 Black Mass Communications Project (University of Massachusetts Amherst) Black Mass Communications Project Collection 1965/1996 1971-1983 RG 045/30 B4 21 boxes (17.67 linear ft.) Robert S. Cox Special Collections and University Archives Research Center, W.E.B. Du Bois Library, University of Massachusetts Amherst The Black Mass Communications Project was founded as an educational and informational outlet for Black students at UMass Amherst in October of 1970 and authorized in the following year as a Registered Student Organization. Over the years, BCMP played various roles on campus, including hosting cultural events, lectures, workshops, and social gatherings. Many of its early members were also affiliated with the student radio station WMUA, and throughout the 1970s, the organization played a prominent role in providing programming to the station highlighting African American music and current affairs. English.

The Black Mass Communications Project (BMCP) was formed in October 1970 as students of color at the University of Massachusetts – Amherst (UMass) were organizing and protesting around several shared concerns, both on campus as well as in larger social movements nationwide. As one of the earliest Black-organized student organizations formed at UMass, BMCP students aimed (and continue) to provide a forum for workshops, events, lectures, social gatherings, and radio programming emphasizing Black representation and connections. The record of the BMCP is historically significant both on campus and within the context of the larger Civil Rights and Black Power movements of the late 1960s and early 1970s

The events that led to the formation of BMCP began on Saturday September 21, 1968 when a fight broke out between white and black students following a party at Mills House, a dorm on the campus of the University of Massachusetts Amherst. The event was sponsored by the Student Afro-American Student Association (SAASA), which met there. A Black student was accused of using foul language by a white student and a fight broke out. This escalated into a near riot after several students appeared to get involved. Rumors circulated around campus and the situation continued to escalate. Assistant Dean Mark Noffsinger de-escalated the situation and met with the Black students at Mills House until 4am Sunday morning. Later that afternoon, Sunday September 22, two meetings were held to discuss the incident that included Dean of Students William Field.

Later that same semester following the 1968 election, an alleged racial incident between white and black students led to the march of 85 students and faculty allies to the Whitmore administration building. The students brought a list of demands to address racism on campus. The list of 21 demands included several items of import to the students including the disarming of campus police, the hiring of more Black officers, sensitivity orientations for students, the establishment of a comprehensive black studies program, and permission to use Mills House as a Black cultural center. The SAASA subsequently discovered that the incident that triggered the protest was a hoax, but the underlying concerns about racism on campus remained. This incident, which exacerbated already existing tensions between Black and white students on the predominately white campus, set off a course of events that would lead to several changes on campus, including the creation of the Black Mass Communications Project or BMCP.

14 months later in Feb 1970, no action had been taken by university administration to address the student’s concerns. Students at UMass and the other campuses in the 5 colleges (Mount Holyoke, Hampshire, Smith, and Amherst College) joined together to address the fact that student demands were not being taken seriously. On Feb 18, 150-200 students took over buildings at Amherst College. UMass students took over Mills House, the dorm where the incident happened in 1968, and demanded that it be turned into a Black cultural center. Mills was chosen due to the fact that it was already the meeting place for the Student Afro-American Student Association and it was transitioning from being a dorm to a student center. Chancellor Oswald Tippo made the decision to agree to these demands on March 1, 1970 and Mills House was rechristened New Africa House, a designation that remains today.

Amherst, Massachusetts is located in the western part of Massachusetts. Although the region has urban centers, Amherst is somewhat rural, reflecting the agricultural origins of UMass as the Massachusetts Agricultural College, which was founded as part of the Morrill Act following the Civil War. Although there were Black students on campus as early as the late 1890s, there were very few by the late 1960s. It was at this time that Randolph Bromery, a geologist, and later, UMass’ first African American Chancellor, was hired by UMass’ first Black faculty member, Edwin Driver, who was hired by the Sociology Department in 1948. Nearly twenty years after Driver's arrival, Bromery was only the sixth African American faculty member hired by the University. But even more remarkable was the fact that in 1967 there were only 36 African American students among a population of nearly 17,000. When the assassination of Martin Luther King in April of 1968 compelled the university to respond to the lack of diversity, a committee was formed called the Committee for the Collegiate Education of Black Students (CCEBS). By 1969, the Black student population had risen to 180 freshman and about 300 in total. By 1975 it was approximately 600.

