Book Description
In 'The Ballotless Victim of One-Party Governments' by Archibald Henry Grimké, the author explores the impact of one-party political systems on marginalized communities. Written in a persuasive and informative style, Grimké delves into the consequences of a lack of political representation for African Americans, shedding light on the injustices they face. Set in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the book provides a historical context for understanding the struggles of minority groups during this time period. Grimké's powerful rhetoric and insightful analysis make this a compelling read for anyone interested in political history and social justice issues. Archibald Henry Grimké, a prominent African American intellectual and civil rights activist, drew upon his own experiences and observations to write this book. As a biracial man born into slavery, Grimké was deeply familiar with the challenges faced by marginalized communities in America. His background as a lawyer and diplomat further strengthened his arguments and added credibility to his work. I highly recommend 'The Ballotless Victim of One-Party Governments' to readers interested in the intersection of politics, race, and social inequality. Grimké's thorough examination of the flaws within one-party systems offers valuable insights that are still relevant today.

Pan-African Chronology I
Author: Everett Jenkins, Jr.Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476608857
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 449
Book Description
The 1400s were a pivotal time in the history of Africans. The Songhai Empire rose to prominence and new city-states arose in Hausaland, Yorubaland and Benin. One of the most significant developments, however, was European and Asian exploration of the continent and the rapid expansion of the slave trade. By the end of the century, African slaves could be found from India to the Indies, and the foundation was laid for a peculiar institution that would last for over 400 years. From the time of the first European expeditions to Africa to the end of slavery in the United States, this work chronicles the most significant events in African, Pan-African and African American history. Many of the entries (e.g., Columbus' "discovery" of America and the death of Toussaint L'Ouverture) are supplemented by brief historical accounts that set the event in context. There are extensive see references to related happenings.

Pan-African Chronology II
Author: Everett Jenkins, Jr.Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476608865
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 581
Book Description
This continuation volume of the Pan-African Chronology set covers the most significant events in the African diaspora from the end of the American Civil War through the pre-World War I years. This was a time of great change for black Americans--Reconstruction, the founding of the NAACP, the formation of the separate but equal doctrine, and the migration of blacks from the rural South to Northern cities. The eradication of slavery as a legalized institution was finally realized in the Americas, while the struggle to end it in Asia was also taking place. European colonialism in Africa was accelerated, ironically coinciding with humanitarian efforts to end the slave trade on the African continent. These events and many others are covered here.
Racism in the United States
Author: Meyer WeinbergPublisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 0313064601
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 704
Book Description
This volume represents the most comprehensive book-length bibliography on the subject of racism available in the United States. Compiler Meyer Weinberg has surveyed a wide-ranging group of material and classified it under 87 subject headings, drawing on articles, books, congressional hearings and reports, theses and dissertations, research reports, and investigative journalism. Historical references cover the long history of racism, while the heightened awareness and activity of the recent past is also addressed in detail. In addition to works that fit the narrow definition of racism as a mode of oppression or group denial of rights based on color, Weinberg includes references dealing with sexism, antisemitism, economic exploitation, and similar forms of dehumanization. References are grouped under a series of subject headings that include Civil Rights, Desegregation, Housing, Socialism and Racism, Unemployment, and Violence against Minorities. Items which do not have self-explanatory titles are annotated, and virtually every section is thoroughly cross-referenced. Also included is one section of carefully selected references on racism in countries other than the United States. Unlike the remainder of the book, this section is not comprehensive, but rather provides an opportunity to view racism comparatively. The volume concludes with an author index. This work will be a significant addition to both academic and public libraries, as well as an important resource for courses in racism, sociology, and black history.
Race, Social Science and the Crisis of Manhood, 1890-1970
Author: Malinda A. LindquistPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0415517435
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
We need look no further than our local and national newspapers to see that black males are in a state of crisis in the United States. This book explains not only how we have come to tell the story of the young black male crisis, but examines the gender of the American social science tradition from its white male supremacist foundations. This is a story of pioneering black social scientists as much as it is a history of the changing perceptions, ideals, and shifting depictions of black and white manhood over nearly a century. Offering a fresh perspective on the history of ideas of black manhood, author Malinda Lindquist builds upon the foundational works of gender, intellectual, and African American historians, as well as literary critics, arguing that much of what we think we know about black men is a product of how the social sciences have explicitly informed and subtly molded how we as a nation approach and answer the question, "Who are men?" She conveys how black social scientists’ theory of masculinist social change has been reduced over the decades from a wide-ranging political, cultural, scientific, and economic agenda to combat white male supremacy to an ever diminishing vision of the race crisis as a problem of the young black male that barely engages with the broader white male supremacist traditions of institutionalized violence, social injustice, and economic inequality. Until this masculinist social science tradition is replaced with a gender-neutral vision of democratic social change and a commitment to a radical equality of opportunity and outcome, we are likely to continue to identify black boys as the problem rather than as a provocative, masculinist, politically-potent symptom of the continuing significance of race and class in a troubled nation.
