Scope and Content Note The subseries consists of writings by Michael Lomax from 1971-2004 including speeches, articles, book chapters, reviews, talking points for interviews and media appearances, drafts of an unpublished novel, and his doctoral dissertation, Countée Cullen: From the Dark Tower. The overwhelming majority of the series are speeches given during his tenure as Chairman of the Fulton County Board of Commissioners. These include welcome messages and greetings to conferences and meetings being held in Atlanta, remarks and formal proclamations at community events, and more substantive addresses such as those made at commencements. Many of the speech texts are attached to advance sheets and correspondence about the events, and often consist only of talking points or briefing papers drafted by members of Lomax's staff. There are additional campaign speeches made during years when Lomax was running for Mayor of Atlanta or the Board of Commissioners, and addresses given as President of Dillard University (New Orleans, Louisiana). Articles, book chapters, and reviews contain Lomax's scholarly work on topics of African American literature and culture, as well as several opinion pieces on local politics in Atlanta and New Orleans. The subseries also contains drafts of an unpublished novel, Fantasies of Affirmation: The 1920s Novel of Negro Life (1971), and a small number of notebooks and notes for unidentified works. There are a small number of writings by Pearl Cleage, Almena Lomax, Cheryl Lomax, and Lucius Lomax, IV, including an essay Cleage wrote in support of Lomax's 1993 campaign for Mayor or Atlanta. Additional writings by Almena Lomax are available in Series 6: Born digital material.

Arrangement Note Arranged by writing type, then in chronological or alphabetical order.

Scope and Content Note The subseries consists of other professional papers including agendas, appointment books, board and committee files, teaching and university files, and the records of the Amistad Corporation from 1970-2007. Agendas and appointment books include information about Lomax's personal and professional schedule. Board and committee files document Lomax's service on the Boards of Directors of the National Black Arts Festival, Teach for America, the Studio Museum in Harlem, and the United Way. They primarily include memoranda to the board members and board books for meetings. Teaching and university files document Lomax's early teaching career and primarily include administrative records from the Atlanta University Center, Afro-American Studies Program. There are also administrative records relating to Lomax's employment as a lecturer at Morehouse College and Spelman College, but there are very few files documenting Lomax's teaching at those institutions. There is one folder of records relating to Lomax's tenure as President of Dillard University in New Orleans, as well as two folders documenting transition plans after he became President and CEO of the United Negro College Fund. Amistad Corporation records consist of financial and other administrative documents such as invoices, tax returns, payroll records, correspondence, meeting minutes, insurance records, manuals, and legal records. The records reflect the operations of the company, including the acquisition of the Franklin-Strickland Funeral Home and the merger of Amistad Corporation with Wilson Financial Group. The subseries includes records of the Franklin-Strickland Funeral Home from before the acquisition, as well as documents relating to Amistad's plan for closing following the merger with Wilson.

Arrangement Note Arranged by record type, then in alphabetical order.

Restrictions on Access Special restrictions apply: The Amistad Corporation records are closed to patrons until 2046.

96 Michael Lomax papers, 1772-2010 [bulk 1965-2010] Manuscript Collection No. 785 Series 6 Born digital material, circa 1989-2010 Box BD1

Scope and Content Note The series consists of born digital material including financial records of the Fulton County Board of Commissioners, writings by Almena Lomax, and photographs of the Studio Museum in Harlem trip to Venice, Italy. The Fulton County Board of Commissioners financial records consist entirely of spreadsheets. Writings by Almena Lomax contain essays as well as novels such as The Women of Montgomery. The original digital media consists of three compact disks, five 3.5" floppy disks, and eight 5.25" floppy disks.

Arrangement Note Arranged in alphabetical order.

Appraisal Note Blank floppy disks have been discarded.

Processing Born digital materials were processed by Sarah Quigley and Dorothy Waugh in 2017. Quigley and Waugh created images of twelve floppy disks using a Kryoflux and three compact disks using Guymager. Two additional floppy disks could not be imaged. Four floppy disks were blank and no data could be recovered from seven other disks due to degradation. Master copies of the images were ingested into a Fedora repository at Emory University for long-term preservation. Individual files were extracted from the disk images using FTK Imager and were scanned for viruses using McAfee's anti-virus software. The extracted files consist of Microsoft Word documents, Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, Microsoft Power Point presentations, dBase files, and photographs. The Microsoft Word files were migrated to PDF for access and use copies were made of the photographs in their original format. Spreadsheets were migrated from dBase to Microsoft Excel for access. Two blank spreadsheets and one spreadsheet that could not be rendered are not accessible. Power point files, Excel spreadsheets, and some Microsoft Word documents, all relating to the United Negro College Fund, could not be rendered and are not accessible. Additionally, two of the compact disks contained duplicate files and only one set of files is accessible. File names have been retained, but converting the Microsoft Word files to PDF changed the file dates.
