{"value"=>"<p>Guinier's early writings deal with issues of labor and electoral politics and include an article, \"Careers for Negroes in Civil Service\", published in the March 1940 edition of <em render=\"underline\">Opportunity</em>, the magazine of the National Urban League. The remaining articles in this series were written between 1972 and 1978 and relate to labor and black studies issues. Included are several introductory articles for the Black Studies program at Harvard, \"Black Studies Alive and Well at Harvard\" published in the <em render=\"underline\">Pittsburgh Courier</em>. \"Impact of Unionization on Blacks\", articles on the black experience at Harvard and on the need for a black perspective in history, and his blistering attack, \"Bok's Blacks\" against Harvard's administration and several prominent African- Americans at Harvard. His published and unpublished reviews encompass the work of David Levering Lewis and Nathan Huggins, Boris Bittker's book \"The Case for Black Reparations\", James Earl Jones's 1977 stage performance in the role of Paul Robeson at the Colonial Theater in Boston, and the film \"Kongi's Harvest\". Each file consists of various drafts of the manuscript and some correspondence with publishers. Printed versions of the articles are filed separately in a printed matter file.</p>"}
