Abstract
Charles Sumner (Chuck)
Stone is a prominent African-American journalist, with a career spanning from
his early days at the
New York Age (1958-1959) to his position
as editor and columnist at the
Philadelphia Daily News (1972-1991).
Between 1965 and 1967 he was special assistant and press secretary to New York
representative Adam Clayton Powell, Jr. He served as mediator between the
police and suspected criminals for over 20 years, most notably in his
negotiation of the Graterford Prison hostage crisis in 1981. He is the author
of multiple books, from political analyses to a novel about his time with
Powell and (in 2003) a children's book. He was also an educator for many years,
as Professor of English at the University of Delaware from 1985-1991 and Walter
Spearman Professor of Journalism at UNC-Chapel Hill from 1991 to 2005, when he
retired.
The collection contains clippings,
correspondence, writings, scrapbooks, photographs, research files, and printed
materials pertaining to the life and career of Chuck Stone. The papers span the
years 1931-2007 and document Stone's journalism career and writings, his
political career and relationship with Adam Clayton Powell, Jr., and his role
as an educator.

Collection Overview
The Chuck Stone Papers span the years 1931
to 2007. The collection consists of clippings and other print materials,
correspondence, writings, scrapbooks, photographs, a videotape, research files,
and diplomas and certificates pertaining to the life and career of Chuck Stone.
Of the subject areas documented here are Stone's career as a prominent
African-American journalist, his political career and relationship with Adam
Clayton Powell, Jr. (including Powell's time as head of the Congressional
Committee on Education and Labor), his role as a mediator between suspects and
the criminal justice system, and his involvement in civil rights struggles in
the United States. Also represented, but to a much lesser extent, is his
teaching career at the University of Delaware and UNC-Chapel Hill. The
collection is divided into nine series, each described below. Of these, the
largest by far are the Clippings and the
Subject Files series, which document respectively
Stone's journalistic writings (especially during his time at the
Philadelphia Daily News) and his research
interests over the years, including racial politics in the U.S.,
African-Americans in the media, the criminal justice system, censorship and
free speech, and standardized testing. The collection was acquired as part of
the John Hope Franklin Collection of African and African-American
Documentation.
The Adam Clayton Powell, Jr. Congressional Series
(RESTRICTED) documents Stone's time as press secretary and special
assistant to Powell. It contains office and business correspondence both to and
from Stone; clippings and other printed materials about Powell or the
Committee on Education and Labor; office files on
individual members of congress (notably Florida Democrat
Sam Gibbons, partly responsible for the campaign
to remove Powell from his position as head of the Committee); files related to
the workings of the Committee; press releases written by Stone; and a number of
papers relating to Powell's exclusion from Congress in 1967. This series should
be useful both for those interested in the career of Powell, since Stone worked
for him during a pivotal time in his career, and for those interested in the
workings of the Committee on Education and Labor during that time.
The Clippings Series is made up
predominantly of Stone's columns from the
Philadelphia Daily News and the
NEA Viewpoint (a
Newspaper Enterprise Association column syndicated
by
United Media), as well as articles about Stone from
various newspapers, and some writings by Stone appearing in other newspapers.
Topics addressed by Stone in his columns include racial politics in the U.S.,
Philadelphia politics, the media, Ireland, Stone's travels in Africa, women's
issues and feminism, the criminal justice system, and standardized testing.
Researchers interested in Stone's journalism career prior to 1972 will find
some earlier clippings here, but should consult the Scrapbooks Series (RESTRICTED) for more extensive
