Delta Ministry Freedom City Pamphlet

Delta Ministry pamphlet advertising “Freedom City” as a way for disenfranchised plantation workers to build a better life for themselves and their families, 1965. The Delta Ministry, led by Episcopal Bishop Paul Moore was a national response to the racial unrest in Mississippi. Allin, however, believed that a local approach to the problem was a better solution. The two men would be at odds through the tumultuous times of the 1960s.