Out of this campus turmoil, several campus cultural and political organizations were formed including the W. E. B. Du Bois Dept. of Afro-Am Studies (1970), New Africa House Cultural Center, the CCEBS program, Drum magazine, Nummo News, Ahora, Third World Women’s organization, African American Students Association, Che Lumumba School for Truth, the Malcolm X Center, the New World Center and Third World Caucus within Student Senate and BMCP.

Black Mass Communications Project was formed in October of 1970 by Lorne Cress Love, Pat Gardner, Tom Sellers, and others. Lorne Cress Love was a veteran civil rights activist from Chicago, who helmed the Southern Nonviolent Coordinating Committee chapter there. She coordinated rides from Chicago to the March on Washington in 1963, and participated in Freedom Summer in Mississippi in 1964. She was hired by UMass in 1970, helping to build New Africa House (formerly known as Mills House). BMCP's focus was music, news, interviews, lectures, conference proceedings and rebroadcasting recordings from subscription services such as the Pacifica Radio Network and the Southern Christian Leadership Council, who had a series called Martin Luther King Speaks. They would sometimes broadcast live speeches by distinguished Black visitors to Western Mass such as Angela Davis, Dick Gregory, Shirley Chisholm and others. In 1970, BMCP members Lorne Cress Love and Tom Sellers traveled to New Haven, CT to cover a press conference given by Huey Newton of the Black Panther Party during the trial of Bobby Seale and Erika Huggins.

BMCP's flagship show was entitled Colors, a showcase of the Black experience through speeches, music, interviews, and public affairs and Ujamaa-Drum. Produced initially at the facilities of 88.5 WFCR, the regional NPR affiliate which had facilities on the UMass campus, it later settled into regular slots on 91.1 WMUA, the student radio station. Their original time slots consisted of three 3 hour slots, 7-10pm Mon, Wed, Fri and steadily grew to 15.5 hours per week. Initially, the organization had no funding. Once they became a registered student organization, they received funding from the Student Government Association with a FY 1972 budget of approx. $14,000. This was used for equipment, tape and, eventually, salaries. At its peak in the late 1970s it reached almost 140 hours of airtime per week, which was over half the airtime on WMUA.

In 1972, WMUA began broadcasting over the summer for the first time. BMCP-produced shows such as Latin Contrast and Sunday Gospel that debuted over the summer were then added to the regular WMUA rotation as an effort to appease requests by minority students to have more “third world” programming on the station. This created tensions in the station between white students who wanted to “integrate” black music and public affairs into the general schedule and BMCP members, who felt it was important to have a platform and space where Black students could discuss matters of importance to them and the wider community without editorial interference from the station’s governing body.

Students would initially train at WEBD, the low-power FM station that operated out of New Africa House. Here, students would get their initial training in equipment, production, and fulfilling the requirements of obtaining a Federal Communications Commission 3rd class license before moving over to WMUA.

This campus debate over accurate and community-driven representation and coverage of women and minorities spilled over into all campus media. In April of 1974 at the Massachusetts Daily Collegian, a Black Affairs section and a supplement called Nummo News were created to cover Black issues following charges of racism and lack of coverage. This pressure from underrepresented students on campus found its way into the radio station as well. Women from a student group called the Women’s Media Project met with management of WMUA during the spring of 1974 to discuss limited airtime, pre-emption of shows without notice and lack of training sessions for women. There was some disagreement about how receptive the station leadership was to the women’s requests, who then submitted grievances to the Student Senate. This was happening simultaneously as negotiations with BMCP and other Third World student groups were taking place to establish a Third World Affairs Director at the station. At one point, the women and the Third World Affairs group submitted a letter to the SGA accusing the station of non-compliance with Affirmative Action guidelines. WMUA’s Board of Directors disagreed. The SGA responded by threatening to freeze the station budget and then suspended the station’s constitution over the summer. They then established a provisional government. Eventually, the issues were sorted out to everyone’s satisfaction, but it established a dynamic that followed BMCP throughout its history.

