Rosa #240 — Seattle March 1956 NAACP mass protest announcement
A March 1956 Seattle Racial Equality Bulletin (CFRE) advertises an NAACP Mass Protest Meeting for Wednesday, March 28, 8:00 p.m., at Eagles Auditorium, naming Mrs. Rosa Parks of Montgomery as speaker. Announcement ≠ travel, appearance, or delivered speech (GPT-6 Sol).
CFRE’s “Meetings” column lists the NAACP event alongside separate CFRE and other org dates — not to be misdescribed as CFRE’s own March 20 panel. Printed time is 8:00 p.m. (OCR can misread 5:00). Distinct from later Baltimore / Springfield planned appearances. No attendance, travel, or independent contemporaneous news account established here. LOC mss859430179 leaves 2–3 (SHA leaf2 a8066f99… · leaf3 581e7527…).
