Audio recordings and full transcripts of 16 oral history interviews conducted with early leaders of the Minority Ministries Council (MMC). MMC was a department of the Mennonite Board of Missions that worked to strengthen and support racial and ethnic minority congregations, to assist the church in relating to minority communities, to serve as liaison between militant groups and the church, and to help the church understand and practice the radical discipleship of Jesus Christ.

Interviews were conducted as part of a 2017 reunion and conference that took place in Goshen, Indiana. The collection also contains administrative documentation for the project, including funding proposals, contact lists, schedules, promotional materials, photographs, and audio/video recordings of conference proceedings. Consent forms are available for some, but not all, of the interview participants.

Narrators include the following people: Conrado Hinojosa, Gracie Torres, Helen Brown, Hubert Brown, John Powell, Shirley Powell, John Ventura, José Ortíz, Lee Roy Berry, Jr., Lupe de León, Neftali Torres, Raymond L. Jackson, Seferina de León, Teodoro Chapa, Tito Guedea, and Tony Brown.
