Call Number:	M87

List of Contents


Series:	1. Book Research, 1979-2003 (bulk 1982-1990)
Volume:	4.60 cubic ft.
Arrangement:	This series has been preserved in the order in which it was originally received. It is arranged first by numerical chapters, then by the following subheadings: Observations, Questions, Actions, Milestones, and Lessons, which Warren created as structure for the chapters of his book.
Summary:	This series includes correspondence, news clippings, papers, and reports that Warren collected and organized for writing a book, which he tentatively titled Assessing the Approaches and Effectiveness of Organizing the Black Community. In addition, there are two rough outlines of his proposed book, one of which is from 2003. The chapters within this series contain materials that describe the early days of organizing the "Warren Commission", a political advocacy group that was designed to advocate for the social, economic, and political needs of the African American community and other minority groups. Also included is correspondence that documents the Warren Commission's support for the gubernatorial and presidential campaigns of Michael S. Dukakis, as well as news clippings and campaign material from the overall presidential election. In addition, there is some material on the Warren Commission's efforts toward improving socio-economic conditions for minorities in Massachusetts, including correspondence, news clippings, photographs, proposals and, reports. Warren created 5 different subheadings within the chapters: Observations, Questions, Actions, Milestones and Lessons. The subheadings do not all appear in each chapter. In the Observations section, Warren included material to illustrate his arguments. For instance, the Observations section of Chapter 1 includes correspondence and reports that illustrate the need for advocacy of minority, and particularly African American issues, such as employment of African Americans in Massachusetts state government. The Questions section includes material that Warren believed raised important issues about choices and options for improving of the status of African Americans in Massachusetts. For example, the Questions section of Chapter 2, includes a debate about whether the African American community should support Michael S. Dukakis in his second gubernatorial campaign in 1982. In Chapter 4, there are materials examining the best approach toward social and economic development projects in the Southwest Corridor (namely the Roxbury-Dorchester neighborhoods of Boston). In the Actions section, Warren included material documenting events and programs that were important and or necessary in achieving social, economic, and political justice for minorities. For example, in Chapter 5 there is correspondence from the Human Resource Center, a Massachusetts State office created during Michael S. Dukakis' second gubernatorial term that assisted in health care, employment, and career training issues. In the Milestones section, Warren included material illustrating the attainment of important goals for improving conditions of minorities. Materials in the Milestone section of Chapter 2, for example, include correspondence, membership lists, and other documentation on the creation and organization of the Warren Commission. Finally, in the Lessons section, Warren included material that is indicative of what he learned while he worked to improve social and economic conditions for minorities. In the Lessons section of Chapter 6, he included correspondence and reports related to funding various urban renewal projects in the Southwest Corridor, such as the construction of the Ruggles MBTA Station, the clean-up of Franklin State Park, and the Roxbury Heritage State Park.
