Letter from Martha G. Geesa Program Officer Division for Americans Abroad to Mervyn M. Dymally, 1964

This is a series of letters written between Dymally and Martha G. Geesa, Program Officer in the Division for Americans Abroad of the US State Department, in summer 1964. The letters discussed travel fees to various countries in Southern and Eastern Africa, including Uganda, Tanganyika, Nyasaland, Northern Rhodesia and, Kenya, where Dymally was to discuss US electoral procedures. Kenya was the only country to release an itinerary of what Dymally’s visit would look like, from government meetings to TV appearances and visits to local schools. It is unclear whether Dymally ever took this trip; if he did, it was likely his first visit to Africa.
