In den WarenkorbWraps. Zustand: Good. No place (Madison, WI): 1968. Newsletter, stapled at the upper left, 8 ? 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.
