Abstract: Papers of peace and civil liberties activist Donna Allen, who began her activism with Women Strike for Peace (WSP) in the 1950s. The collection documents her involvement with many groups, most notably Women Strike for Peace and National Conference for New Politics, of which she was a member of the executive board. Also reflected in the papers is Allen's heavy involvement in the anti-Vietnam War movement, especially with Women Strike for Peace and the Washington Mobilization Committee. Additionally, the collection includes the anti-Vietnam War files of fellow activist Margaret Russell (Women Strike for Peace).
