<bioghist>
<p>Ralph Johnson Bunche began his career as an educator and a political scientist, and later joined the United Nations, serving for the last
twenty years of his life as a special assistant to the General Secretary of that world body.</p>
<p>Born in 1904 of a working class family in Detroit, Michigan, Bunche went to live with his maternal grandmother in Los Angeles, California,
after the death of his mother in 1917. He graduated from Jefferson High School in 1921, the University of California at Los Angeles in 1927
and the Harvard Graduate School in 1928. In 1929 he was awarded the Ozias Goodwin Memorial Fellowship at Harvard. His doctoral dissertation
“French Administration in Togoland and Dahomey” received the Toppan Prize in 1934. Bunche conducted post-doctoral work in anthropology and
colonial policy at Northwestern University in 1936, the London School of Economics in 1937 and the University of Capetown, South Africa, in
1938. He was a member of Phi Beta Kappa.</p>
<p>Bunche met Ruth Harris in Washington, D.C. at the start of his career at Howard University in 1928. They married in 1930. Born in Montgomery,
Ala. in 1906 and the youngest of ten children, she graduated from Alabama State Normal and the Minor Normal School in Washington, D.C. where
she worked as a teacher in the city's public school. Her father, Charles Harris, was the chief mailing clerk and a prominent civic leader in
Montgomery. The Bunche couple had three children: Joan, Jane and Ralph, Jr.</p>
<p>Ralph Bunche joined the staff of Howard University in 1928, first as a lecturer and later as the chairman of the Department of Political
Science. While at Howard, he organized a series of conferences on the problems of African-American communities in the United States. He joined
various committees protesting discrimination by department stores and theaters, and organized his students to join picket lines in Washington,
D.C. In 1932, Bunche traveled to West and North Africa on a Rosenwald Fellowship to survey French colonial administration. His pamphlet “A
World View of Peace” was published in 1936. The same year, he received a two year Social Science Research Council Fellowship for field and
research work in Africa and Europe.</p>
<p>Bunche took a leave of absence from Howard University in 1938 and joined the staff of the Carnegie Corporation in conducting and organizing a
comprehensive survey of the social, political and economic status of blacks in the United States. Entitled “The Negro in America” and also
known as the “Carnegie-Myrdal Study,” the survey was directed by the Swedish sociologist Gunnar Myrdal, and was based on the field work and
the extensive research memoranda prepared by a staff of scholars and collaborators. In addition to coordinating various administrative aspects
of the project, Bunche conducted several field trips in the South in 1939 and was the author of four sizable research memoranda: “A Brief and
Tentative Analysis of Negro Leadership,” “Conceptions and Ideologies of the Negro Problem,” “The Political Status of the Negro” and “The
Programs, Ideologies, Tactics and Achievements of Negro Betterment and Interracial Organizations.” These works are quoted extensively in
Myrdal's <emph>American Dilemma</emph>(Harper & Brothers, 1944).</p>
<p>After the entrance of the United States in the Second World War, Bunche accepted a temporary assignment at the State Department, working
first as a Senior Research Analyst in the Office of Strategic Services and, in 1944, as an area specialist for Africa and dependent
territories. He became a member of the U.S. delegation at the founding of the United Nations in 1945, serving consecutively as Acting Chief of
the Division of Dependent Area Affairs, Commissioner of the Anglo-American Caribbean Commission and, in 1946, as Director of the Division of
Trusteeship.</p>
<p>Bunche joined the Permanent Secretariat of the United Nations in 1948 with the title of Principal Director of the Trusteeship Council. Known
also as Committee Four of the General Assembly, the Council supervised the administration of colonial territories formerly belonging to
Germany. These territories included French and British Togoland, the French and British Cameroons, the Belgian Congo, Ruanda-Urundi, New
Guinea and Western Samoa. He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his mediation of the Armistice Agreement between Israel and the Arab states
in 1948, and was also credited for his role in organizing the U.N. Green Berets. He also played a major role in the day to day work of the
organization, and enjoyed a wide reputation for his integrity, his commitment to world peace and his gift as a negotiator and administrator.
Gravely ill toward the end of his life, Ralph Bunche retired from the United Nations in 1971, the year of his death.</p>
<p>Ralph Bunche enjoyed wide prominence and respect both as a scholar and statesman. A political moderate, he believed in petitioning government
for justice but did not hesitate to march in protest when all else failed. During the 1960s, however, he came under attack for his apparent
lack of support and identification with the politics of protest and direct action advocated by the civil rights movement of that era. He was
also criticized for his role in the Congo after the failure of the U.N. peacekeeping force in preventing the overthrow and the assassination
of Patrice Lumumba. Bunche is honored today, nonetheless, as an outstanding world leader and as a role model in the African American
community.</p>

<p>The Ralph Bunche Papers document Bunche's personal life and professional career, from his enrollment at the University of California to his
