877).
Political Issues
Many black Americans believed that the black vote had provided the margin of
victory for Jimmy Carter in the 1976 presidential election. By 1979, however, a large
portion of the black electorate seems to have become disenchanted with the
administration’s performance, especially as it affected minority groups and the poor. The
dissatisfaction became especially vocal after the administration announced the FY1980
budget: black leaders denounced what they saw as deep cuts in pro-minority programs
like employment and training programs as well as aid to minority business. Obviously
worried that the Carter-Mondale ticket would lose a key source of support, Louis Martin
and other White House officials arranged White House briefings with key minority
constituent groups, such as black clergy from selected “swing” states like Ohio, New
Jersey, and Pennsylvania. During these briefings, officials tried to persuade the attendees
that the Carter administration indeed still cared about the poor, and that its record was far
more pro-poor than many anti-Carter groups and leaders cared to admit. A typical
briefing started with Martin remarks to the invited group, proceeded to substantive
discussions with appropriate Cabinet secretaries or assistant secretaries, and sometimes
ended with a ten- or fifteen-minute “drop-by” with President Carter. The collection
includes a significant body of information on these briefings.
After Carter lost the 1980 presidential election to Ronald Reagan, Louis Martin
submitted to the president an extensive list of names of black leaders that Carter could
meet with to discuss, among other things, “the efforts of GOP reactionaries on the Hill to
scuttle civil rights laws and the need for your active support in fighting them.” Carter’s
handwritten response on the letter: “I prefer a private meeting—no press—consisting of
ix
the underlined names.” Carter had underlined ten of the twenty suggested names (Reel
17, Frame 0871).
The collection also includes some interesting documents not specifically about
minorities that provide glimpses into the high-level workings of the Carter White House.
Speechwriter Gerald Rafshoon wrote to top White House officials on promoting the
president’s State of the Union address: “It is important that the State of the Union speech
be ‘sold’ properly. . . . The ‘new foundation’ theme will certainly be ridiculed to some
extent by commentators and cartoonists. It is important that we not retreat from it so that
six months from now people will say, ‘Remember that ‘new foundation’ thing Carter
tried? Whatever happened to that?’ The theme will hold up in the long run if we stick to
it” (Reel 20, Frame 0027).
An interesting bit of political advocacy was delivered by Pope John Paul II during his
visit to the United States in 1979. During remarks with Carter on the White House south
lawn, the pope endorses and amplifies Carter’s concerns with world issues like peace and
nuclear disarmament. He then expresses a view on global inequality, however, that goes
further than Carter and seems directed at the United States and other wealthy nations:
“Since people are suffering under international inequality, there can be no question of
giving up the pursuit of international solidarity, even if it involves a notable change in the
attitudes and lifestyles of those blessed with a larger share of the world’s goods” (Reel
18, Frame 0373).
A persistent theme that runs throughout the collection concerns the continuing
economic, social, and political domination of black Americans and other minorities by a
predominant white culture. One document quotes black abolitionist Frederick Douglass
on the de facto continuing slavery of southern Blacks after emancipation:
“[Emancipation] did not deprive the old master of the power of life and death which was
the soul of the relation of master and slave. [The old masters] could not of course sell
them, but they retained the power to starve them to death, and wherever this power is
held, there is the power of slavery. He who can say to his fellow man, ‘You shall serve
me or starve’ is a master, and his subject is a slave” (Reel 14, Frame 0277).

ivil Rights During the Carter Administration, 1977–1981,
Part 1: Papers of the Special Assistant for Black Affairs,
Section C brings together a large set of documents on
significant civil rights issues, events, and personalities during the
1977–1981 presidency of Jimmy Carter.
The documents are those collected by the office of Louis E.
Martin, special assistant to the president, who oversaw the Carter
administration’s handling of civil rights issues and minority affairs
and kept a close eye on the views of black Americans on Carter’s
policies.
The Carter years saw black Americans and members of other
minorities make significant progress toward equal treatment and
opportunity in various social realms such as education, housing,
and employment, even as they continued to confront entrenched
discrimination in certain areas.
The Carter administration made a serious commitment to help
back Americans and other minorities move toward economic parity
with whites. In particular, the administration devoted considerable
energy and resources to initiatives designed to encourage the
formation of minority-owned businesses and put them on an equal
footing with corporations owned or managed by the dominant
culture.
In a large number of collection documents, black leaders and
organizations expressed serious concern, even outrage, over what
they perceived as the Carter administration’s strategy to attack
inflation by cutting federal spending. These individuals and groups
feared that budget cuts would deplete social programs benefiting
minorities and the poor, even as Louis Martin, President Carter,
Vice President Walter F. Mondale, and others tried to reassure
them that funding for the neediest citizens would not be reduced.
