SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE
This supplement to Part 1 of Papers of the NAACP documents the main contours
of NAACP activity between 1966 and 1970. During this period, the NAACP
reaffirmed its commitment to ending racial discrimination in all aspects of American
life. Having achieved spectacular successes in the courtroom and the passage of
civil rights legislation, particularly the landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the
Voting Rights Act of 1965, beginning in 1966 the NAACP moved to ensure the
implementation and enforcement of this crucial legislation. The association was
particularly concerned with school desegregation and discrimination by employers
and by labor unions. The NAACP also worked for the enactment of legislation in
areas not covered by the laws passed in 1964 and 1965. NAACP initiatives against
housing discrimination culminated in the inclusion of an open housing provision in the
Civil Rights Act of 1968. In addition to its traditional concerns, between 1966 and
1970 the NAACP also faced new challenges. The association struggled to respond
to the growing anti–Vietnam War movement, the upstart black power movement, the
problems facing African Americans living in urban ghettos, and Nixon administration
policies on civil rights and school desegregation.
Minutes of Board of Directors Meetings
The board of directors was the highest policy-making body in the NAACP, and its
meeting minutes constitute the central record of activities of the organization. The
meetings usually included reports from the executive director, assistant executive
director, treasurer, general counsel, branch director, public relations director,
Washington bureau director, and the Crisis editor. The board took the meeting as a
time to question and assess NAACP policy as well as to make decisions about the
future course of the association. For example, at the January 3, 1966, meeting,
executive director Roy Wilkins reported that a letter had recently been sent to AFLCIO president George Meany requesting that another African American member be
added to the AFL-CIO’s executive council. At that time, A. Philip Randolph was the
only African American member of the AFL-CIO’s executive council. At the same
meeting, the board voted that NAACP branch presidents should resign their branch
positions if they were elected to hold political office. At the April 10, 1967, meeting,
the association took time to respond to Martin Luther King’s April 4, 1967, speech at
New York City’s Riverside Church in which he criticized U.S. involvement in the war
in Vietnam. The NAACP’s statement sought to separate the peace movement and
the civil rights movement. The statement read, in part: “To attempt to merge the civil
rights movement with the peace movement, or to assume that one is dependent on
the other, is, in our judgment, a serious tactical mistake.” The board of directors also
handled a number of important administrative duties, including fund-raising, the
certification of new branches, and the adjudication of disputes within branches.
v
Executive Director’s Reports
The reports of the NAACP executive director, Roy Wilkins, were submitted to the
board of directors for consideration at the board meetings. The executive director
reported on major events affecting the NAACP and the larger black freedom
movement. He also reported on his own activities and those of other NAACP
officials. The reports are very detailed and reveal the executive director trying to
carry out NAACP policies and his involvement in many of the most important events
and campaigns of this period. A sampling of some of the topics covered in these
reports gives an indication of Wilkins’s activities. For example, in January 1966,
Wilkins reported that he had attended the funeral of murdered Mississippi civil rights
worker Vernon Dahmer, protested the exclusion of Julian Bond from the Georgia
legislature, and contacted U.S. senators regarding civil rights legislation and the
repeal of section 14-B—the so called “right-to-work” provision—of the Taft-Hartley
Act. In April 1966, Wilkins attended a planning meeting for the White House
Conference on Civil Rights; spoke at a branch meeting in Troy, New York; contacted
Sargent Shriver regarding a community action program run by James Farmer; and
wired members of Congress to express his views about rent subsidies. In the
summer of 1966, Wilkins was on Capitol Hill testifying before Congress about civil
rights legislation. The July/August 1967 report notes that Wilkins had been appointed
to the National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders. This same report includes
the text of a statement made after the riots in Newark and Detroit by Wilkins, Martin
Luther King Jr., Whitney M. Young Jr., and A. Philip Randolph. The statement called
for an end to the violence as well as a redoubling of efforts to end discrimination in
employment, education, housing, and the criminal justice system.
The executive director’s reports also include the reports of other NAACP
departments, including the Church, Labor, Youth, Public Relations, Membership, and
Branch departments. The reports submitted by the Branch Department were
frequently the most detailed, providing a quick and pointed overview of NAACP
activities on a regional, state, and local level. For example, the July/August 1966
report includes summaries of the Louisiana Summer Project and the South Carolina
Agricultural Project. This same report also mentions demonstrations by the NAACP
youth council in Milwaukee, Wisconsin; riots in Waukegan, Illinois, and Benton
Harbor, Michigan; and voter registration activities in Mississippi, Tennessee, and
Maryland. The March 1968 report has reports on housing, employment, voter
registration, consumer protection, memberships, and antipoverty programs. The
March 1970 report contains a report on the relationship between the United Black
Protest Committee and the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, NAACP; a summary of the
progress of school desegregation in Darlington County, South Carolina; a report on
employment in Memphis, Tennessee; and an update from field director Harvey
Britton on Louisiana schools. A listing of the major topics covered in the executive
director’s reports can be found in the Reel Index of this guide.
