Days of Hope
Author: Patricia Sullivan
Publisher: Univ of North Carolina Press
ISBN: 0807864897
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 646
Book Description
In the 1930s and 1940s, a loose alliance of blacks and whites, individuals and organizations, came together to offer a radical alternative to southern conservative politics. In Days of Hope, Patricia Sullivan traces the rise and fall of this movement. Using oral interviews with participants in this movement as well as documentary sources, she demonstrates that the New Deal era inspired a coalition of liberals, black activists, labor organizers, and Communist Party workers who sought to secure the New Deal's social and economic reforms by broadening the base of political participation in the South. From its origins in a nationwide campaign to abolish the poll tax, the initiative to expand democracy in the South developed into a regional drive to register voters and elect liberals to Congress. The NAACP, the CIO Political Action Committee, and the Southern Conference for Human Welfare coordinated this effort, which combined local activism with national strategic planning. Although it dramatically increased black voter registration and led to some electoral successes, the movement ultimately faltered, according to Sullivan, because the anti-Communist fervor of the Cold War and a militant backlash from segregationists fractured the coalition and marginalized southern radicals. Nevertheless, the story of this campaign invites a fuller consideration of the possibilities and constraints that have shaped the struggle for racial democracy in America since the 1930s.

365: A saying A Day of Hope and Mercy from Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), is a universal book that contains wisdom and compassion for all; regardless of your beliefs, gender or status in life. The book will give you an insight of the kindness of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and the tolerance and love he has for mankind. It is something that we should all inspire to have in our everyday life, and many great people of the past have mentioned and written about Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). Michael H. Hart book, The 100: A Ranking of the Most Influential Persons in History placed Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) as number one. George Bernard Shaw the famous writer mentioned that Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) must be called a savior for humanity. Mahatma Gandhi mentioned after reading the second volume of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) biography, he wished there was more to read of the great life. I hope my book allows for people to reflect on the religion of Islam and its genuinely true beauty. The book can be used year after year, enabling people to grow and develop as a person. Sections for people to read and ponder over; improving as a person, patience, modesty and cleansing your heart. Also the rights of other people in particular your family, neighbours and for people who are in need. He, who eats to his fill while his neighbour goes without food is not a true believer. (Baihaqi) The best of you are those who are slow to anger and swift to cool down. (Tirmidhi) The strong man is not the good wrestler; the strong man is the one who controls himself when he is angry. (Bukhari, Muslim) "The most hated person in the sight of Allah (swt) is the most quarrelsome person. (Bukhari) Do not consider any act of kindness insignificant, even meeting your brother with a cheerful face.