materials and clippings from that period.
The Correspondence Series (RESTRICTED)
contains correspondence to and from Stone relating to business and personal
matters. The majority of this series is made up of general correspondence or
correspondence relating to Stone's position as editor and columnist of the
Philadelphia Daily News. The remainder of
the series comprises topical folders of correspondence, such as the
correspondence between Stone and
Edward M. Ryder, an inmate at Graterford Prison.
Other such correspondence can be found in the "Criminal justice system"
subsection of the Subject Files Series.
The Other Writings Series houses Stone's
writings not contained in the Clippings Series, such
as speeches, sermons, and television transcripts; business documents and
research files pertaining to different projects on which Stone worked, such as
his attempts to develop his own life or his writings on
Adam Clayton Powell, Jr. into a movie, or various
uncompleted book projects; and a small subset of writings by others, including
an autobiography of
Corinne Huff on which Stone worked. It is divided
into three subseries to accommodate the restriction on the collection: the
Published Writings by Stone Subseries, the
Unpublished Writings by Stone Subseries
(RESTRICTED), and the Writings by Others Subseries
(RESTRICTED). Notably absent from this series are manuscripts of Stone's
books. Instead, the series contains either shorter published materials, such as
publicly delivered speeches, or working documents assembled for the creation of
larger works.
The Scrapbooks Series (RESTRICTED) houses
the contents of four scrapbooks assembled by Stone during the 1950s and 1960s.
They contain a number of clippings, programs, and some correspondence
pertaining to his time at the
New York Age, the
Washington Afro-American, the
Chicago Defender, and working for Adam
Clayton Powell, Jr. The series is especially useful for documenting Stone's
early career and his position as an outspoken African-American journalist and
defender of civil rights. Researchers interested in this period in Stone's life
should also consult the Clippings Series for more
materials from the period in question that are not present in the
scrapbooks.
The St. Louis Series is a small series
housing clippings and correspondence related to Stone's brief position as
ombudsman for the
St. Louis Post-Disptach, overseeing their
coverage of the 1997 mayoral election. The series is divided into a
Published Materials Subseries, which houses
clippings from the Post-Dispatch and related newspapers, and an
Unpublished Materials Subseries (RESTRICTED), in
which can be found correspondence, business documents, and responses to several
readers polls conducted by Stone.
In the Subject Files Series can be found
Stone's research files on different subject areas, arranged alphabetically. The
files contain primarily clippings, but also some correspondence and notes.
Several subcategories that are heavily represented and should be mentioned are
the files on censorship and the first amendment, on the criminal justice
system, on standardized testing, and on materials relating to his time at
UNC-Chapel Hill. There are also numerous files related to racial politics in
the U.S., but these files are less discrete than the categories described above
and are to be found throughout the series rather than under a specific
subheading.
The Teaching Materials Series (RESTRICTED)
contains a small amount of material pertaining to Stone's teaching career. The
bulk of this series comes from his time at UNC-Chapel Hill, and includes
syllabi, exams, assignments, student papers, and other teaching paperwork. Most
heavily represented in this regard is Stone's popular class on censorship, for
which there are multiple syllabi and exams from different years and
semesters.
Finally, the Audiovisual Materials Series
(RESTRICTED) collects photographs touching on all aspects of Stone's
life, from press photos of Stone and Adam Clayton Powell, Jr. to family
portraits. Also included in this series are a videotape of a documentary about
Powell, press passes and identification badges, and an election pin kept by
Stone.

