An Illustrated History of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU)

From Tom Head, About.com

Much like the ACLU itself, this is a work in progress. The history sections below cover the first half of the ACLU's 86-year history--from 1920 to 1963, including the Baldwin (1920-1950) and Malin (1950-1963) years. Future pages will chronicle the Pemberton (1963-1970), Meier (1970-1978), Glasser (1978-2001), and Romero (2001-) administrations.
