Collection Overview
- Biography / History
- Laura S. Massie (1937-) served as the General Coordinator and member of the Steering Committee for the Lexington Committee on Religion and Human Rights from 1962-1965. She was married to William K. Massie.
- Established in 1962, the Lexington Committee on Religion and Human Rights (LCRHR) was a grassroots interracial and interfaith civic organization whose "abiding concern [was] the preservation of human rights, human dignity, and equality of opportunity in every sphere of community life" and actively participated in efforts "to eliminate racism permanently and decisively." The LCRHR engaged in nonviolent practices, acting as a negotiating agency between key businesses, religious organizations, government entities, and other community groups concerned with human rights to promote better race relations in Lexington. The LCRHR's work supported fair housing practices and policies, an end to discrimination in public accommodations, the integration of public schools, and ensuring voting rights. Additionally, the LCRHR was a critical supporter of the development of the Lexington-Fayette County Urban League and participated in the establishment of the Lexington Human Rights Commission.
- Joseph L. Massie, Carl I. Lynem, and Stanley I. Rose served as co-chairmen of the LCRHR, and Rev. James W. Angell served as the LCRHR's religious advisor. The LCRHR was made up of subcommittees including Employment, Housing, Education, Public Accommodations, and Church Liaison. Programs initiated by and supported by the LCRHR include the Green Circle Program, the Lexington Service Corps, and resolutions urging compliance with the Civil Rights Act.

Scope and Contents note
The Lexington Committee on Religion and Human Rights (LCRHR) series contains the operating records of the LCRHR, including annual reports, constitution and by-laws, correspondence, newsletters, meeting agenda, membership lists, resolutions, and subcommittee records, that document their activities to further the civil rights movement in Lexington and Kentucky as a whole. Laura Massie served as both the General Coordinator and unofficial record keeper for the organization. The correspondence includes letters from and to Fred B. Wachs, general manager and president of the Lexington Herald-Leader; Fred B. Fugazzi, Lexington Mayor; Gregory E. Shinert, director of the Lexington Commission on Human Rights; Herndon J.

The correspondence and newsletters show the breadth of the LCRHR's collaboration with other Kentucky and national civil rights organizations, including the Kentucky Commission on Human Rights, the Lexington Commission on Human Rights, the National Conference on Religion and Race, the Congress of Racial Equality, and the Allied Organizations for Civil Rights in Kentucky.
