Association for Democratic State Chairs (ASDC)

The Association for Democratic State Chairs series documents the group's work and concerns during Winograd's tenure as president. Although not extensive, the materials do show the ASDC's interest in party building and the federal election process. The materials on DEMPAC represent the work of a coalition between the ASDC, DNC, and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC), formed in 1980 "to block Republican efforts to control the reapportionment process in 1982 by winning state legislatures in 1980." (Quote from DEMPAC folder).

  1. motivation and circumstances that brought the athlete to Michigan
  2. high school experience and honors
  3. athletic experience / accomplishments at U-M
  4. relations with coaches and fellow players
  5. any particular experience of discrimination or prejudice, in particular with regard to lodging and travel
  6. any notable positive experience with coaches, teammates or others
  7. election of Blacks as team captains
  8. campus social life, including fraternities and interracial dating
  9. housing discrimination in Ann Arbor
  10. educational and work experience
  11. response to the Black Action Movement BAM and the larger civil rights movement.

The interviews range from ca. 40-minutes to ca. 80 minutes in length. They are listed chronologically by date of the athletes U-M career. The sound level on some recordings is fairly low and you many need to raise the volume on your speaker.
