Jabara was born in Mancelona, Michigan in 1940 to Lebanese parents who had immigrated to the United States in the early 20th century, eventually settling in northern Michigan. Jabara took an interest in Middle Eastern affairs throughout his youth and upon graduation from high school in 1958 decided to attend the University of Michigan, largely because the school offered courses in Arabic and had a prominent Arab student population. During his early undergraduate years Jabara determined that in order to learn the Arabic language properly he would have to immerse himself in that culture and so he spent five months living in Cairo, Egypt. He then journeyed by freighter to Lebanon to visit his father's village, where he met his uncle for the first time."," Upon returning from this trip, Jabara's focus centered more on the completion of his undergraduate education at Michigan than on Middle East issues. However, during his years of law school at Wayne State University in Detroit he gradually became more involved with civil rights issues and founded a local chapter of the Civil Rights Research Council. He graduated from law school in 1965 and returned to Lebanon to further develop his Arabic language skills through additional schooling."," Jabara returned to Detroit in 1966 to open his law practice. In 1967, the Arab-Israeli war and the anti-Arab sentiment it created prompted Jabara to become heavily involved with Arab-American issues. Academics of Arab heritage met at the University of Michigan to discuss the political situation and formed the Association of Arab-American University Graduates (AAUG) in 1968. The mission of the AAUG was to promote educational and cultural activities and information about the Arab world and the Arab-American community. Jabara served as the first executive secretary and was later elected president of the group in 1972."," In 1970, Jabara joined the law firm of Lafferty, Reosti, Jabara, Papakhian, Stickgold, James and Smith in Detroit. For the next decade and a half he would fight for the rights of Arabs living or traveling in the United States as well as political activists in general. He did so by challenging the practice of collecting information and maintaining surveillance of Arabs and Arab Americans by such institutions as the Detroit and Michigan State Police, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Secretary of State. Jabara's own case against the FBI, for which he enlisted the help of the ACLU, finally ended in victory in 1984 with the FBI agreeing to destroy his file and acknowledging that collecting the information found within the file violated his constitutional rights."," Throughout his legal career Jabara would take on nationally prominent cases of Arabs and Arab-Americans. Such cases included Sirhan B. Sirhan, convicted in the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy in 1968, and Ziad Abu Eain, wanted for extradition to Israel for a 1979 Palestine Liberation Organization bombing."," Jabara was also involved in the National Lawyer's Guild, an organization founded as an alternative to the more conservative American Bar Association. In 1977 he traveled to Lebanon, Jordan, Israel and the Occupied Territories as part of the NLG's Middle East delegation to report on the condition and treatment of Palestinians living in the Occupied Territories. Jabara became president of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee in 1986. The ADC, founded by former Senator James Abourezk in 1980, devoted itself to the protection of the rights of people of Arab descent and promoting their cultural heritage. Jabara now (2002) works for the ADC Research Institute in Washington D.C. He recently worked as part of the defense team for Omar Ahmad Ali Abdel Rahman, accused of plotting to blow up New York City landmarks and the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center. Jabara resides in New York City.","The collection has been divided into two series: Litigation/Court Cases and Political and Cultural Activities. The many files of correspondence and press clippings document the types of legal and political battles and causes that Jabara has tackled throughout his career. A limited amount of material in the collection is in Arabic, mostly correspondence and press clippings, and is noted as such in the contents list.","Abdeen M.

Crazy Horse began writing, in her words, \"simply because I could ‘speak so\n                well’ like Colin Powell; read and write; and had a favorite band throughout the '90s\n                that got awful press and a lot of disdain: the Black Crowes. As a New Southerner\n                with a brain, I figured it was my job to champion them because they made great Black\n                music.\" The Brooklyn-based writer was formerly the music editor at Creative Loafing\n                in Charlotte, N.C., and has contributed to numerous publications, including  Paper ,  Harp ,  Village Voice ,  Popmatters.com , and the  San Francisco Bay\n                    Guardian .

Crazy Horse challenges Black\n                readers to take pride in the history of Black rock, to \"attempt to conserve it,\n                don't just fritter it away and then lament it being lost forever after.\"","Rob Fields (panelist/interviewee):  Self-described \"Black\n                rock evangelist\" Rob Fields writes about Black rock and Black culture on his blog\n                     Bold as Love , which focuses on exploring,\n                celebrating and evangelizing the growing music genre known as Black rock, Afro-punk\n                or urban alternative (URB ALT). In conjunction with his blog, he runs a live event\n                series,  Bold as Live , which creates new opportunities\n                for audiences to discover Black rock through shows, lectures, and discussions. He\n                has worked professionally in the Black rock scene since the early 1990s, when he\n                became Director of PR for the Black Rock Coalition. Following this, he went into\n                artist management, working for Capitol Records and representing alternative Black\n                artists such as trombonist Josh Roseman and M-Base cofounder Graham Haynes. With his\n                background in marketing, Rob's interest lies in providing context for audiences\n                (particularly Black audiences) to understand and enjoy what they're hearing in Black\n                rock, and to help Black rock artists find ways to make Black rock matter in the\n                marketplace.

He is also affiliated with the American Studies Program. Professor\n                Garofalo is an internationally known scholar of popular music studies who has\n                written numerous articles on music and politics, racism, censorship, and the\n                globalization of the music industry and has lectured widely on a broad range of\n                subjects relating to the operations of the music industry. At CPCS he has been\n                spearheading the Community Media and Technology Major—a cutting edge media and\n                technology program designed to encourage a combination of technical proficiency and\n                social vision. ","Andy Hollinden (moderator/interviewer)  teaches at the\n                Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University, where he has developed several courses\n                on popular music that have become widely favored by students on the campus. Such\n                courses include the history of blues, rock, Frank Zappa, and Jimi Hendrix. In\n                addition to Hollinden's professorial duties, he composes and produces music for\n                videos and has performed and recorded with numerous rock bands.

As one of the moderators for this conference,\n                Hollinden brings a broad historical awareness of the roots of rock music, which is\n                centered in the African American cultural tradition, along with the understanding of\n                musical, racial and political negotiations between Black and White musicians who\n                have been associated with the genre. ","Maureen Mahon (moderator/interviewer)  is an associate\n                professor in the Department of Music at New York University. A cultural\n                anthropologist, her research interests include African American history and culture;\n                the construction and performance of race and gender in music; and the relationship\n                between race, class, generation, and culture.

