Abstract
Description
Former "Invader" Colby Smith describes his time at Southwestern University and his tangential work with the NAACP and Democratic Club. He also also talks about his idealogical devide with many moderate Civil Rights leaders and explains the thinking of African American "militant" groups in the 1960s.
