Abstract:
Records of the Fifth Avenue Vietnam Peace Parade Committee, a broad-based coalition which represented the majority of the Vietnam War opposition in New York City. Included are steering committee minutes, correspondence, press releases, leaflets, and logistical material on various national and local demonstrations that the committee organized and supported. Many of the files are quite fragmentary, with the most complete documentation relating to committee activities in 1966 and 1967. Prominent correspondents include Kipp Dawson, Frank Emspak, Fred Halstead, Linda Morse, and Ron Wolin. There is also a copy of remarks by Norman Mailer at an August 6, 1966, demonstration.
