NOTE ON SELECTIONS
Portions of the Claude A. Barnett papers at the Archives and Manuscripts Department of the Chicago Historical Society do not appear in this microfilm edition. The
editors chose not to include African and other foreign relations materials and to film
only the American categories of the Barnett papers that hold the greatest potential
research value. Materials of negligible or specialized research interest that were not
microfilmed include some pamphlets, some categories composed entirely of newsclippings, partial sets of minutes of institutions which Barnett served as a board
member, a small group of materials that are closed to researchers at present, and
routine financial records. Questions about the Barnett papers should be directed to
the Archives and Manuscripts Department.
Photographs, primarily dating from the 1940s to the 1960s, also are not included
in this microfilm set. They are housed in the Prints and Photographs Department of
the Chicago Historical Society.

HISTORICAL SKETCH
The Claude A. Barnett Papers
Claude A. Barnett founded the Associated Negro Press (ANP) in March 1919 and
remained its director through nearly half a century of enormous social change. The
ANP was the largest and longest-lived news service to supply black newspapers in
the United States with news of interest to black citizens, opinion columns, reviews of
books, movies, and records, and occasionally poetry, cartoons, and photographs.
The ANP provided its member newspapers with professionally written, detailed
coverage of activities within black communities across the country and the latest
news about national trends and events. It thereby helped create a national black
culture and increased black awareness of national news. It also provided a national
forum for black leaders, helped set professional standards of news writing for the
black press, aided many small black newspapers to survive, and enabled black journalists to gain reporting experience.
.Nearly all of the major black newspapers as well as many of the smaller ones
became members of the ANP. In general, over seventy newspapers received ANP
news releases, including the Pittsburgh Courier, Norfolk Journal and Guide, Afro
American (Baltimore and other cities), New York Age, Amsterdam News (New York
City), Houston Informer, Black Dispatch (Oklahoma City), Kansas City Call, Atlanta
World, and (briefly) Chicago Defender. Nearly all black newspapers published once
a week, and so the ANP was a mail service rather than a wire service.
According to the standard contract, newspapers agreed to pay modest weekly
service fees, to print an ANP credit line with each news item from the releases that
they published, and to act as a local correspondent for the ANP. In return, class "A"
members received two (in later years, three) mailings of ANP news releases every
week.
The central staff of the ANP, working out of offices on the South Side of Chicago,
compiled the news releases from many sources. They sifted information from the
black newspapers and from daily newspapers, from news releases of government
agencies, foundations, organizations, and businesses, and from ANP correspondents
throughout the country. After 1939, the ANP also maintained a regular staff reporter
in Washington, D.C. For background information, the ANP's editors referred to the
ANP's morgue containing topical files of clippings from newspapers and from past
ANP news releases.
Generally, the ANP followed a middle-of-the-road editorial policy that Barnett
hoped would be acceptable to all of the member newspapers. Barnett performed
some of the editorial work, usually anonymously, although sometimes he wrote
under the penname Albert Anderson. Mostly, however, he relied on the ANP's editors
and on Irene Roland, his secretary for nearly thirty years, to handle day-to-day
production. Many respected journalists served as editors over the years, including
Nahum Daniel Brascher, Percival L. Prattis, Frank Marshall Davis, Charlece Harston,
Albert G. Barnett, Luix Virgil Overbea, Zack Weston, James J. Foree, Eddie L.
Madison, Enoc Waters, J.H. Randall, and Lee Blackwell.
vii
Much of Barnett's time was spent in routine administration, arranging for local
correspondents to cover upcoming news events, cajoling publishers to pay overdue
service fees, and promoting advertising. Because the service fees were insufficient to
cover operating costs, Barnett always sought ways to supplement the ANP's income.
The ANP survived through the early 1930s because Barnett paired it with an advertising exchange. He provided ANP service to newspapers in exchange for "white
space," unsold space in their pages. Another company in which Barnett was involved,
Associated Publishers' Representative, then sold this space to advertisers. Poro College, a company that Annie M. Turnbo-Malone built into one of the first milliondollar black cosmetics manufacturers, was a major advertising client.
In later years Barnett turned increasingly to private donors and institutional supporters, some known as "associate members" of the ANP, who contributed funds to
help sustain the news service. Frances P. Bolton, U.S. Representative from Ohio,
became a substantial private donor.
Claude A. Barnett resided most of his life in Chicago, Illinois, although he also
traveled extensively. He was born on September 16, 1889 in Sanford, Florida, where
his parents, William and Celena Barnett, were living temporarily. His father was a
domestic worker who divided his year between Chicago hotels and Southern resorts.
His parents' marriage dissolved while Barnett was young, and his mother worked as
a housekeeper in the homes of wealthy Chicagoans to support herself and her son.
Claude Barnett attended elementary schools in Chicago and in Mattoon, Illinois,
where members of his mother's family operated barbershops and worked as chefs
and as teachers. Celena Anderson Barnett traced her roots to a small band of free
black families who migrated from North Carolina to Lost Creek, Indiana, before the
Civil War, and thence to Mattoon, Illinois.
During the years 1902-04, Barnett attended Oak Park High School while working
as a houseboy in the home of Richard W. Sears, co-founder of Sears, Roebuck &
Company. In September 1904, Celena Barnett sent Claude to Tuskegee Institute to
continue his education. At Tuskegee, Barnett finished the advanced course in only
two years, but one can scarcely overestimate the influence of Tuskegee on the rest
of his life. During his time there, he came to share his mother's admiration for
Booker T. Washington, Tuskegee's founder and president, and for the principles he
taught: self-help, moderation, respectability, vocational training, and black capitalism. His fellow Tuskegeeans•classmates, staff, and alumni•formed a network of
associates that Barnett found congenial and helpful throughout his career.
Returning to Chicago in 1906, Barnett took a job with the post office, where he
remained ten years. His duties included sorting the many publications sent through
the mail, and he later recalled his experience as a good opportunity to peruse the
newspapers and magazines and to develop an eye for effective writing and advertising. After a bout with ill health forced him to leave the post office in 1916, Barnett
tried his hand at several ventures. He set up his own advertising agency (C.A. Barnett Advertising: "I Reach the Negro.") and helped organize the Kashmir Chemical
Company, manufacturer of Nile Queen cosmetics. In a few years the cosmetics company folded, but by then he had established the Associated Negro Press.
The ANP placed Claude A. Barnett at the center of a national information network, introduced him to black leaders throughout the country, and made him a
valuable ally to those who sought to shape modern black life. During the 1920s,
Barnett was active in Republican politics, eventually serving as secretary of the publicity committee of the Colored Voters Division of the Republican National Committee during Herbert Hoover's 1928 presidential campaign. Barnett's acquaintance with
President Hoover began earlier: in 1925-26 while Hoover was Secretary of Commerce, Barnett persuaded him to create a government position for a black man as
adviser to small businesses. In 1927 Barnett served on the blue-ribbon committee
chaired by President Robert R. Moton of Tuskegee Institute and appointed by Secretary Hoover to inspect the distribution of Red Cross aid to black victims of Southern
floods. Also in the 1920s, Barnett participated in the fact-finding conferences of
black leaders held at North Carolina College at Durham.
VIII
In 1932 Barnett and another black man became the first graduates of Tuskegee
Institute to be elected to its board of trustees. He served in this position for over
thirty years. With Albon Holsey, a Tuskegee Institute administrator who was also
executive secretary of the National Negro Business League, Barnett worked to convince national advertisers of the importance of the Negro market. He also assisted
the Conference of Presidents of Negro Land Grant Colleges in drawing the attention
of the Democratic administration in Washington to the needs of black colleges.
From 1942 to 1952, Barnett and President F.D. Patterson of Tuskegee Institute served
as special assistants to the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture, advising the U.S.D.A. on
the effectiveness of federal programs relating to black farmers. When Patterson took
the lead in organizing the United Negro College Fund, Barnett loyally supported him
in alumni relations and fund drives.
Meanwhile, in Chicago, Claude A. Barnett served as president of the board of
Provident Hospital during the 1930s and became a director of the Supreme Liberty
Life Insurance Company. He was also one of the principal organizers of the American Negro Exposition, held in the summer of 1940.
In 1934 Barnett married Etta Moten, a well-known concert singer and actress.
They reared her three daughters from a previous marriage, Sue, Etta Vee, and Gladys.
Mrs. Barnett's career became another factor in Barnett's many travels and promotions, although it soon outgrew his ability to manage it on a part-time basis. In the
1930s and 1940s Etta Moten Barnett made annual concert tours, primarily through
the South and Midwest where her appearances were sponsored by black colleges,
churches, and other organizations. For several months in 1942, the Barnetts lived in
New York while Mrs. Barnett sang the lead in Porgy and Bess on Broadway.
