Originally donated by the League of Women Voters of Mississippi and accessioned as
collection 89-42.
In 1994, Judy Barber of Jackson donated two filing cabinets of materials to the existing
collection. Susan Sprecker of Vicksburg also donated an accretion to the collection
in
1994. Barber requested a copy of the finding aid upon its completion for herself and
Fran
Laber, who was compiling a history of the Jackson division.
Dr. Cora Norman of Jackson donated an accretion of photographs and clippings to the
collection on 23 October 2003.
Dr. Fran Leber donated additional material on 4 September 2008.
Political Papers Archivist Leigh McWhite revised the finding aid in 2008 and 2009
with
the assistance of Ellie Campbell and Maggie Tate. EAD finding aid created in May 2009
by
Jason Kovari, Digital Initatives Librarian.
The digitization and preservation of recordings in this collection are the result
of a project supported in part by a 2010-2011 grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services. Any views, findings, conclusions, or recommendations expressed on this website
do not necessarily represent those of the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
The finding aid was revised after the grant in 2011.
Infrequent additions are expected to this collection.
A nonpartisan, national organization, the League of Women Voters (LWV) "encourages
the
informed and active participation of citizens in government and influences policy
through
education and advocacy." Educational service involves the presentation of information
about
elections, the voting process, and issues. Although it does not support or oppose
any
candidate or party, the LWV does provide a forum where all candidates may state their
positions on the issues. The LWV also advocates for policies in the public interest.
When the Nineteenth Amendment became ratified in 1920 granting women the right to
vote, the
Mississippi Woman Suffrage Association reorganized itself as the League of Women Voters
of
Mississippi. Over the next decade, the number of local chapters grew and members sought
not
only to prepare women to vote but also encouraged women's participation in the political
process by holding public meetings, issuing publications, and questioning candidates
on the
issues. In addition to voter education, the organization also advocated protective
legislation for women and children.
However, the Mississippi organization disappeared from all records of the national
League
of Women Voters by 1932. The state division did not experience resurgence until the
1950s.
By that time, the national organization had begun to address the issue of African
American
civil rights. State membership totals declined in the latter half of the 1950s despite
the
Mississippi League's avoidance of segregation and civil rights. The group instead
focused on
jury service for women, reapportionment of state districts, and support for the United
Nations. Numbers declined even further when the national organization adopted a civil
rights
position in 1964. The Mississippi League, meanwhile, worked to keep the public school
system
open, and began enrolling African-American members. After years of avoidance, the
LWV of
Mississippi tentatively began to urge fair voter registration and voting law compliance.
This stance ultimately acquired the group a subversive reputation among the state's
white
segregationist population.
The national League of Women Voters sponsored televised presidential debates in 1976,
1980,
and 1984. In 1988, the LWV withdrew its affiliation in reaction to efforts by party
nominees
to dictate the terms of the debate. However, it continues to hold debates and candidate
forums at the state and local levels, as well as providing voters' guides that outline
candidate's positions on issues.