Records of Annual Meetings
The main function of the annual business meetings was to elect the board of
directors from the list of candidates offered by the nominating committee. The annual
meeting was open to the entire NAACP membership, but in practice, only a few
hundred members typically attended. This group of annual meeting records is notable
because it contains several speeches by Roy Wilkins. In these speeches, Wilkins
vi
generally summarized the accomplishments and major issues of the previous year
and outlined NAACP plans for the upcoming year. For example, in his 1966 speech,
Wilkins addressed the 1965 Watts riot and implementation of civil rights legislation,
particularly in the area of school desegregation. In his 1968 speech, Wilkins provided
a detailed summary of NAACP programs in employment, education, housing, civil
rights legislation, and voter registration. Wilkins’s 1970 message to the annual
meeting focused on the Nixon administration and the activities of some of the
NAACP’s approximately seventeen hundred branches. NAACP finances and
memberships were also major topics of Wilkins’s speeches because it was through
membership dues that the NAACP financed much of its activism.
Records of Annual Conventions
The NAACP annual conventions served a number of important functions.
Foremost among these was setting the policy and legislative agenda of the
association for the ensuing year. This function was carried out primarily through the
passing of resolutions, which are, therefore, an important source for understanding
NAACP policy. At the conventions from 1966 to 1970, resolutions were passed on
topics such as civil rights legislation, antipoverty programs, school desegregation,
housing, discrimination by employers and labor unions, riots, the United Farm
Workers, home rule for Washington, D.C., the 1968 Olympics, the war in Vietnam,
affirmative action programs, and women’s rights.
Another important function of the conventions was public relations. To this end,
special events such as testimonial banquets and award ceremonies were scheduled.
Prominent individuals were invited to address the convention or to submit a written
greeting. The file of greetings to the convention is an interesting source for analyzing
the political milieu in which the NAACP operated. There are letters from leading
politicians, like Lyndon Baines Johnson and Hubert Humphrey; from top labor
leaders, including George Meany and Walter P. Reuther; and from leaders of
religious organizations and other civil rights organizations.
Speeches by major NAACP leaders and other prominent figures were used both to
establish the NAACP’s agenda and to provide publicity for the association. The
speeches in this edition address many of the most pressing issues facing the
NAACP between 1966 and 1970. One of the most important speeches in this period
was Roy Wilkins’s speech at the 1966 convention, in which he discussed the
concept of black power, a concept that had been articulated by Stokely Carmichael
on June 17, 1966, at a rally in Greenwood, Mississippi. Wilkins told the convention:
“No matter how endlessly they try to explain it, the term ‘black power’ means antiwhite power…. It has to mean separatism.” Wilkins continued: “We of the NAACP
will have none of this. We have fought it too long.” Wilkins’s speech was clearly the
highlight of the 1966 convention. Correspondence in the 1966 convention greetings
file (Reel 3, Frame 0209) and in the Roy Wilkins keynote address file (Reel 4, Frame
0177) contains many letters praising Wilkins’s speech, especially his criticism of
black power. Other speakers at the 1966 convention included Esther Peterson,
Harry Golden, and James E. Jones. The text of their speeches, and Roy Wilkins’s
keynote address, can be found beginning at Frame 0081 of Reel 4.
Following the urban riots of 1967 and the widespread rioting that occurred after the
assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. on April 4, 1968, the 1968 NAACP convention
in Atlantic City focused on the theme of extending NAACP programs to urban
vii
ghettos and developing political and economic power in these areas. At the opening
session of the convention, NAACP board chairman Stephen Gill Spottswood used
his keynote address to reaffirm the NAACP’s traditional commitments and to argue
that the NAACP continued to be relevant to the hopes and aspirations of the majority
of African Americans. Spottswood declared: “We remind America that for 59 years
the NAACP has been struggling to remove the strangling inequalities of the ghetto
which have stimulated the riots.” He continued: “We are for the strengthening of the
ghetto but not for the development of the ghetto-state…. We speak for the vast,
though little publicized, majority of Negro Americans…. Inclusion is their goal, not
exclusion.” Other speakers at the 1968 convention offered their perspectives on the
challenges facing the NAACP and all African Americans as they sought to remedy
the “urban crisis.” Vivian Henderson, president of Clark College in Atlanta, Georgia,
centered her remarks on the importance of employment. She recognized that the civil
rights legislation of the mid-1960s was an important achievement, but she also
argued that this legislation had not yet tangibly affected the lives of the majority of
African Americans. She argued that employment was the best way to positively
impact the lives of the residents of America’s central cities. Ruth Harvey of Danville,
Virginia, and Julian Bond, a former Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee
member and in 1968 a member of the Georgia House of Representatives, both
stressed the need for unity among African Americans and the importance of political
power.
