  • Eisenhower, Dwight D.: Post-Presidential Papers, 1961-69
    EISENHOWER, DWIGHT D.: POST-PRESIDENTIAL PAPERS, 1961-69 1963 PRINCIPAL FILE SERIES DESCRIPTION The 1963 Principal File served as the main office file for Dwight D. Eisenhower’s Gettysburg office. It is divided into two subseries--a subject file and an alphabetical file. The subject subseries contains such categories as appointments, autographs, endorsements, gifts, invitations, memberships, messages, politics, publications, statements, and trips. This subseries is comprised of a little over thirty-one boxes, and it is arranged in alphabetical order by name of subject category. Invitations generated the greatest volume of correspondence, followed by appointments, gifts, and messages. The alphabetical subseries consists of nearly thirty-nine boxes of materials arranged in alphabetical order by names of individuals and organizations. Though primarily a correspondence file, it also contains other types of documents, including speeches, published materials, lists, statements, minutes of meetings, and transcripts of interviews. This series reveals that the volume of Eisenhower’s correspondence continued to grow. It placed an increasing burden on his staff, who answered most inquiries, and on friends such as Bryce Harlow, who often drafted letters for Eisenhower on politically sensitive subjects, and on Dwight Eisenhower himself, who continued to edit correspondence with friends and acquaintances. The increased strain on Eisenhower and his staff is revealed in the many letters which turned down requests for appointments, autographs, speeches, endorsements, and special messages from the former president. The bulk of this series consists of routine correspondence and related materials. However, there are numerous letters and memoranda which discuss national and international events, issues, and personalities. The space program, taxes, the New Frontier, People to People, the Test Ban Treaty, the assassination of President Kennedy, NATO, the U.S.

    Civil rights leader of 1960s sets Valley stop Page 1 of 2 Civil rights leader of 1960s sets Valley stop By Peter H. Milliken Saturday, October 1, 2011 By Peter H. Milliken [email protected] YOUNGSTOWN A top national leader in the 1960s civil-rights movement will address city high-school students this month. U.S. Rep. John Lewis, D-5th, of Atlanta, will speak to an assembly of students at 10 a.m. Oct. 18 at East High School. The assembly will be for students from East, Chaney and the Youngstown Early College High schools, and it will not be open to the public. Lewis will discuss his experiences in the civil rights movement and his commitment to nonviolence. Later that day, the 71-year-old congressman will speak at a Cleveland Legal Aid Society banquet. Lewis is coming to Youngstown at the invitation of Mahoning Valley Sojourn to the Past, an organization that sponsors a 10-day annual trip for Youngstown city high school students to sites of key 1960s civil-rights marches in Southern states and to meet movement leaders, such as Lewis. Penny Wells, director of Sojourn, announced Lewis’ appearance at Thursday’s meeting of the Mahoning County commissioners. Lewis, who was recognized as one of the nation’s “Big Six” civil rights leaders, was chairman of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee from 1963 to 1966. Lewis was a planner and the youngest speaker at the August 1963 Washington, D.C., rally, where the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his historic “I Have a Dream” speech.

  • John Lewis, "Speech at the March on Washington" (28 August 1963)
    Voices of Democracy 5 (2010): 18‐36 Pauley 18 JOHN LEWIS, "SPEECH AT THE MARCH ON WASHINGTON" (28 AUGUST 1963) Garth E. Pauley Calvin College Abstract: John Lewis delivered a fiery speech at the March on Washington that attracted nearly as much attention as Martin Luther King, Jr.'s famous "I Have a Dream" oration. Although he had been forced to "tone down" his speech, Lewis still delivered a rousing message that effectively captured the militant spirit among many civil rights workers in the summer of 1963. Key Words: John Lewis; March on Washington; civil rights movement; Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. On August 28, 1963, more than 250,000 people participated in the largest and most remembered civil rights demonstration in the United States‐‐the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. The speeches delivered by representatives of the ten civil rights, religious, and labor organizations that sponsored the March were the focal point of the event, with Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous "I Have a Dream" oration becoming one of the most celebrated speeches in American history, pushing the others to the margins of our historical memory. While civil rights leader John Lewis's fiery address at the March did not approach King's in terms of eloquence, his speech is notable for its militancy, attracting nearly as much attention in its time. Even though Lewis was forced by other speakers at the March to "tone down" his rhetoric, he still delivered a powerful indictment of racial injustice and the politicians' failure to address the nation's chronic civil rights problems.
