Box 42 - Gore, President George W.

This file consists of speeches and speech-related materials created and delivered by Dr. George W. Gore, Jr., dating from 1951 to 1962, with additional undated materials, and documents his public thought on a wide range of social, educational, civic, and moral subjects. The contents include full speeches, short statements, thematic addresses, and reference materials such as poems and quotations by other authors, which were likely used to support or inform Gore’s own public presentations. Subject matter represented in this file includes higher education, leadership, integration, Negro citizenship, public health, religious messages, youth, teaching and the teaching profession, liberal arts education, and fellowship observances, reflecting Gore’s broad engagement with issues affecting African American communities, education, and civic life during the mid-twentieth century.

The file is arranged alphabetically by subject heading, beginning with general categories such as Poems and Quotes and Short Statements, and continuing through more specific topical groupings including Fellowship Day, Higher Education, Integration, Leadership, Negro Citizenship, Public Health, Religious Messages, Teachers/Teaching Profession, and Youth. Within each subject grouping, materials are arranged chronologically when dates are present, with dated items followed by related undated materials. Date coverage varies by subject, with some files limited to a single year—such as Fellowship Day (1952)—and others spanning multiple years, including Leadership (1955–1956), Negro Citizenship (1951–undated), Public Health (1962–undated), and Youth (1952–undated). Together, these materials provide insight into Dr. Gore’s evolving perspectives on education, citizenship, and leadership, as well as his sustained role as a public intellectual and educational leader.
