In this lesson, students will analyze primary sources to explore the work of the Voter Education Project to organize, register, and engage African American voters following the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
NHD thanks the Voter Education Project at the Robert W. Woodruff Library at Atlanta University for use of the archival resources in this lesson.