When the association met in Cincinnati, Ohio, in June 1970 for its sixty-first
convention, Richard Nixon had been in the White House for about eighteen months.
The NAACP and its allies felt this was long enough to evaluate the Nixon
administration and they clearly did not like what they were seeing. Several speakers
at the 1970 convention directed pointed critiques at the Nixon administration. The
most controversial speech was delivered by Stephen Gill Spottswood, who began
with a very brief list of some of the NAACP’s accomplishments since it had last met
in Cincinnati. He then quickly made his way to the heart of his speech. Spottswood
declared: “For the first time since Woodrow Wilson, we have a national administration
that can rightly be characterized as anti-Negro. This is the first time since 1920 that
the national administration had made it a matter of calculated policy to work against
the needs and aspirations of the largest minority of its citizens.” Spottswood then
listed nine instances of Nixon’s “anti-Negro” policies, including efforts to delay school
desegregation, the nominations of Clement Haynsworth and G. Harrold Carswell to
the Supreme Court, attempts to weaken the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and signing of
defense contracts with textile companies that had records of employment
discrimination. Spottswood also argued that Nixon’s policies were giving
encouragement to white racists. Other speakers were also critical of the Nixon
administration. Leon E. Panetta questioned the administration’s policies on school
desegregation and NAACP Labor Department head Herbert Hill criticized the
Philadelphia Plan.
Not surprisingly, the Nixon administration quickly responded to these speeches.
This edition includes a telegram to Roy Wilkins from Leonard Garment, special
consultant to Nixon, defending Nixon’s policies. Garment argued that the Philadelphia
Plan, family food assistance programs, and the naming of African Americans to
policy-making positions were among some of the administration’s accomplishments.
Garment also argued that Spottswood misrepresented Nixon’s policies in the areas
of employment and school desegregation. Garment’s telegram is followed by a reply
viii
from Spottswood and several other letters mentioning Spottswood’s speech (Reel
10, Frame 0075). The August–September 1970 issue of the Crisis contains excerpts
of newspaper reaction to Spottswood’s speech and to Herbert Hill’s speech on the
Philadelphia Plan. This Crisis issue also includes a detailed summary of the 1970
convention.
The 1970 convention was also notable because of another speech by Roy Wilkins.
Consistent with the “one society” theme of the convention, Wilkins spoke about his
objections to black separatism. Wilkins began by reminding the audience that, since
1909, the NAACP had fought for “achieving ‘the realization of common opportunities
for all within in a single society.’” Wilkins argued that integration was the only way for
African Americans to achieve equality. Wilkins also indicated that he understood the
importance of black culture and black consciousness. He stressed that integration
did not translate into a “loss of identity” or a “loss of color distinction” or “the
complete burying of a culture.” Wilkins’s speech shows the NAACP attempting to
respond to the militancy of the late 1960s without abandoning its traditional
commitments. The text of Wilkins’s speech and the other speeches from the 1970
convention can be found beginning at Frame 0338 of Reel 12.
In addition to establishing the NAACP’s agenda and providing publicity for the
association, another important function of the conventions was to provide the
opportunity for personal communication between the national officers and the
NAACP branches. Sometimes complaints about local branches or complaints from
local branches about the national administration of the NAACP were aired at the
convention. For example, this edition includes a complaint from the Delaware State
Conference that they had been “ruthlessly eliminated from participation” in policymaking deliberations. There are two documents from the National Committee to
Revitalize the NAACP Movement, an NAACP group from New York State that feared
the NAACP was losing “the respect and confidence of the black masses” (Reel 6,
Frame 0790). The convention also afforded NAACP branches a degree of input on
the national program. Several of the resolutions files in this edition contain
suggestions from branch offices. Branch delegates also served on a number of the
standing committees governing the operation of the convention, including the
Advance Drafting Committee and the Committee on Convention Procedures.
