- Description:
- Consists of correspondence of E.T. Kehrer with staff of the Alliance for Labor Action (ALA). Topics include expansion of the ALA in the Atlanta area, ALA use of advertising in labor organizing efforts, and a 1971 seminar organized by ALA on drug abuse in the workplace.
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:
