19675899Chicago and New Orleans: September 1967. 21 leaves illustrated with ninety-nine photographs mostly black-and-white but some in color. All ninety-nine images with a printed caption in the margin reading "Sep 67."Square folio. Contemporary red leatherette stamped in gilt on front cover string tied. Minor wear some images loose. Very good. An important photographic record of a notable moment in the interplay between the Civil Rights Movement the Black Power Movement and 1960s white liberalism documenting the 1967 National Conference on New Politics NCNP in Chicago. Simon Hall in his 2003 article in Journal of American Studies entitled "On the Trail of the Panther: Black Power and the 1967 Convention of the National Conference for New Politics" described the event as "one of the most ambitious attempts to forge a broad political alliance of antiwar organizations New Left insurgents and the radical wing of the Civil Rights Movement in 1960s America." The album is captioned on the inside front cover: "The National Conference on New Politics Aug. 31 - Sept. 4 1967 Palmer House Chicago." Seventy-five images document the conference many captioned on the album leaves identifying speakers attendees and settings or providing commentary. Chief among the delegates to the conference was Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. who delivered the keynote address on the first night. The title of the speech was "The Three Evils of Society" which King defined as â€œthe sickness of racism excessive materialism and militarism.â€ The present album includes five candid shots of King from that night. These include four shots of King at the microphones during his keynote address three with captions that read "There are no communists at this conference" "I am not a member of 60 communist fronts" and "We do not believe in violence but rather civil disobedience on a vaster scale than ever before" respectively. The fourth photograph of King shows him sitting with Ralph Abernathy and Michael Wood this image captioned "Center: Michael Wood of the Nat'l Student Assn who blew the whistle on the CIA." In addition to the photographs of Dr. King the album includes dozens of candid shots of conference participants that reads like a who's-who of civil rights and Black Power activists of the moment including members of SCLC SNCC CORE and the Black Panthers. These portraits memorialize the conference participation of Julian Bond Dick Gregory Ralph Abernathy one of which catches him sleeping during King's speech and is humorously captioned "The alert audience of ML King" Hunter Pitts "Jack" O'Dell Floyd McKissick James Foreman Lois Allen Vietnam War protester Private Ronald Lockman and a woman from the "Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party" who appears to be Victoria Jackson Gray Adams. The album also pictures white members of the New Left or sympathetic supporters of the civil rights movement such as Dr. Benjamin Spock Dr. Donna Allen Women's Strike for Peace Simon Casady influential California Democrat William Pepper Executive Secretary of NCNP Clark Kissinger National Secretary of the Students for a Democratic Society and Robert Scheer publisher of the radical Ramparts magazine. The album also includes some shots of other unnamed notables and additional attendees views from the main conference floor a display of posters featuring "Heroes of the National Liberation Movement" such as Che Guevara Malcolm X and Stokely Carmichael and book displays by vendors such as the Progressive Labor Party Marxist publisher Lou Diskin CADRE Chicago Area Draft Resistors and the Student Mobilization Committee. An additional twenty-four color images picture H. Rap Brown Jamil Abdulla al-Amin and various scenes in New Orleans during Brown's trial for weapons charges in September 1967. Brown was a fiery activist who was that time serving as the fifth chairman of SNCC a post he held from May 1967 to June 1968. Incongruously Brown was a controversial head of SNCC for his constant calls for violent political action and even served a dual role as the head of SNCC and as Minister of Justice for the Black Panther Party in 1968. The first page of images featuring Brown in the present album is captioned: "Rap Brown in New Orleans. Arraigned on carrying a weapon in interstate while under criminal indictment in Maryland for inciting to riot & arson" referring to the riot in Cambridge Maryland earlier that summer. Seventeen of these images show Brown and his lawyers talking to reporters outside the courthouse then continuing to do so as Brown walks down the street and gets into a car. Seven of the images show various street scenes around New Orleans. Brown's trial was going on at the same time as the National Conference in Chicago. As such a handful of the latter images show James Foreman of SNCC who according to the manuscript caption "spoke for H. Rap Brown" at the conference. At the time Foreman was the International Affairs Director for SNCC. The conference was an odd combination of white liberals Civil Rights legends and Black Power advocates which according to a contemporary source "brought black militants and much of the white left into occasional dialogue and frequent chaos." A retrospective "This Week in History" piece in the Chicago Sun Times in 2021 set the scene of the conference and detailed Dr. King's keynote speech: "A haven for liberal politicians and supporters the National Conference for New Politics took place over Labor Day weekend in 1967. The Chicago Sun-Times extensively covered the conference where politicos activists and anti-war advocates mixed and mingled to excite their base and prepare for the upcoming election season. The highlight of the convention came on Aug. 31 when Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. took to the stage to deliver the keynote address to 4000 people at the Chicago Coliseum. 