The James and Grace Lee Boggs Photographs and Audio-Visual Materials document the personal and philosophical interests of the couple throughout their respective lives. Featured are audio recordings of lectures, sermons, and interviews by Rev. Albert Cleage (Jaramogi Abebe Agyeman), Malcolm X, Milton Henry, and C.L.R. James, among others, and recordings from entities such as the Freedom NOW Party and the National Grassroots Leadership Conference. Though not as heavily represented, recordings of both James and Grace Lee Boggs offer insight into the evolution of their personal beliefs. Photographs are primarily of a personal nature, and include numerous snapshots. Graphic materials include buttons and stickers pertinent to issues involving Detroit politics and community activism, as well as
a poster advertising a lecture that James Boggs gave in Italy, likely in 1968.
