Presented by George L. Weissman, New York, N.Y., April 30, 1968.
This collection was donated to the State Historical Society of Wisconsin by Mr. Weissman in the hope that the contributions of Donald West to the cause of civil rights not be forgotten. It arrived with several collections concerned with civil rights issues with which Weissman was involved: the Civil Rights Defense Committee Papers (Mss 79), the Committee to Combat Racial Injustice (Mss 51), and the Kutcher Civil Rights Committee (Mss 52).
