{"value"=>"<p>These scrapbooks (1928-1940) are about Jamaica and contain clippings from a variety of both African American and mainstream newspapers. Coverage includes the 1934 Universal Negro Improvement Association Convention held in Jamaica (titled the International Convention of the Negro Peoples of the World), the decrease of Jamaicans immigrating to the United States for work, the dangers of marijuana, what the Christmas season is like in Jamaica, and the arrest of two Rastafarian leaders. Many clippings are focused on local Jamaican news, including profiles of local artists, athletes and sports teams, school graduates, individuals who are returning to Jamaica after time away, and funerals. There are several recurring columns, including \"Jamaican Proverbs You Should Know\" in the <span class=\"title\">Daily Gleaner</span> and \"General Description of Jamaica\" in the <span class=\"title\">Boston Chronicle</span>.</p>"}
