Papers, primarily composed of correspondence, writings and notes, and reference materials and clippings, created and collected by a radical activist and former national officer of the Students for a Democratic Society. A variety of papers illustrate Webb's activities with SDS (1962-1967), with the National Conference for New Politics (which he helped organize), the Chicago Jobs or Income Now (JOIN) project, and as executive director of the 1967 Vietnam Summer effort. A major portion of the collection consists of subject files on labor unions; other files contain examples of Webb's writing, including drafts of SDS position papers and college term papers, with notes and reference materials.
