  • 1 the Life of Anne Braden, Part
    The Life of Anne Braden, Part Two: a Life in the Movement By Lynn Burnett As Anne Braden crisscrossed the nation raising support to free her husband, the love of her life was unbeknownst to her locked away in solitary confinement. Although they wrote to each other often, Carl worried that Anne already had far too many burdens to bear, and therefore didn’t reveal how difficult his circumstances truly were. Carl used his time in solitary to develop an ascetic quality in himself, composing and reflecting on ethical goals. Anne meanwhile cultivated a large, national network of supporters through her travels, writings and journalistic connections. Civil rights activists and labor organizers across the country understood that if the Bradens could be charged with being part of a Communist conspiracy simply for helping a Black family move into a White neighborhood, that they could be charged with subversion for their activities as well. Freeing Carl Braden thus became a major cause: although his bail was the highest in Kentucky’s history, it was raised in seven months. Carl was released in the summer of 1955. Eight months later, the Supreme Court ruled that the state sedition laws that had been used to target the Bradens were unconstitutional. All charges were dropped. The prosecutor of the Bradens, Scott Hamilton, had hoped to rise to fame through building a sensational anti-Communist case. He instead found his career discredited. A few years later, he put a gun to his head and pulled the trigger. Anne and Carl could not, however, simply return to their old lives.

  • The Wall Between by Anne Braden
    University of Louisville ANNE BRADEN INSTITUTE FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE RESEARCH BOOK DISCUSSION KIT: The Wall Between By Anne Braden ABI Book Discussion Kit – The Wall Between INTRODUCTION Dear Readers: The Wall Between was first published in 1958, four years after the events that thrust Anne Braden into a life of social justice activism had transpired. It is Anne’s first-person account of her and her husband Carl’s decision in 1954 to purchase a home in an all-white neighborhood for Andrew and Charlotte Wade, who were black, and of the explosive consequences. Eloquently written; filled with equal parts drama, intriguing characters, and psycho-social analysis; and packed with a sense of journalistic integrity, the book was a finalist for the 1958 National Book Award in Nonfiction. This book discussion kit is based on the edition republished in 1999, which includes a foreword by Julian Bond and a new epilogue by Anne Braden. When The Wall Between was published in 1958, the U.S. was embattled in the African American Civil Rights Movement, a war against white supremacy and for human dignity that forced every citizen of the country to ask him or herself, consciously or subconsciously, “What kind of America do I want to live in?” It is with this question in mind that we hope you approach The Wall Between now, in the 21st century. As of the publication of this book discussion kit, the President of the United States is African American. The days of bus boycotts, restaurant sit-ins, angry mobs throwing stones at black children trying to enroll in all-white schools and black men being prosecuted or mob- lynched for looking at a white woman with intent to rape seem light years past.

  • Transcript, Anne Braden: Southern Patriot Exterior of University Of
    Transcript, Anne Braden: Southern Patriot Exterior of University of Louisville building and students. SUBTITLE: University of Louisville 2006 ANNE BRADEN (in class): You do not have to agree with me. I don't want you to agree with me. It's much more interesting if you don't and it does not affect your grade whatsoever. And if you do get involved in things and you go out and get arrested or something, I'll do everything I can to get you out of jail, but I'm not going to give you a better grade for it so [laughter] just so we're clear on that. And they're doing this documentary on me, which embarrasses me highly, but really what they're trying to do is look at the movements that I've been a part of for the last 50 years through the lens of my life. And I know enough about the way people respond now that I know that that is valid, if it just weren't me. That people are more interested in people than ideas initially, but once they get interested in the people they'll move on to what the ideas are. BARBARA RANSBY (giving a speech): SUBTITLE: Barbara Ransby, Historian, University of Illinois at Chicago They were people who were labeled the rebels, the renegades, the outliers. People who weren't afraid to be called crazy or in Ella Baker's case difficult, in Anne Braden's case red. Dreamers that catapult us into a different place. She was born at a time in the Jim Crow south in which there was a very rigid script about what a middle class white woman could be and do.
