SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE
This edition includes both General Office and Legal Department files of the
NAACP national office for the period between 1951 and 1955. In May 1954,
the NAACP won the landmark constitutional decision in Brown v. Board of
Education, which outlawed segregation in education and by implication in all
areas of American life. The documents on this microfilm provide a detailed
account of the thoughts and actions of the NAACP leadership during the three
years leading up to the Brown decision and the two years following--a period
capped by another U.S. Supreme Court decision in 1955 attempting to clarify
Brown. The background case files used in preparation of the Brown decision
are part of the Legal Department Files in this edition. Researchers also
should be aware of the companion editions of Papers of the NAACP, Part 3:
The Campaign for Educational Equality: Series A (1913-1940), Series B
(1940-1950), and Series D (1956-1965).
In addition, the present edition contains some material dated as early as
1940. This material was part of an acquisition received by the Library of
Congress after Part 3B was microfilmed. It is concentrated in two series of the
General Office Files: "Education" and "Schools." The descriptions of the
series that follow indicate the locations of these earlier documents.
The General Office Files run from Reel 1 through Reel 17, frame 0502. The
Legal Department Files begin on frame 0503 of Reel 17 and run through the
end of Reel 23. The Legal Department Files are a proportionately smaller
component of the records because by 1951, most litigation was being handled
by the NAACP Scholarship, Education, and Legal Defense Fund, Inc. (known
as the "Inc. Fund"). The Inc. Fund and the NAACP Legal Department
maintained separate offices and the Inc. Fund records remain unopened at
the Library of Congress. A complex relationship evolved between the Inc.
Fund and the Legal Department. Both agencies took up educational equality
cases and consulted with local civil rights attorneys who developed such
cases. The Legal Department Files are an important part of the NAACP's
legacy in the campaign for educational equality, but the Inc. Fund records,
when they are opened, will be necessary to complete the full picture.
The General Office Files provide a window on the activities of both the
Legal Department and the Inc. Fund. The largest series of General Office
Files--those for "Desegregation" and "Schools"--contain communications
between the NAACP national office and local attorneys and branches.
Whether they were assisted by the Inc. Fund or the Legal Department,
branches used the national office for guidance and coordination. The
communications provide an often detailed account of the legal campaign to
dismantle segregated education in scores of communities throughout the
country. The files are arranged alphabetically, and there is often overlapping
(or complementary) coverage of issues among the separate series.
"Desegregation, Schools" is the first and also one of the largest series in
the edition. These files provide excellent accounts of the anticipation of the
Brown v. Board of Education decision by local NAACP leaders and more
importantly of the follow-up on Brown at the local level. They describe the first
efforts of African Americans to register at previously all-white schools, the
filing of petitions to local boards of education requesting compliance with the
Supreme Court ruling, and resistance of the white majority to integration. The
NAACP's coordination of the integration drive is apparent in most of the files.
The association organized petition drives and filed lawsuits when the petitions
were ignored or refused. Described below in the "Schools" series is a
subgroup of files on an "Integration Conference" that the NAACP held in 1954
to train local branch leaders in ways to pursue the implementation of the
Brown decision.
The files for southern states document a range of segregationist strategies.
These include modest gestures such as establishing "study committees" in
lieu of immediate compliance; they include the sponsorship of local referenda
permitting localities to opt out of integration plans; and they include more
extreme measures, such as white boycotts of integrated public schools, the
establishment of state-supported "private" schools (in Virginia), and the use of
physical violence or economic reprisals against local civil rights advocates.
Several of the "Desegregation" files document efforts by the NAACP to
address de facto segregation in northern or western cities. De facto school
segregation was based largely on segregated housing patterns that rendered
many neighborhood schools racially isolated institutions. The NAACP
attacked de facto segregation more agressively after 1955 when a special
legal assistant was hired to formulate a coordinated response to this situation.
(This is well documented in Part 3D, 1956-1965.) However, several of the
files in this edition reveal early attempts to come to grips with the problem.
The New York City files include records of the city's attempt to assess the
extent of de facto segregation in its public school system.
Another frequent topic engaged by local NAACP branches was the
oppositon to continued federal funding for segregated facilities. Additional
material under a separate file series on "Federal Aid to Education" is
described below.
The predicament of African American school teachers during desegregation
efforts is another recurrent topic. Where school integration was accomplished,
frequently these teachers were dismissed from their jobs. Some systems,
such as New York City's, made special efforts to hire more African American
teachers. There is more material on this subject in the "Education" and
"Schools" series.
The "Education" series begins at frame 0287 of Reel 5 and continues
through frame 0781 of Reel 9. This is a series with a significant amount of
material dating before 1951. The arrangement begins with a General file
arranged in chronological order by year. These "Education, General" files run
through frame 0605 of Reel 7. A range of subject-specific education files
follows the General files.
The "Education, General" files contain information on the education of
African Americans dating back to 1940. There are studies of segregated
elementary education in the South, applications for and information about
scholarship programs for African Americans, and information about federal
aid to education programs. There is an especially rich concentration of
material on New York City schools in the 1940s and early 1950s, including
board of education attitudes toward African Americans, the hiring of black
school teachers, and intercultural education programs. Programs and policies
of the National Education Association on race relations are also well
documented in this series. There is quite a bit of material on scholarships for
African Americans during the 1940s. Interestingly, the NAACP refused to
cooperate with programs that targeted blacks to the exclusion of whites. The
1946-1947 folder contains an early report on the problem of de facto school
segregation. In the 1950s, these files reflect some of the heated controversy
over school integration, including the dismissals of African American teachers
and the suppression of interracial meetings at southern colleges. There is
also material on religion and civil liberties issues in public education.
