SCLC’s People’s
Achievement Festival Set
For June 3-6 In Atlanta
The Metro Atlanta Chapter
of the Southern Christian
Leadership Conference (SCLC)
under the leadership of Rev.
Hosea L. Williams, is holding
its First Annual “PEOPLE’S
ACHIEVEMENT FESTIVAL”
June 3rd through June 6th in
Atlanta.
The theme of the festival is
“Eliminate poverty through
mind power.” The festival is
designed to be as large as Black
Expo in Chicago, but will have
a much more year-round
positive effect on the problems
that are destroying our cities.
SCLC will not be praising
people for being poor, but will
be praising those, who inspite
of being poor, have been able
to make it for themselves. Due
to the Festival’s potential to
raise the economic conscious
level of the poor, and to offset
that awful welfare mentality
that is destroying the very
foundation on which America
was founded, SCLC officers
have personally discussed the
Festival with business and
community leaders, including
Dr. Ralph David Abernathy
and Julian Bond and everyone
of them agreed the program is
relevant and said they would
support it in some way.
The four-day Festival, which
is being held at a number of
Atlanta locations, including the
Georgia World Congress
Center, SCLC’s Headquarters
and the OMNI, will feature
activities for the entire family.
The main event of the
Festival is the Poor Man/Rich
Man Banquet on June 3rd.
Rev. Ike is the honored guest
and deliver the main address
from the topic “BE WHAT
YOU WANT TO BE.”
Also during the four-day
Festival is an all-day FREE
CARNIVAL, the “People’s
Survival Forum,” a Saturday
night ROCK CONCERT at the
OMNI, the “People’s Public
Auction with all items
beginning at sl, a city-wide
multiracial TRUE RELIGIOUS
REVIVAL Service, and the
“PEOPLE’S CULTURAL
HOUR” which will include
SCLC’s 300 voice choir.
. Revemed Williams says,
“Unlike most programs that
generate funds, the ending of
our Festival is truly the
beginning of several
“SELF-HELP” programs that
will have a lasting, positive
impact upon the problems that
are destroying our cities.”
The self-help programs that
follow the Festival are designed
to become self- ststaining in
time. None of the programs
will need continuous funding.
Rev. Hosea L. Williams
governmental or private. “That
would just be another form of
welfare,” states Rev. Williams.
SCLC in the past has
supported many programs to
help the poor in Atlanta help
themselves. Proceeds from the
Festival, which will be handled
by a national accounting firm
located in Atlanta, wfll go
toward financing current
programs as well as to lanuch
new SCLC social programs.
Following is a partial list of
programs the Festival will help
fund: Cultural Development
Center, Ex-Offender
Rehabilitation Program,
24-Hour Day Care center.
Nutrition Kitchen, Clothing
Center and a life Black
Theater.

a small town. His second
choice would be his hometown

choice, Southerland did not

interest in medicine while
