MISCELLANEOUS PAPERS, #517-68, 1963
Photocopies of a journal kept by Richard N. L. (Pete) Andrews while working on Aaron Henry's Mississippi gubernatorial campaign (1963). Entries record the activities of Andrews, a student at Yale, and others as they staged a "mock voter registration" in Mississippi to assess the number of potential African-American voters who were prohibited by the state's restrictive voter registration practices from casting ballots.
