Marjorie Rushing Baroni was born on August 16, 1924 to the sharecropping couple Percy and Clementine Loften Rushing. "Marge" was the oldest of five children. Eventually, the family moved into town in Natchez, Mississippi, where her father made a living as an automobile mechanic. She left high school at 17 before graduating, marrying Louis Baroni, the nineteen-year-old son of an Italian sharecropping family from Adams County. The first of their six children arrived within a year, and Baroni converted to Catholicism.
Marge Baroni read voraciously during her childhood, and her habit continued as an adult. Upon completing Dorothy Day's The Long Loneliness, she wrote the author and began a life-long correspondence and friendship that ended only with Day's death in 1980. Day was a leading activist in the Catholic Worker Movement which advocated peace and social justice while sponsoring soup kitchens and housing for the poor and homeless.
Baroni became the first editor of the women's page employed full-time at the Natchez Democrat, contributing reviews of books and covering local concerts and theatre events. By 1962, however, her conscience would no longer permit her to continue working at the white-owned newspaper that "purposely overlooked one-half the population, unless there was a murder, rape or robbery implicating a member of that community." As the Civil Rights Movement heated up in Mississippi, Baroni developed ties with local activists and organizations. In 1964, she took supplies to the area Freedom School, helped to integrate the public library, attended the Civil Rights Commission hearings in Natchez, and joined the Mississippi Council on Human Relations. The white society of Natchez, in turn, took notice of her stand, and began a campaign of ostracism against the entire Baroni family. The KKK made mention of her in their bulletins, and for a period the family lived in fear of violent reprisals.
Beginning in 1965, Baroni participated in the formation of the Adams-Jefferson Improvement Corporation, a community action group created to conform with Title II of the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964. Its initiatives included Head Start, adult literacy and job placement programs, and a credit union. In 1969, Baroni began a ten year association with Charles Evers, elected that year as the first black mayor of a biracial Mississippi town since Reconstruction.
Receiving a high school equivalency diploma in 1968, Baroni decided to pursue further education in the late 1970s, first attending the local Copiah-Lincoln Junior College and then the University of Southern Mississippi where she completed her B.A. in 1982. In remission from colon cancer, she returned to USM to work on a master's degree. Before she could complete her thesis, the cancer returned. Baroni died at the age of 61 on March 3, 1986.
Special Collections received the Baroni papers in a largely disorganized state. Thus, the material is organized in its 21 boxes according to either format or subject matter. Six boxes contain the correspondence of Baroni (organized chronologically), one box holds her newspaper clippings on diverse subjects, two boxes contain newsletters and journals she had retained in her keeping, one box houses two book manuscripts she received from acquaintances, and one box holds various spiral notebooks which contain a mix of journal entries, letter drafts, and autobiographical notes. The content of several boxes, however, depend upon particular topics: Catholicism, various organizations, the Baroni family, Marge Baroni's own writings, and the always helpful category "Miscellaneous."

Provenance
In 1998 while working on an oral history project regarding the first black Catholic Church in Mississippi -- Holy Family in Natchez -- author and photographer Susan Sullivan heard mention of Marge Baroni and her connection with Dorothy Day. Sullivan eventually met Louis Baroni who gave her a small box of correspondence and told her to do whatever she wanted with the papers. Sullivan became convinced of the significance of what she possessed after talking to the archivist of the Catholic Worker Collection in Marquette, Michigan who suggested that Sullivan should attempt to place Baroni's papers with either themselves or an archives within Mississippi. In the spring of 1999, Sullivan returned to Natchez and Louis Baroni who graciously permitted her to pack up several more boxes of his late wife's material. Within a few days, Sullivan had brought the collection to the Center for the Study of Southern Culture which in turn handed the Baroni papers over the Archives and Special Collections. In May of 1999, Jennifer Ford, Curator of the Mississippi Collection, traveled to Natchez where Louis Baroni granted permission for her to take possession of even more material.
