During the recent racial disturbance in
Atianta, Georgia, residents of the Vine City community
£ Atlanta distributed a petition protesting tie activities
oF the Student Nonviosent Coordinating Committee in the
Yine City area, The petition stated in part: “We, the . ;
residents of the Vine City community are shocked and , oo
completely deplore the events that have taken place in. _
our city this week. We have every reason to believe
thet the Student Nonviclent Coordinatirg Committee (SNCC)
ereated the incident to promote its doctrine of racial .
hatred and separation, better known as ‘Black Power." |.
Ye deplore such a doctrine as being opposed to true
Americanism and opposed to our real ambitions of being
a total part of the Atlanta community. Because we feel
so strongly that the purposes of SNCC are not for the
growth and development of our community, we forthwith
. eall for them to cease their operation in this’ area.
More specifically, we.call.for the closing of .their -
Vine City headquarters, the distribution of hate literature
to be discontinued, and their Staff workers to withdraw a
‘completely from the area.” SO
