Long Island CORE member

This is a 1966 photo of LI CORE member Gloria Weinberg. She is standing next to Floyd Mckissick at a party thrown at her home to congratulate him on becoming national director of CORE that year. Mrs. Weinberg is notable because she was not only a member of LI CORE as CORE went Black Power, but an officer in the chapter when Mel Jackson became chairman.
