In the 1990's, the Krueger-Scott Cultural Center undertook an ambitious oral history project that conducted over 120 interviews with African-American Newarkers who had migrated to the city between 1910 and 1970. One of the interviews in the collection is with Coyt Jones, who arrived in Newark from South Carolina in 1927. The many things Mr. Jones talks about in his interview include his son, the poet and activist Leroi Jones/Amiri Baraka, who is also the father of the current mayor of Newark, Ras Baraka. Theirs is one in a series of stories about families who migrated to Newark; the people who came and stayed.
