- Description:
- Consists of a survey conducted by the Florida Council on Human Relations (FCHR) to identify discrimination by the Florida State Employment Service. Members of the FCHR observed and interviewed staff at offices of the Florida State Employment Service and reported their findings, primarily that services appeared to be nondiscriminatory and integrated, but that there were few African American staff members. Includes survey from five cities.
The records, 1964-1979, of the Southern Office of the AFL-CIO Civil Rights Department consist primarily of correspondence and related reports, surveys, statements, and newspaper clippings. Much of the correspondence is between Director E.T. (Al) Kehrer and various AFL-CIO departments, notably his superiors Don Slaiman (1965-1974) and William Pollard (1974-1979). There is also substantial correspondence between Kehrer and the AFL-CIO state and city labor councils in the South; apprenticeship and training programs; a wide range of groups and persons concerned with community action and social reform issues, principally in the field of civil rights; and political figures. - External Identifiers:
