Junius Williams Notes on Demands to Gov. Hughes at Morven (Jan. 19, 1968)

Notes taken by Junius Williams, head of the Newark Area Planning Association (NAPA), on demands that NAPA and the Committee Against Negro and Puerto Rican Removal would issue to Governor Richard Hughes during a meeting about the Medical School Negotiations on January 19, 1968. This meeting was seen as a turning point in the Medical School Negotiations. NAPA and the Committee Against Negro and Puerto Rican Removal led the charge to develop an alternate plan for the College of Medicine and Dentistry that would have originally displaced approximately 20,000 Black and Puerto Rican residents of the Central Ward. — Credit: Junius Williams Collection
