OF COUNSEL:
JOSEPH F. CERVENY
June 15, 1978
John N. Matzer, Jr.
Village Manager
5127 Oakton
Skokie, Illinois
Dear Mr. Matzer:
Please be advised that I represent Louis Black.
Pursuant to ordinance 77-5-N-994, an ordinance relating to
Parades and Public Assemblies, specifically Section 27-63,
Mr. Black again makes demand that you, in your capacity as
Village Manager, revoke the letter dated May 25, 1978 for an
alleged demonstration to be held Sunday, June 25, 1978 by the
National Socialist Party of America. We hereby make demand
upon you since facts have been brought to the attention of the
President, Board of Trustees and yourself which show that the
Parade, Public Assembly, or similar activity does not and will
not comply with the standards for the issuance of a permit as
set forth in ordinance 77-5-N-994 and the Laws of the State
of Illinois.
Amongst other violations, the application for permit
tendered to your office dated June 22, 1977 and Aprill 11, 1978
are filed on behalf of the National Socialist Party of America.
No such organization exists and if one so does they are in
violation of Chapter 96, Section 4, Illinois Revised Statutes.
Purther, the application does not contain sufficient information
to comply with Section 27-53 specifically Sections A, B, E, H
and I. Also, we are alleging violation of Section 27-56 specifically Sections A, B, D, E, F, G, H and I. Also we are alleging
violation of Section 27-58 and 27-60.
Please advise my office as to your intent in the
above matter. Mr. Black will take whatever action is necessary
to insure that the ordinances of Skokie and the statutes of the
State of Illinois are complied with. Hopefully we can resolve
this matter without litigation.
J^ery truly yours,
^Btfrton S. OdSXson
Attorney for Louis Black

Attempted Nazi March in Skokie, 1977 and 1978, Digital Collection
Description
An account of the resource
<p>During the late 1970s, a small group of neo-Nazis based in Chicago attempted to hold a rally in the Village of Skokie, Illinois, a community that was known to have a large Jewish population. Local officials resisted the group’s efforts through by passing a series of ordinances aimed at preventing demonstrations or parades by hate groups. The ordinances were ultimately overturned following a series of state and federal lawsuits because they infringed on the group’s First Amendment rights and the neo-Nazis were issued a permit to demonstrate in Skokie. However, instead of facing the growing number of organized counter-demonstrators, the group held rallies in Federal Plaza and in Marquette Park in Chicago. <br /><br />Visit <a title="Attempted Nazi March in Skokie" href="https://skokiehistory.omeka.net/exhibits/show/attempted-nazi-march/timeline">Skokie Public Library's online exhibit</a> to see the events as they unfolded. The library's digital collection, seen here, includes newspaper articles, editorials, recordings from the Skokie Village Board of Trustees meetings, a memoir written by a local clergywoman, and two documentary films.</p>
