Pueblo Colorado, Jan. 24th, 1916.
To The Honored Members
of the City Counsel for
Pueblo,
Sirs:
The colored citizens of Pueblo at a mass meeting assembled Jan. 20th, 1916
took under advisement the coming to our city for the purpose of showing in one of the
play houses here, " The Birth Of The Nation."
This is a most pernicious and malignant photo play disastrous in it's effect upon
the races and calculated to do great harm wherever shown.
We have commissioned a committee to wait upon you to earnestly petition your
honorable body to suppress this show and not allow it to be presented in this city.
The Colored Citizens Union,
