{"value"=>"<p>Women in Black is a world-wide network of women committed to peace and who are actively opposed to injustice, war, militarism, and other forms of violence. One of the key strategies is challenging the militarist policies of the governments of each member's own country while supporting other Women in Black groups around the world. Women in Black describe themselves not as an organization, but a means of communicating and a formula for action.</p>"}

{"value"=>"<p>The collection contains material from the Women in Black group based in New York City and other groups around the world. The bulk of the files are e-mails printed from the Women in Black list-serv. These e-mails addressed topics of interest and included information about upcoming conferences and workshops. There are reports that document events in individual countries and what those local Women in Black groups were doing to address militarism and humanitarian issues. Also included are fliers, photographs, brochures, research materials, and ephemera. Video recordings (VHS and DVD) are currently unavailable.</p>"}