The subject-specific files on education include several relating to opinion
surveys of integration in education. (See, for example, Opinions of College
Students, Reactions of College Students and Educators, and Student
Attitudes in the South.) The "Massachusetts" section contains a great deal on
the "Springfield (Mass.) Plan" of intercultural education in public schools
during the early 1940s. On the other end of the spectrum, the segregationist
"Regional Education" program in the South is documented in several
extensive folders. There are two separate folders on employment
opportunities for African American teachers: "Qualified Negro Teachers" and
"Teachers."
The next major series is "Federal Aid to Education," which runs from frame
0782 of Reel 9 to frame 0162 of Reel 10. These files document the NAACP
campaign to protest the use of federal aid for segregated schools. The files
show that the campaign was dramatically upgraded in 1955 after the Brown
decision. The continuing campaign on this issue is covered in The Campaign
for Educational Equality, Part 3D, 1956-1965.
The "Scholarship" series runs from frame 0163 on Reel 10 through Reel 11,
frame 0089. It documents NAACP efforts to administer a scholarship program
in higher education. The association resolved not to limit its scholarships to
African Americans on the grounds that it would not tolerate racial restrictions
in any form. Financial donations and scholarship applications are included.
The "Schools" series runs from frame 0090 of Reel 11 through frame 0745
of Reel 13. This series also dates as early as 1940. Like the "Education"
series, it includes a large "Schools, General" subseries and a number of more
subject-specific files. Many of the same issues that were covered in the
"Education" series are also covered here. However, many of the exchanges
pertain to specific instutitions, particularly traditional African American
colleges such as Central State University, Tougaloo, the Penn School,
Tuskegee, and the University of Atlanta. The activities of the Southern
Conference Education Fund, a pioneer of interracial cooperation, are
documented in this series.
The subject-specific files include a series on "Incidents," which documents
violence and intimidation against African American students as well as school
boycotts by white segregationists. All of the cases concern schools in the
northern cities of New York, Chicago, and Gary, Indiana.
Another important subseries covers the "Integration Conference" sponsored
by the NAACP in Philadelphia during December 1954. This conference
convened NAACP branch leaders to develop a nationwide strategy for
implementing the Brown v. Board of Education decision. The conference
provided local leaders with legal advice on how to sue, as well as on
developing local-level political networks in support of integration. Some of the
branches were already engaged in the implementation of Brown, and their
reports to the conference provide a look at early integration battles in such
states as Delaware, West Virginia, Maryland, and the District of Columbia.
The follow-through on these plans is well documented in the "Desegregation,
Schools" series described above and also in the next series, "Supreme Court,
School Cases."
The series on "Supreme Court, School Cases" is dominated by a large
subseries of "General" files arranged chronologically by year. The series
provides excellent material on the anticipation of responses to the Brown
decision. This includes preparations for the likelihood of white mob violence,
preparations to meet rising expectations of African Americans with a follow-up
program, and strengthening the resolve to confront the problem of de facto
segregation.
The "General" subseries also documents actual reactions to the Brown
decision, including defiant statements by southern officials, expressions of
support for the NAACP from liberal organizations, and internal NAACP
strategies to implement the decision. A separate file under "May 17th
Decision" includes a variety of public reactions to Brown. The "Press
Releases" subseries includes the NAACP press releases about the Brown
decision.
There are also subject-specific files in the "Supreme Court, School Cases"
series. Three relate to the racial impact of school siting policies (Amityville,
New York, Benton Harbor, Michigan, and Yonkers, New York). The "Church
Groups" and "Education Groups" files show the development of prointegration political networks among national and southern regional
organizations. The "Atlanta Meeting" files cover an NAACP-sponsored
conference on the implementation of the Brown decision.
The Legal Department Files begin at frame 0503 on Reel 17. Some of
these also date back to 1940s, althought the biggest cluster are the early
1950s background files on Brown v. Board of Education. The files are
arranged alphabetically. The first subseries is on "Education." These are
background files that contain information on some of the NAACP's major
education issues of the 1940s, including equalization of segregated facilities,
equalization of teachers' salaries, and admission of African Americans to
universities and professional schools.
The next subseries, "Schools," is arranged alphabetically by state. A few
files that had been previously microfilmed with Part 3B, The Campaign for
Educational Equality, 1940-1950, were found to have been augmented with
new material that was archived after the microfilming for Part 3B was
completed. Those files have been refilmed in their entirety for this edition.
Several of the files are backgound files on discrimination complaints rather
than case files, but there are a few case files as well. At the end of the Legal
Files on Reel 23, there are a few files on "Teachers' Salaries" cases and one
file on a "Universities" admission case.
The large subseries on the Brown case is filed under "Schools, Topeka."
The background files include materials on the psychological impact of
segregation, lists of questions for witnesses in the case, descriptions of
Topeka school facilities, and a great deal of historical material compiled by
scholars such as C. Vann Woodward and John Hope Franklin on topics
including the legislative history of the Fourteenth Amendment, the preReconstruction era "black codes," nineteenth-century popular attitudes toward
African Americans, and turn of the century state segregation laws. In addition
to these background materials, there are numerous files of draft legal
instruments including complaints, arguments, and briefs. And there are
several files of attorneys' internal communications, progress reports, and
conference notes. In addition to the Topeka, Kansas, materials, there are also
extensive background files on the Delaware and South Carolina integration
cases.
