Sellers, Frank Crosswaith, Adlai Stevenson, John Haynes Holmes and others regarding speaking engagements or writings; responses to Brown's queries to the American Unitarian Association and letters from other religious organizations and guest speakers at the Hubert Harrison Memorial Church; letters in reply to Brown's charges of racism in the <span class=\"emph\">New York Times</span>and the New York City school system. Church records include Church By-Laws, Marriage Records, program announcements and Prayerbooks. In addition there are three boxes of Sermons (1929-1947, n.d.) written by Brown, arranged alphabetically by title.
