{"value"=>"<p>A <em render=\"bold\">SUBJECT FILES series (1 linear ft.)</em>has been created to reflect the variety of printed material Haughton received and retained regarding numerous political and social issues of the 1960s through 1980s, particularly concerning opposition to racism, nuclear development, and the increasing military budget. There are pamphlets, newsletters, and fliers in the Politics - South Africa folder concerning anti-apartheid movements in the United States and Africa, including the African National Congress, the Unity Movement of South Africa, the Toronto Committee for the Liberation of South Africa, and the South African Military Aid Fund. The Black Political Movements folder also contains miscellaneous pamphlets, newsletters, and fliers from a variety of groups including the Black Panthers, African Nationalist Pioneer Movement, Freedom Now Party, Charter Group for a Pledge of Conscience, Black United Front, and others, as well as prison letters discussing race, politics, and prison life in the late 1960s. The Housing and Tenants Rights folder reflects Haughton's association with Jesse Gray, Director of the Community Housing Council and the Harlem Tenants Union. Other references to Gray may be found in the Rent Strikes folder of the NAACP Series and scattered throughout the Harlem Unemployment Center/Fight Back Series.</p>"}
