  • The Black Press and the End of Racial Segregation in the U.S
    MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD? THE BLACK PRESS AND THE END OF RACIAL SEGREGATION IN THE U.S. MILITARY, 1948-1954 Mark Slagle A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Journalism and Mass Communication Chapel Hill 2010 Approved by: Dr. Barbara Friedman Dr. Anne Johnston Dr. Donald Shaw Dr. Crystal Feimster Dr. Richard Kohn ©2010 Mark Slagle ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT MARK SLAGLE: Mightier Than The Sword? The Black Press and the End of Racial Segregation in the U.S. Military, 1948-1954 (Under the Direction of Dr. Barbara Friedman) Although President Harry S. Truman ordered the integration of the U.S. military in 1948, the armed forces made limited progress in desegregating before the summer of 1950. The outbreak of war on the Korean peninsula that year forced the military to re-evaluate its policy of segregation and ultimately led the complete integration of all the armed forces. This study analyzes how the largest and most influential black newspapers fought for military integration and how these publications reacted when it arrived. By examining how the black press sought to achieve its goals, this study illustrates the ways in which black newspapers did and did not operate as a dissident media source. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This dissertation would not have been possible without the efforts of a number of people. Barbara Friedman shepherded this project from vague idea to finished product. Anne Johnston, Don Shaw, Richard Kohn, and Crystal Feimster all provided valuable suggestions and support throughout the process.

    e-Journal n°27 – September 2019 A Word From… The « OL ANG’ELLES » Team A new season has begun, racing along at the same frantic pace at which last season ended. This edition covers the start of a new season with the same lofty goals: The team aims to defend all its titles and win every available trophy—now 5 in total—even as the competition gets tougher every year. For the OL ANG’ELLES, we aim to once again be present for every match throughout France and in Europe, even as the number of games increases. Avaldsnes / Norway Amsterdam / Netherlands Wolfsburg/Germany Chelsea/England Budapest/Hungary The 1st title has already been secured. Lyon defeated the North Carolina Courage in the United States to take home the WICC title. It’s a tournament that is gaining significance and getting ever closer to a sort of Club World Cup. Even though Lyon won the treble in 2018-19, some of the victories were not easy to come by last year, as Ada explained to OLTV after last year’s final in Budapest: « It was incredible season because it wasn’t obvious that we would win the treble…we showed we can come through even in the difficult moments, and we showed again that we are the best team…it’s a dream ». The presence of Gérard Houiller at practices and many of the matches at the end of the season was a clear precursor to the overhaul of the coaching staff at every level of OL Féminin. A completely new staff, changes to the administrative structure… A new season has begun…but in what mood? Will there be improved relationships with the fans? Will more games be held in full D1 stadiums to build off growing interest in the women’s game following the World Cup?...at least 1 of a possible 5 titles is already in the bag!

May 2016 This project has been financed in part with funds provided by the State of Minnesota from the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund through the Minnesota Historical Society. Saint Paul African American Historic and Cultural Context ABSTRACT Saint Paul’s African American community is long established—rooted, yet dynamic. From their beginnings, Blacks in Minnesota have had tremendous impact on the state’s economy, culture, and political development. Although there has been an African American presence in Saint Paul for more than 150 years, adequate research has not been completed to account for and protect sites with significance to the community. One of the objectives outlined in the City of Saint Paul’s 2009 Historic Preservation Plan is the development of historic contexts “for the most threatened resource types and areas,” including immigrant and ethnic communities (City of Saint Paul 2009:12). The primary objective for development of this Saint Paul African American Historic and Cultural Context Project (Context Study) was to lay a solid foundation for identification of key sites of historic significance and advancing preservation of these sites and the community’s stories.

PROGRESS THE PROGRESS of Negroes in the United States is so great that history will point out what you have done as one of the achievements which mark this age. Your rise is one of the best proofs of the value of the American theory of government. Successes by individuals here and there have been multiplied until now yours is a mass movement. You are advancing all along the line, a sound basis for your having confidence in the future. The world’s work needs every man. I look to see the Negro, prepared by difficulty, and tested by adversity, be a valued factor in upbuilding the commonwealth. In the Middle West, where The Kansas City Call is published, lies opportunity. In addition to urban pursuits you have available for the man of small means, the farm which is one of the primary industries. The Negro in your section can develop in a well rounded way. Above all things, take counsel of what you are doing, rather than of the trials you are undergoing. Look up and go up!
