It looks like several microfilm copies of the Papers of the NAACP are out there, but I don't have access to them. In one of the guides to the microfilm collection it says the full transcript as well as letters back and forth about Spottswood's 1970 speech are in the supplement to part 1, 1966-1970. Anyone able to find a digital copy? --— Rhododendritestalk \\ 21:02, 9 November 2014 (UTC)Reply
