Overview and metadata sections

American civil liberties union

The ACLU is the preeminent civil liberties organization in the United States. The ACLU describes itself as "our nation's guardian of liberty, working daily in courts, legislatures and communities to defend and preserve the individual rights and liberties that the Constitution and laws of the United States guarantee everyone in this country." Since its inception in 1920, the ACLU has played a part in nearly every significant American social or political issue in the 20th century. This includes important work in the areas of civil rights, children and women's rights, freedom of speech (and all First Amendment questions), and due process, among many others.

For a more detailed history of the ACLU, please see the history in the finding aid for the processed portion of the ACLU Records.

These Records document the activities of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) in protecting individual rights between 1947 and 1995. The collection contains correspondence, clippings, court documents, memoranda, printed matter, minutes, reports, briefs, legal files, exhibit materials, and audio-visual materials. Also included are materials from ACLU affiliate organizations, the Lawyers Constitutional Defense Committee and national office legal department records (1945-1960).

Due to the exceptionally large volume within the ACLU Records, succinct series and subseries descriptions have been written, providing a basic outline of the records available. The researcher should always consult the folder list to ascertain if the records contain a topic of interest since not all subjects are mentioned in these brief descriptions.

The researcher should also be aware that many topics may be covered in more than one series or subseries. For instance, materials concerning freedom of the press are located in both the Mass Communications and Censorship subseries. Often the series descriptions note similar materials found in other parts of this collection. Due to limitations in processing time, not every file is in exact chronological or alphabetical order.

Scope and Contents

The Project on Amnesty operated from 1972-1975, and these files (10.50 linear feet) document amnesty and clemency issues for draft evaders, military deserters, and veterans holding other-than- honorable discharges. The Project on Amnesty was headed by Henry Schwarzschild. In the fall of 1974, the American Civil Liberties Union merged the Military Rights Project headed by David F. Addlestone into the Amnesty Project. The Clemency Litigation Project under litigation director Edwin J. Oppenheimer, also came under the umbrella of the Amnesty Project; it focused on litigation for war resisters. The staff of the Project on Amnesty and the Military Rights Project (MRP) both worked for the Clemency program on the "exclusion" of individuals who had relinquished their American citizenship.

When it became clear that the Project on Amnesty would not continue beyond the end of 1975, David Addlestone and Susan Newman, a staff attorney, sought new funding for the MRP. They were awarded a grant from The Carnegie Corporation of New York, to establish the National Military Discharge Upgrading Project in affiliation with Georgetown University Law School. The new project began operating on July 1, 1975.

The files are grouped under four headings: administrative, subject files, clemency litigation division, and project director's records, each arranged alphabetically within each heading. The materials grouped under the administrative files heading record the history of the Project itself and the ACLU's policy on amnesty. The records contain correspondence, background material, statistics on the draft and the Vietnam War, and documents on President Ford's establishment of a Presidential Clemency Board. There is substantive material covering "Separation Program Numbers (SPNs)," a code the Army used to denote reasons why an individual was discharged. The ACLU ran a series of advertisements offering to inform veterans what the SPNs on their discharge papers meant.

The project subject files which contain the bulk of the material, include Henry Schwarzschild's correspondence with the staff of other amnesty organizations and the Selective Service System, attorneys in the Departments of Defense and Justice, and members of United States Congress. There are a few historical papers which cover amnesty in American history prior to the Vietnam War era, public statements on amnesty, and congressional testimony. The files on other amnesty organizations cover many groups.

The files of the Clemency Litigation Division include correspondence, project reports, and legal dockets. The Division handled a variety of military, draft, immigration, and Reconciliation Service cases.

The Project Director's files are subdivided into two sections: project files and project subject files. The materials span from 1964 to 1979 and includes material which pre-dates and post- dates the existence of the project. The project files contain correspondence with officials of other amnesty organizations such as the Center for Social Action, National Council of Churches, and the Vietnam Veterans Against the War. Included is correspondence with the Selective Service System regarding statistical summaries of the draft population. Correspondence with the Presidential Clemency Board and its chairman Charles E. Goodell and General Counsel Lawrence Baskir includes summaries of pending clemency cases; also found are numerous internal memoranda critical of the Presidential Clemency Program.

Also included is material pertaining to a minority report issued by a few members of the Clemency Board, led by Gen. Lewis Walt. There are also letters to and from Congressmen, including information pertaining to a list compiled by Senator Edward Kennedy of men under indictment for draft evasion.

