July 13, 1964 - The national chairman of CORE and SNCC predicted today that if Senator Barry Goldwater is nominated, there will be national demonstrations with civil disobedience — starting at the Cow Palace in San Francisco.
Although the Cow Palace pickets have been peaceful so far, “it is conceivable” there will be civil disobedience starting tomorrow, said CORE’s chairman, James Farmer.
“I’ll expect it not only here but all over the country,” Farmer said. “CORE will picket everywhere Goldwater speaks from now to November.”
