520 |a Jim Jacobs was a teacher at Macomb County Community College in Warren, Michigan, and was active in Marxist-based groups in Detroit, in particular the Detroit Marxist Leninist Organization (DMLO), the Detroit Organizing Committee (DOC), and the Detroit Local Center (DLC). This collection contains a broad array of documents as it chronicles the years of an intellectually centered community activist. Of particular interest are the back-and-forth arguments within the Marxist groups concerning organization and hierarchy, true purpose and ideology, and their expectation of members. The collection also contains numerous research papers on Marxist thought, prepared by Jacobs and others for study and discussion, as well as various newspaper clippings recording significant events in Jacobs’ personal, political and intellectual life. Jacobs’ role as one of the plaintiffs in Benkert v. State of Michigan, (the Red Squad case) in which state-sanctioned surveillance of lawful citizen activities was ruled unconstitutional is represented by his personal files of attorney correspondence, legal papers, and articles. The more recent materials in the collection contain many Detroit city government reports, bureaucratic forms, and memoranda, reflecting Jacobs’ increasing involvement with city programs. The time period of the collection is from approximately 1965 to 1984.
