Women's Political Council  

Definition

  • The Women's Political Council (WPC) of Montgomery, Alabama, was an organization of black professional women formed to improve the situation of black citizens. Founded in 1946 by the head of Alabama State College's English Department, Mary Fair Burks, the WPC was initially composed primarily of teachers and professors who encouraged voter registration, organized adult and youth education programs, and sought to include blacks in civic groups.
