Historical NoteReturn to Top
Seattle’s Civic Unity Committee (CUC), a primarily white civil rights organization, lobbied for civil rights laws and sought to persuade the white community not to discriminate. A large-scale migration of blacks to Seattle during the Second World War increased racial tensions, prompting Seattle Mayor William Devin to create the CUC in 1944. Devin appointed prominent business, civic, religious, and labor leaders to the CUC--seven white men, two white women, two black men, and one Chinese-American man in all--but pointedly refused to select anyone seen as “left-wing.” The CUC negotiated with a number of firms that refused to hire blacks, but generally failed to end the discrimination. The CUC did, however, play a major role in ensuring that the return of interned Japanese Americans to Seattle went peacefully. The CUC ran employment and rental referral services for returning Japanese Americans and convinced local newspapers to condemn anti-Japanese discrimination.
When the fear of racial violence ebbed after the war, Mayor Devin cut the CUC’s ties with city government. The CUC reorganized as a private organization, funded by the King County Community Chest and by members’ donations. The number of members generally hovered around 1,000.
When Congress killed the national Fair Employment Practices Committee in 1946, the CUC turned its attention to passing a state-level job discrimination law. The CUC spun off a sister organization, the Washington State Fair Employment Practices Committee (later called the Washington State Committee Against Discrimination in Employment). While the Urban League wanted blacks to take a prominent role in a well-publicized anti-job discrimination campaign, the CUC and its sister group preferred to focus only on the legislature and to use white lobbyists. The CUC’s tactics seemed to fit the conservative political climate of the time; in 1949 the CUC and its allies convinced the legislature to create the Washington State Board Against Discrimination in Employment (later named the Washington State Board Against Discrimination (WSBAD). WSBAD had the power to investigate complaints, subpoena records, issue orders to stop discrimination, and enforce its orders in court. CUC lobbying later won laws banning discrimination in public accommodations (1953) and in publicly-funded housing (1957). While the CUC admired WSBAD’s attempts to use quiet negotiations rather than lawsuits or negative publicity to end discrimination, the Seattle National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and Urban League were furious at what they saw as a “do nothing” policy. These groups recommended that WSBAD denounce firms that refused to comply with anti-discrimination orders, and thought the agency should publicize the prevalence of racial discrimination in general. These policies were implemented by Democratic Governor Albert Rossellini’s appointees to WSBAD after 1957.
The CUC tried to combat racism in the white community with a number of techniques. They published a semi-monthly newsletter, Fair Play, which ran upbeat stories about improvements in race relations. The CUC sent its trustees to talk to civic organizations about discrimination. From 1948 to 1953 the CUC and the University of Washington sponsored an annual Northwest Institute on Race Relations. The Institute hired a prominent speaker to give a number of speeches to college and high school students and to do radio interviews. Lack of funds in 1954 and thereafter led the CUC to cancel the Institute and just hire a speaker to talk at a different high school each year.
The CUC shifted its focus to housing issues in the 1950s. The CUC was the primary force in the creation of the Greater Seattle Housing Council, a group which included construction companies, realtors, and civil rights activists. The CUC intended this group to promote dialogue and convince the real estate industry to voluntarily adopt open housing policies. Realtors, however, proved unwilling to change. When Washington’s law barring discrimination in publicly-funded housing was declared unconstitutional in 1962, the CUC joined the NAACP and the Urban League in sponsoring a blanket open housing law for all of Seattle. The CUC convinced the Seattle City Council to create a Human Rights Commission (now called the Human Rights Division) to draft an open housing law. Former CUC President Alfred Westberg chaired the Commission. The CUC lobbied the open housing law past a number of parliamentary roadblocks in City Council, but opponents collected enough signatures to put the new law to a referendum. Although the CUC conducted a vigorous campaign, fully 68 % of Seattle voters opposed the ordinance in the March 1964 election. This defeat disheartened the CUC, leading many members to conclude that their critics in other civil rights organizations were right--perhaps efforts to persuade white people not to discriminate had outlived their usefulness. The CUC disbanded soon after the election. Some CUC trustees joined Seattle’s primarily black-led civil rights groups, and some went to work for the Seattle Human Rights Commission.

