When Alice Embree arrived at the University of Texas at Austin in the fall of 1963, she entered a campus where dormitories remained segregated and student activism was already beginning to challenge the boundaries of institutional authority (Sokolove 2021). Through organizations like the Student Interracial Committee (SIC), which sought the "complete, de facto, elimination of all racial discrimination in Austin, Texas," and Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), Embree and her peers organized demonstrations, distributed literature, and demanded that the university reckon with racial injustice and American military intervention in Vietnam (White 2018). University administrators and state authorities frequently responded to these efforts with surveillance, arrest, and formal discipline, culminating in 1967 when Embree and five fellow students were brought before the Faculty-Student Discipline Committee and placed on probation for failing to "show respect for properly constituted authority" (Abernathy and Peterson 1967; Zamarripa 1967). The primary sources in this collection include flyers and newspapers, propaganda used by the opposition to desegregation, police surveillance materials, and administrative correspondence (Embree Papers 1933–2023).
