{"value"=>"<p>Throughout the 1950s, Hansberry worked as a journalist for Freedom newspaper and published pieces in other periodicals. Found in Hansberry's Employment files is a portfolio of clippings of articles she wrote during the early days of her writing career in New York City. One article she penned under the nom de plume, \"Paula Jones\". Most of the articles were written for Freedom newspaper, and illustrate themes present in Hansberry's later plays. The file, \"Communism - Labor Youth Defense\", 1950-1954, undated, contains drafts of an article by Hansberry about the Subversive Activities Control Board Hearings on the Labor Youth League in February 1954, reportedly written for the National Guardian, extensive notes about the trial, sketches by Hansberry of the court proceedings, and various articles about communism gathered by either Nemiroff or Gresham-Nemiroff.</p> <p>The Camp Unity file contains reports, letters and remembrances from friends during that period. Additionally there is a dramatic piece that Hansberry wrote with Julian Mayfield (1954) which was to be performed on the occasion of a visit by W. E. B. DuBois to Camp Unity, a camp created as \"a concept of life that promotes pleasure, comfort and culture, built for working people\". Hansberry, a member of Camp Unity, invited DuBois to be a keynote speaker at the camp. Hansberry was also a representative to the \"Montevideo Peace Conference\", 1952, held in Uruguay. This file contains a handwritten speech she presented at the \"Report Back Rally\" in New York City, April 17, 1952. Also found here is a draft of an article about the event, and copies of articles she wrote about the event for Freedom and The Worker.</p>"}