During the 1940s Barnett used the ANP to press for an end to segregation in the
armed forces, served on a Red Cross committee opposed to racial segregation of
blood donors, and later was appointed to the national board of governors of the Red
Cross. He also advised the Harmon Foundation on a traveling exhibition of portraits
of prominent black Americans and on an exhibition of African art.
Claude and Etta Barnett made their first trip to Africa in 1947, traveling under the
auspices of the Phelps-Stokes Fund. Barnett's primary purpose was to inspect
Booker T. Washington Institute in Kakata, Liberia, which had been founded with the
aid of consultants from Tuskegee Institute and partially funded by the Phelps-Stokes
Fund. Barnett toured extensively on the African continent during this visit and made
many more trips to Africa over the next two decades. Fascinated by African culture
in general, his interest focused on Liberia, where he became well acquainted with
President William V.S. Tubman, other government officials, American diplomats, and
businessmen. He served as a board member of Booker T. Washington Institute, of
the Phelps-Stokes Fund, and of The Liberia Company, Inc. Between 1961 and 1963,
Barnett also operated a World News Service that sent news releases prepared in the
ANP's Chicago office to over one hundred African newspapers.
The Associated Negro Press began to lose membership in the 1950s, although
still serving about fifty newspapers. As the civil rights movement developed, major
American daily newspapers increased their coverage of the black community. Some
of the more prosperous black newspapers joined a national wire service, and a few
began to publish daily. But the ANP remained a weekly mail service. The National
Newspaper Publishers Association set up a rival news service. However, despite the
forces reshaping the press, the ANP remained remarkably strong as long as it could
draw on Barnett's experience and contacts. In 1963 Ebony magazine ranked him
among the one hundred most influential black Americans.
When declining health persuaded Barnett to retire in July 1964, the Associated
Negro Press closed its doors. He began writing an autobiography, but a series of
strokes ended this effort, and Claude A. Barnett died in Chicago on August 2, 1967.

DESCRIPTION
Part III: Subject Files on Black Americans,
1918-1967
These papers describe the world of black America at the height of its separate
development: after the urban migration of the early twentieth century produced sufficient concentrations of population and other resources to support it and before
integration changed it. The common link in the generation of these materials was
Claude A. Barnett's extraordinary range of overlapping and interconnected interests
and activities, including operation of the Associated Negro Press; service as Special
Assistant to the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture and as an informal adviser to other
policy makers; participation in Republican party campaigns, the National Negro Business League, and the United Negro College Fund; and membership on the governing boards of Tuskegee Institute, Provident Hospital (Chicago), Supreme Liberty
Life Insurance Company, Phelps-Stokes Fund, the American Negro Exposition
(Chicago 1940), and the American National Red Cross. Materials reflect the many
roles that Barnett played as journalist and news distributor, as adviser and confidante, as administrator and consultant, as promoter and critic, as family man and
friend.
This microfilm set contains most of the materials found in eleven series of the
Claude A. Barnett papers. They are organized by subject. The series begin with
General Files that relate broadly to the subject of the series. These usually contain
correspondence, memos, reports, clippings (from newspapers and from news releases of the ANP and of other organizations), and a few pamphlets. They are followed by specific Topical Files that usually also contain correspondence and clippings. The Topical Files include many stories clipped from ANP news releases and
filed by topic; however, there is no guarantee that they contain all ANP stories on a
given topic. Materials from the years before 1928 are rare, but later files seem to
have survived intact. Often a letterhead or an address determines where an item is
filed: for example, letters with the letterhead of Fisk University are generally found in
the Fisk University folders.
The eleven series are A: Agriculture, 1923-1966; B: Colleges and Universities,
1918-1966; C: Economic Conditions, 1918-1966; D: Entertainers, Artists, and Authors,
1928-1965; E: Medicine, 1927-1965; F: Military, 1925-1965; G: Philanthropic and
Social Organizations, 1925-1966; H: Politics and Law, 1920-1965; I: Race Relations,
1923-1965; J: Religion, 1924-1966; and K: Claude A. Barnett Personal Files, 19201967.
