The Economic Research and Action Project (ERAP)
About
Economic Research and Action Project was a project of the Students for a Democratic Society that tried to organize white unemployed young people. ERAP got started in Chicago because of a $5000 grant from the United Auto Workers.[1] For the most part, it failed.[2]
Several congressional publications contain information of ERAP, its history, plans and personnel. They are:
- Anatomy of a Revolutionary Movement: "Students for a Democratic Society", Report, House Internal Security Committee, (HISC), October 6, 1970.
- Subversive Influences in Riots, Looting, and Burning, Part ?, House Committee on Un-American Activities, (HCUA) 1967
- Riots, Civil and Criminal Disorders, Hearings, Part 18, Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, (SPIS), June 16 & 17, 1969
