Title: National Guardian. July 16, 1966. Vol. 18, No. 41
Description: New York, Weekly Guardian Associates, 1966. Tabloid. Side folding tabloid newspaper. 8 pp. Black and white photos throughout. Single issue of this long running, left leaning newspaper. Originally established in 1948 to support the Progressive Party candidate for president, the focused on a variety of issues from a left wing, liberal viewpoint. While originally thought to be associated with the Communist Party of the USA, it was not, although held sympathetic views. Dissension within the paper in 1970 led to a splinter paper being formed. It was noted for its coverage of the Civil Rights movement, as well as for asserting the Rosenbergs were innocent of espionage charges. This issue features several lengthy pieces on the concept of Black Power as originally espoused by Stokely Carmichael (Kwame Ture) and CORE (Congress on Racial Equality). Originally mentioned by Ture at the Meredith March earlier in July, the term "Black Power," apparently caused an uproar in both white and Black communities. One article describes the denunciation of the term by the NAACP as racist, while also mentioning Dr. Martin Luther King and his perspective as head of the SCLC. Another article cites the concept as defined by CORE, with yet another article seeking other opinions on just what "Black Power," meant. GOOD condition. Horizontal fold crease present. Moderate toning. A few tears along the fold edges. Paper somewhat brittle. Minor wrinkling. Several sentences in the Black Power articles underlined in ink, along with some bracketing. Address label on the lower rear cover. Good .
