James Farmer speaks about Civil Rights at Bucknell

Description

Several articles from the Bucknellian in 1965 both announce and recount civil rights leader James Farmer's speech at Bucknell. A picture of him is also included. Farmer (1920-1999) was the National Director of the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) and well-known Freedom Rider. On campus, he spoke about nonviolence and the urgency of riots versus the responsibility of conversation and dedication to change.
