Article "Mr. Kester Addresses Sociology Class on Important Subject, 'Race Relations'"

Howard Kester from the Federation of Reconciliation, a religious nonviolent organization, addressed Rolvix Harlan's sociology class on race relations. In the talk, Kester advocated for white students to shift their perspectives on view Black people. Kester encouraged white people to support Black educational institutions and churches and to form a brotherhood.

Kester investigated lynchings for the NAACP and ACLU, was involved in the Young Men's Christian Association, and the Southern Tenant Farmer's Union.
