Inscribed by the author: "To Ambassador Edward J. Perkins - A hero of the modern civil rights movement as a man who has fought for opportunity, made the most of it and sought to leave a better future for those who come in his path. These stories will inspire you - I hope - as much as learning about your life and accomplishments inspired me. - Juan Williams 4-10-87." Juan Williams (b. 1954) is a political analyst known for his work on NPR and Fox News. Williams wrote Eyes on the Prize to accompany the Emmy Award-winning documentary series of the same name. Dr. Edward J. Perkins (1928-2020) served as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, as well as Liberia, South Africa, and Australia throughout his 25-year foreign service career. In 1986 President Ronald Reagan appointed Perkins to serve as ambassador to South Africa in hopes of fending off a congressional override to his veto of economic sanctions against the country. It was a controversial decision amidst apartheid in South Africa, and many Black leaders urged Perkins to not take the role. Perkins accepted the position and served until 1989, one year before Nelson Mandela was released from prison. He was appointed U.N. Ambassador by George H.W. Bush in 1992, serving for one year.

Phillips does not 'quite see what is to be done in the way of protest', although he finds that the 'statement that they "fail with audiences &c" is certainly false in fact, [last three words underlined] and therefore almost libellous'. Phillips considers 'the rest [] a matter of opinion. Perhaps even more false and absurd is the statement, or opinion, that they appeal only to the intellect. How about the Judas Scene and the Final Chorus of the "Apostles".' (The reference is to Elgar's oratorio 'The Kingdom', 1906.) Phillips ends by apologising for bothering Streatfeild, and asks in a postscript, 'How are you?'.…
