Location: Manuscript Division, Library of Congress, 101 Independence Ave. SE, Room LM 101, James Madison Memorial Bldg, Washington, D.C. 20540-4680

Description: Josephus Daniels (1862-1948) was an American diplomat, journalist, and secretary of the navy. As Raleigh News & Observer owner Josephus Daniels consistently pandered to rape fears in the Democratic party's successful effort to regain control of the North Carolina legislature in 1898. Their efforts to defame black men as sexual predators spilled over into overt racial violence in Wilmington, where it served as an excuse for whites to rampage through the black community and seize complete political control. Correspondence, diaries, speeches and writings. The series Correspondence, 1878-1948. [Subseries] Special, 1900-1947, contains files on Calvin Coolidge, George Creel, Thomas Dixon, Charles Edison, Thomas A. Edison, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Carter Glass, Herbert Hoover, Frank Knox, Frank Murphy, and Al Mitchell Palmer. The series Miscellany, 1839-1948, includes a collection of autographs and autograph letters, with files on Brooks Adams, Sherwood Anderson, Hugo Lafayette Black, Cecil B. DeMille, Henry Ford, Charles A. Lindbergh, Douglas MacArthur, and Henry Louis Mencken.
