Particularly noteworthy collection: African-American and African Pamphlet Collection

From the collection's finding aid which was developed by Lisa Perry, March 1994:

This collection consists of primarily twentieth-century materials, written by and about Africans, African-Americans, and Caribbeans on a wide variety of subjects. Some of the more unique and interestingmpamphlets include 1970s university studies on integration, literature in African languages (for example Swahili, Tsonga, Tswana and Xhosa), a transcript of a 1931 worker's trial by the U.S. Communist Party on a race-related incident, in addition to texts of speeches given by American, radical leaders, and by heads of state of African countries.
