ABOUT THE SCLC: Established in 1957, the SCLC, whose fi rst president was Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., is an international organization made up of chapters and affi liates with programs that aff ect the lives of all Americans: north, south, east, and west. Its sphere of infl uence and interests have become international in scope because the human rights movement transcends national boundaries.
