Other substantive files are those of the New York School of Social Work Alumni Association (NYSSW), the African-American Election Monitoring Delegation to Nigeria in 1996 and the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture (1968-1986). Wilcox was active in the NYSSW Alumni Association between 1958 and 1962 as a member of its Committee on Social Action and Social Policy. The delegation to observe the 1996 local elections in Nigeria was led by Roy Innis, the controversial chairman of the Congress of Racial Equality and supporter of Nigerian strongman Sani Abacha. As a member of the Save the Schomburg Coalition in 1982 and 1983, Wilcox took part in weekly protest rallies in front of the Schomburg Center, calling for the dismissal of a white archivist as curator of the Center's Manuscripts and Rare Books Division.</p>"}
