Processing Information
The records were received in forty-six over-stuffed, 1/3 c.f. archival boxes.
Material appears to have been removed from filing cabinets and placed in archival
boxes. Original order appears to have been preserved. During processing in
2008/2009, metal fasteners and tape were removed and the documents were
placed in acid-free folders. Copies were made of newspaper clippings and poor
quality paper documents onto acid free paper. When possible and if applicable,
the file title was taken from the original file folder. Series were created according
to the subject matter of the records. Original file names were preserved as they
were found on the folders.

History
The Tuskegee Civic Association, a nonprofit organization, was founded on April 13, 1941 at a
meeting held at Greenwood Missionary Baptist Church, Tuskegee Institute, Alabama. The
Reverend Charles W. Kelly was the pastor. The organization grew out of two earlier groups,
The Men’s Meeting of the 1920s and the Tuskegee Men’s Club of the 1930s. In 1938, The
Men’s Meeting was formally organized into The Tuskegee Men’s Club. It elected Charles G.
Gomillion as its President. Under Gomillion’s leadership, the organization focused on the
conditions of citizens of Tuskegee-Macon County; set definite goals and set out to develop
programs to attain those goals. A constitution was adopted and regular meetings continued to be
held I churches across the community. On January 7, 1941, The Tuskegee Men’s Club opened
membership to other Tuskegee citizens. In order to increase its effectiveness and to embrace all
segments of the population, the club, on April 13, 1941, amended its constitution and changed its
name to The Tuskegee Civic Association.

The organization’s founders represented men from various professions: Charles G. Gomillion;
John O.H. Amakyi; William H. Carter; The Reverend Charles W. Kelly; Wendell B. Wrenn; J.
D. Reed; C. G. Campfield; Wallace W. Hayes; A. P. Mack; W.A. Richardson and Earl F.
Sorrell, all employees of Tuskegee Institute. Other founders were L. W. Hemmons; Warner
Kennedy and Milton Hicks, who were employees of the V.A. Hospital. Other included Reverend
T.R. Newman of the AME Church; Dr. C. A. Walwyn, a practicing physician and first year two
women joined TCA- Mrs. Jennie E. Gomillion, a librarian at Tuskegee Institute, and Lucille
Henry, a teacher in Macon County Public Schools. Mrs. Gomillion was the first woman to be
officially enrolled into the association.
The Tuskegee Civic Association’s general objective was to promote the civic well-being of
Tuskegee and Macon County. This was achieved through its many community programs which
included civic education, voter registration, political education and action, community welfare
and economic education. The organization was very instrumental in the initiation and execution
of several legal action cases that had far reaching effect on the status of African Americans in
Tuskegee-Macon County, as well a in the state and nation. One of the most notable of these legal
cases was C. G. Gomillion, et.al. v Phil M. Lightfoot, a gerrymander case which was won by
TCA and kept African American in Tuskegee and Macon County vote from being diluted;
thereby increasing voter registration and participation. The legal efforts of TCA laid the
groundwork that led to the Voter’s Right Act and other legislation to protect the rights of
minorities in many areas.
Scope and Contents

Association, 1941-1970. The bulk of the records date between 1945 and 1968;
with some dated as late as 1969. They include correspondence, business
documents, newspaper clippings, articles, pamphlets and other miscellaneous
documents. The records are potentially valuable to those interested in researching
a history of sociological thought regarding the lives of African Americans,
Democratic thought and the history of the Civil Rights Movement, particularly
regarding events in Tuskegee, Macon County, Alabama leading up to the
landmark Supreme Court case of Gomillion vs. Lightfoot.
