Preferred term

Anne and Carl Braden  

Definition

  • Carl Braden and Anne McCarty Braden were long-time southern organizers and journalists who were among the civil rights movement's strongest white allies in the post–World War II South. Despite numerous attempts in the Cold War years to discredit them as revolutionaries and “reds,” the pair applied their journalistic skills and left-wing vision to the causes of civil rights and civil liberties for almost three decades. [Source: Encyclopedia of Activism and Social Justice; Braden, Anne and Carl (1924–2006 and 1914–1975)]
