Author of Aliened American: A Biography of William Howard Day, 1825-1900; Legendary Locals of Harrisburg; and Biography of an Antislavery City: Antislavery Advocates, Abolitionists, and Underground Railroad Activists
The demise of the so-called Jim Crow laws in 1964 and 1965 and the victory of the civil rights movement rang hollow in the ears of most African Americans. While segregation was practiced in many places of the South, systemic forms of racism permeated northern society. As distrust pervaded African American communities after 1966, the maligned Black Panther Party filled the void, especially among baby boomers who moved the African American liberation movement further to the left. During this difficult time, when the country was torn apart by issues of race and poverty, as well as the escalation of the Vietnam War, unrest seemed to prevail at a myriad of colleges and universities across the United States where newly formed Afro-American societies and black student unions pressed for pedagogical change suited to the liberation doctrine coming from the black left. Spring 1969 was a particularly explosive semester as African American students occupied administrative buildings and common areas at both historically black and predominantly white colleges on the East Coast. In This Is the Rat Speaking, author Todd M. Mealy reconstructs the May 22, 1969, black student uprising at Franklin and Marshall College. Using Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and Franklin and Marshall College as his setting, Mealy revisits the role and influence of the Black Panthers and delves into how activism for black studies curriculum emerged within the black power movement of the 1960s. Based on oral history testimony, investigation reports, and judicial records, Mealy provokes discussion from different perspectives.

Описание:
The multifaceted story of the UNCF.
Winner, Outstanding Publication Award, American Educational Research Association
Etched into America's consciousness is the United Negro College Fund's phrase A mind is a terrible thing to waste. This book tells the story of the organization's efforts on behalf of black colleges against the backdrop of the cold war and the civil rights movement.
Founded during the post-World War II period as a successor to white philanthropic efforts, the UNCF nevertheless retained vestiges of outside control. In its early years, the organization was restrained in its critique of segregation and reluctant to lodge a challenge against institutional and cultural racism. Through cogent analysis of written and oral histories, archival documents, and the group's outreach and advertising campaigns, historian Marybeth Gasman examines the UNCF's struggle to create an identity apart from white benefactors and to evolve into a vehicle for black empowerment.
The first history of the UNCF, Envisioning Black Colleges draws attention to the significance of black colleges in higher education and the role they played in Americans' struggle for equality.

Описание: Black male collegians are not a homogenous group, and this valuable collection focuses on the rarely acknowledged differences among them. Each chapter focuses on challenges unqiue to subcultures and how to recruit, support, and retain them.
This gathering of sixty images, along with the essays that frame them, gives us a new way to think about the too often troubled status of historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs). The bell in the clock tower at Atlanta s Morris Brown College bears an inscription about the ideal of educational access, that it be without regard to sex, race, or color. Yet most of the Morris Brown campus has lain silent for more than a decade. Established in 1881, it was all but shut down in 2002 after years of fiscal hardship were capped by a mismanagement scandal. Pride still runs high among its alumni, however, and its current leadership vows to revive the school. Meanwhile, as Andrew Feiler s stirring photos show, Morris Brown is literally falling apart.
In the spirit of those photographers who have documented the physical decline of our valued institutions from small family farms to entire cities Feiler points his lens at one embattled place and dares us to look away. Aiming to open minds, trigger emotion, stimulate discussion, and, perhaps, prompt action, his images project a new layer of meaning onto the Morris Brown story. We see classrooms, dorms, gym facilities, and other spaces no longer alive with students, faculty, and staff but rather mired in a state of uncertainty where hopes of normality s return mutely battle a host of unwelcome alternate futures. We see how time passes without regard for academic years, regular maintenance cycles, or the other comings and goings that would ordinarily call attention to the leaks, invading animals, acts of vandalism, and other forces working to peel the paint from Morris Brown s walls, buckle its floors, and molder its furnishings. We see garbage piling up alongside sports trophies, scientific equipment, and other vestiges of the prouder past we would rather remember.
Feiler s photos are accompanied by writings that address the college s profound impact on one family, history and memory, the documentary and narrative powers of photography, and the place of HBCUs in American public life. Images and text combine powerfully to show us what happens when a place meant to be honored is left to its own."

Описание: The Transformation of Black Music explores the full spectrum of black musics in the Diaspora, spanning four continents and a full millennium. Authors Samuel Floyd, Melanie Zeck, and Guthrie Ramsey discuss how these musics have blossomed, permeated existing traditions, and created new practices. A companion to The Power of Black Music, this book brilliantly situates emerging, morphing, and influential black musics in a broader framework of cultural,political, and social histories. Filling in critical gaps thus far virtually ignored, this book will not only explore the inestimable value of black musics, but also the relevance of black music research to all musical endeavors.
