Negro Archbishop Blasts NAACP Aims / It's Time To Speak, Kingstree Negro Minister Says
Los Angeles: Keep America Committee, [1956]. A pro-segregation flyer compiled by the Keep America Committee, an anti-Semitic, nationalist organization primarily run by Ms. Helen W. Courtois in Los Angeles. The recto reprints an article that originally appeared in “The County Record” in Williamsburg Co., SC, by Black minister, Rev. Webster McClary, in which he criticizes the NAACP for stirring up race hatred and suggests, “What this country needs is more Christian leaders on both sides who will teach their people to pray more and work toward friendship and peace and prosperity instead of mixing breeds against God's plan.” The bottom of the verso reprints demands listed in the 1928 issue of “The Daily Worker” to demonstrate the Communist involvement in racial agitation. The verso reprints a letter by the well-known anti-Semitic, pro-segregation, Black minister, Archbishop C. C. Addison, to McClary commending him on his anti-NAACP stance and introducing him to his Black nationalist organization, the African Stock Exchange Association Development Corporation. Addison claims that Harlem is run by Jews, that Southern Blacks are freer, and that “Many of us hate integration, mongrelization and everything that goes with it worse than we hate a rattle snake, for it carries more deadly poison.”
