Solutions to Violence | Bill Allison | Civil Rights Attorney | July 28, 2025

Today’s Solutions to Violence program features the Civil Rights Attorney Bill Allison. Bill Allison was a cooperative ACLU attorney who began his law career with the Southern Conference Educational Fund (SCEF), an organization closely connected with Carl and Anne Braden. SCEF was a Southern civil rights organization, and so, from the beginning of his career, Allison was involved in civil rights and civil liberties litigation. June 28th, 2025 the Democratic Socialist of American, Louisville Chapter, awarded Bill Allison with a life time achievement award for his service involving civil rights, peace and Justice. States Bill Allison “All of the different freedom efforts that we take for granted today came out of the struggle against segregation that had been going on for a long time.”