Her current research on the music and\n                legacy of Black women in rock examines the intersection of gender, race, sexuality,\n                and music production. She has held fellowships from the National Science Foundation,\n                the Ford Foundation, and the American Association of University Women and has taught\n                at Wesleyan University and UCLA. ","Moe Mitchell (panelist/interviewee):  A graduate of Howard\n                University, Moe Mitchell has established himself as an activist and musician in the\n                underground punk scene. His band Cipher, founded in 1996, is committed to opening\n                critical spaces in underground music to reawaken the legacy of dissent in today's\n                hardcore, weaving together elements of hardcore and metal with melodicism and\n                politically radical lyrics to form a provocative, probing treatment of race, gender,\n                and class. Mitchell was one of the four artists profiled in James Spooner's 2003\n                documentary  Afro-punk , which explored issues of race\n                identity within the punk scene. Cipher was formed in 1996 by longtime friends who\n                wanted to bring something new to underground music. Elements of hardcore and metal\n                are woven with politically radical lyrics to form a provocative, probing treatment\n                of race, gender, and class. Cipher's most recent album,  Children of God's Fire  (2005), was released to critical acclaim as \"an\n                unrelenting, neo-revolutionary musical statement, transcending genres and provoking\n                thoughts.\" As one reviewer put it, \"In front of ambitiously bruising slabs of\n                hardcore, Cipher front man Moe Mitchell ponders everything from patriarchy to the\n                pharmaceutical industry.\" Cipher released their second album,  The Joyous Collapse , in late 2009. ","Netic (panelist/interviewee)  is one of the founders as\n                well as the lead vocalist of the Brooklyn-born band Game Rebellion. Before rhyming\n                with Game Rebellion, he was a brain and cognitive sciences major at Massachusetts\n                Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where he enrolled at the\n                age of sixteen. Game Rebellion is an all-Black, all-outta-Brooklyn band whose metal,\n                punk, and rudeboy skanking licks sound as credible and crunchy as their hip-hop\n                lyrics and head nodding bounce. The lyrical prowess and production of Netic provide\n                an unobstructed view of the angst of young rebels everywhere. Game Rebellion has\n                been making big waves on the New York scene for about three years. In that short\n                time they've ventured out even further to slam heads, rock houses and muddy the lily\n                white waters of hip-hop and rock from NYC and Cali to Puerto Rico and the UK. They\n                just may be the best-kept secret in music right now. Their album  Searching for Rick Rubin  (2008) explores classic hip-hop\n                songs originally produced by studio legend Rick Rubin, re-imagined in Game\n                Rebellion’s own style and mixed by J.period. ","James Spooner (panelist/interviewee)  is a filmmaker and\n                fine artist. His award-winning debut feature documentary  Afro-punk  has screened at festivals in the U.S. and abroad, including\n                the Toronto International Film Festival, New York's Urbanworld Film Festival, the\n                American Black Film Festival, Mar del Plata International Film Festival (Argentina),\n                and the London Lesbian and Gay Film Festival. The film has been incorporated in a\n                program for high school students on race identity by the New Museum in New York, and\n                has inspired an Afro-Punk Film Festival at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, which he\n                has been co-curating. He was Resident Video Installation Artist at the Ase Dance\n                Theatre Collective in New York, where he created new media works with a\n                choreographer. Prior to working in film, he was a sculptor, whose work showed in\n                galleries in New York and Seattle. He has also been an editor and an editing\n                consultant. More recently, Spooner made his narrative film debut with  White Lies, Black Sheep  (2007). ","Stew (panelist/interviewee)  is a Tony Award-winning\n                singer/songwriter/playwright from Los Angeles. Together with his collaborator Heidi\n                Rodewald, Stew leads two critically acclaimed bands: The Negro Problem and Stew,\n                both of which were formed in the early 1990s. By the turn of the millennium, The\n                Negro Problem was enjoying considerable success, receiving  Entertainment Weekly 's Album of the Year award in both 2000 and 2002.\n                In 2004, Stew and Heidi Rodewald received the support of the Sundance Institute and\n                The Public Theater to produce the musical  Passing\n                    Strange , which has had successful runs at the Berkeley Repertory\n                Theater, The Public Theater (NYC), and the Belasco Theatre on Broadway. More\n                recently, Spike Lee directed a film version of  Passing\n                    Strange , which is receiving glowing praise at film festivals and aired\n                on PBS in the spring of 2010. As a result of his various creative ventures, Stew has\n                been the recipient of numerous awards, including a 2008 Tony for Best Book of a\n                Musical, two Obie awards for Best New Theater Piece and Best Ensemble as a cast\n                member, and is a four-time Tony nominee. Stew was also the recipient of a 2009 Meet\n                the Composer grant for a new multi-media work  Making\n                    It , commissioned by St. Ann’s Warehouse in New York and scheduled for\n                performance in 2010. Stew’s recorded output includes  Post\n                    Minstrel Syndrome  (1997),  Joys and\n                    Concerns  (1999),  Guest Host  (2000),\n                     The Naked Dutch Painter  (2002),  Welcome Black  (2002),  Something\n                    Deeper than these Changes  (2003), and the cast album of  Passing Strange  (2008). ","Tamar-kali (panelist/interviewee): \n                Songwriter-vocalist-guitarist Tamar-kali came on the New York rock scene around 1993\n                while performing with the band Funkface. Shortly thereafter, she became the front\n                woman for Song of Seven, another New York-based rock band. Eventually, Tamar-kali's\n                strength as a woman in a male-dominated genre led to creative conflict and compelled\n                her toward her own expression as a songwriter and vocalist, which resulted into her\n                eclectic musical style. Her band 5ive Piece incorporates hard-core funk, melodic\n                guitar riffs, dissonant harmonies, even and odd-metered grooves and unorthodox song\n                forms. In addition to the instrumental styles of 5ive Piece, Tamar-kali's diverse\n                vocal range allows her to execute warm, round, dark and raspy tones from low to high\n                registers upon demand. She also performs with the string quartet Psycho Chamber\n                Ensemble, which performs renditions of songs by 5ive Piece as well as those arranged\n                and composed specifically for strings by Tamar-kali. Along with leading her diverse\n                ensembles and heading up her own production company, Flaming Yoni Productions,\n                Tamar-kali has worked with other artists in hip-hop and rock such as Outkast and\n                Fishbone. In addition to appearing in the film  Afro-punk , Tamar-kali has been featured in  Vibe ,  Fader  and  Village Voice  magazines. ","Greg Tate (panelist)  is an American author who has spent\n                the last two decades formulating a critical language that has redefined African\n                American cultural theory and writing. An essayist and long time staff writer for\n                     Village Voice , Tate has published widely, with\n                writings on art, music, and culture appearing in  The New York\n                    Times ,  Rolling Stone ,  The Washington Post ,  Spin ,  Artforum ,  The\n                    Nation ,  DownBeat , and Africa-based\n                magazines such as  Glendora Review  and  Chimurenga . The impact of Tate's writing lies in the\n                seminal productive tensions he navigates between post-structural theory and Black\n                cultural nationalism, academia and street culture. Tate has been inspired by Black\n                innovators such as Miles Davis, Jimi Hendrix, Sly Stone, George Clinton, and the\n                artist Jean-Michel Basquiat. Furthermore, Tate has defied fixed notions about what\n                constitutes authentic Black culture, and has inscribed a new radical trajectory that\n                is simultaneously rebellious yet intelligently written. Now in his 50s, Tate\n                continues to challenge cultural hegemony, writing on everything from hip-hop to\n                     YouTube . His books include  Flyboy in the Buttermilk  (1992),  Midnight\n                    Lightning : Jimi Hendrix and the Black Experience  (2003), and  Everything but the Burden : What White People Are Taking from\n                    Black Culture  (2003). He is also a founding member of the Black Rock\n                Coalition and the conductor and music director of Burnt Sugar, a band that fuses\n                jazz, rock, funk, and African music in a lyrical, exploratory and improvisational\n                manner. ","Kamara Thomas (panelist/interviewee),  along with Matt\n                Whyte, is one of the founding members of the band Earl Greyhound. Living and working\n                in New York City, the pair began performing regularly as a duo. All along, they were\n                crafting the sound and songs that would form the foundation for a colossal rock band\n                influenced by the strident English three- and four-pieces of the '70s, the dark pop\n                and heavy grooves of the '90s, and the transcendental, noisy acid sounds of modern\n                rock. The band's first full-length album,  Soft\n                    Targets , was recorded in Los Angeles and Brooklyn in 2005 and earned the\n                group many fans and critical acclaim from publications including  The New Yorker ,  Spin ,\n                     Rolling Stone ,  Brooklyn\n                    Vegan , and  Pitchfork . Even more so, the\n                band's live show quickly drew heaps of attention and gained a steady reputation\n                among critics and fans alike as a veritable rock-n-roll wrecking ball. Earl\n                Greyhound toured relentlessly for the next two years all over the U.S., Canada, and\n                Japan, and autumn 2007 was spent playing theatres as openers for the band's good\n                friend Shooter Jennings, as well as for Soundgarden and Audioslave's Chris Cornell.\n                In spring 2010 Earl Greyhound released their sophomore album  Suspicious Package .

