Posting for a fellow librarian-
One of his patrons is looking for what she describes as a "Civil Rights Era photograph by SNCC photographer Bob Fletcher- the photo apparently shows someone protesting rock music and is holding up a flyer that says "Don't Let Your Children Listen to Race Music."
We have in our collection an 8 x 10 circular with the following heading: "Notice! /Stop/Help Save the Youth of America/Don't Buy Negro Records . . . . The circular was distributed by the Citizens' Council of Greater New Orleans and there is no image, so I don’t think this is exactly what the patron is looking for.
If anyone knows the whereabouts of this photo (possibly published in a book?) please let me know.
Thanks, Brenda