XI
Series A: Agriculture, 1923-1966
This series documents efforts to improve the lives of the black, rural, primarily
southern population. The General Files contain correspondence with black and
white officials of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (U.S.D.A), Department of Interior, Extension Service, and various other federal agencies•in Washington, D.C.,
and in local offices throughout the U.S.•who dealt with this constituency. Subjects
include job appointments for blacks; race relations within government agencies and
in rural communities; access for blacks to federal programs for adult education,
health, crop insurance, farm loans, etc.; home economists; 4-H Clubs; farmers' organizations; and migrant labor. Barnett's letters from his service as Special Assistant to
the Secretary of Agriculture (1942-52) are filed here, but related correspondence is
found in Series B under the category "Tuskegee Institute." Extension agents are
represented both in the General Files and, occasionally, in the Topical Files under
the name of the college that sponsored them.
Topical Files include correspondence of Thomas M. Campbell, the U.S.D.A. Field
Agent stationed at Tuskegee Institute, and of James P. ("Jim Perry") Davis,! an
agriculture official in Little Rock who shared Barnett's national political interests and
contributed news stories to the ANP.
The category "Negro Land Grant Colleges" is divided into general correspondence, which relates to most of the colleges, and separate files for each school.
Much of the general correspondence concerns government agencies and the Conference of Presidents of Negro Land Grant Colleges (a group which included the
black, southern, state agricultural colleges as well as Tuskegee Institute, Hampton
Institute, and Wilberforce College as associate members). The separate files on the
Negro land grant colleges in each southern state sometimes also contain items relating to the southern, state-supported, black colleges (such as the state normal schools).
Most correspondence with administrators, faculty, and students is arranged in these
college files although some correspondence of the presidents is found with the
general correspondence of the Conference of Presidents.
Series B: Colleges and Universities, 1918-1966
Series B contains correspondence and clippings relating to administrators, faculty,
students, and alumni of institutions of higher learning. Correspondence with Barnett
discusses news coverage, federal government programs and funding, studies of
black life and other faculty achievements, job appointments, and occasionally, national politics.
The General Files contain miscellaneous items relating to colleges•black and
white•for which there are no other file categories in the Barnett papers. Also present are files on academic honors won by blacks, on the concept of southern regional
education and its relation to segregation, and on the United Negro College.Fund.
The Topical Files contain files arranged alphabetically on black colleges and on
universities with significant black programs. The largest portion of this material concerns Tuskegee Institute, which Barnett served as a member of the board of trustees
from 1932 to 1965. Barnett also maintained strong ties to President Mordecai Johnson of Howard University (who shared his interest in national politics), Dr. Numa
P.G. Adams of Howard University Medical School, President Charles S. Johnson of
Fisk University (who wrote a regular column for the ANP), President Albert W. Dent
of Dillard University, and President James E. Shepard of North Carolina College at
Durham (sponsor of the Fact Finding Conferences). The texts of papers presented
by prominent blacks at the Durham Fact Finding Conferences of the late 1920s give
an overview of such topics as politics, hospitals, religion, and the press.
XII
The Tuskegee Institute general correspondence consists of correspondence with
Presidents Robert R. Moton, F.D. Patterson, and Luther L. Foster, and various other
administrators and faculty. Subjects include Tuskegee operations, relations with charitable foundations, the Alabama State government, federal government agencies, white
neighbors in the town of Tuskegee, and state and national politicians. Patterson's
correspondence after June 1953, when he became director of the Phelps-Stokes Fund,
is found in Series G.
The Tuskegee Institute Topical Files show the ANP's involvement in a proposal to
found an agriculture newspaper and in the production of Service magazine. They
also relate to Chicago alumni interests, including the aviator John C. Robinson
(whose exploits in Ethiopia were publicized by the ANP and by James C. Boyack),
discuss Southland Manufacturing Company's exemption from N.R.A. regulations,
and include correspondence of Tuskegee administrators Lucien Green (Barnett's
cousin) and Albon Holsey (a friend of Barnett). Holsey's letters are particularly extensive and deal with Tuskegee, politics, the U.S.D.A. and other government agencies,
and the National Negro Business League. The "Hospitals" category concerns federal
government-supported hospitals elsewhere as well as the Veterans Administration
hospital at Tuskegee.
Series C: Economic Conditions, 1918-1966
Materials in Series C relate to companies, business organizations, labor unions,
federal and state governments, and American economic conditions in general. Correspondence discusses newsgathering for the ANP, black business development,
and jobs and training for black workers. Large groups of materials relate to beauty
products companies, insurance companies, the National Negro Business League
(N.N.B.L.), railroad companies and workers, unions, and U.S. government offices,
particularly the Department of Commerce and the Department of Labor.
