The Commission on Interracial Cooperation grew out of the concern over racial tension and riots which followed after the return of black American servicemen from World War I. It was formed in 1919 as a moderate coalition of blacks and whites, with the goals of promoting better race relations through public awareness and educational efforts. The Association of Southern Women for the Prevention of Lynching was an offshoot of the CIC, and merged back into it in 1942. The papers of the ASWPL are also available in the Microform Reading Room, as are the papers of the Southern Regional Council, into which the CIC merged in 1944. The CIC collection consists of correspondence, minutes of meetings, pamphlets and reports, and educational material published by the CIC.

Among the persons involved in the CIC were Will Alexander and various YMCA figures; Robert Moton (Tuskegee); John Hope (Morehouse College); Jessie Daniel Ames; Mary McLeod Bethune; and Charlotte Hawkins Brown.

Some of the research sponsored by the CIC included studies and surveys of black education and housing conditions, investigations of the Ku Klux Klan, lynching, and police brutality; the CIC also provided legal aid to the defendants in the Scottsboro case.

LC Call Number: Microfilm 97/247

The General Correspondence files contain the vast majority of documentation created by the Foreign Office as well as documentation from other government departments forwarded to the Foreign Office. This collection contains copies only of material from the Political class of the General Correspondence files. These documents contain information needed by the British government to conduct diplomatic relations with a foreign country.
During the period covered by this collection Palestine and Transjordan were being administered by Great Britain under a League of Nations mandate and thus there was no diplomatic relations with these countries. The documents gathered here record how the mandate policies for Palestine and Transjordan affected British relations with other countries, most specifically the Arab Nations, the United States, and to a lesser extent, the European nations. The documents also reveal how Britain's foreign policy with respect to other nations affected its administration of the Mandate. In addition to reports from British ambassadors and from other government officials, the collection includes correspondence relating to Palestine and Transjordan forward to the Foreign Office by the Colonial Office, War Office, Prime Minister's Office, and other government departments. These declassified political papers will greatly aid the scholar in an understanding of the modern history of the Middle East, the development of the Israeli state, and post-war international politics.
