{"value"=>"<p>Forty videos and thirteen audio recordings reflecting seven programs in <span class=\"title\">Harlem in Transition's</span> first series, \"Harlem: People, Institutions, Places.\" These programs were all held at New York Public Library's Countee Cullen branch from October 3rd to November 28th, 1981. Among the notable panelists and speakers in this series are journalist Gil Noble, actor and American Negro Theater founder Frederick O'Neal, poet Sonia Sanchez, and pianist Billy Taylor. The audio and video recordings were made contemporaneously. Because the audio recordings were originally made on cassette tapes, most contain two parts, one for each side of the cassette.</p> <p>The original \"Harlem: People, Institutions, Places\" series comprised eight programs. The second of these, described as a \"walking tour highlighting the diversity of Harlem's architecture\" with guides Kevin Dickey and Ghislaine Hermanuz, was not recorded.</p>"}