'The promise of a Great Society has been shipwrecked off the coast of Asia on the dreadful pinnacle of Vietnam' he told conference-goers. The war he said 'has torn up the Geneva agreement seriously impaired the United Nations exacerbated the hatreds between continents and worse still between races: it has frustrated our development at home.If the will of the people continues to be unheeded all men of good will must create a situation in which the 1967-68 elections are made a referendum on the war' he said. 'The American people must have an opportunity to vote into oblivion those who cannot detach themselves from militarism.' Kingâ€™s speech touched on more than the Vietnam War. He called for a national employment agency noting that capitalism 'was built on the exploitation and suffering of Black slaves and continues to thrive on the exploitation of the poor -- both Black and white -- both here and abroad.' The activist referred to racism as 'that corrosive evil that will bring down the curtain on Western civilization.' King received a standing ovation after his speech. September unknown

Annotated Vernacular Photograph Album Documenting the Personal and Academic Life of a Young Japanese American Woman and Her Family in Japan and California

19474328Various locations mostly Japan but also California and Hawaii 1947. Good. 24 leaves illustrated with 206 mounted black-and-white or sepia-toned photographs of varying sizes most with manuscript captions in Japanese. Quarto. Contemporary maroon photograph album with floral design and "Photo Album" printed on front cover. Spine chipped both boards and spine detached minor rubbing to boards. Photographs generall well preserved. A well-annotated vernacular photograph album documenting the life schooling and early work career of a young woman in the Hamamoto family the only daughter and here referred to simply as "Hamomoto-san" along with significant images of her family in California in the 1930s. Hamamoto's family seem to have been early immigrants to the Los Angeles area particularly Pacoima where they ran a meat market and grocery store in 1934. Seven photographs in a two-page spread show the Hamomotos in Pacoima including four of their store and three of the Hamomotos posed at Pacoima Elementary School; one of the latter images shows the compiler posed with three other students of different ethnicities at the school. The present album includes numerous photos of Hamomoto along with portratis of her parents brothers various friends and so forth. Hamamoto's family apparently relocated back to Japan in the mid-1930s stopping in Hawaii along the way where a photo of the family is captioned "On the way back to Japan." She evidently stayed in Japan thereafter likely so that she could attend school in Hiroshima. Once Hamamoto resettled in Hiroshima she enrolled in a Buddhist-affiliated private high school for girls Shintoku Higher School for Girls where she graduated in 1942. Much of the latter half of the present album contains school class photos groups shots of students engaging in various ceremonies and school projects individual portraits of her classmates with many identified and other scenes at school and at reunions afterwards. Hamomoto's school was later destroyed in the atomic bombing of Hiroshima in 1945 killing almost 400 students and teachers. The present album also documents at least one other back-and-forth move between the United States and Japan within the Hamomoto family. In 1940 the compiler's brother Hiroshi went to the U.S. and returned in 1941 where he entered a major institute focusing on broadcast technology. Following high school Hamomoto worked for Mitsui Bussan for a while; one image here is captioned "During the time I worked at Mitsui & Co. 1944. Taken on the roof." Mitsui Bussan is still a major trading company in Japan that deals in commodities. Hamomoto may have also worked for American authorities during the Occupation of Japan following World War II evidenced by a couple of images here showing her posed outside an R.T.O. office in 1947. The American military established the Railroad Transportation Office in occupied Japan in order to manage military and personnel travel on the Japanese railway system; these offices were set up at several major Japanese train stations. This album is a nice example of a primary source reflecting the fluid interplay within the Japanese and Japanese-American communities with regard to life in Japan versus the United States before World War II. There were often tensions within Japanese and Japanese-American families related to which country provided better opportunities for their families especially the younger generations. The present album is one example when the family apparently decided against life in America and returned to the mother country specifically to Hiroshima. The compiler of the album survived the war however and may have even worked with American occupiers likely due to some facility with the English language first learned long before during childhood in California. unknown
