Biographical History

The Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) was created in 1960 at Shaw University in Raleigh, North Carolina. Its purpose was to coordinate the student protest movement. SNCC led voter registration drives in Mississippi and other southern states, held civil rights demonstrations advocating social integration, and sponsored the Freedom Summer of 1964 in Mississippi.

The International Affairs Commission was organized by James Forman following his 1966 resignation as executive secretary of SNCC. The Commission was formed after the adoption of SNCC's declaration as a human rights organization.
