{"value"=>"<p>The most extensive in the collection, this series comprises 5 subseries: Administrative; Publications and Agitational Literature; Parent Participation in Follow Through; Vertical File; and Malcolm X Lovers Network. The material grouped in the first subseries is more conceptual than administrative or operational. Afram's administrative records and personal papers of the author that were to be the basis of a book were destroyed through vandalism and fire at the Afram Farm in upstate New York. The Afram files listed in this inventory are mostly publications and printed matter produced by Afram, some funding proposals, and a sampling of subscription and financial records for 1970 and 1971. Included are several Statements of Capability that detail the organization's origins and early history, an Afram Farm file, directories of black organizations published by Afram, and a compilation of promotional literature that make the case again and again for black support of Afram's efforts. Afram published the monthly National Afrikan Kalendar of Events and Information, renamed Afram Drum by 1974, a directory of national black organizations (1972) and Directory of Afrikanamerican Research Centers (1980). Also represented in the collection is a large body of Afram agitational and ephemeral literature written by the author over a 30 year period (1970- 2000). By January 1974, Afram had produced and distributed 429 \"Thought Stimulators,\" 246 \"Action Stimulators,\" 139 \"Humanizers,\" and countless flyers. Other Afram material released as hand-outs or broadsides bore the names of \"Afram Communiques,\" \"Liberators,\" \"Black Humanizers\" and \"Idea Stimulators.\" Afram operated an Action Library, renamed the Afrikan Reference Library in 1975; the Institute of Afrikan Research for data collection and compilation; and Aframailibrary which handled subscriptions and mail order requests.</p>"}