There are several restricted files which contain correspondence with and information about clemency program applicants and discharge upgrading applicants seeking the assistance of the ACLU. Also restricted are a "contributions" file which contains membership and donor information and a file containing billing information.

The project subject files contain broad files on "conscientious objection" and "conscription" filled with press releases, minutes, memoranda, miscellaneous legal documents, newsletters, and clippings consisting chiefly of background information from the late 1960s. Other major subject files include a file on Amnesty legislation containing draft and final bills from the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives, along with correspondence regarding those bills; a file on the implementation of President Ford's Clemency Program consisting of rules and regulations and presidential statements and proclamations; and a file of general background information consisting of various drafts of policies, reports, articles, and statements.

There are also additional materials in Series 5, Printed Materials, which contains both ACLU and non-ACLU press releases, manuals, reports, pamphlets, and statements, as well as Congressional hearing transcripts and reports, newsletters and pamphlets of other Amnesty organizations, law journal articles, and the Presidential Clemency Board Report to the President (1975). They can be located under "Military Rights."

Scope and Contents

Founded in the summer of 1964 to assist the civil rights movement, the Lawyers Constitutional Defense Committee (LCDC) solicited lawyers to provide volunteer legal representation for worthy or significant cases. Typically, a volunteer lawyer would travel to a small town in the South and spend one month working on cases in coordination with one of the LCDC's regional offices. While these regional offices handled case work locally, the headquarters in New York handled lawyer solicitation, fundraising, publicity, and other general activities. In December 1967, the LCDC was merged into the Roger Baldwin Foundation (the tax-exempt arm of the ACLU) becoming the LCDC project of the Foundation. As the civil rights movement grew in popularity, the LCDC's practical and ideological goals were met by other organizations, most notably the United States Justice Department.

The Lawyers Constitutional Defense Committee subseries (14.70 linear feet) documents the administrative activities of the LCDC and legal case work done in the southern United States. It is divided into administrative, correspondence, publicity and legal files. The administrative files contain minutes, field office files, miscellaneous material, financial matters, and national ACLU material. The correspondence consists mostly of Henry Schwarzschild's contacts with various individuals and organizations concerning LCDC administration. The publicity files contain statements, press releases, dockets, and newspaper clippings. The legal files contain documents relating to on the Sobol v. Perez case, in which the LCDC's New Orleans field office director Richard Sobol was charged with practicing law without a Louisiana license (a measure that threatened to block any out-of-state lawyer from trying cases in Louisiana).

Arrangement

No arrangement action taken or arrangement information not recorded at the time of processing.

Scope and Contents

The Privacy Project subseries (8.82 linear feet) contains records of project director Trudy Hayden. The project had a litigative component and a non-litigative component. The non-litigative section of the project gathered information related to privacy issues, conducted studies, researched legislation, issued reports and publications, and advised the national staff and affiliates on privacy concerns, particularly those resulting from advances in surveillance and data-gathering technologies.

The Privacy Project was the successor to the Project on Privacy and Data Collection which was established in 1973 in Washington, D.C. and closed in October 1974. After the project ceased operations in Washington, D.C., Hayden continued editing the project's main publication, the Privacy Report, from New York. Additional funding allowed the Privacy Project to resume in 1976, this time in New York with Hayden as director. The records include correspondence, memoranda, reports, surveys, studies, briefs, newspaper and magazine clippings, state legislation, and testimony.

The subseries is broken down into organizational files and subject files. The organizational records include information pertaining to other projects concerned with privacy issues, including those established by affiliates, and material about the Privacy Report. The subject files include examinations of federal, state and local government laws and rules for the collection and dissemination of personal information. Much of the material comprising these records was forwarded from affiliates.

Topics found include the unauthorized use by individuals, organizations, or the government of the Armed Services Vocational Battery Test; arrest records; bank records; credit reports; criminal justice records; employers and employment files; juvenile delinquency records; medical records; hospital records; psychological testing; psychiatric confidentiality; Social Security information; and student records. The subseries also documents police practices in gathering information, including eavesdropping and electronic surveillance. (The Wiretapping and Surveillance subject files (Series 3) also contain material on this topic.) The issues of child abuse and neglect and the limits of coercive intervention on the part of government are also documented.
