{"value"=>"<p>The series, CIVIL RIGHTS ACTIVITIES (1948-68) focuses on two major events: The 1964-65 school boycotts, and the 1968 United Federation of Teachers Strike. The series includes a folder for each of these events, primarily containing clippings and letters. Letters, memos, proposals and minutes from the organizations with which Galamison worked are arranged by association. The NAACP material has been filed with the Brooklyn Committee on YMCA Discrimination, because the two organizations were affiliated. There is little material from Galamison's organizations: the Citywide Committee for Integrated Schools and the Citywide Coalition for Community Control. The Parents' Workshop for Equality folder has three items: a letter from Galamison to Mayor Wagner, an analysis and recommendation written by Galamison to the Board of Education, and a press release quoting Galamison. The final folder contains material from several organizations and concerns the school system of New York City and the prospect of decentralization.</p>"}
