Smith with a batch of 2,600 letters and statements from persons across the nation protesting the planned June 25 Skokie march by a neo-Nazi group. Looking on at Smith’s office are John Matzer (standing, right), village manager, and Harvey Schwartz, Skokie corporation counsel. “Whether the march occurs or not, it is my personal opinion that great numbers of people should speak out and let their feelings be known,” said Gardner.

Title A name given to the resource 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.