Life for Thomas\n                started out as an abandoned biracial child in South Korea, where she lived in an\n                orphanage until an American family adopted her into the States at five. She began\n                studying organ at the age of six and, as fate would have it, Thomas was given her\n                first music lessons and introduction to the organ by the great Jimmy Smith. Thomas\n                abandoned dental school at Ohio State to attend music school in Los Angeles. After\n                time in all-female groups such as School Boy Crush, Software, and PMS, Thomas formed\n                Crank, a 3-piece hard rock band that shared the stage with Ice T and Body Count,\n                Fishbone, and Macy Gray. Thomas has also been hired out as a guitarist to several\n                funk and R\u0026B bands, notably doubling on guitar and bass in the Grammy-winning\n                band A Taste of Honey. She took second place in the 7th annual Jimi Hendrix contest,\n                and played in Japan, France, and New York at various music festivals and events\n                including the Manhattan Music Center. Thomas currently performs with her band The\n                Blues Church. ","Linda Tillery (panelist/interviewee):  Before becoming a\n                prominent figure in women's music in the 1990s, San Francisco native Linda Tillery\n                began her singing career in the 1960s with the gender and racially integrated\n                psychedelic/soul band The Loading Zone, which was modeled somewhat after Sly \u0026\n                the Family Stone. After two albums with that band, Tillery released her solo debut,\n                     Sweet Linda Divine , on CBS in 1970 to\n                enthusiastic reviews and high praise. She spent most of the 1970s singing and\n                playing drums on over forty albums, including those by Mary Watkins and Teresa\n                Trull. Having become a staff musician and producer at Olivia Records, Tillery\n                released her second solo album, a self-titled effort, on the label in 1978,\n                garnering a Bay Area Music Award for Best Independently Produced Album. Tillery has\n                twice gone on to win Bay Area Jazz awards for Outstanding Female Vocalist. In\n                subsequent years, Tillery collaborated with female musical powerhouses including\n                June Millington, Deidre McCalla, Barbara Higbie, and Margie Adam, as well as on the\n                Olivia Records 10th anniversary album,  Meg/Cris Live at\n                    Carnegie  (1983). In 1985, Tillery released  Secrets  on her own 411 label which returned her to center stage. In\n                recent years, she has assembled a large band, Skin Tight, which plays jazzy, funky\n                blues. She has also performed with the ZaSu Pitts Memorial Orchestra and has\n                branched out into radio, film, theater, and television commercials. She has worked\n                for the National Endowment for the Arts and appeared with artists ranging from\n                Santana, Kenny Loggins, and Huey Lewis to the Turtle Island String Quartet, Bobby\n                McFerrin, and Holly Near. In 1992, Tillery created the Cultural Heritage Choir as an\n                outlet for her desire to perform the traditional spiritual music of African American\n                slaves and their descendants. ","Ike Willis (panelist/interviewee)  first met Frank Zappa\n                while studying political science at Washington University. Willis volunteered to\n                help with the concert committee just so he could get a backstage pass to meet Frank\n                Zappa. As a result of this meeting in 1978, Willis became Zappa's lead singer and\n                rhythm guitarist for nearly fifteen years. In addition to touring, Willis performed\n                on Zappa's albums  Joe's Garage ,  Tinsel Town Rebellion , and  You\n                    Are What You Is . He also played the title character and narrator in\n                Zappa's off-Broadway musical,  Thing-Fish . Willis'\n                distinct baritone vocals coupled with his melodic guitar style continues to solidify\n                the musical legacy of Frank Zappa, which Willis promotes not only through his own\n                music, but also via performances with ensembles around the world that perform Frank\n                Zappa's music, such as Bogus Pomp, Project/Object, Ugly Radio Rebellion, and The\n                Central Scrutinizer Band.

Cipher's most recent album, \u003ctitle render=\"italic\"\u003eChildren of God's Fire\u003c/title\u003e (2005), was released to critical acclaim as \"an\n                unrelenting, neo-revolutionary musical statement, transcending genres and provoking\n                thoughts.\" As one reviewer put it, \"In front of ambitiously bruising slabs of\n                hardcore, Cipher front man Moe Mitchell ponders everything from patriarchy to the\n                pharmaceutical industry.\" Cipher released their second album, \u003ctitle render=\"italic\"\u003eThe Joyous Collapse\u003c/title\u003e, in late 2009. \u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003e\n            \u003cemph render=\"bold\"\u003eNetic (panelist/interviewee)\u003c/emph\u003e is one of the founders as\n                well as the lead vocalist of the Brooklyn-born band Game Rebellion.

Shortly thereafter, she became the front\n                woman for Song of Seven, another New York-based rock band. Eventually, Tamar-kali's\n                strength as a woman in a male-dominated genre led to creative conflict and compelled\n                her toward her own expression as a songwriter and vocalist, which resulted into her\n                eclectic musical style. Her band 5ive Piece incorporates hard-core funk, melodic\n                guitar riffs, dissonant harmonies, even and odd-metered grooves and unorthodox song\n                forms.

Tate has been inspired by Black\n                innovators such as Miles Davis, Jimi Hendrix, Sly Stone, George Clinton, and the\n                artist Jean-Michel Basquiat. Furthermore, Tate has defied fixed notions about what\n                constitutes authentic Black culture, and has inscribed a new radical trajectory that\n                is simultaneously rebellious yet intelligently written. Now in his 50s, Tate\n                continues to challenge cultural hegemony, writing on everything from hip-hop to\n                    \u003ctitle render=\"italic\"\u003eYouTube\u003c/title\u003e.

His band Cipher, founded in 1996, is committed to opening\n                critical spaces in underground music to reawaken the legacy of dissent in today's\n                hardcore, weaving together elements of hardcore and metal with melodicism and\n                politically radical lyrics to form a provocative, probing treatment of race, gender,\n                and class. Mitchell was one of the four artists profiled in James Spooner's 2003\n                documentary  Afro-punk , which explored issues of race\n                identity within the punk scene.

","Tamar-kali (panelist/interviewee): \n                Songwriter-vocalist-guitarist Tamar-kali came on the New York rock scene around 1993\n                while performing with the band Funkface. Shortly thereafter, she became the front\n                woman for Song of Seven, another New York-based rock band. Eventually, Tamar-kali's\n                strength as a woman in a male-dominated genre led to creative conflict and compelled\n                her toward her own expression as a songwriter and vocalist, which resulted into her\n                eclectic musical style. Her band 5ive Piece incorporates hard-core funk, melodic\n                guitar riffs, dissonant harmonies, even and odd-metered grooves and unorthodox song\n                forms. In addition to the instrumental styles of 5ive Piece, Tamar-kali's diverse\n                vocal range allows her to execute warm, round, dark and raspy tones from low to high\n                registers upon demand. She also performs with the string quartet Psycho Chamber\n                Ensemble, which performs renditions of songs by 5ive Piece as well as those arranged\n                and composed specifically for strings by Tamar-kali. Along with leading her diverse\n                ensembles and heading up her own production company, Flaming Yoni Productions,\n                Tamar-kali has worked with other artists in hip-hop and rock such as Outkast and\n                Fishbone. In addition to appearing in the film  Afro-punk , Tamar-kali has been featured in  Vibe ,  Fader  and  Village Voice  magazines. ","Greg Tate (panelist)  is an American author who has spent\n                the last two decades formulating a critical language that has redefined African\n                American cultural theory and writing. An essayist and long time staff writer for\n                     Village Voice , Tate has published widely, with\n                writings on art, music, and culture appearing in  The New York\n                    Times ,  Rolling Stone ,  The Washington Post ,  Spin ,  Artforum ,  The\n                    Nation ,  DownBeat , and Africa-based\n                magazines such as  Glendora Review  and  Chimurenga . The impact of Tate's writing lies in the\n                seminal productive tensions he navigates between post-structural theory and Black\n                cultural nationalism, academia and street culture. Tate has been inspired by Black\n                innovators such as Miles Davis, Jimi Hendrix, Sly Stone, George Clinton, and the\n                artist Jean-Michel Basquiat. Furthermore, Tate has defied fixed notions about what\n                constitutes authentic Black culture, and has inscribed a new radical trajectory that\n                is simultaneously rebellious yet intelligently written. Now in his 50s, Tate\n                continues to challenge cultural hegemony, writing on everything from hip-hop to\n                     YouTube . His books include  Flyboy in the Buttermilk  (1992),  Midnight\n                    Lightning : Jimi Hendrix and the Black Experience  (2003), and  Everything but the Burden : What White People Are Taking from\n                    Black Culture  (2003).

