Title: New York school boycott keeps many out of class.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-30565 NEW YORK SCHOOL BOYCOTT KEEPS MANY OUT OF CLASS NEW YORK -- Many students went to class on schedule, but thousands of others observed a one-day boycott of all New York City schools to protest racial imbalance in the system. The demonstration was the largest of its kind ever held in the country, with 464, 361 students -- 44.8 percent of the total enrollment -- observing the boycott. Though "freedom song" renditions and shouting marked the march around schools, the picketing was orderly and unobstructed. Many of the boycotting students spent the day in "freedom schools" established mainly in local churches. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (W-NY-2B-64-NBM)

Title: "Freedom Schools" held for boycotting students.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-30567 "FREEDOM SCHOOLS" HELD FOR BOYCOTTING STUDENTS NEW YORK -- Several hundred "Freedom Schools," most of them located in Protestant churches, were established throughout New York City during the boycott held in protest to racial imbalance in the public schools. Here, at Grace Congregational church in Harlem, the Freedom School class was composed of Negro and Puerto Rican students; many white students also took part in the boycott and most Freedom School classes were well integrated. Instruction was concentrated on the meaning of the civil rights effort, but also included other subjects and recreation. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (W-NY-2B-64-NBM)

Title: Christmas service in new Mississippi church.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-31974 CHRISTMAS SERVICE IN NEW MISSISSIPPI CHURCH RIPLEY, Miss. -- A group of northern college students, calling themselves “Carpenters for Christmas,” paused with members of the congregation of the Negro Antioch Baptist church near Ripley, Miss., for Christmas services. The church, burned to the ground Oct. 30 after a civil rights rally was held there, was reconstructed during the holiday weeks by the volunteer student group. The paster of the congregation, the Rev. John R. McDonald, preaches the Christmas sermon to the church members and students, who later put the roof on the new structure and rushed to complete the interior before returning to their campuses. Most of the volunteer carpenters were from Oberlin (Ohio) College. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (W-NY-12E-64-NBM)

Title: Seminarians' racial Christmas card.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-31952 SEMINARIANS’ RACIAL CHRISTMAS CARD ST. PAUL, Minn. -- This unusual Christmas card was a result of the involvement of a group of seminarians in a racial justice project last summer in Mississippi. The greeting card reproduces a photo of a Negro boy in a Harlem slum. Participating in the racial project were about 100 students preparing for the priesthood at Nazareth Hall, minor seminary of the St. Paul archdiocese, in suburban Arden Hills. As a result of their work they were determined to have a “relevant” message dealing with racial justice on one of the Christmas card they prepare and sell annually. The card reads: “Christ is here. Go to meet Him. He is here…in His poor, in the afflicted, in the little ones, in those thirsting for justice, in His least brethren, in the crucified. Embrace Him.” Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (WT-MINN-12D-64-NAB)
