James Farmer: Post CORE

Oct 31st, 2007 by Leandra Frye

Was James Farmer’s influence as great after he was no longer working with CORE? What was it that made him take a position working for the Nixon administration. These are among the questions that I will answer with my research. I feel that this is an important subject because it was a step in a different direction for James Farmer. He had worked with other presidents before, but this was different and the job had him working inside of the government instead outside it. In order to do my research I will not only look at James Farmer, but at those that worked around him. I will also look into proposals James Farmer made and also try and find out more about the Head Start program and how it came to be.

    This is a different view of James Farmer, and I like the way it will take you. We don’t see this view of him, and I agree that this is soemthing that people need to hear about. Nixon was a very inspired president, and with him getting Mr. Farmer to work for him is a huge step for the black society. I hope it all works out.
