- 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)
