Color in the Classroom
Color in the Classroom describes the efforts of school reformers who worked to change American attitudes toward race during the first half of the twentieth century. Despite dense prose, the book effectively demarcates different phases in the effort to promote tolerance and combat bigotry. At the dawn of the twentieth century, when many Americans used the word race as a synonym for ethnicity, schools sought to Americanize immigrants recently arriv…
Jury Discrimination
Jury Discrimination is a book of many parts. In one, Christopher Waldrep tells how two lawyers cooperated in 1906 to achieve, if only for a brief time, the racial integration of juries in Mississippi. This story is told in accessible prose that will appeal to general readers. Other parts of the book deal with the notion that defendants have a right to be tried by a jury of their peers; the congressional debate over the privileges and immunities c…
The Conspiracy of the Good
Conspiracy of the Good provides an interesting account of public education in Pasadena, California, and Charlottesville, Virginia. Its focus is primarily on Pasadena—“one of the prettiest towns in America, and probably the richest,” one observer wrote in 1932 (p. 217). The evidence from Charlottesville is used primarily to provide counterpoint. The book includes parallel narratives, as well as tangential descriptions of numerous other matters. Mi…
The Travail of Liberia
Early in the nineteenth century, returnees from the African Diaspora established an independent black nation on the west coast of Africa. Occupying a territory about the size of Pennsylvania, Liberia had been the homeland of about one and a half million natives who belonged to some sixteen different tribes. Taking advantage of the divisions among the natives, the approximately fifteen thousand Americo-Liberians soon became dominant and proceeded …
From Brown to Green and Back
BROWN V. BOARD OF EDUCATION OF TOPEKA TOLLED THE BELL FOR JIM Crow America. The full significance of the Supreme Court's decision and opinion will be apparent only with the passage of more time; however, even now it is clear that in some respects Brown was a blessing but in others a bane. Most academic writing has emphasized the benefits rather than the burdens, although both have been considerable. In the 1960s and 1970s the Court strayed from B…
Civil Rights since 1787
Winner of the 2001 Gustavus Myers Program Book Award. Contrary to simple textbook tales, the civil rights movement did not arise spontaneously in 1954 with the landmark Brown v. Board of Education decision. The black struggle for civil rights can be traced back to the arrival of the first Africans, and to their work in the plantations, manufacturies, and homes of the Americas. Civil rights was thus born as labor history. Civil Rights Since 1787 t…

Right Turn
In the spirit of the time, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965 called for nondiscrimination for American citizens, seeking equality without regard for race, color, or creed. After the mid-1960s, to make amends for wrongs of the past, some called for benign discrimination to give blacks a special boost. In business and government this could be accomplished through racial preferences or quotas; in public education, by con…
