Summary Note

In the first part of this two-part tape, Yvonne Golden, the coordinator of Opportunity High School in San Francisco, introduces Jim Jones to a gathering at the school. Lauding the school for its work – also evidenced by the fact that the Temple chose to send a hundred young members to the school – Jones presents a check for $200 for its projects. Additional details of this gathering, and other events at Opportunity High, will appear in And Then They Were Gone, a forthcoming book by Judy Bebelaar and Ron Cabral. Full summary of the recording available at Alternative Considerations of Jonestown website, along with the tape transcript.
