{"value"=>"<p>This is by far the largest series, this group has been divided into subseries reflecting some of Williams' many interests during his tenure as President of the Phelps-Stokes Fund. General Correspondence, 1970-1990, organized chronologically, covers Williams' personal appearances and networks as well as the internal and external business of the Fund. Williams' participation in the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, 1971-1987 is covered in a separate subseries, mostly comprised of bound transcripts of hearings held by the Commission on equal opportunity, housing and construction. The third subseries includes correspondence, reports, and minutes from the many Boards and Organizations, 1968-1990, Williams participated in. These organizations run the gamut from Con Edison to the African Fund for Endangered Wildlife, and demonstrate Williams' interest in African-American and African culture as well as his determination to force major corporations to provide equal opportunities for African-Americans. His involvement with the NAACP Task Force on Africa, 1976-1978, a fact-finding trip, is documented by correspondence, scrapbooks, and the report and recommendations which came from the trip. Williams' eventually successful efforts to construct a Ralph Bunche Memorial, 1972-1979 to honor the statesman are amply documented in correspondence covering the construction, funding, and design of the monument, as well as drawings, financial reports, and programs. His continuing interest in foreign policy is represented in correspondence, minutes, and other reports documenting his participation in the Council on Foreign Relations, 1976-1981. Several Phelps Stokes Fund Publications, 1973-1979, regarding Native Americans and relations with Africa are part of this collection. Williams' work for the National News Council, 1979-1981, is chronicled in several bound volumes of correspondence and reports.</p>"}