Correspondence of the cosmetics companies often refers to Barnett's advertising
business (the files of which are located in Part II of this microfilm edition with other
materials about advertising and public relations). Barnett was a partner in Kashmir
Chemical Company, manufacturer of Nile Queen cosmetics. The series also contains significant materials about Poro College, founded by Annie M. Turnbo-Malone,
for whom Barnett handled a great deal of advertising.
Correspondence with officials of insurance companies concerns advertising,
news, company policies, personnel, and financial achievements. Occasionally other
interests that Barnett shared with these men are discussed, such as membership in
fraternal societies and in the N.N.B.L.
Files of the National Negro Business League include correspondence with Albon
Holsey, the long-time executive secretary of thé N.N.B.L., about the routine operations of the organization, the CM.A. stores (a cooperative purchasing association
for grocers in the late 1920s), home economists, studies of the Negro market, and
efforts to promote advertising. Correspondence of newspaper publishers who were
N.N.B.L. members is found in Part II of this microfilm edition. Additional correspondence of Albon Holsey is located in Series B under the category "Tuskegee Institute."
The U.S. government general correspondence includes newsgathering efforts by
Barnett during the 1930s to determine how aid and jobs were being distributed to
blacks. Correspondence with the Commerce Department and the Census Bureau
largely concerns the gathering and analysis of statistics about black Americans as
part of Barnett's ongoing interest in documenting achievements of black Americans
and in persuading national advertisers that blacks were a significant consumer audience.
XIII
Series D: Entertainers, Artists, and Authors, 1928-1965
Series D contains correspondence between Barnett and entertainers, artists,
architects, authors, press agents, managers, ANP reporters on entertainment, publishers, producers, directors, theater owners, broadcasters, and executives of radio
stations, recording companies, broadcasting networks, and motion picture studios.
Two subjects frequently overlap: newsgathering for the ANP and Barnett's interest in
career opportunities for black people in the arts. Otherwise, the materials are disparate. ANP news releases designed for use by radio stations, 1957-58, are found in
Part I of this microfilm edition.
This series includes some letters by and to Etta Moten Barnett, the wife of Claude
A. Barnett. Her career as a singer, actress, and lecturer, performing in motion pictures, concert tours, radio, television, and Broadway (Porgy and Bess), introduced
her to many of the people whose correspondence is filed in this series. Because
Claude Barnett promoted her career, some of her correspondence is found among
his office files. However, the major portion of her correspondence is located in the
Etta Moten Barnett papers at the Chicago Historical Society and is not a part of this
microfilm édition.
Significant portions of this series pertain to the ANP, including its reporters who
covered the Hollywood scene (Fay Jackson, Harry Levette, and Calla Scrivner); writers whose pieces appeared in the ANP (Langston Hughes, Eslanda Robeson, Carl
Diton, and Andy Razaf); and E.M. Glucksman, whose All-American Newsreels company produced ANP newsreels shown in black motion picture theaters.
Generally, materials relating to creative writers appear in this series, but correspondence with authors of non-fiction works on the black experience usually are filed
in Series I: Race Relations or under the name of the college where they taught.
Series E: Medicine, 1927-1965
Series E concerns the medical professions, hospitals, and health care in general,
the U.S. Public Health Service, and foundations for the research and treatment of
disease. Two large groups of materials relate to Provident Hospital (Chicago) and to
the Red Cross.
Provident Hospital correspondence from the period when Barnett served as a
member (1931-42) and president (1939-41) of its board of trustees concerns the
quality of health care, accreditation of the hospital, staff training, segregation of
hospital services in Chicago, insurance, fund-raising, and the budget.
The Red Cross general correspondence and. Chicago Branch correspondence
concern various committees on which Barnett served as well as routine newsgathering for the ANP. Extensive materials on the Flood Relief Advisory Committee detail
the committee's investigation of charges of racial discrimination in the distribution of
aid to victims of the great Mississippi River flood of 1927. Barnett's correspondence
with Jesse O. Thomas relates to his work with the Urban League, the Red Cross, and
the U.S. Treasury Department.
Additional material on physicians, nurses, and hospitals is located in Series B,
especially under the category "Hospitals of Tuskegee Inst., Veterans Administration,
& other U.S. government hospitals."
