Brotherhood-in-Action (BIA), 1967-1973
Brotherhood-in-Action (BIA) was a non-profit organization that provided educational opportunities to underserved communities. Everett served on the board of BIA, as did Albert A. List, a trustee and benefactor of The New School. When the BIA was experiencing financial difficulties, The New School considered taking over BIA and its building on 40th Street, subsuming BIA's operations under the Center for New York City Affairs. This proposal was presumably not accepted, though there is no indication of the outcome in these files.
