Black Jewish Relations- Jewish Left - Description:
- Clipping from the Philadelphia based CP alligned publication "The Worker" (aka Daily Worker) mentioning how two of the Ingram family sons were being supported by the IWO's funding campaign. The IWO worked with the Civl Rights Congress (CRC) and others to raise money for the Ingram legal defense, a cause celebre in its day in regard to Southern juries, Jim Crow, possibly attempted rape, and sharecropping (Terrell's account elsewhere of the particulars differs in some respects from that offered by the IWO although both attribute the convictions to racism).
- Notes:
- The Jewish People’s Fraternal Order was the largest ‘national’ section of the International Workers Order (IWO) which focused on cultural awareness and celebration, mutual support especially in health insurance coverage, and anti-fascist activities. The IWO also gave particular emphasis to supporting the rights and interests of African Americans.
