Scope and Contents
Brinton's notes on camp discussion on issues such as labor problems and expectations. The journal begins on August 26, 1942, his first week at Big Flats and contains his detailed assessments. Bayard Rustin, Barnard Walton, and others spoke at the Camp. Brinton presided over camp meetings. He noted efforts to release Japanese Americans from internment camps and that some prisoners had been sent to Chicago. Most of the volume is empty, and the final entry is May 10, 1943, in which he reflected on his leaving the camp and his debt to his aged parents.