Series F: Military, 1925-1965
The General Files of this series chiefly contain correspondence between Claude
A. Barnett and white and black personnel of the U.S. armed forces, civilian employees of the U.S. Defense (War) Department, and other persons involved with issues
of: racial discrimination and segregation within the U.S. armed forces; wartime press
censorship; recruitment policy and the draft; promotions, honors, medals, and "firsts"
achieved by blacks in the armed forces; the development of Tuskegee flying field
into a training base for the first all-black Army Air Corps units during World War II;
xiv
hiring and training of civilian war workers in private industry; and relations with the
local population wherever black troops were stationed. Correspondence with ANP
war correspondents and other service.men who sent news items to the ANP over the
years is included in the General Files.
The folders entitled "Assistant Civilian Aide to the Secretary of War" contain Barnett's correspondence with three black men who held that post: William Hastie,
Truman K. Gibson, Jr., and Robert Marcus. Barnett and Gibson•both Chicagoans•
had served together on the governing board of the American Negro Exposition in
1940, and both were associated with the Supreme Liberty Insurance Company. Their
wartime correspondence shows each expressing the special interests of his position:
Barnett requesting more information on racial incidents and Gibson emphasizing
the importance of responsible news coverage that would not inflame public opinion.
In general, subjects that are represented only by newsclippings in the Topical
Files are discussed in scattered correspondence in the General Files and in the correspondence of the Assistant Civilian Aide.
Additional material on the Tuskegee airmen is found in Series B in the "Tuskegee" categories. The "Hospitals" category under Tuskegee Institute also contains
materials on Veterans Administration and U.S. military hospitals, including the one
at Ft. Huachuca, Arizona. In Part II of this microfilm edition, the correspondence of
the ANP's Washington, D.C., reporters during World War II (Alvin White and Ernest
Johnson) discusses government and military news and policy makers.
Series G: Philanthropic and Social Organizations, 1925-1966
Materials pertaining to philanthropic foundations and to black social organizations that sponsored social service programs are arranged in Series G. Much of the
correspondence involves routine ANP coverage of their conventions, conferences,
grants, social activities, scholarship awards, and service programs. However, Barnett
participated more directly in some of these organizations.
As a trustee of Tuskegee Institute, Barnett discussed various grant proposals for
the school with Jackson Davis, assistant director of the General Education Board,
and with Edwin Embree, president of the Rosenwald Fund. In addition, their correspondence ranged over a variety of racial issues. Davis recognized Barnett's interest
in African affairs and, in 1943, nominated him to the board of trustees of Booker T.
Washington Institute, located in Kakata, Liberia. Three years later Barnett joined the
board of trustees of the Phelps-Stokes Fund and of the New York State Colonization
Society as well.
The Phelps-Stokes Fund provides scholarships for Africans to study in the United States and sponsors programs to improve race relations in the U.S. During World
War II, Barnett had served on the Fund's Committee on Africa and Peace Aims. After
he joined the board of trustees, he began to correspond extensively with Dr. Channing H. Tobias, director of the Fund, Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, L.A. Roy, and Dr. F.D.
Patterson (former president of Tuskegee Institute), who succeeded Tobias as director in 1953. In 1947, the Phelps-Stokes Fund sponsored Barnett's first trip to Africa.
Barnett's African interests appear also in his correspondence with Mary Brady,
the executive secretary of the Harmon Foundation. He advised her on a traveling
exhibit of portraits of outstanding black Americans and on an exhibition of African
art in New York in the late 1940s. Other organizations in which Barnett was interested personally include Alpha Phi Alpha, a fraternity of black professional and business men, which Barnett joined in 1950, and the Knights of Pythias, run by Barnett's
uncle (by marriage), S.W. Green.
Materials from and about women's organizations make up a large portion of Series G. Correspondence refers to the activities of many prominent black women who
belonged to these groups (Etta Moten Barnett was a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha)
xv
as well as to the social welfare programs that they sponsored. Correspondence with
and about Mary McLeod Bethune is filed under the National Council of Negro
Women and includes items about Bethune-Cookmán College and the National
Youth Administration.
Series H: Politics and Law, 1920-1965
The General Files of this series contain correspondence, memos, reports, and
lists pertaining to national political campaigns, issues, legislation, appointees, presidents, senators, representatives, and judges. Correspondents include office holders
and candidates for national offices, their staff members, campaign organizers and
volunteers throughout the country, supporters, and critics. Much of the material
concerns black participation in the Republican party although Democratic party
materials become more common over the years, particularly in the 1940s.
