This case study concerns the forming of a Marietta, Ohio unity committee, entitled Citizens for Social and Racial Justice, in response to the local Ku Klux Klan's (KKK) request for a parade permit in order to demonstrate against blacks in this city. Marietta, the county seat of Washington County, Ohio, has a population composed of both white and black citizens. The committee's objectives included: (1) celebrating unity as a community of people; (2) demonstrating opposition to the KKK's objectives and presenting alternative goals; (3) educating children through positive examples; and (4) demonstrating in a peaceful and nonviolent manner. The case study describes the planning of a proposed unity walk and rally to coincide with the KKK demonstration, tensions and conflicts between unity committee members and city officials, security procedures, and post-unity celebration activities. The document provides: (1) the unity celebration schedule of events; (2) guidelines for appropriate demonstration behavior; (3) selected newspaper articles; and (4) demonstration route maps. Appendices include: (1) a 1923 article from the KKK newspaper, "The Klan-Kraft"; (2) a copy of a cryptic hate-letter; and (3) a newspaper article by Geraldine Parker, entitled "Sheltered Slaves Escaping from South 'Underground Railroad' Ran through Washington County."
