Abstract:

Papers of student activists Todd Gitlin and Nanci Hollander including correspondence and subject files relating to his leadership of student peace and protest groups at Harvard and her participation in similar groups at the University of Michigan. Material on his presidency of SDS may be found in the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) records, though this collection does include a draft and related correspondence and papers for Uptown: Poor Whites in Chicago (1970), which was based on their involvement with SDS's Jobs or Income Now project (JOIN). Much of the correspondence concerns TOCSIN, a disarmament organization at Harvard, its involvement with Turn Toward Peace, the Washington Action demonstration, and the senatorial campaign of H. Stuart Hughes in 1962. Prominent correspondents include Cyrus Eaton, Sanford Gottlieb, Jerome Grossman, Hubert H. Humphrey, Jacob K. Javits, Robert Kastenmeier, David Riesman, C. P. Snow, U Thant, and James A. Wechsler.
