Description An account of the resource This article discusses how congressman Brooks Hays said that Christians had “grown soft” during this time. He claimed that he was not an advocate for mass integration, but that he was against discrimination. He expressed that Christians must draw on their resources and continue to believe in the rule of the law when it came to integration. Hays had just lost his first election in 25 years, a bid for congressman in Arkansas, because he was labeled as too moderate on the issue of integration. He was also president of the Southern Baptist Convention, and stated while he did not support the tactics of the NAACP, he would not "deny them their rights."

It explains how different governments are divesting in South African companies following the Sullivan Principles, a set of guidelines a company must follow regarding diversity and protesting the apartheid state in South Africa, a government system founded on racial segregation. President Heilman had revealed that the University does have investments in South Africa, but was unsure of their extent, and the Board of Trustees had appointed a committee chaired by Stanley F. Pauley to investigate the university's portfolio and consider divestment. The university had had a similar committee a few years prior. The university's first black tenured professor, Dr. Lorenzo Simpson, is quoted: "Selective divestment (according to the Sullivan Principles) is a way of prematurely diffusing outrage...I'm not criticizing the Sullivan principles, I'm saying that they don't go far enough."

Pinchbeck who passed the letter to Modlin. Modlin wrote to Weaver that "[u]nder the regulations of the University of Richmond Negroes are not admitted for study in any of the six divisions of the University and, therefore, the answer is negative to the five questions presented in [her] letter." This policy changed in 1964—13 years later—when the university began to admit black students to night classes at University College.

Wallis wrote this report to convey some areas of improvement for the Richmond Public Library system. He began by giving a brief history of the library in America and then shared how Richmond was behind the average per capita income. Wallis was unaware of any other city with Richmond's size that only had two library branches and didn't have a bookmobile. Therefore, he asked for "four good branches and two bookmobiles." These bookmobiles could travel in the community, reach more people, and the cost would be comparatively less than a building. Wallis clarified that these vehicles should not be seen as replacements for actual library buildings. There would be two stations for the East End; one of which served black people and was used fairly well. The writer believed that an irreplaceable tenet of the public library was that "every man has the right to find out, to read, study, learn and understand for himself."

Description An account of the resource On September 10, 1963, Executive Director of the University of Richmond Young Democratic Club, Dabney Lee, wrote the Mayor of Farmville, Virginia, William Watkins, on behalf of a black minister, Rev. L. F. Griffin, in Farmville. Lee began the letter by expressing the importance of having an increase in both the quantity and quality of public accommodations in Farmville. He believed that Farmville officials should already know that businesses shouldn't be able to discriminate, and should treat all customers equally, regardless of race. Lee then made a list of requests to the administration of the Mayor: remove discriminatory practices in hiring, "the immediate hiring of colored policemen," end segregation, conduct a study to facilitate better housing for all citizens, and to construct "bi-racial committees...to make progress towards a truly American community." The University of Richmond Secretary-Treasurer, Charles Wheeler III, notified President Modlin of this letter on October 4, 1963. Wheeler had previously had a conversation with Dabney Lee, and Lee claimed that the letter was his idea and the Young Democratic Club did not approve the letter, "but he was sure that was the feeling of the Club."

The students adopted these measures because they felt the racist ideology often harboured in churches is incompatible with the teachings of the Bible. The resolution called for racial inclusivity in the church and on college campuses affiliated with the Southern Baptist church, and it additionally called for protection for church leadership, that they may voice their opinion without fear of economic consequence.