Living and working\n                in New York City, the pair began performing regularly as a duo. All along, they were\n                crafting the sound and songs that would form the foundation for a colossal rock band\n                influenced by the strident English three- and four-pieces of the '70s, the dark pop\n                and heavy grooves of the '90s, and the transcendental, noisy acid sounds of modern\n                rock. The band's first full-length album,  Soft\n                    Targets , was recorded in Los Angeles and Brooklyn in 2005 and earned the\n                group many fans and critical acclaim from publications including  The New Yorker ,  Spin ,\n                     Rolling Stone ,  Brooklyn\n                    Vegan , and  Pitchfork . Even more so, the\n                band's live show quickly drew heaps of attention and gained a steady reputation\n                among critics and fans alike as a veritable rock-n-roll wrecking ball. Earl\n                Greyhound toured relentlessly for the next two years all over the U.S., Canada, and\n                Japan, and autumn 2007 was spent playing theatres as openers for the band's good\n                friend Shooter Jennings, as well as for Soundgarden and Audioslave's Chris Cornell.\n                In spring 2010 Earl Greyhound released their sophomore album  Suspicious Package .

She began\n                studying organ at the age of six and, as fate would have it, Thomas was given her\n                first music lessons and introduction to the organ by the great Jimmy Smith.

Jabara was born in Mancelona, Michigan in 1940 to Lebanese parents who had immigrated to the United States in the early 20th century, eventually settling in northern Michigan. Jabara took an interest in Middle Eastern affairs throughout his youth and upon graduation from high school in 1958 decided to attend the University of Michigan, largely because the school offered courses in Arabic and had a prominent Arab student population. During his early undergraduate years Jabara determined that in order to learn the Arabic language properly he would have to immerse himself in that culture and so he spent five months living in Cairo, Egypt. He then journeyed by freighter to Lebanon to visit his father's village, where he met his uncle for the first time."," Upon returning from this trip, Jabara's focus centered more on the completion of his undergraduate education at Michigan than on Middle East issues. However, during his years of law school at Wayne State University in Detroit he gradually became more involved with civil rights issues and founded a local chapter of the Civil Rights Research Council. He graduated from law school in 1965 and returned to Lebanon to further develop his Arabic language skills through additional schooling."," Jabara returned to Detroit in 1966 to open his law practice. In 1967, the Arab-Israeli war and the anti-Arab sentiment it created prompted Jabara to become heavily involved with Arab-American issues. Academics of Arab heritage met at the University of Michigan to discuss the political situation and formed the Association of Arab-American University Graduates (AAUG) in 1968. The mission of the AAUG was to promote educational and cultural activities and information about the Arab world and the Arab-American community. Jabara served as the first executive secretary and was later elected president of the group in 1972."," In 1970, Jabara joined the law firm of Lafferty, Reosti, Jabara, Papakhian, Stickgold, James and Smith in Detroit. For the next decade and a half he would fight for the rights of Arabs living or traveling in the United States as well as political activists in general. He did so by challenging the practice of collecting information and maintaining surveillance of Arabs and Arab Americans by such institutions as the Detroit and Michigan State Police, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Secretary of State. Jabara's own case against the FBI, for which he enlisted the help of the ACLU, finally ended in victory in 1984 with the FBI agreeing to destroy his file and acknowledging that collecting the information found within the file violated his constitutional rights."," Throughout his legal career Jabara would take on nationally prominent cases of Arabs and Arab-Americans. Such cases included Sirhan B. Sirhan, convicted in the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy in 1968, and Ziad Abu Eain, wanted for extradition to Israel for a 1979 Palestine Liberation Organization bombing."," Jabara was also involved in the National Lawyer's Guild, an organization founded as an alternative to the more conservative American Bar Association. In 1977 he traveled to Lebanon, Jordan, Israel and the Occupied Territories as part of the NLG's Middle East delegation to report on the condition and treatment of Palestinians living in the Occupied Territories. Jabara became president of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee in 1986. The ADC, founded by former Senator James Abourezk in 1980, devoted itself to the protection of the rights of people of Arab descent and promoting their cultural heritage. Jabara now (2002) works for the ADC Research Institute in Washington D.C. He recently worked as part of the defense team for Omar Ahmad Ali Abdel Rahman, accused of plotting to blow up New York City landmarks and the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center. Jabara resides in New York City.","The collection has been divided into two series: Litigation/Court Cases and Political and Cultural Activities. The many files of correspondence and press clippings document the types of legal and political battles and causes that Jabara has tackled throughout his career. A limited amount of material in the collection is in Arabic, mostly correspondence and press clippings, and is noted as such in the contents list.","Abdeen M. Jabara reserves copyright during his lifetime. Patrons are responsible for determining the appropriate use or reuse of materials.","New York attorney originally based in Detroit. Jabara was concerned with issues of civil rights of Arab Americans and the rights of Arabs living or traveling in the United States.

Jabara was born in Mancelona, Michigan in 1940 to Lebanese parents who had immigrated to the United States in the early 20th century, eventually settling in northern Michigan. Jabara took an interest in Middle Eastern affairs throughout his youth and upon graduation from high school in 1958 decided to attend the University of Michigan, largely because the school offered courses in Arabic and had a prominent Arab student population. During his early undergraduate years Jabara determined that in order to learn the Arabic language properly he would have to immerse himself in that culture and so he spent five months living in Cairo, Egypt. He then journeyed by freighter to Lebanon to visit his father's village, where he met his uncle for the first time."," Upon returning from this trip, Jabara's focus centered more on the completion of his undergraduate education at Michigan than on Middle East issues.

","Moe Mitchell (panelist/interviewee):  A graduate of Howard\n                University, Moe Mitchell has established himself as an activist and musician in the\n                underground punk scene. His band Cipher, founded in 1996, is committed to opening\n                critical spaces in underground music to reawaken the legacy of dissent in today's\n                hardcore, weaving together elements of hardcore and metal with melodicism and\n                politically radical lyrics to form a provocative, probing treatment of race, gender,\n                and class. Mitchell was one of the four artists profiled in James Spooner's 2003\n                documentary  Afro-punk , which explored issues of race\n                identity within the punk scene. Cipher was formed in 1996 by longtime friends who\n                wanted to bring something new to underground music. Elements of hardcore and metal\n                are woven with politically radical lyrics to form a provocative, probing treatment\n                of race, gender, and class. Cipher's most recent album,  Children of God's Fire  (2005), was released to critical acclaim as \"an\n                unrelenting, neo-revolutionary musical statement, transcending genres and provoking\n                thoughts.\" As one reviewer put it, \"In front of ambitiously bruising slabs of\n                hardcore, Cipher front man Moe Mitchell ponders everything from patriarchy to the\n                pharmaceutical industry.\" Cipher released their second album,  The Joyous Collapse , in late 2009. ","Netic (panelist/interviewee)  is one of the founders as\n                well as the lead vocalist of the Brooklyn-born band Game Rebellion. Before rhyming\n                with Game Rebellion, he was a brain and cognitive sciences major at Massachusetts\n                Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where he enrolled at the\n                age of sixteen. Game Rebellion is an all-Black, all-outta-Brooklyn band whose metal,\n                punk, and rudeboy skanking licks sound as credible and crunchy as their hip-hop\n                lyrics and head nodding bounce. The lyrical prowess and production of Netic provide\n                an unobstructed view of the angst of young rebels everywhere. Game Rebellion has\n                been making big waves on the New York scene for about three years. In that short\n                time they've ventured out even further to slam heads, rock houses and muddy the lily\n                white waters of hip-hop and rock from NYC and Cali to Puerto Rico and the UK. They\n                just may be the best-kept secret in music right now. Their album  Searching for Rick Rubin  (2008) explores classic hip-hop\n                songs originally produced by studio legend Rick Rubin, re-imagined in Game\n                Rebellion’s own style and mixed by J.period.

