Papers of attorney Richard Krooth and his wife, Ann Baxandall Krooth, both of whom were social activists in the 1960s. Most of the materials were collected or created by Richard Krooth during the course of his employment as Community Consultant for the Anti-Defamation League's Southeast regional office during 1963-1964. Rather than directly documenting the activities of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), this collection documents the issues that civil rights workers were concerned with: desegregation, discrimination, suffrage, community organizing, civil rights legislation, and right wing opposition groups. Additionally, there is a small amount of material related to the Madison Free University, a group organized in 1968 by Ann Baxandall Krooth and other students at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, in opposition to the traditional university model of education.
