      [0204] Association of Citizens' Councils of Mississippi records, 1961-1967 and undated

      Location: David M. Rubenstein Rare Book & Manuscript Library, Duke University, Box 90185, 103 Perkins Library, Durham, North Carolina 27708

      Description: The first Citizens' Council (also known as the White Citizens' Council) was formed in Indianola, Mississippi, following the United States Supreme Court's 1954 Brown v. Board of Education ruling, which struck down segregation in public schools. White businessmen, planters, and professionals organized the group to prevent the court's ruling from taking hold in Mississippi. Other Citizens' Council chapters were formed around the state, and within three months a statewide body, the Association of Citizens' Councils of Mississippi, began in Winona, Mississippi. By 1956, the group claimed eighty thousand members in Mississippi. It was particularly active in the Delta region and also had a powerful Jackson chapter, led by William J. Simmons (1916-2007). A national group, the Citizens' Council of America, was formed by 1956. The Citizens' Council received its revenue from membership dues and grants from the publicly-funded Mississippi State Sovereignty Commission, an agency that promoted segregation and investigated the activities of civil rights groups. The Citizens' Council officially eschewed violence as a strategy, although many Council members privately condoned the violent tactics used by the Ku Klux Klan. The Council was active for more than a decade, but began to lose some of its influence by the late-1960s. Collection comprises Association of Citizen's Councils' position statements, directives, articles, and handbills on the subjects of voting rights, school integration, civil rights protests, infiltration of the Southern Civil Rights movement by Communists, and segregation. Reprinted newspaper articles from newspapers across the country comprise the majority of the material. There are also requests for funding and assistance in influencing politicians. There are handbills with quotations, position statement, cartoons, and editorial photographs. Some of the material is from the national Citizens' Council, and some is printed by Lawrence Printing Company of Greenwood, Miss.
