The West Coast counterculture weekly <em>Berkeley Barb</em> provided much of the material for this print, which highlights the struggle for gay rights and racial equality at the start of the 1970s. The article “Not a Quiet Affair” celebrates opposition to California Department of Education laws that barred homosexuals from teaching; “How Busing Can Work,” from the <em>Minneapolis Tribune</em>, reports on municipal efforts to desegregate public schools.

The Museum regularly researches its objects and their collecting histories, updating its records to reflect new information. We also strive to catalogue works of art using language that is consistent with how people, subjects, artists, and cultures describe themselves. As this effort is ongoing, the Museum’s records may be incomplete or contain terms that are no longer acceptable. We welcome your feedback, questions, and additional information that you feel may be useful to us. Email us at collectionsinfo@princeton.edu.