By the turn of the millennium, The\n                Negro Problem was enjoying considerable success, receiving  Entertainment Weekly 's Album of the Year award in both 2000 and 2002.\n                In 2004, Stew and Heidi Rodewald received the support of the Sundance Institute and\n                The Public Theater to produce the musical  Passing\n                    Strange , which has had successful runs at the Berkeley Repertory\n                Theater, The Public Theater (NYC), and the Belasco Theatre on Broadway. More\n                recently, Spike Lee directed a film version of  Passing\n                    Strange , which is receiving glowing praise at film festivals and aired\n                on PBS in the spring of 2010. As a result of his various creative ventures, Stew has\n                been the recipient of numerous awards, including a 2008 Tony for Best Book of a\n                Musical, two Obie awards for Best New Theater Piece and Best Ensemble as a cast\n                member, and is a four-time Tony nominee. Stew was also the recipient of a 2009 Meet\n                the Composer grant for a new multi-media work  Making\n                    It , commissioned by St. Ann’s Warehouse in New York and scheduled for\n                performance in 2010. Stew’s recorded output includes  Post\n                    Minstrel Syndrome  (1997),  Joys and\n                    Concerns  (1999),  Guest Host  (2000),\n                     The Naked Dutch Painter  (2002),  Welcome Black  (2002),  Something\n                    Deeper than these Changes  (2003), and the cast album of  Passing Strange  (2008). ","Tamar-kali (panelist/interviewee): \n                Songwriter-vocalist-guitarist Tamar-kali came on the New York rock scene around 1993\n                while performing with the band Funkface. Shortly thereafter, she became the front\n                woman for Song of Seven, another New York-based rock band. Eventually, Tamar-kali's\n                strength as a woman in a male-dominated genre led to creative conflict and compelled\n                her toward her own expression as a songwriter and vocalist, which resulted into her\n                eclectic musical style. Her band 5ive Piece incorporates hard-core funk, melodic\n                guitar riffs, dissonant harmonies, even and odd-metered grooves and unorthodox song\n                forms. In addition to the instrumental styles of 5ive Piece, Tamar-kali's diverse\n                vocal range allows her to execute warm, round, dark and raspy tones from low to high\n                registers upon demand. She also performs with the string quartet Psycho Chamber\n                Ensemble, which performs renditions of songs by 5ive Piece as well as those arranged\n                and composed specifically for strings by Tamar-kali. Along with leading her diverse\n                ensembles and heading up her own production company, Flaming Yoni Productions,\n                Tamar-kali has worked with other artists in hip-hop and rock such as Outkast and\n                Fishbone. In addition to appearing in the film  Afro-punk , Tamar-kali has been featured in  Vibe ,  Fader  and  Village Voice  magazines. ","Greg Tate (panelist)  is an American author who has spent\n                the last two decades formulating a critical language that has redefined African\n                American cultural theory and writing. An essayist and long time staff writer for\n                     Village Voice , Tate has published widely, with\n                writings on art, music, and culture appearing in  The New York\n                    Times ,  Rolling Stone ,  The Washington Post ,  Spin ,  Artforum ,  The\n                    Nation ,  DownBeat , and Africa-based\n                magazines such as  Glendora Review  and  Chimurenga . The impact of Tate's writing lies in the\n                seminal productive tensions he navigates between post-structural theory and Black\n                cultural nationalism, academia and street culture. Tate has been inspired by Black\n                innovators such as Miles Davis, Jimi Hendrix, Sly Stone, George Clinton, and the\n                artist Jean-Michel Basquiat. Furthermore, Tate has defied fixed notions about what\n                constitutes authentic Black culture, and has inscribed a new radical trajectory that\n                is simultaneously rebellious yet intelligently written. Now in his 50s, Tate\n                continues to challenge cultural hegemony, writing on everything from hip-hop to\n                     YouTube . His books include  Flyboy in the Buttermilk  (1992),  Midnight\n                    Lightning : Jimi Hendrix and the Black Experience  (2003), and  Everything but the Burden : What White People Are Taking from\n                    Black Culture  (2003). He is also a founding member of the Black Rock\n                Coalition and the conductor and music director of Burnt Sugar, a band that fuses\n                jazz, rock, funk, and African music in a lyrical, exploratory and improvisational\n                manner. ","Kamara Thomas (panelist/interviewee),  along with Matt\n                Whyte, is one of the founding members of the band Earl Greyhound. Living and working\n                in New York City, the pair began performing regularly as a duo. All along, they were\n                crafting the sound and songs that would form the foundation for a colossal rock band\n                influenced by the strident English three- and four-pieces of the '70s, the dark pop\n                and heavy grooves of the '90s, and the transcendental, noisy acid sounds of modern\n                rock. The band's first full-length album,  Soft\n                    Targets , was recorded in Los Angeles and Brooklyn in 2005 and earned the\n                group many fans and critical acclaim from publications including  The New Yorker ,  Spin ,\n                     Rolling Stone ,  Brooklyn\n                    Vegan , and  Pitchfork . Even more so, the\n                band's live show quickly drew heaps of attention and gained a steady reputation\n                among critics and fans alike as a veritable rock-n-roll wrecking ball. Earl\n                Greyhound toured relentlessly for the next two years all over the U.S., Canada, and\n                Japan, and autumn 2007 was spent playing theatres as openers for the band's good\n                friend Shooter Jennings, as well as for Soundgarden and Audioslave's Chris Cornell.\n                In spring 2010 Earl Greyhound released their sophomore album  Suspicious Package . ","Suzanne Thomas (panelist/interviewee):  A real deal blues\n                guitarist and vocalist, Suzanne Thomas no stranger to the blues. Life for Thomas\n                started out as an abandoned biracial child in South Korea, where she lived in an\n                orphanage until an American family adopted her into the States at five. She began\n                studying organ at the age of six and, as fate would have it, Thomas was given her\n                first music lessons and introduction to the organ by the great Jimmy Smith. Thomas\n                abandoned dental school at Ohio State to attend music school in Los Angeles. After\n                time in all-female groups such as School Boy Crush, Software, and PMS, Thomas formed\n                Crank, a 3-piece hard rock band that shared the stage with Ice T and Body Count,\n                Fishbone, and Macy Gray. Thomas has also been hired out as a guitarist to several\n                funk and R\u0026B bands, notably doubling on guitar and bass in the Grammy-winning\n                band A Taste of Honey. She took second place in the 7th annual Jimi Hendrix contest,\n                and played in Japan, France, and New York at various music festivals and events\n                including the Manhattan Music Center. Thomas currently performs with her band The\n                Blues Church. ","Linda Tillery (panelist/interviewee):  Before becoming a\n                prominent figure in women's music in the 1990s, San Francisco native Linda Tillery\n                began her singing career in the 1960s with the gender and racially integrated\n                psychedelic/soul band The Loading Zone, which was modeled somewhat after Sly \u0026\n                the Family Stone. After two albums with that band, Tillery released her solo debut,\n                     Sweet Linda Divine , on CBS in 1970 to\n                enthusiastic reviews and high praise. She spent most of the 1970s singing and\n                playing drums on over forty albums, including those by Mary Watkins and Teresa\n                Trull. Having become a staff musician and producer at Olivia Records, Tillery\n                released her second solo album, a self-titled effort, on the label in 1978,\n                garnering a Bay Area Music Award for Best Independently Produced Album. Tillery has\n                twice gone on to win Bay Area Jazz awards for Outstanding Female Vocalist. In\n                subsequent years, Tillery collaborated with female musical powerhouses including\n                June Millington, Deidre McCalla, Barbara Higbie, and Margie Adam, as well as on the\n                Olivia Records 10th anniversary album,  Meg/Cris Live at\n                    Carnegie  (1983). In 1985, Tillery released  Secrets  on her own 411 label which returned her to center stage. In\n                recent years, she has assembled a large band, Skin Tight, which plays jazzy, funky\n                blues. She has also performed with the ZaSu Pitts Memorial Orchestra and has\n                branched out into radio, film, theater, and television commercials. She has worked\n                for the National Endowment for the Arts and appeared with artists ranging from\n                Santana, Kenny Loggins, and Huey Lewis to the Turtle Island String Quartet, Bobby\n                McFerrin, and Holly Near. In 1992, Tillery created the Cultural Heritage Choir as an\n                outlet for her desire to perform the traditional spiritual music of African American\n                slaves and their descendants. ","Ike Willis (panelist/interviewee)  first met Frank Zappa\n                while studying political science at Washington University. Willis volunteered to\n                help with the concert committee just so he could get a backstage pass to meet Frank\n                Zappa. As a result of this meeting in 1978, Willis became Zappa's lead singer and\n                rhythm guitarist for nearly fifteen years. In addition to touring, Willis performed\n                on Zappa's albums  Joe's Garage ,  Tinsel Town Rebellion , and  You\n                    Are What You Is . He also played the title character and narrator in\n                Zappa's off-Broadway musical,  Thing-Fish . Willis'\n                distinct baritone vocals coupled with his melodic guitar style continues to solidify\n                the musical legacy of Frank Zappa, which Willis promotes not only through his own\n                music, but also via performances with ensembles around the world that perform Frank\n                Zappa's music, such as Bogus Pomp, Project/Object, Ugly Radio Rebellion, and The\n                Central Scrutinizer Band. ","On November 13th and 14th, the Archives of African American Music and Culture (AAAMC)\n                hosted a two-day conference on Black rock on the Indiana University-Bloomington\n                campus.

