Summary
  • At the 43rd Anniversary of the NAACP held in Oklahoma City, 1952, Senator Hubert Humphrey speaks about the upcoming Democratic National Convention and the legislative issues in Washington, D.C. He speaks out against complacency and Communism and encourages the fight in the revolution for human equality and a representative government.
  • Walter White speaks next on the progress the NAACP and President Truman have made in civil rights. He speaks out against lynching, mobism and terrorist tactics and expresses disfavor of General Eisenhower and his political platform and the Fair Employment Practices Commission. White stresses the importance of voting on the state and local levels in order to make changes in housing, education and employment.
  • Clifford P. Case, Congressman from New Jersey speaks about the lag in social attitudes compared with the pace of events of legislation which creates more violence, terrorism and tragic matters. He presents the Spingarn Medal for a Negro American of distinguished achievement to Mrs. Rosa D. Moore, in honor of her deceased son, Harry T. Moore. Mrs. Moore speaks briefly.
  • Dr. Robert C. Weaver who has served as Advisor of Negro Affairs in the Department of the Interior pays a tribute to Harry T. Moore and speaks on the problem of shelter and housing. He talks about slum clearance, displacement, discrimination in housing, urban redevelopment and the FHA's failures in the free-housing market. Weaver states how Federal housing policies help determine the racial patterns of the cities of tomorrow and advises action now to reverse the continuation of residential segregation by publicly supported and government directed housing agencies.
