COMMUNITY RELATIONS COMMISSION 1203 CITY HALL ATLANTA, GEORGIA MINUTES OF THE COMMUNITY RELATIONS COMMISSION HEARING IN THE DIXIE HILLS AREA June 19, 1967 Hearing on Dixie Hills, Wednesday, June 19, 1967, EDA Center, 2193 Verbena St. The Executive Committee of the Commission met at the request of the Mayor. Present: CHAIRMAN: FIRST VICE-CHAIRMAN: SECOND VICE-CHAIRMAN: EXECUTIVE QIRECTOR: Mr. Irving K. Kaler Rev. Samuel Williams Miss Helen Bullard Mrs. Eliza K. Paschall Also present were Senator Leroy Johnson, Alderman Q. V. Williamson, Rep. J. D. Grier, Rep. J. c. Daugherty, Mr. Cecil Alexander, Mr. Johnny Robinson, and Mr. B. L.

Mr. Kaler explained that the session had been called at the request of the Mayor to hear from residents about the events of the past few days, and invited anyone to speak.

Furlow 2166 Vesta Ave., #B Mr. Johnny Billingsley 2225 Ve r bena St. #5 Will ie GlazE 155 Wadley ~ Mr. Howard Watson, the Youth Corps Co-chairman, was the first speak e r. He expressE his complaints, and what he thought precipitated the rioting was (1) inadequate play lots for the immediat e area, ( 2 ) better treatments in the sto r es, (3) apartments, (4) police prutality, and (5) unpaved streets, with holes in them. The apartments are owned by private owners , and the owners should be made to repair the apartments, and rents are too high for the way they are unkept by the owners. Streets need paving, some large holes are in the middle of them. The sewage is very bad, when it rain, water floo-dsup in the streets. He felt that th e stores in the Center, should treat the childre n , as well as others with respect. The brutality is another factor for unrest - w~en tr.e official was arr esting the girl the y used brutplity with her, and the people didn't want their women treated that way. The policemen seem to feel that the people in the low-income brack et, can be treated anyway, and talked to anyway. The rioting did not just stem from the trying t o get recreation facilities, but mostly "po.J.ice brutal ity". �Page 2 Minut~-s, Go)'riffli-ls.i.$fll M:a,a-~i1'1t· in Diixie Hills, ~-t' _ Weg., June 21st DOROTHY SHA ~I: Sha s t ated tna~ -n.e.- ·g KieelJlai'IGes~ o eantpl.aiti<ts were (1) play- lots for th-e ch.ildren; (2) E.-D,,£1., shttuld ha,,,e f'li..e.1.d trips ~ the smaller children ( ~) the selli:n·e ff lieu aJ:ld sWi':na to l ndt Dtiil d~e.n in the store should be stop;pa"d.

De yeu think this would come about anyway? SHAW: The disturbance would come about sooner or later, mainly because our kids are on the streets, MARION WARD: the man whe was shot, treated, and released, stated that he waited in the streets in order to help the fellow who was shot (later he died). After waiting on the police, he went to get his superior offccer ( the police), he never came back to heip the other man. We told the Commission that he heard four Shots, that the officer pump the gun four times, That the man who threw the fixe bomb (Molotov Cocktail) was not near them. The Molotov Cocktail went just a few feet in front of the officer who shot these people. He saw the police start to shoot, the police was under a street light. He stated that he could identify him if he saw him again. The other man (who died) was just lying in the streets “face down", and the boy wae not bleeding, unless he was bleeding on the inside, both unattended. He stated that he was trested ahd released at Grady’s Mospital. The ambulance took about two hours to come He said he had started to bleed again, that it was about 30 minutes after he got to the hospital before he received any service. He was asked to make a statement ta detectives befere he began to get service. There are no playlots for our children, the rent is too high, and nothing is offered for them. ("I pay $65.00 per month; no utilities are included") He has three cAhildren himself, and that the apartments are infested with roaches, rats, and other insects: that the owners should get rid of. WILLIAM H. FURLOW: Feels that previous probleme cause this thing to ceme to a point. After the rioting he came back to this area to see whet was happening, he feels that this situation came about because of the brutality of the pelice atresting of the girl (Georgia). This community this large do net need a Jew Store, with prices skyhigh, and little quality. A community this sige needs a store like A & P er ene similar. The city should make the owners repair the apartments. There are holes in the wall, where children get inte them to pley. This is dangerous. Also play lots are needed for our children. WILKIE JORDAN: Get property owners to fix up the property, keep places clean. Felt that if the policemen were te parole the area, it shouic be in such a large quanity, and not harass the people. As long as the renople are treated like people, there will be peace. If the officials exe mean te them, they will continue te gather in crowds as such. Thrive «neuld be an effort if the policemen are needed they should b32 a-le ‘tc seach the area in 5 to 8 minutes.

