Copyright © 2019 by The Regents of the University of California Oral History Center, The Bancroft Library, University of California Berkeley ii Since 1954 the Oral History Center of The Bancroft Library, formerly the Regional Oral History Office, has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the nation. Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Herbert Sandler dated February 6, 2017.

  • First to the Party: the Group Origins of the Partisan Transformation on Civil Rights, 1940–1960
    Studies in American Political Development, 27 (October 2013), 1–31. ISSN 0898-588X/13 doi:10.1017/S0898588X13000072 # Cambridge University Press 2013 First to the Party: The Group Origins of the Partisan Transformation on Civil Rights, 1940–1960 Christopher A. Baylor, College of the Holy Cross One of the most momentous shifts in twentieth-century party politics was the Democratic Party’s embrace of civil rights. Recent scholarship finds that this realignment began as early as the 1940s and traces it to pressure groups, especially organized labor. But such scholarship does not explain why labor, which was traditionally hostile to African Americans, began to work with them. Nor does it ascribe agency to the efforts of African American pressure groups. Focusing on the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO), this article attempts to fill these gaps in the literature. It explains why civil rights and labor leaders reassessed their traditional animosities and began to work as allies in the Democratic Party. It further shows how pressure from the new black-blue alliance forced the national Democratic Party to stop straddling civil rights issues and to become instead the vehicle for promoting civil rights. NAACP and CIO leaders consciously sought to remake the Democratic Party by marginalizing conservative Southerners, and eventually succeeded. The partisan transformation on civil rights is arguably became the party of states’ rights. The civil rights the most important twentieth-century case in Ameri- transformation arguably presaged the future partisan can politics in which parties changed positions on division on cultural issues as well.

  • Doris Diether
    Doris Diether An Oral History Interview Conducted for the GVSHP Preservation Archives by Susan DeVries New York, New York July 24, 1996 ABSTRACT Doris Diether is a long-serving member of Manhattan’s Community Board 2 and Greenwich Village preservationist. She begins this interview by discussing her early life and introduction to the Village in the 1950s. She continues by discussing her initial foray into public service—in 1959 she entered the fight to prevent the discontinuation of the city’s free Shakespeare in the Park. That same year Diether helped found Save the Village, a campaign which was focused on reforming zoning and rent laws in Greenwich Village, as well as promoting historic preservation. It was while working with Save the Village that Diether was first introduced to New York City’s zoning laws. She would gain increasing expertise in this area with her subsequent appointment to Manhattan’s Community Board 2 in 1964 and selection as head of the Board’s Zoning Committee in 1965. Diether discusses the origins of the Save the Village campaign, as well as some of its key figures, including Arnold Bergier and Alan Marcus. She talks about some of the campaign’s more imaginative publicity efforts—including one which featured a pig walking a picket line. She also discusses specific issues that the campaign pursued, such as stopping the city’s proposed Verrazano Street and urban renewal project for the South Village. By 1962 Diether would become president of Save the Village. Diether continues the interview by discussing the role of the Save the Village campaign in local politics, as well as her own interaction with the Village Independent Democrats and individuals like Carmine DeSapio and Edward Koch.

Still ferocious, charismatic, and hilariously blunt, the now 88-year-old Koch ruled New York from 1978 to 1989—a down-and-dirty decade of grit, graffiti, near-bankruptcy and rampant crime. First-time filmmaker (and former Wall Street Journal reporter) Neil Barsky has crafted an intimate and revealing portrait of this intensely private man, his legacy as a political titan, and the town he helped transform. The tumult of his three terms included a fiercely competitive 1977 election; an infamous 1980 transit strike; the burgeoning AIDS epidemic; landmark housing renewal initiatives; and an irreparable municipal corruption scandal. Through candid interviews and rare archival footage, Koch thrillingly chronicles the personal and political toll of running the world’s most wondrous city in a time of upheaval and reinvention. LONG SYNOPSIS “Here was a guy who really represented the rough and tumble of New York. And he was just haunted and damned by one helluva personality.” —Rev. Calvin Butts Three-time New York City Mayor (1978–1989) Ed Koch is combative, funny and blunt. He is also intensely private.

  • BATTLING for BROOKLYN HEIGHTS by Martin L
    1 BATTLING FOR BROOKLYN HEIGHTS by Martin L. Schneider Introduction Anthony C. Wood Preservation in New York City has achieved such a level of success that it risks being taken for granted by new generations of New Yorkers; a fate that could translate into a future of unnecessarily lost buildings and disfigured historic neighborhoods. December 2009 saw the designation of the city’s 100th historic district and 2010 marks the 45th anniversary of the passage of New York City’s hard won landmarks law. Preservation in New York certainly has come of age. Contributing to the possibility that future New Yorkers may misguidedly assume preservation is now the city’s default policy position (tragically ignoring the cold reality that the blood of most New York powerbrokers still races at the mere mention of real estate development) is the fact that preservationists have largely failed to tell their stories of the often heroic efforts required to save the city’s landmarks and historic districts. One wonderful exception to this is the story of the saving of Brooklyn Heights. Thanks to the prescience and dedication of those involved in this battle, the struggle to save Brooklyn Heights is the best documented of all New York City’s preservation sagas. Today we are fortunate to have available to us extensive newspaper accounts from that time, numerous original documents, oral histories and personal remembrances. If only the same could be said for other significant chapters in preservation’s history. Thanks to Martin L. Schneider, we now can add to the existing material on Brooklyn Heights, this compelling narrative “Battling for Brooklyn Heights.” Told through the eyes of a witness to history and capturing the emotions of one who lived through it, Mr.
