In 1977, the National Socialist (Nazi) Party of America intended to hold a public demonstration in the Village of Skokie, Illinois, to protest a Park District bond ordinance. Members intended to congregate in front of the Village Hall and march in Nazi paraphernalia. The Village of Skokie, a predominantly Jewish community which was home to thousands of Holocaust survivors, issued an injunction against the Nazi party to prohibit them from holding a demonstration. Nazi leader, Frank Collins, contested this injunction in the Illinois Supreme Court where the party was represented by David Goldberger, a Jewish attorney with the American Civil Liberties Union. The collection contains David Goldberger’s private records of the “Skokie Case.”
