The Heights Citizens for Human Rights Records, 1964-1972 and undated, consist of correspondence, meeting announcements and minutes, policy statements and reports, newsletters, pamphlets, and newspaper clippings.
This collection will be useful to researchers studying the history of Cleveland Heights and University Heights, Ohio, and issues of race, integration, and education there in the 1960s and 1970s. The collection relates, in large part, or organization programs dealing with racial equality in education, housing, and employment, with drug abuse problems in the Cleveland Heights-University Heights area, and with local government and the library. This collection is of special importance to scholars interested in studying a suburban community's response to racial and social integration.
