199082775Montgomery Alabama: The S.S. Seay Sr. Educational Foundation 1990. Stated First Edition. Octavo. 23.5cm. Publisher's white rexine titled in gilt to spine and front board. Dustjacket. xii; 297pp 1pp Biographical information to rear. Bumping to corners and spine ends some soiling of the white boards here and there in a scuffed and rubbed dustjacket with some creasing to edges and some areas of loss most notably the upper right corner of the front panel and a small triangle of loss to the rear panel. The printing process used for the dustjacket seems to have resulted in a very easily scuffed and rubbed end result with the majority of copies of this title showing signs of this. Internally clean with a lengthy gift inscription to the pastedown from Nathaniel and Karen Jackson of Montgomery Alabama along with a list of contact numbers for members of the Jackson family. A very good copy in a dustjacket that shows wear without surrendering durability. <br /> <br /> The Reverend Seay was a prolific activist for civil rights in Alabama beginning with his attempts in 1949 to support a young African-American woman in her case against two Alabama police officers whom she accused of rape. A few years later Seay was indicted along with 88 other activist protestors for his involvement in the Alabama Bus Boycott and in 1960 he was once again indicted for his support of the Committee to Defend Martin Luther King and the Struggle for Freedom in The South and their part in the March 1960 New York Times full page advertisement entitled "Heed Their Rising Voices.

1968022387No Place: Teachers for Peaceful Alternatives Publisher 1968. Wraps. Good. No place Madison WI: 1968. Newsletter stapled at the upper left 8 ½ by 11 inches. 8 leaves printed on single sides only. A newsletter issued by the organization Teachers for Peaceful Alternatives. Nothing could be found in our online searches although AI offered up some interesting sounding BS about nothing related to the inquiries. That said the newsletter appears to be written by teachers and aimed at those teaching high school and below. Articles in other issues address a variety of issues facing teachers in the classroom especially considering the specter of the Vietnam War. Of note this issue is entirely devoted to the printing of a speech by Reverend John Fry printed as Frye here of the First Presbyterian Church in Chicago "Civil Agony in America." This speech discusses his work with the Blackstone Rangers in Chicago a group that was originally considered a street gang of mostly Black youth but that evolved into an organization focusing on civil rights. Fry and his church worked at creating a partnership of sorts with the Rangers brokering a peace with another gang and working on reducing violence while achieving civil rights for the Black community in America. The Chicago community at large and the police were against these efforts. At one point police "confiscated" a stash of weapons held in a church safe a stash that was previously gathered voluntarily from Blackston Ranger members under the supervision of the church and police. As Fry later noted the Chicago police did not like his work with the Rangers because it undermined their efforts to eliminate them through police violence and arrests. GOOD condition. Moderate uneven toning some foxing and minor soiling. Minor wrinkling. Teachers for Peaceful Alternatives, Publisher unknown
