- Description:
- Consists primarily of correspondence of E.T. Kehrer with staff of the Atlanta Community Relations Commission. Topics include Kehrer's support for the candidacy of John B. Morris, head of the Episcopal Society for Cultural and Racial Unity (ESCRU), for head of the Commission in 1967 and 1968. Also include published materials on the Commission's activities in 1973.
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:
