Negroes Plan Third Party In Alabama
In Montgomery a plan by SNCC to form a black panther party gains traction amid rising Negro voting influence in Alabama. Rufus Lewis fears a Lowndes County third party could divide, while SNCC confirms a new party aims to back Negro candidates under the black panther emblem in the next general election. Other counties with majority Black votes may consider similar efforts.