Barnett worked in every Republican presidential campaign from 1920 to 1932 and
continued to maintain ties with his cohorts from those years. Materials relating to
1928 are especially extensive because Barnett moved to Washington, D.C., during
the campaign to serve as secretary of the Publicity Committee of the Colored Voters
Division of the Republican National Committee. While in Washington, he corresponded regularly with P.L. Prattis and R. Irving Johnson of the ANP's Chicago
office. Most of these letters are filed with Prattis's correspondence in Part II of this
microfilm edition, and a few are located in the Illinois political correspondence. Prattis and Johnson were doing publicity work for the Chicago Democratic organization
at the same time. Press releases issued for the Republican 1932 campaign by one of
Barnett's companies, the National Feature Service, are found in Part I of this microfilm edition (after the ANP news releases).
The Topical Files contain materials on the courts, attorneys, and the National Bar
Association; extensive files on the Scottsboro (Alabama) Case, 1931-36, which John
L. Spivak covered for the ANP; publications of the Republican party and of the
Democratic party; and correspondence, news releases, and publications of several
left political groups and parties.
The last section concerns black participation in government and politics, primarily on the state and local levels, including such subjects as black appointed and
elected officials of state and local governments, voter registration, poll taxes, jury
duty, and election analyses. The general correspondence is diverse. Other files contain correspondence with the District of Columbia Recorder of Deeds (traditionally,
a black patronage appointee); Clinton P. Anderson, a former Secretary of Agriculture whom Barnett supported in his senatorial campaign; Judge Irvin Mollison of
Chicago and New York City; Lethia Fleming, an Ohioan who was a leader in Republican women's activities; and Raymond and Sadie Alexander of Philadelphia. The
Illinois and Indiana categories are very diverse, including correspondence with and
about local politicians, government workers, and the general citizenry. A large portion of the Illinois files relates to Chicago politics, neighborhoods and housing,
courts, transportation, and other city and county issues. Some of it concerns the
Douglas neighborhood of Chicago, where Barnett resided and owned rental properties.
Additional correspondence relating to national politics is found in the Tuskegee
Institute general correspondence and the Albon Holsey correspondence in Series B.
The correspondence of the ANP's Washington, D.C., reporters located in Part II of
this microfilm edition is relevant also.
Series I: Race Relations, 1923-1965
This series contains materials relating to racial concepts and interracial problems. Whereas other series of the Barnett papers contain files on particular race
relations issues affecting such institutions as the Methodist Church or Provident
xvi
Hospital, this series deals with broader subjects•segregation, the study of black
history, civil rights•and with race relations organizations.
A major portion of the files pertains to black history (primarily Afro-American
history) and efforts to assess the achievements of black people in the United States,
to promote self-pride, to publicize their accomplishments before a wider audience,
and to record and interpret their struggles. Extensive files concern the American
Negro Exposition held in Chicago in the summer of 1940. Known formally as the
Diamond Jubilee Exposition, it publicized the achievements of black Americans
since emancipation. Barnett helped organize the exhibits and programs on the black
press, agriculture, the postal service, art, and theater.
Materials on racial concepts and legal definitions of the term "Negro" are present
in this series, including some references to the gradual acceptance of the term
"Negro" in standard English usage (although most comments pertaining to publishers and the use of racial labels are found in Part II of this microfilm edition).
The NAACP and the Urban League are both represented by extensive files in this
series. Barnett corresponded with Walter White, Roy Wilkins, and other national
officers of the NAACP as well as local leaders in several parts of the country, including Leslie Perry in Washington, D.C., and Herbert L. LaGrone in Albuquerque, New
Mexico. Subjects range from Barnett's occasional clashes with the NAACP over his
moderate stance on racial issues to his cooperation in the 1930s drive to persuade
Congress to pass an anti-lynching bill.
Materials on W.E.B. Du Bois, Charles Houston, and William Pickens are arranged
separately in this section. These files concern not only their NAACP activities but
also other roles that they played: Du Bois's achievements as an historian and his
later activities in Africa, Houston's law career and involvement in Howard University
affairs, and Pickens's role as an ANP columnist and his later career with the U.S.
Treasury Department.
