Contains files kept by Nichols on a variety of topics, chiefly social issues. Folders of material related to close friend and lover Lige Clarke make up the largest grouping. These include some of Clarke's early school and personal papers as well as correspondence and information related to his violent death during a robbery in Mexico. Documentation of the lives and early deaths of activists Foster Gunnison and David Combs are included along with a file on the suspicious death of New York transvestite Marsha P. Johnson. Nichols' interest in anarchist philosophy and action is documented in the Anarchism grouping, and some information about the New Age group Renewal is housed in this subseries as well. Research material related to writings on Logan Carter and men's liberation complete the series. Organized alphabetically by subject.
