| Abstract: | The Greater Cleveland Conference on Religion and Race was an interfaith organization in Cleveland, Ohio, with the goal of promoting equality of opportunities and rights without regard to race, color, religion, or national origin. The conference emerged from a meeting of representatives of three faiths in Chicago, Illinois, in January 1963. The delegates present were charged to go back to their communities and create local organizations to address racial issues through a religious lens. The collection consists of correspondence, minutes, agendas, press releases, and speech texts. | ||