The main component of the\n                conference was a set of three panels, each exploring one of the following topics: 1)\n                the conceptualization and origins of Black rock; 2) the politics of Black rock; 3)\n                the face of Black rock in the 21st century.","The core panelists were those artists considered to be innovators and practitioners\n                of Black rock in the United States, including representatives from the East and West\n                Coasts such as Linda Tillery, Ike Willis, Tamar-kali, and Netic.

Along with leading her diverse\n                ensembles and heading up her own production company, Flaming Yoni Productions,\n                Tamar-kali has worked with other artists in hip-hop and rock such as Outkast and\n                Fishbone. In addition to appearing in the film  Afro-punk , Tamar-kali has been featured in  Vibe ,  Fader  and  Village Voice  magazines. ","Greg Tate (panelist)  is an American author who has spent\n                the last two decades formulating a critical language that has redefined African\n                American cultural theory and writing. An essayist and long time staff writer for\n                     Village Voice , Tate has published widely, with\n                writings on art, music, and culture appearing in  The New York\n                    Times ,  Rolling Stone ,  The Washington Post ,  Spin ,  Artforum ,  The\n                    Nation ,  DownBeat , and Africa-based\n                magazines such as  Glendora Review  and  Chimurenga . The impact of Tate's writing lies in the\n                seminal productive tensions he navigates between post-structural theory and Black\n                cultural nationalism, academia and street culture. Tate has been inspired by Black\n                innovators such as Miles Davis, Jimi Hendrix, Sly Stone, George Clinton, and the\n                artist Jean-Michel Basquiat. Furthermore, Tate has defied fixed notions about what\n                constitutes authentic Black culture, and has inscribed a new radical trajectory that\n                is simultaneously rebellious yet intelligently written. Now in his 50s, Tate\n                continues to challenge cultural hegemony, writing on everything from hip-hop to\n                     YouTube . His books include  Flyboy in the Buttermilk  (1992),  Midnight\n                    Lightning : Jimi Hendrix and the Black Experience  (2003), and  Everything but the Burden : What White People Are Taking from\n                    Black Culture  (2003). He is also a founding member of the Black Rock\n                Coalition and the conductor and music director of Burnt Sugar, a band that fuses\n                jazz, rock, funk, and African music in a lyrical, exploratory and improvisational\n                manner. ","Kamara Thomas (panelist/interviewee),  along with Matt\n                Whyte, is one of the founding members of the band Earl Greyhound. Living and working\n                in New York City, the pair began performing regularly as a duo. All along, they were\n                crafting the sound and songs that would form the foundation for a colossal rock band\n                influenced by the strident English three- and four-pieces of the '70s, the dark pop\n                and heavy grooves of the '90s, and the transcendental, noisy acid sounds of modern\n                rock. The band's first full-length album,  Soft\n                    Targets , was recorded in Los Angeles and Brooklyn in 2005 and earned the\n                group many fans and critical acclaim from publications including  The New Yorker ,  Spin ,\n                     Rolling Stone ,  Brooklyn\n                    Vegan , and  Pitchfork . Even more so, the\n                band's live show quickly drew heaps of attention and gained a steady reputation\n                among critics and fans alike as a veritable rock-n-roll wrecking ball. Earl\n                Greyhound toured relentlessly for the next two years all over the U.S., Canada, and\n                Japan, and autumn 2007 was spent playing theatres as openers for the band's good\n                friend Shooter Jennings, as well as for Soundgarden and Audioslave's Chris Cornell.\n                In spring 2010 Earl Greyhound released their sophomore album  Suspicious Package . ","Suzanne Thomas (panelist/interviewee):  A real deal blues\n                guitarist and vocalist, Suzanne Thomas no stranger to the blues. Life for Thomas\n                started out as an abandoned biracial child in South Korea, where she lived in an\n                orphanage until an American family adopted her into the States at five. She began\n                studying organ at the age of six and, as fate would have it, Thomas was given her\n                first music lessons and introduction to the organ by the great Jimmy Smith. Thomas\n                abandoned dental school at Ohio State to attend music school in Los Angeles. After\n                time in all-female groups such as School Boy Crush, Software, and PMS, Thomas formed\n                Crank, a 3-piece hard rock band that shared the stage with Ice T and Body Count,\n                Fishbone, and Macy Gray. Thomas has also been hired out as a guitarist to several\n                funk and R\u0026B bands, notably doubling on guitar and bass in the Grammy-winning\n                band A Taste of Honey. She took second place in the 7th annual Jimi Hendrix contest,\n                and played in Japan, France, and New York at various music festivals and events\n                including the Manhattan Music Center. Thomas currently performs with her band The\n                Blues Church. ","Linda Tillery (panelist/interviewee):  Before becoming a\n                prominent figure in women's music in the 1990s, San Francisco native Linda Tillery\n                began her singing career in the 1960s with the gender and racially integrated\n                psychedelic/soul band The Loading Zone, which was modeled somewhat after Sly \u0026\n                the Family Stone. After two albums with that band, Tillery released her solo debut,\n                     Sweet Linda Divine , on CBS in 1970 to\n                enthusiastic reviews and high praise. She spent most of the 1970s singing and\n                playing drums on over forty albums, including those by Mary Watkins and Teresa\n                Trull. Having become a staff musician and producer at Olivia Records, Tillery\n                released her second solo album, a self-titled effort, on the label in 1978,\n                garnering a Bay Area Music Award for Best Independently Produced Album. Tillery has\n                twice gone on to win Bay Area Jazz awards for Outstanding Female Vocalist. In\n                subsequent years, Tillery collaborated with female musical powerhouses including\n                June Millington, Deidre McCalla, Barbara Higbie, and Margie Adam, as well as on the\n                Olivia Records 10th anniversary album,  Meg/Cris Live at\n                    Carnegie  (1983). In 1985, Tillery released  Secrets  on her own 411 label which returned her to center stage. In\n                recent years, she has assembled a large band, Skin Tight, which plays jazzy, funky\n                blues. She has also performed with the ZaSu Pitts Memorial Orchestra and has\n                branched out into radio, film, theater, and television commercials. She has worked\n                for the National Endowment for the Arts and appeared with artists ranging from\n                Santana, Kenny Loggins, and Huey Lewis to the Turtle Island String Quartet, Bobby\n                McFerrin, and Holly Near. In 1992, Tillery created the Cultural Heritage Choir as an\n                outlet for her desire to perform the traditional spiritual music of African American\n                slaves and their descendants. ","Ike Willis (panelist/interviewee)  first met Frank Zappa\n                while studying political science at Washington University. Willis volunteered to\n                help with the concert committee just so he could get a backstage pass to meet Frank\n                Zappa. As a result of this meeting in 1978, Willis became Zappa's lead singer and\n                rhythm guitarist for nearly fifteen years. In addition to touring, Willis performed\n                on Zappa's albums  Joe's Garage ,  Tinsel Town Rebellion , and  You\n                    Are What You Is . He also played the title character and narrator in\n                Zappa's off-Broadway musical,  Thing-Fish . Willis'\n                distinct baritone vocals coupled with his melodic guitar style continues to solidify\n                the musical legacy of Frank Zappa, which Willis promotes not only through his own\n                music, but also via performances with ensembles around the world that perform Frank\n                Zappa's music, such as Bogus Pomp, Project/Object, Ugly Radio Rebellion, and The\n                Central Scrutinizer Band.

