Arrangement

Files are arranged by location and then chronologically for each location. A handful of folders arranged at the end of the subseries contain content from multiple locations, and a few items filed by personal name and subject.

Additional material related to the Cooking School may be found elsewhere in the morgue filed under the names of prize winners, demonstrators, and other notable people.

Business records related to the AFRO Cooking School are found in the AFRO Business Records collection.

Processing Information

The AFRO Subjects series of the AFRO Morgue files has been processed in tandem with the morgue processing project that began in 2023. Material in this series brings together files formerly scattered across the morgue. In creating this arrangement, in some cases material once filed under an inidividual's name may be filed under a more general subject heading related to the AFRO program.

Processing of the AFRO Subjects series of the AFRO Morgue files is ongoing. As each subject is completed, metadata is added to the finding aid.

Sources consulted for the historical notes are cited at the subseries level.
