Box 1835 Greenville, Mississippi 38702-1835 Dear Victor: I welcome your suggestions for the NCBL National Convention Voting Rights Workshop in Los Angeles on October 9, for which you have agreed to be a panelist. As we discussed September 15, the workshop audience will probably includ.e a number of lawyers who are as interested in the philosophy of blacks participating in the political process as they are in the nuts and bolts of the Voting Rights Act. On the other hand, if we are trying to develop a cad,re of voting rights lawyers within NCBL, perhaps we need to offer some focus to the discussion. We can attempt a mini-encyclo- pedia of voting rights techniques, or we can confine ourselves to one or two issues (registration barriers, at large elections, the majority vote runoff). What are your views? Please give me a call or drop me a line at your earliest con- venLence.
