- Description:
- Consists of correspondence of E.T. Kehrer with staff and individuals involved with the Georgia Council on Economic Education (GCEE), a branch of the Joint Council on Economic Education founded in 1972 to improve economics instruction in Georgia colleges and universities. Contents include requests for Kehrer's participation in workshops and courses, discussion of a dispute over Georgia State University's role in supporting the GCEE, and a letter to Kehrer from AFL-CIO economist Nathaniel Goldfinger encouraging Kehrer to forcefully promote the union perspective while working with the GCEE.
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:
