- Summary
- The Marilyn Clement papers, 1967-2005, consist primarily of printed material, which document her activities as an activist with the organizations where she was either employed or worked as a volunteer. The collection is arranged chronologically and then by organization. Writings by Clement are filed throughout the collection. Included among the printed materials are an interview given by Clement and essays about the first women's delegation of U.S. civilians that traveled in Vietnam after the war (Clement was a member of the delegation), 1977-1978, and campaign items from Jesse Jackson's bid for the United States presidency in 1988. Also represented is the "National Conference in Support of the African National Congress and other Democratic Forces for a New South Africa," held at the Riverside Church in New York City, and her work as a fund raising consultant for Americans for Aristide. Of note are the items relating to the Health Care Now campaign launched (as "Healthcare-We Gotta Have It") in 1992 and revived in 2004. Other materials are from Clement's involvement in various campaigns during her tenure at the United Methodist Women's Division.