Correspondence
Arrangement:
The correspondence in this collection is divided into two
subseries. This is due to the manner in which the material was originally
received and to the fact that in transferring the material to our collection,
some of the original order was destroyed. The two subseries are as follows:
correspondence sorted chronologically, which after 1955 consists primarily of
outgoing and interoffice correspondence; and correspondence by subject or
correspondent, the manner in which materials were filed before 1955. Materials
that did not have any designation as to subject matter have been filed in one
of three ways: with other material from the same correspondent, if such a file
existed; with the subject matter it covered, if such a file existed; or with
the chronological file of no other place could be found. In the last case,
names of the correspondents are given in the scope and content note for the
folder.
Scope and Content:
To locate correspondence from a specific organization, the best
way in which to use the collection is to check the subject and correspondents
subseries first. However, if the interest is more general, or in the CUC
itself, the best approach would be first to examine the mimeographed materials
which were kept in a chronological file from 1956 to 1964. These files contain
minutes, reports, interoffice correspondence, etc. They will lead the
researcher to organizations and copies in the other files. For the period prior
to these dates, the minutes of meetings and the reports are the best records to
examine. The latter are quite complete, and the monthly, quarterly, and
activities reports give an accurate picture of all the cases and processes
handled and used. These files also contain duplicate copies of minutes and
reports after 1956, but the mimeographed materials give a much more complete
picture of the workings of the organization.

Chronological
Scope and Content:
Most of the chronological correspondence is signed by the
various CUC members; these names are not noted.
Incoming correspondence in the chronological files is usually
in the form of copies which have been circulated among the members of the
CUC.

6/35-8/4 | 0479-001 | 1956-1964
Scope and Content:
After 1955, a chronological record of all mimeographed
materials was kept. This includes form letters, agendas, minutes, etc. As a
result, a great deal of material is duplicated because items were not checked
against this record. All have been left as received with most recent on top
within the folders.
|
1956-1964 |
Subjects and correspondents
Scope and Content:
Within this subseries, many of the folders have corporate name
entries. This indicates that most of the correspondence in the folder is from
that organization . It may also, however, contain correspondence about that
organization from other organizations and individuals. Furthermore, although
one organization may have its own folder, all its correspondence will not
necessarily be found there. For example, if the Anti-Defamation League has
worked closely on a problem that has been given its own folder, such as the
Laurelhurst Beach Club problem, much of its correspondence will also be found
there. This was the system used by the CUC, and it has been retained as much as
possible.

Northwest Institute of Race Relations
records
Arrangement:
This series has been arranged into subseries by Institute, in
chronological order. Within each subseries, correspondence is arranged
chronologically. Names of prominent individuals and organizations are noted. If
the correspondence was of a routing nature (acceptances, requests, etc.), no
names were designated. Neither are the names of the organizers of the Institute
given since they were all CUC members and officers. The University of
Washington Division of Adult Education and Extension Services played a major
part in each Institute, and therefore this correspondence, too, is not
specified.
To aid the researcher, the names of the guest speakers at each
institute have been given at the start of each series. This also indicates that
much of the correspondence will be with and about him.
Records of later Institutes also include subject files for essay
entries, discussion groups, etc. These are found after the chronological
arrangement.
Scope and Content:
The history of the Northwest Institute of Race Relations is
described in the reports to be found at the beginning of the series.

Washington State Committee Against Discrimination in
Employment (WSCAD) records
Biographical/Historical Note:
Formerly the Washington State Fair Employment Practices
Committee, this group decided in 1948 to remain free from ties with the
National Council for Permanent Fair Employment Practices Committee and
reorganized under the new name (see Minutes, April and July 1948). The
Committee was more interested in state than national legislation and therefore
they chose to remain free. The sponsors and members for the most part remained
the same and the work was done with the same goal in mind. This committee was
not an official state committee. It was a private committee organized by a
number of interested citizens, and it lead to the establishment of the official
State Board Against Discrimination in Employment in 1950.
The Civic Unity Committee participated in the work of WSCAD and
handled all the secretarial work, but WSCAD was not a part of the Civic Unity
Committee itself.
Scope and Content:
The first subseries are historical materials, lists of members
and sponsors, and minutes of meetings. These files are valuable in determining
the work of the committee as well as in explaining the complex reorganization
of the committee in 1948.
The general correspondence has been filed first by date. Names
of correspondents have been brought out to guide the researcher. Following
these are files for particular correspondents. Some contain material from
various cities in Washington State; others pertain to correspondence from