She s ys that she realize that a lot of people do not have respect for the law, but this comes from the brutality from the policemen. IKIE JORDAN said that the people held a meeting that night, (Monday) We called this meeting to hear from tre people their complaints. A community preacher made arrangements as to where this meeting was to be held. Their complaints were as follows: (1) work, (2) the stores in the Center, (3) EOA, they are not helping the people with their problems, (4) Poor Sewage, (5) Play lots, and recreation are not doing what could be done with the apartment. We would like someone from the Cit. to guard this area as a regular beat, someone who knows everyone. And they should take a human-relations course, similar to the one given in colleges. Then thes would know how to handle these people. Also E0A do not show to much interest to the people in the area, and are not really giving assistance to them. The counselors do not take interest. MRS. ALBERT FORD: Police brutality is drawing attention from the people. JERRY CARLTON: The police are not protecting the people, and they should be gotten out. He stated further that he saw the little boy who was shot, in the hospital, and that the kid wants to kill every cop that comes into his sight -- that this is the reaction a small child has from such brutality --- and that he is too young to think like that --- but the police are teaching hi this way because of the way they treat people. The security guards are given a gun and a badge and that is their license to kill, or harass anyone they want. Qe V. WILLIAMSON: "The only thing the police are there for is to protect life and property. If they are taken out now what will happen"? JOHNNY BILLINGSLAY: “This community once had a fellow who was real nice, but the city took him away, and gave us another person here who tried to bully everyone. He was removed after he shot a man here. Then the store and the grill hired a Security Guard . The man who everyone liked was Mr. Collier". CHAIRMAN: "Could this man be brought back to help us with the peoric«, and their problems"? JILLINGSLAY: “The only thing we want here is 'peace'". “HARLES WEBSTER, AFSC: "Chairman, I ayree with Mr. Billinesicy, 34 “>, Carlton. This community needs someone who the peopls ic. | cnt trust. Page 4 Minutes, Commission Hearing in Dixie Hills Wed., June 21st C. \!. SMITH: "We have a number of complaints". He works with EDA as Area Block Chairman of their lighting committee. He states that they had a number of complaints, in addition to the other complaints, is proper lighting in the area. This complaint has been brought up before the proper authorities, but nothing has yet been done about it. VIRGINIA JACKSON: Works with Anderson School's PTA, and talk to the boys in the area. The people here feel that the peaple with the EQOA are better than them, the way they are treated. Since most of these people are not high-school graduates, they (E0A) in counselling them- should tell these kids, not to expect to make a lot of money on the jobs that they are sent out on. Some of them have gotten into the training program, but this makes them frustrated, because if they have families, the salary they are given are not enough. The counselors should let them know what is to be expected. HELEN BULLARD: "Some people will not respect the policemen if the children are told that the policemen go about and beat up the people. What could be done about this"? VIRGINIA JACKSON: "My suggestion is, as I tell my children, (and I have five) that whenever a policeman urders you to do something, do it. If you are arrested go with them peacefully, wheter you are wrong or right. Then this is when you exercise y-ur righis by hiring a lawyer". CHAIRMAN: “If the City removes the policemen from the area, will it make this area less disturbed"? VIRGINIA JACKSON: “ve don't need anyone here, who cannot get order. The policemen are causing disorder." WILLIE GLAZE: "Some of the people in the area feel that the people who the cops shot are either th tr friend or relative". CHARLES B. HART: Asked what would their reactiins be if Mr, Carmichael came back into the area, once the policemen are removed. Wold they be able to guarantee anyone that they would not be motivated by his speeches and riot again?
