![Southern Conference for Human Welfare](images/fileicons/nodigital.png)
Call Number: KP 430Format: 1/4 7 1/2 ipsProgram: Southern Conference for Human WelfareCollection: Voices from the South
Interviews with two leading women in the early southern civil rights movement, on a 1938 conference, in Birmingham Alabama that is considered one of the sparks that led to the growth of the civil rights movement. From 1938 to 1948, the Birmingham-based Southern Conference for Human Welfare (SCHW) tried to bring long-overdue New Deal-inspired reforms to the South. In particular, the organization was committed to improving social justice and civil rights and instituting electoral reform in the region by repealing the poll tax. Perhaps the most noteworthy of a number of organizations that grew out of the movement for regional reform in the 1930s, the SCHW folded because of funding problems and charges of harboring Communist sympathies, but it laid the groundwork for future civil rights activism.