Correspondence Series (RESTRICTED),

(5 boxes)
Contains Stone's correspondence from the 1960s to 2005. In keeping
with Stone's original arrangement, some folders are categorized by topic, while
others simply house general correspondence within a particular span of
years.
Of particular interest in the topical folders is the
correspondence relating to black political power in America (the topic, not
only Stone's book of the same title) and the correspondence with
Edward M. Ryder, an inmate at the State
Correctional Facility at Graterford, PA from 1973-1993. Also to be found are
two folders of correspondence from a number of individuals related to Stone's
role as negotiator in the hostage crisis at Graterford in 1981.
The bulk of the remainder of the series is made up of two
categories. One is simply general correspondence. These folders contain
correspondence from such figures as
Martin Luther King, Jr.,
Jackie Robinson,
Nelson A. Rockefeller,
Barry Goldwater,
LeRoi Jones,
Edward Kennedy, and others, along with family
correspondence and business correspondence both to and from Stone from the
1960s to the 2000s. The other is correspondence specific to Stone's position as
editor and columnist at the
Philadelphia Daily News, which
includes internal memos and letters with other staff members, letters from
readers, and business letters relevant to his position at the newspaper.
Researchers should be aware that these appear to be rough categorizations on
Stone's part, and that there are a few letters specific to his role at the
Philadelphia Daily News in the general
correspondence folders, and some general business correspondence in the
Philadelphia Daily News folders.
It should also be noted that correspondence on particular topics
can also be found in relevant series. For instance, correspondence with or
relating to Adam Clayton Powell, Jr. is to be found in that series. Researchers
interested in Stone's role with the Graterford crisis and his correspondence
with prison inmates should also consult the
"Criminal justice system"
files in
the Subject Files Series.

designated by the bulk dates for each scrapbook, and has been supplied by the
archivist with an appropriate name. The first houses clippings, mostly from the
New York Age, documenting Stone's time
with that newspaper. The second includes clippings, programs, and
correspondence collected while Stone was correspondent for and editor of the
Washington Afro-American. It also
contains several columns by Stone in the
New York Citizen-Call, letters by
Stone that appeared in the
New York Times and
The Washington, D.C. Evening Star, and
a number of clippings about Stone from various Washington and national
newspapers. The third scrapbook houses clippings, programs, leaflets, and a
small amount of correspondence documenting Stone's time in Chicago, where he
was columnist for and editor of the
Chicago Defender and, later,
television commentator for
WCIU Chicago. The Powell scrapbook
documents Stone's activities as press secretary and special assistant to Adam
Clayton Powell, Jr. and contains clippings, correspondence, programs, leaflets,
and flyers, as well as a folder of miscellaneous articles and media appearances
by Stone spanning from the 1960s to 1990.
Original order of scrapbook pages maintained within each folder.
Scrapbooks are listed in chronological order according to bulk dates.

Subject Files Series,
1941-2005
and undated,
bulk 1968-2005
(30 boxes)
Houses Stone's extensive files in many different subject areas,
consisting primarily of clippings, but also containing notes on the topics and
some minimal correspondence. The folders have been preserved as closely to
their original order as possible, and Stone's titles have been retained. The
exception to this is a set of subheadings that were added to four groups of
folders that were physically and topically associated by Stone, and which are
of particular interest. These are his files on censorship and the first
amendment, on which he intended to write a book (
Free Speech and Jealous Mistresses,
unpublished) and taught regularly throughout the 1990s; on the criminal justice
system, focused around issues of racism within that system and on Stone's
activities as a mediator between the police and inmates or suspected criminals;
on the politics and racial bias of standardized testing, an issue with which he
became involved while working with the
Education and Labor Committee under Adam Clayton
Powell, Jr.; and files relating to his academic career, activities, and
institutional politics at the University of North Carolina. These can be found
under the subheadings
"Censorship,"
"Criminal justice system,"
"Standardized testing,"
and
"UNC"
respectively. The files on
censorship are especially numerous (filling six archival boxes) and contain
extensive information on censorship law, types of censorship, and individual
instances of censorship. Other topics in this series include black political
power in the U.S., minority journalists, women's issues and feminism,
affirmative action, religion, electoral politics in the U.S., journalism,
multiculturalism and political correctness, higher education, gay and lesbian
issues, Philadelphia politics and politicians, and racial politics more
generally. There are also significant files on such figures as Mumia Abu Jamal,
Jesse Jackson, Martin Luther King Jr., Camille Paglia, Colin Powell, and
Clarence Thomas. Subject files relating specifically to Stone's duties as
special assistant to Adam Clayton Powell, Jr. can be found in the Adam Clayton
Powell, Jr. Congressional Series.
