Black Women in the Middle West Project.
Biographical notes:
The Black Women in the Middle West (BWMW) Project collected documentation on African American women and organizations in Illinois and Indiana. The project grew out of efforts of the National Council of Negro Women (NCNW), Indianapolis Section to collect materials (ca. 1977-1981). Darlene Clark Hine became project director and obtained funding from the National Endowment for the Humanities to plan (ca. 1982-1983) and implement (ca. 1984-1985) the BWMW Project, whose collecting scope was expanded to include Indiana and Illinois. The project resulted in the publication of Black Women in the Middle West Project: A Comprehensive Resource Guide Illinois and Indiana (1986).
