This is a 6X9 handbill or flyer for a revival at Greater Middle Baptist Church in Memphis, Tennessee, led by the famous Civil Rights leader, Ben Hooks. Hooks had returned home to Memphis after WWII to practice law. In 1956 he became a minister at Greater Middle and began to be involved with both the SCLC and the NAACP. At the time of this flyer, he was beginning his involvement with the Civil Rights Movement and was actively involved with sit-ins and boycotts. Eventually, in the 1970's, he became President of the NAACP. This flyer is an early document relating to this well-known leader. It is in near fine condition with only mild, even toning of the newsprint. ; B&W Photograph of Hooks; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 1 pages
