Scope & content

The James C. Dickson papers cover the years from 1985 to 2008 and are arranged into five series: voting, disabilities, children, health care and The American Association of People with Disabilities. The AAPD series is further subdivided into the following subseries: organization, disabilities, voting, periodicals, media and Needmor. The first four series are James Dickson's personal papers. The AAPD series consists of papers which come directly from the organization itself.

Because Mr. Dickson's personal papers are separate from the AAPD's papers, there is some duplication of materials. This is most evident in the disabilities and the voting sections. The materials which cover the organization of the AAPD are filed under the subseries organization and those have no parallel in the Dickson personal papers. The periodicals subseries which contains magazines which deal with disability issues, the media subseries which contains office diskettes as well as instructional tapes, DVD's and bumper stickers and the Needmor subseries which contains financial reports and other details about the charitable giving organization are also unique to the AAPD series.

Containing faxes, reprints of newspaper articles, brochures, pamphlets, minutes from meetings and congressional hearings, letters, and government forms, diskettes, photographs and CD's, the papers document Dickson's and AAPD's efforts to increase the number of voters with disabilities and improve the quality of life for disabled persons. Much of the material from the AAPD covers the drive for voter equality but there are also official board meeting records, minutes, press releases and budget information which provide significant insight into the origins of the organization, its evolution and the way it runs.

The materials contain information on poll accessibility, black voters, gay and lesbian voters, voting statistics, the motor voter law, election reforms, methods of voting including various electronic systems, law suits, and the registration of potential voters when they apply for food stamps, Medicaid or a driver's license. Other materials contain information on all-terrain wheelchairs, the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial, section 8 housing, signage, and the installation of special tiles in the Washington, D.C. metro to alert blind commuters.

There are also obituaries of major activists for people with disabilities, and reprints of newspaper articles on skiing for the blind, outstanding individuals with disabilities like a blind computer expert, and a court case involving a disabled golfer. Additionally, there are newspaper clippings, and legal and financial documents pertaining to Dickson's attempt to sail across the Atlantic solo. The collection also includes material on other organizing efforts with which Dickson was involved. These include children's rights, specifically the rights of children with disabilities, and medical care, especially the rights of elderly patients and patients with disabilities.

Biographical note

James Charles Dickson was born on January 4, 1946. Blind since the age of seven, Dickson has not let his disability prevent him from experiencing a full life. He graduated from Brown University in 1968 with an A.B. with honors in American Civilization. In 1987, Dickson was the first blind person to sail a boat alone from Rhode Island to Bermuda. Afterward, he was invited to discuss the trip with conservative commentator William F. Buckley, another avid sailor, on Buckley's television show, Crossfire. He has become, not an advocate for people, but an organizer, which he defines as someone who teaches people to do things for themselves.

For the National Organization on Disability, Dickson directed the VOTE!2000 campaign which exceeded its goal by registering and getting to the polls over two million voters with disabilities. He was involved in the writing of and lobbying for the passage of the so called "motor voter" law which makes it the government's responsibility to offer voter registration opportunities to citizens who are receiving services from the departments of motor vehicles and disability agencies in each state. He was co-founder of Project Vote!, a national, non-partisan voter registration and education organization that has been instrumental in registering more than three and a half million African-Americans. He has also organized and directed voter registration and get-out-the-vote drives in twenty-three states. He was the director of the FDR in a Wheelchair Campaign, which lobbied successfully to have a statue of Franklin Roosevelt in his wheelchair placed in the Roosevelt Memorial. With the support of the Sierra Club, Dickson helped mobilize support for the first Clean Air Act. Dickson played an important role in the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights (LCCR) election reform task force and continues to co-chair the LCCR's Help American Vote Act (HAVA) task force.

As Vice President for Governmental Affairs of the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD), Dickson leads the AAPD Disability Vote Project, a coalition of more than thirty-five national disability related organizations that encourage people with disabilities to get out and vote by focusing on election reform, polling place accessibility, voter registration, get-out-the-vote drives, and education of the electorate and elected officials.
