Summary

[edit]
Description
English: "Citizens Council of Greater New Orleans" (a segregationist white-supremactist group run by Plaquemines Parish boss Leander Perez): racist broadside promoting a boycott of Ford Motor Co. because of Ford's support of the Civil Rights movement.

---

NOTICE!

TO ALL WHITE CITIZENS GREETINGS:

STOP

Buying FORD CARS and TRUCKS and other Ford Products

For years and years a considerable portion of the profits from the sale of Ford cars, trucks, and other Ford products have been funneled into tax free foundations. MILLIONS and MILLIONS and MILLIONS of dollars of Ford profits have been distributed to integration and civil rights organizations to fight the white people of the SOUTH, by forcing them to associate with negroes.

It is time to dry up at least one source of the money that is being used to destroy our Southern way of life.

DON’T BUY A FORD EVER AGAIN
