Activities Among Negroes was a regular column, authored by Delilah L. Beasley in the Oakland Tribune. Below are clippings of that column from newspaper.com archives, in chronological order.
Following Beasley's death in 1934, Thomas E. Fleming wrote a number of columns, and Lena M. Wysinger took over after that. It occasionally appeared as Activities Among Eastbay Negroes, News of Negro Activities, or other titles. Beginning in June 1941, it was known as Activities of Negroes.
Two quotes from her memorial, in Activities Among Negroes/Sun, Oct 14, 1934:
"The Clansman attitude during the exposition in San Francisco led her to request the Oakland Tribune to publish articles of outstanding Negro visitors and their achievements. Finally she was employed as a special feature writer of The Tribune, covering Activities Among Negroes, which proved an asset for better race relations."
"Mrs. Artieda made special mention of Miss Beasley's attitude and expression, "Others first, self last." Her special feature column from The Tribune are clipped and filed, preserved for reference and general information in the office of the Public Welfare League. Mesdames Spencer and Artieda expressed the desire that Miss Beasley's articles be placed in book form for future reference,"

My limited experience suggests that 1. is quick, but the OCR on newspapers.com doesn't always work well. 2. takes a bit longer to do up front, but requires much less correcting of text and formatting.
