This week I completed Series 5 of O’Neal’s papers and started writing the series description. I also began to arrange the files from the next series, University Files, and started to compile a resource list for researchers by highlighting materials found in the Center. The list will consist of materials from manuscript collections, books, microfilm and photographs regarding Paul Robeson.
During our monthly staff meeting, we walked through the exhibition gallery to view a new exhibition titled, A Luta Continua: The Founding of the American Committee on Africa. The exhibition highlights the history of the American Committee on Africa (ACOA) as well as other collections housed at Amistad, which documents the decolonization of African countries. It is also an excellent exhibition for all to view materials on display that examines the global influence of human rights organizations.
