research question

Sep 19th, 2007 by dengel

Can we find any members/children of members that worked closely with James Farmer in CORE? Are there any source documents that would be useful to study/post on the site?

Since CORE did not leave much of a paper trail, I was thinking of focusing more on people that we could realistically track down. I especially want to find people that knew him as a young boy and watched him grow up, such as neighbors, friends, etc. If that proves itself to be very difficult as well, we could also try to find his former students from Mary Washington. Someone had the idea already to do this, but since it’s such a large task, I’d be interested in helping them. Important resources would be people that he continues to mention in his autobiography, the school in Texas that has the old grade books, and possibly the registrars at UMW that may be able to find his former students on file.
