[0562] Citizens' Council Forum Films Collection 1955-1966, MP 1986.01 [films]
Location: Archives and Records Services Division, William F. Winter Archives and History Building, The Mississippi Department of Archives and History, 200 North Street, Jackson, MS 39201
Description: The first Citizens' Council was formed in 1954 in Indianola, Mississippi, to resist integration. By March 1955, 167 Citizens' Councils were reported in Mississippi; these were loosely affiliated into a state organization. In 1955, the state organization began producing fifteen-minute weekly films under the name Citizens' Council Forum Films. These films consisted of interviews by producer Dick Morphew with leading American and foreign conservatives and were shown on local television stations throughout the country. The discussions centered on race, Communism, the Supreme Court, religion, and integration. The programs were created to influence public opinion on integration and Communism. Some of the films in this collection were not produced by the Citizens' Council Forum Films, but activities of similar groups. Contained in the collection are 132 reels of film, approximately 90,000 feet. Names include Representative Bruce Alger, Citizens Council, Communism, Representative James Davis, Representative William Jennings Bryan Dorn, Senator James O. Eastland, Dr. Medford Evans, Dr. Robert Gayre, Dr. W. C. George, Senator Barry Goldwater, Mr. Edward Hunter, Reverend T. Robert Ingram, August E. Johansen, Dr. Robert Kuttner, Myers G. Lowman, Representative Noah M. Mason, Carleton Putnam, John C. Satterfield, Senator John C. Stennis, Senator Herman Talmadge, Senator Strom
