Topics are wide-ranging and include the civil rights movements of the 1960s; the anti-urban renewal struggles of the 1960s and '70s; labor and left-wing movements from the 1970s to the present; the religious left; and community organizing as a grassroots model for civic engagement. The collection includes correspondence, research and position papers, outreach and training materials, drafts of Miller's work, public documents, and books. Language of Material: Materials primarily in English, with a limited amount in Spanish and Portuguese. Conditions Governing Access Collection is open for research. Immediate Source of Acquisition Purchased from Mike Miller, 2011. Arrangement The collection is divided into five series, roughly following Mike Miller's original filing scheme: 1) Organizational records; 2) Subject files; 3) Manuscripts and personal papers; 4) Audiovisual materials; and 5) Publications and ephemera. The Organizational records series is broken down into a number of subseries containing materials from various organizations with which Miller has worked. The Subject files series is likewise separated into many subseries, most of them reflecting Miller's own arrangement and labeling of his voluminous subject files. The Manuscripts series is broken down into four subseries, comprising Mike Miller's college papers, his manuscripts and articles, the materials he used as a university instructor, and his correspondence. Materials in the Audiovisual materials and Publications and ephemera series are unarranged. Biographical History Mike Miller was born in 1937 and first became involved in activism as a student at the University of California, Berkeley, where he majored in political science and sociology and acted as a founding member of the leftist student government faction SLATE. After 1962, Miller worked full-time for the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, registering voters in Mississippi, among other accomplishments. In 1966, he accepted a job working for Saul Alinsky at the Industrial Areas Foundation, and in 1972 he returned to the Bay Area to begin the neighborhood organization and training work that has constituted the bulk of his career. With the Mission Coalition Organization (MCO), he worked to avert so-called urban renewal efforts, which in practice tended to break down neighborhoods that had historically been home to marginalized people. At the same time, the MCO participated in a Lyndon Johnson program called Model Cities, which was intended to fund and strengthen local, grassroots political power. As founder of the ORGANIZE! Training Center, Miller also began to train residents and union members in the organization techniques he had learned both from experience and from his work with Alinsky, going on to a sixty-year organizing career. Custodial History Materials were compiled by Mike Miller and stored in his home until they were purchased in 2011 by the California Historical Society. Preferred Citation [Identification of item, date]; Mike Miller papers, MS 4139; [box number, folder number]; California Historical Society. Processing Information Materials were left in their original folders when those folders were in good condition; folders that had deteriorated were replaced. Most folders were left undated, and their dates in the finding aid represent the broad circa dates of the entire collection; in a few cases, folders whose original date ranges were on their original labels have been assigned these narrower dates. A few subseries, all in the Organizational records series, were processed at a higher level due to their likely interest to researchers: Mission Coalition Organization, La Guardia Tenants' Association and other housing organizations, All Peoples' Coalition, and San Francisco Organizing Project. These subseries have been precisely dated and refoldered in legal-sized Finding Aid to the Mike Miller MS 4139 2 Papers, MS 4139 folders. Related Materials Although this series contains a subseries on the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), the materials in it are limited and largely consist of photocopies. The bulk of Miller's records from his time with SNCC were donated to the University of Southern Mississippi . Scope and Contents The Mike Miller papers document Miller's six decades as a community organizer, comprising institutional records, writings, and extensive subject files of the donor's research into the history and practice of organizing. Topics are wide-ranging and include the civil rights movements of the 1960s; the anti-urban renewal struggles of the 1960s and '70s; labor and left-wing movements from the 1970s to the present; the religious left; and community organizing as a grassroots model for civic engagement. The collection includes correspondence, research and position papers, outreach and training materials, drafts of Miller's work, public documents, and books. The content of Miller's papers reflects his early involvement with the student civil rights organizations SLATE and Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC); his work as the principal organizer for the Mission Coalition Organization (MCO), a grassroots coalition of approximately twenty-five community organizations that resisted top-down urban renewal efforts in San Francisco's predominantly Latino Mission District in the late '60s and early '70s; and his decades-long community organizing work as director of the San Francisco nonprofit ORGANIZE! Training Center (OTC), which he founded in 1972. The collection spans the years circa 1958 to 2012. Conditions Governing Use Any rights (including copyright and related rights to publicity and privacy) held by Mike Miller were transferred to the California Historical Society (CHS) in 2011 by donor.

These subseries present an unusually complete snapshot of community self-definition and advocacy. The subseries "Christians Supporting Community Organizing (CSCO) and other Marilyn Stranske projects" collects extensive materials related to Miller's colleague, the Evangelical organizer Marilyn Stranske, and her lifelong mission of faith-based advocacy.

Its local work currently focuses on preventing evictions as a result of foreclosures. Most people come to City Life out of the desire to save their homes. However, all City Life organizers noted that saving one’s own home appears to have no impact on one becoming a long-term participant in the movement, or a negative impact when this is accomplished through purely service rather than service-supported direct action.

  • Locked Down: the Hidden History of the Prisoners' Rights Movement
    Locked Down: The Hidden History of the Prisoners’ Rights Movement Tiana Alexandria Williams* Mentor: Dr. Jesse Drew Department of Cinema and Digital Media, UC Davis Abstract In recent years, there has been an increasing discourse centered on the prison-industrial complex, addressing issues that range from ending the school-to-prison pipeline to calls for the abolition of prisons entirely. However, this movement is far from a novelty, rather, it is the resurgence of a forgotten moment in history that is being revitalized by a new generation. In order to understand the recent development of the anti- incarceration movement, it is important to provide context to these current conversations and ensure that the contributions of the prisoner’s rights movement are properly understood. Through the uncovering and analysis of archival materials, collections of recorded oral histories and published prison letters, this paper illustrates how prisoner activism of the 1970s brought the plight of prisoners into the limelight, while also leading to increased systemic repression and a debilitating historical declension narrative. By highlighting this history of prisoner activism, this paper challenges the declension hypothesis approach to the prisoners’ rights movement and investigates the movement’s effects on the current day structure of the criminal justice system. Introduction The prisoners’ rights movement is an undermentioned and understudied movement that grew for decades in the United States, finally reaching maximum visibility in the early 1970s. The dominant narrative surrounding the movement can be traced as: The American prison system was cruel, inhumane and unjust. Prisoners fought for better conditions and rights, using similar rhetoric to that of the Civil Rights Movement.
