We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.
page four Programs for the Disadvantaged August 12, 1968 "The day after it was televised the Milwaukee Common Council after months of delay unexpectedly passed a strong open housing ordinance...Many Negroes said they believed the program had some¬ thing to do with this action." The New York Times , May 5 "Though it had some weaknesses, the series impres¬ sed this viewer as by far the most ambitious, pro¬ vocative and engrossing local TV seen in Milwaukee,," The Milwaukee Journal , May 12 "The main purpose of this program was to make aware the conditions existing in the inner city to those outside the inner city.. In our opinion, this goal was achieved . . . The Milwaukee Star , May 8 "Statements made by inner core residents and students sometimes were outrageous, possibly libelous, and nitpicking, but often were elo-' quent expressions in everyday folk language, of how real people feel in real situations«" The Milwaukee Sentinel , May 4 The reviews go on and on. It is difficult to find anything but admiration and support for what the Wisconsin State Journal called "o 00 a great service to the state by giving a first hand impression of the black view of the racial turmoil." And let’s not forget the listeners, the people who caught The Inner Core on radio only. "Radio at its best! ...thanks to the combined ef¬ forts of many in your organization we have had the opportunity to ’walk for a week in the shoes of our black neighbors’ 0 " "-“After the first hour I felt ashamed of myself for getting angry about missing an hour of music when these people were missing out on life." "You have done us, Milwaukee, the state, a great service." "It is so easy to listen to the things we like to hear / but we need to also hear some things we don’t like, and hopefully take some constructive action."
