JDR 3rd Audiovisual materials, 1946-1975

Processing information:

The Rockefeller Archive Center recognizes that our audiovisual materials may contain problematic language and/or content.

The films, videos, and/or sound in this collection have not been altered in any way. All titles and/or content are illustrative of the creator's original vision. As such, this audiovisual collection may contain discriminatory visual and/or aural content that is representative of racial, gendered, or ableist biases.

Accompanying description, most often with creator or donor-generated language and terminology, has to this point been retained and maintained "as received" by RAC with minimal archivist intervention or augmentation.

We acknowledge these problems and aim to cultivate inclusive representation and equity by reconsidering and enhancing our description of this audiovisual material with current sensibilities.