The eight interviewers -- Mary Kay Becker, Mark Dalrymple, Roger Dankert, Richard Gillam, James McRae, Penny Niland, Jon Roise, and Julie Wells -- were sponsored by KZSU, Stanford's student radio station, and their original intent was to gather material suitable for rebroadcasting in the form of radio programs. Much attention was focused on white civil rights workers, although a great deal of other documentation relevant to black history was also obtained: the interviewers visited over fifty civil rights projects in six states (see appendix) and secured three hundred and thirty hours of recordings, including over two hundred hours of personal interviews. In addition to interviewing members of various, well-known civil rights groups -- the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE), the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party (MFDP), the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC or `Snick') -- the student interviewers also recorded the formal and the informal remarks of those working with smaller, independent civil rights projects, of local blacks associated with the civil rights movement, and of many others including Ku Klux Klansmen and Southerners connected with the Sheriff's Department of Clay County, Mississippi. The interviewers, in addition, spoke with many white volunteers who participated in Snick's `Washington Lobby' (aimed at unseating the all-white Mississippi Congressional Delegation) but who did not actually go south.","Several of the two-man interview teams recorded parts of the Jackson, Bougalusa, Greensboro, Crawfordsville, and West Point demonstrations, and also gathered various other action tapes of civil rights workers canvassing voters, conducting freedom schools, or participating in demonstrations. Finally, the interviewers recorded many mass meetings and gathered much material on the orientation sessions of MFDP in Hattiesburg, Mississippi and of SCLC in Atlanta, Georgia. All of these original tape recordings are now housed in the Library of Recorded Sound, Stanford, California.","The following pages contain transcripts of the majority of recordings mentioned above. It is hoped that these volumes will rescue from obscurity a body of information which we believe can be of great use both to scholars and to laymen interested in the dramatic history of the civil rights movement during the past decade. This material may prove to be especially valuable because it concerns a transitional period between the first `freedom summer' of 1964, the high tide of civil rights, and the `Meredith March of 1966 during which Stokely Carmichael first voiced the compelling cry of `Black Power'. In fact, at least one essay and a documentary history based on these recordings are already in progress, and it is expected that more will soon follow.","Many of the interviewees are identified by name on the first page of the transcripts which follow. Because of the long time which has already elapsed since the interviews were recorded, however, it is requested that these names not be used in print unless the written consent of the interviewees concerned is first obtained.","In closing, we would like to express our thanks to the Stanford Institute of American History and to the Stanford Library for financial support which made possible the transcription of the original recordings. We would also like to thank Mrs. Betty Eldon of the Institute of American History who accepted the added burden of paperwork connected with this transcription project with tolerance and good humor.

Jabara was born in Mancelona, Michigan in 1940 to Lebanese parents who had immigrated to the United States in the early 20th century, eventually settling in northern Michigan. Jabara took an interest in Middle Eastern affairs throughout his youth and upon graduation from high school in 1958 decided to attend the University of Michigan, largely because the school offered courses in Arabic and had a prominent Arab student population. During his early undergraduate years Jabara determined that in order to learn the Arabic language properly he would have to immerse himself in that culture and so he spent five months living in Cairo, Egypt. He then journeyed by freighter to Lebanon to visit his father's village, where he met his uncle for the first time."," Upon returning from this trip, Jabara's focus centered more on the completion of his undergraduate education at Michigan than on Middle East issues. However, during his years of law school at Wayne State University in Detroit he gradually became more involved with civil rights issues and founded a local chapter of the Civil Rights Research Council. He graduated from law school in 1965 and returned to Lebanon to further develop his Arabic language skills through additional schooling."," Jabara returned to Detroit in 1966 to open his law practice. In 1967, the Arab-Israeli war and the anti-Arab sentiment it created prompted Jabara to become heavily involved with Arab-American issues. Academics of Arab heritage met at the University of Michigan to discuss the political situation and formed the Association of Arab-American University Graduates (AAUG) in 1968. The mission of the AAUG was to promote educational and cultural activities and information about the Arab world and the Arab-American community. Jabara served as the first executive secretary and was later elected president of the group in 1972."," In 1970, Jabara joined the law firm of Lafferty, Reosti, Jabara, Papakhian, Stickgold, James and Smith in Detroit. For the next decade and a half he would fight for the rights of Arabs living or traveling in the United States as well as political activists in general. He did so by challenging the practice of collecting information and maintaining surveillance of Arabs and Arab Americans by such institutions as the Detroit and Michigan State Police, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Secretary of State. Jabara's own case against the FBI, for which he enlisted the help of the ACLU, finally ended in victory in 1984 with the FBI agreeing to destroy his file and acknowledging that collecting the information found within the file violated his constitutional rights."," Throughout his legal career Jabara would take on nationally prominent cases of Arabs and Arab-Americans. Such cases included Sirhan B. Sirhan, convicted in the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy in 1968, and Ziad Abu Eain, wanted for extradition to Israel for a 1979 Palestine Liberation Organization bombing."," Jabara was also involved in the National Lawyer's Guild, an organization founded as an alternative to the more conservative American Bar Association. In 1977 he traveled to Lebanon, Jordan, Israel and the Occupied Territories as part of the NLG's Middle East delegation to report on the condition and treatment of Palestinians living in the Occupied Territories. Jabara became president of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee in 1986. The ADC, founded by former Senator James Abourezk in 1980, devoted itself to the protection of the rights of people of Arab descent and promoting their cultural heritage. Jabara now (2002) works for the ADC Research Institute in Washington D.C. He recently worked as part of the defense team for Omar Ahmad Ali Abdel Rahman, accused of plotting to blow up New York City landmarks and the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center. Jabara resides in New York City.","The collection has been divided into two series: Litigation/Court Cases and Political and Cultural Activities. The many files of correspondence and press clippings document the types of legal and political battles and causes that Jabara has tackled throughout his career. A limited amount of material in the collection is in Arabic, mostly correspondence and press clippings, and is noted as such in the contents list.","Abdeen M.

