  • FREEDOM PRIMER No.L
    FREEDOM PRIMER No.l The Convention Challenge and The Freedom Vote THE CHALLENGE AT THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION What Was The Democratic National Convention? The Democratic National Convention was a big meeting held by the National Democratic Party at Atlantic City in August. People who represent the Party came to the Convention from every state in the country. They came to decide who would be the candidates of the Democratic Party for President and Vice-President of the United States in the election this year on November 3rd. They also came to decide what the Platform of the National Democratic Party would be. The Platform is a paper that says what the Party thinks should be done about things like Housing, Education, Welfare, and Civil Rights. Why Did The Freedom Democratic Party Go To The Convention? The Freedom Democratic Party (FDP) sent a delegation of 68 people to the Convention. These people wanted to represent you at the Convention. They said that they should be seated at the Convention instead of the people sent by the Regular Democratic Party of Mississippi. The Regular Democratic Party of Mississippi only has white people in it. But the Freedom Democratic Party is open to all people -- black and white. So the delegates from the Freedom Democratic Party told the Convention ±t was the real representative of all the people of Mississippi. How Was The Regular Democratic Party Delegation Chosen? The Regular Democratic Party of Mississippi also sent 68 -^ people to the Convention in Atlantic City. But these people were not chosen by all the people of Mississippi.