For example, in February of 1979 there was an incident in which police were called to the station to remove BMCP members who had a dispute over a timeslot that was revoked. Eric Myers, the Station Manager at the time, denied the claim of the students.

BMCP continues to operate as of 2025, however in the late 1980s and 1990s they became more focused on music (mostly hip-hop) and less on news/public affairs. They sponsored live hip-hop shows and lectures on campus but were mostly known for throwing large parties on campus such as the Funk-A-Thon and the Jeans n' T-Shirt dance. Eventually, the BMCP slots on WMUA disappeared completely.

The BCMP collection consists of administrative records such as minutes, meeting notes, budgets, planning documents, and promotional items like fliers and programs. There is also a small collection of reference materials such as magazines and clippings.

The bulk of the collection consists of 497 reel to reel audiotapes and 7 videotapes of material recorded or collected by BMCP from the 1970s to early 1980s. Included is a range of locally-produced public affairs, cultural, and music programming, as well as tapes received as part of a subscription service with the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and Pacifica Radio.

The audio record of BMCP is historically significant both at UMass Amherst and within the context of the larger civil rights movement of the late 1960s and early 1970s, providing important artistic, cultural, political, and academic value to researchers, teachers, artists, and students. As one of the earliest Black-organized organizations on campus, BMCP students sought to provide a platform for radio programming emphasizing Black representation and connection. These recordings provide a critical audio record of the Black diaspora that is in conversation with existing student media, and other archival materials that contribute to an understanding of Black student life. Some examples include lectures and speeches by Angela Davis, Huey Newton, Shirley Chisholm, and Soñia Sanchez; coverage of the New Haven Black Panther Trial, apartheid, prison reform, the Black Arts Movement, and other contemporary issues related to Black life and culture. Geographic regions represented in the audio material includes: Western and Eastern Massachusetts, Georgia, California, New York, Washington D.C., Illinois, Puerto Rico, Chile, Zimbabwe, Ghana, Cuba, China, Guinea-Bissau, Mali, and South Africa.

Materials are arranged chronologically by year/month/day, then alphabetically by title.

The collection is open for research.

Gift of John Bracey, 2013

Tapes were created by BMCP at WMUA and WFCR studios then transferred to the BMCP office in the Student Union. They were picked up in 2013 by then University Archivist Aaron Rubinstein. The transfer was coordinated by John Bracey. Two boxes of paper materials were discovered in the archives in 2025 by University Archivist Libby Coyner. The belief is that these were also donated by John Bracey.

Contains educational and informational material collected by BMCP such as manuals, newspaper clippings, newsletters, pamphlets, magazines and catalogs.

 Series 4: Recordings 1965-2025 17 boxes, (17 linear feet)

The Recordings series, which encompasses the bulk of the collection, consists of approximately 497 reel to reel audiotapes and 7 videotapes created by members of BMCP or received via radio subscription services such as the United Nations Radio Division, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), Urban Beat, and the Pacifica Radio Network between 1970 and 1984. The subject matter in the recordings offers a wide range of historically relevant topics that are significant both to UMass Amherst and the larger Black diaspora as it was in the late 1960s and 1970s. The recordings provide a critical audio record that is in conversation with existing student media, and other archival materials that contribute to an understanding of Black student and community life.

The material contained on the recordings created by BMCP is a mix of raw unedited production tapes, recordings of live speaking or music events, unscoped airchecks, phone interviews, public service announcements, and press conferences. Some of the live events that were recorded across multiple tapes have been lost and only contain portions of the event. This is noted whenever possible. In addition to the audiotapes, there are a handful of videotapes of BMCP events that were primarily recorded in the early 1990s. There is also a growing collection of oral histories, conducted by SCUA staff beginning in 2025, with former BMCP participants.

The tapes received from SCLC are from a series they produced called Martin Luther King Speaks and primarily contain recordings of speeches by King. Occasionally there are contemporary topics discussed as well. The tapes from Pacifica reflect the cultural and political issues relevant to the Black community of the early 1970s. With their Berkeley location, there is a focus on California events and people such as an interview with Oakland-based Black Panther Bobby Seale and the death of George Jackson.
