Michael Rossman Papers – SLATE Political Activities and Publications, 1958-1971

Scope and content:: This series consists of materials collected by, or related to, Michael Rossman, who was active in creating the Free Speech Movement (FSM) Archives. Rossman, a member of the executive and steering committees of FSM, was not a member of SLATE but was, in his own words, “a fellow traveler.” The series includes administrative materials; correspondence; election materials and platforms; position papers; SLATE publications, including supplements to university course catalogs, newsletters and newspapers; and materials from summer conferences. There are materials related to SLATE’s activism within the student association at the University of California, the ASUC, and to student activism more broadly, in the anti-war, civil rights, farm labor, and free speech movements.