DeWeese, a physician then working in Detroit, became frustrated by what he perceived to be a lack of educational choice for his own children then about to begin school. With other like-minded individuals, DeWeese formed Michigan Citizens for Choice in Education (shortly to be renamed TEACH Michigan). Incorporated as a non-profit organization in 1991, TEACH Michigan was established to lobby for changes in the law regarding school choice. Associated with TEACH Michigan was a tax-exempt sister organization - TEACH Michigan Education Fund (TMEF) - which with license to solicit charitable contributions could engage in a variety of educational, research, and planning functions."," Under DeWeese's leadership, TEACH Michigan advocated fundamental changes in the state's educational system. The core of TEACH Michigan's philosophy of education was simply stated. Parents should be allowed to choose from competing systems of schools with funding for education following the student and not automatically being given to the government-supported school system. An ambitious agenda, TEACH Michigan realized the importance of educating the public and enlisting enough grassroots support for the necessary changes in state law and in the state constitution to be made. With the law changed, there would follow competition for the education dollar resulting in non-governmental sponsorship of K-12 schools by corporations, public or private universities, parent groups or churches, as well as by the government. No longer would there be a \"government monopoly\" school system. Instead, parents would receive financial support (or vouchers) for their children to attend the school of their choice."," Although his message never wavered, DeWeese was realistic enough to realize that \"full choice\" could only come incrementally, thus his advocacy of changes in state law to allow for the creation of charter schools. Charter schools are public schools that are custom-designed by groups of teachers, parents or outside individuals to meet particular education needs. Charter schools are part of the public school system, financed on a par with other schools in the district. But for charter schools to become a reality state law would have to be changed. In December 1993, with the passage of Senate bill no. 896 (signed by the governor in January 1994), Michigan adopted the most significant restructuring of public education since the development of single-function school districts in the early 20th century. The state authorized groups of certified teachers and community leaders to form individual charter schools (public school academies) \"that are to be treated like school districts\" for the purposes of state education law. These \"single-school school districts\" could be started anywhere in the state by one or more certified teachers, a county, city, village, township, school district, community college, or state public university. Each new school would develop its own governing board, and must describe its educational goals and the standards by which its performance will be measured. Each of these academies would receive a state school aid payment for its enrolled students."," Following the passage of 896, TMEF established a sister organization, the Michigan Center for Charter Schools (MCCS), whose purpose was to promote the development of charter schools. TMEF subsidized the operation of MCCS throughout its existence. MCCS was the only organization in the state early on that was disseminating timely and accurate information about charter schools. MCCS also helped several groups move through the process of establishing a charter school. By the end of 1995, more than 60 charter school had been established with an additional 120 schools seeking charters."," In November 1994, an Ingham County circuit court judge ruled the law unconstitutional. Although the groups authorized to grant charters were government entities, the judge ruled, the day-to-day operations of schools were largely in the hands of privately elected directors and thus not directly accountable to the public. With this decision, the charter schools that had been established were left without public funding. In some cases, the schools reverted to private school status relying on tuitions and corporate donations for their support. In other cases, the state legislature, many of whose members believed that the judge's ruling would be overturned on appeal, passed emergency legislation which addressed the judge's objection to the original legislation."," In 1995, the state Board of Education contracted with the Michigan Partnership for New Education to both promote charter schools and to provide technical assistance to charter schools. The Michigan Partnership immediately asked for, and received, permission to hire the entire staff of MCCS in order to run their charter school operation. In May of 1995, MCCS ceased to operate, as its mission and staff were absorbed by the Michigan Partnership for New Education."," From its inception, TEACH Michigan knew that for real educational reform to take place from their point of view, the Michigan State Constitution (Article 8, sec. 2) would have to be revised. That provision restricted the use of public funds to government-operated schools only. With the constitution changed, TEACH Michigan hoped to secure passage of a voucher system so that parents might choose, and receive funding, for their child to attend a church-related school."," In 2000, the TEACH Michigan organization was folded into a new organization, Partnership for Learning.","This record group consists of two separate groupings (or subgroups) of records: the combined files of TEACH Michigan and TEACH Michigan Education Fund covering the period of 1989 to 1995, and files of the charter school support group, Michigan Center for Charter Schools covering the years 1994-1995. Both organizations operated out of the same office in Lansing and included some of the same individuals as board members. The TM/TMEF files consist in great part of papers of Dr. Paul N. DeWeese, a principal founder of the organization. The MCCS files are largely papers of executive director Barbara Barrett as well as DeWeese. Together, the record group contains correspondence, policy statements, organizational and activity files, collected materials, sound and video materials, all relating to the efforts of the two organizations first to educate and lobby for changes in the law, and second to provide assistance and support in the establishment of charter schools. The records date from the inception of the organization to 1995. The subsequent records of TEACH Michigan remain with the organization.","Donor(s) have not transferred any applicable copyright to the Regents of the University of Michigan.

DeWeese and others to lobby for changes in state law and the state constitution to allow parents to choose between competing schools.

The record group includes Informational materials detailing mission and goals of the TEACH Michigan organization; organizational files; topical files; correspondence; speeches and articles about school choice and the state charter school movement; and audio and video cassettes of TM presentations and appearances of Paul DeWeese on radio and television programs.

DeWeese, a physician then working in Detroit, became frustrated by what he perceived to be a lack of educational choice for his own children then about to begin school. With other like-minded individuals, DeWeese formed Michigan Citizens for Choice in Education (shortly to be renamed TEACH Michigan). Incorporated as a non-profit organization in 1991, TEACH Michigan was established to lobby for changes in the law regarding school choice. Associated with TEACH Michigan was a tax-exempt sister organization - TEACH Michigan Education Fund (TMEF) - which with license to solicit charitable contributions could engage in a variety of educational, research, and planning functions."," Under DeWeese's leadership, TEACH Michigan advocated fundamental changes in the state's educational system. The core of TEACH Michigan's philosophy of education was simply stated. Parents should be allowed to choose from competing systems of schools with funding for education following the student and not automatically being given to the government-supported school system. An ambitious agenda, TEACH Michigan realized the importance of educating the public and enlisting enough grassroots support for the necessary changes in state law and in the state constitution to be made. With the law changed, there would follow competition for the education dollar resulting in non-governmental sponsorship of K-12 schools by corporations, public or private universities, parent groups or churches, as well as by the government. No longer would there be a \"government monopoly\" school system. Instead, parents would receive financial support (or vouchers) for their children to attend the school of their choice."," Although his message never wavered, DeWeese was realistic enough to realize that \"full choice\" could only come incrementally, thus his advocacy of changes in state law to allow for the creation of charter schools. Charter schools are public schools that are custom-designed by groups of teachers, parents or outside individuals to meet particular education needs. Charter schools are part of the public school system, financed on a par with other schools in the district. But for charter schools to become a reality state law would have to be changed. In December 1993, with the passage of Senate bill no. 896 (signed by the governor in January 1994), Michigan adopted the most significant restructuring of public education since the development of single-function school districts in the early 20th century. The state authorized groups of certified teachers and community leaders to form individual charter schools (public school academies) \"that are to be treated like school districts\" for the purposes of state education law. These \"single-school school districts\" could be started anywhere in the state by one or more certified teachers, a county, city, village, township, school district, community college, or state public university. Each new school would develop its own governing board, and must describe its educational goals and the standards by which its performance will be measured. Each of these academies would receive a state school aid payment for its enrolled students."," Following the passage of 896, TMEF established a sister organization, the Michigan Center for Charter Schools (MCCS), whose purpose was to promote the development of charter schools. TMEF subsidized the operation of MCCS throughout its existence. MCCS was the only organization in the state early on that was disseminating timely and accurate information about charter schools. MCCS also helped several groups move through the process of establishing a charter school. By the end of 1995, more than 60 charter school had been established with an additional 120 schools seeking charters."," In November 1994, an Ingham County circuit court judge ruled the law unconstitutional.