With the Urban League, the correspondence again ranges from national leaders
like Eugene Kinkle Jones to materials concerning local chapters, especially the Chicago Urban League, where Mr. and Mrs. Barnett served on various committees.
Series J: Religion, 1924-1966
Series J contains correspondence and other materials with and about religious
leaders and church members. Subjects discussed in Series J range from routine
ANP coverage of church activities to policy statements on segregation and struggles
for leadership within black churches. The series also contains most of the Barnett
papers relating to foreign missionaries, in Africa and elsewhere. Most of the material
is filed by denomination, arranged alphabetically. Two short sections containing interdenominational organizations and non-denominational (evangelical) churches and
ministers precede the materials filed by denomination.
The quantity and depth of materials varies greatly from denomination to denomination. Barnett had little contact with denominations that included few black members but carried on lengthy correspondence with Baptists, particularly officers of the
National Baptist Conventions, and with Methodists, particularly the bishops of the
African Methodist Episcopal Church. Significant subjects include reactions of Methodist Church clergymen and lay leaders to the proposed church merger of the 1930s;
dispute over the reelection of the Reverend J.H. Jackson to the presidency of the
National Baptist Convention in the 1950s; Dean Gordon Hancock of Virginia Union
University, who wrote an opinion column for the ANP for over twenty years; and
Bishops Richard R. Wright, Jr., and Frederick D. Jordan of the African Methodist
Episcopal Church. Small amounts of correspondence with other denominations
include two ministers whom Barnett probably met while they lived in Chicago, the
Reverend Owen A. Troy (Seventh Day Adventist) and the Reverend Harold Kingsley
XVII
(Congregationalist). After they moved to California, they corresponded with Barnett
about local conditions and church practices.
Series J includes correspondence with several clergymen who published or
edited newspapers (some of which were ANP members), including the Charleston
Messenger (South Carolina) in reel 2 (0001); the Nashville Globe, the Nashville Independent, and the Nashville Sun in reel 3 (0488); the Nashville Defender in reel
7 (0167); and the Kansas City Plaindealer (Kansas) in reel 9 (0356). In addition, some
churches or other religious organizations held associate membership in the ANP
which entitled them to print items from ANP news releases in their house publications.
Materials about many church-supported colleges are filed by denomination in
this series. Although materials on a few more church-affiliated colleges are located
in Series B: Colleges and Universities, those files seldom refer to the churches.
A few of the ministers whose correspondence is filed in Series J spoke frequently
on radio evangelical programs. Materials in Series D relate to two more radio series:
"Radio Church of God," by Elder Solomon Lightfoot Michaux, and "Wings Over
Jordan," by the Reverend Glenn T. Settle.
Very little material concerning the personal religious beliefs and practices of
members of the Barnett family appears in the series, although Mr. and Mrs. Barnett
attended St. Mary's A.M.E. Church in Chicago for many years. Mrs. Barnett's father
was the Reverend F.F. Moten of the A.M.E. Church (Kansas). Most items relating to
Talladega College (Alabama), the alma mater of Mrs. Barnett and of her daughters
Sue and Etta Vee, are filed in the A.M.E. Church general correspondence.
Series K: Claude A. Barnett Personal Files, 1920-1967
This series includes some of Barnett's personal correspondence with family and
friends; drafts of many speeches, non-ANP articles, and reports that he wrote on
various topics; and his unfinished autobiography and other biographical notes and
newsclippings. Much of Claude A. Barnett's correspondence with and about his
many aunts, uncles, and cousins is located here, although additional materials are
scattered throughout the Barnett papers. His correspondence with his wife is located
in the Etta Moten Barnett papers and is not a part of this microfilm edition.
Barnett's articles, speeches, and reports are invaluable resources for understanding the public image that he projected. They focus especially on the role of the black
press, the mission of Tuskegee Institute, Booker T. Washington Institute in Liberia,
goals of the Negro land grant colleges, Alpha Phi Alpha and the type of leadership
produced by the black community, the growth of black capitalism and pride in black
culture, and recognition of African heritage and support for the developing nations
of Africa. The texts of other speeches by Barnett are filed by topic in other series of
the Barnett papers.
Barnett's autobiography, tentatively entitled "Fly Out of Darkness," reveals his
attitudes late in his life and includes many details on the early years of his career
that are not recorded anywhere else. He wrote it after he retired from the ANP in
July 1964 but completed only the outline and five typescript chapters.
