{"value"=>"<p>The <em>Anthologies and Other Publication Projects subseries, 1961-1978, (1.2 lin. ft.),</em>includes selections for the anthology <span class=\"title\">Black Fire: An Anthology of Afro-American Writing</span>(New York, William Morrow & Co., 1968) which Neal co-edited with Amiri Baraka, consisting of the essays, poetry, short stories and drama the co-editors considered for inclusion. Not all pieces submitted were actually published in <span class=\"title\">Black Fire,</span>and the book contains submissions not represented in the collection. The published books of poetry (represented by manuscripts) are <span class=\"title\">Hoodoo Hollerin' Bebop Ghosts</span>(Howard University Press, 1974) and <span class=\"title\">Black Boogaloo: Notes of Black Liberation</span>(San Francisco, Journal of Black Poetry Press, 1969). Many of the poems here such as Neal's <span class=\"title\">Shine</span> series were anthologized in a number of works. Other poems were published once or remain unpublished. The manuscripts for sections of Neal's <span class=\"title\">New Space: Critical Essays on American Culture</span> (published posthumously) can be found in this series. There are also several manuscripts, outlines and proposals for unpublished books including works on jazz and a biography of Max Roach, as well as <span class=\"title\">Black American Music,</span> black cultural criticism, and the social history of popular Afro-American music. In addition, this subseries encompasses the published version of <span class=\"title\">Notes on Black Liberation,</span>articles Neal wrote, and copies of the journal's <span class=\"title\">Confrontation</span>and <span class=\"title\">Extension</span>which he edited. Included are photocopies of some of his published poems, clippings of articles he wrote, and articles in which his work is mentioned.</p>"}
