Two Mississippi Museums: Museum of Mississippi History; Mississippi Civil Rights Museum
Like conjoined twins, the Two Mississippi Museums share one life but, as in a William Faulkner novel, experience it differently. This is evident upon approaching the bifurcated building perched on LeFleur’s Bluff above downtown Jackson, with the Greek Revival–like Museum of Mississippi History marrying in at a right angle with the postmodern Mississippi Civil Rights Museum, so that at the juncture, one entrance, with an open-air plaza and grand l…
Dell Upton. What Can and Can’t Be Said: Race, Uplift, and Monument Building in the Contemporary South
In Dell Upton’s reading of monuments recently erected across the American South, it seems as if little has changed. A noted authority on architectural history and American cities, Upton has lots to say in What Can and Can’t Be Said: Race, Uplift, and Monument Building in the Contemporary South as this timely work engages with the ongoing debate over interpretations of race in public art. With the premise that southern sites of racial conflict hav…
Segregating Sound: Inventing Folk and Pop Music in the Age of Jim Crow
Rarely does a book offer a clear paradigm shift in thinking about a historical topic as successfully as does Segregating Sound by Karl Hagstrom Miller. Rather than follow the standard folklore paradigm typical of such studies, Miller turned to the musicians themselves and, by exploring the historical contexts of their repertoires, enabled these black and white southerners to climb out of the boxes into which they had been so neatly packaged by pr…

Power, male privilege, and southern social customs These essays look at southern social customs within a single city in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. In particular, the volume focuses on paternalism between masters and slaves, husbands and wives, elites and the masses, and industrialists and workers.

Bombingham”: Black Protest in Postwar Birmingham, Alabama
(1996). ”Bombingham”: Black Protest in Postwar Birmingham, Alabama. The Historian: Vol. 59, No. 2, pp. 371-390
Essays on the American Civil Rights Movement
As its name suggests, the civil rights movement is an ongoing process, and the scholars contributing to this volume offer new geographical and temporal perspectives on this crucial American experience. As Clayborne Carson notes in the introduction, the movement involved much more than civil rights reform--it transformed African-American political and social consciousness. In this timely volume John Dittmer provides a new assessment of the effects…
