    Atlanta Student Movement Project Dr. Lonnie King Class Lecture 2017 Transcribed by Jeanne Law Bohannon KING: I played fullback and ended up being a linebacker. I was a linebacker on the left side. Yeah. Because I didn't want to play on the right side. I played on the left side as a, as a linebacker. So, I played fullback, halfback, and linebacker. Yeah, I was mean, brother. One thing about athletics, at least from my perspective, it's a very good thing for young people to play athletics because you learn teamwork you learn disappointment, highs and lows, all that. All those things are good to get exposed to when you're young because I think it makes you, in my opinion, a better citizen later on. Those guys and those ladies who just bookworm all the time - they are brilliant people, make all As, but they are somewhat not as balanced as young ladies and young men who become more athletically inclined. I was glad to see Title IX passed because I remember my daughter, she and I used to play basketball together when she was young. She was very good, but she couldn't play after she got to high school because that's how it was at that time. Yeah. But anyway, my little son was pretty good. I was just thinking yesterday, I guess it was, because he called me from up in Kentucky. I was thinking about it when he was five years old. I used to take my five-year-old and my ten-year-old to play three-person basketball with the folks in the neighborhood.

  • Searching for a New Freedom
    searching for a newA freedom Companion to African American History499 Edited by Alton Hornsby, Jr Copyright © 2005 by Blackwell Publishing Ltd Chapter Twenty-nine Searching for a New Freedom HASAN KWAME JEFFRIES In the immediate aftermath of emancipation, the lives of former bondsmen and bondswomen failed to meet their basic expectations. Quite simply, their lives too closely resembled the status quo antebellum. Indeed, African Americans remained landless, lacked ownership of the fruits of their labor, lost the vote (through elec- toral fraud and discriminatory changes to state constitutions) shortly after they had received it, and were subject to vicious, vulgar, and random acts of racial terrorism as a result of the federal government being more interested in protecting the southern economy than in protecting black folk. In response, African Americans organized to implement their vision of freedom, which differed substantially from that of white southerners and white northerners. By agitating for their civil and human rights, especially for good-quality education, political participation, personal safety, and control of their own labor, the former slaves launched the fight for racial justice that continues to this day (Harding 1981). The most important link in this intergenerational struggle is the modern Civil Rights Movement. It represents the most highly organized manifestation of African Americans’ post-emancipation search for a new freedom and, if measured narrowly in legislative terms, the most successful. Popular interest in the Civil Rights Movement has swelled during the last two decades. Evidence of this trend is the surge in the number of feature-length films that explore aspects and events of the civil rights era, such as Freedom Song and Boycott.

  • Introduction
    Introduction It shall be an unlawful employment practice for an employer— (1) to fail or refuse to hire or to discharge any individual, or other- wise to discriminate against any individual with respect to his com- pensation, terms, conditions, or privileges of employment, because of such individual’s race, color, religion, sex, or national origin; or (2) to limit, segregate, or classify his employees or applicants for employment in any way which would deprive or tend to deprive any individual of employment opportunities or otherwise adversely affect his status as an employee, because of such individual’s race, color, re- ligion, sex, or national origin (Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964). In 1964 the U.S. Congress enacted, and President Lyndon Johnson signed, the Civil Rights Act. Although it was not the first or the last legislative mo- ment of the civil rights movement, it was a pivotal one. The act outlawed segregation and discrimination by race, ethnicity, and religion in public education, public accommodations, voting, and federal assistance. Title VII of the act extended the equal opportunity principle to employment and for the first time explicitly mentioned “sex” as a protected category. It is this extension of rights to equal opportunity in employment, freedom from discrimination in employment, and the erosion of race and gender employment segregation as a legitimate and expected practice that is at the heart of this book. The passage of the Civil Rights Act is without question one of the most monumental achievements in the history of the United States, perhaps even the world.

    Ahimsa Center- K-12 Teacher Institute Title of Lesson: “The Soul of Music” – music’s role on Gandhi and King’s movements Lesson By: Wing Man (Mandy) Kwan Grade Level/ Subject Areas: Class Size: Time/Duration of Lesson: Grade 1 to 3, Social Studies 20 to 25 3 to 4 days, 45 minutes each lesson Guiding Questions: • How did music and song affect Gandhi and King’s movements? Lesson Abstract: Students will learn about the impact of music and song on the Civil Rights Movement in the U.S. and in Gandhi’s life & his nonviolent civil disobedience. Lesson Content: Music and rhythm exists in the world around us. From our own heartbeats to the ebb & flow of ocean waves, it seems that there is an innate melody in all of us and in nature. Bernice Johnson Reagon once said that “music is in the air like currents; and in order to hear, they need the air moving through instruments …bringing song into hearing spaces” (http://www.bernicejohnsonreagon.com/music.shtml ) Music has the profound ability to touch & move the deepest yearnings of every human heart. In the same way, music was instrumental in shaping Gandhi and the Civil Rights movements. It often represented the heartbeat and the core of Gandhi and Dr. King’s beliefs. Gandhi was a political and spiritual leader for India in the early 20 th century. He employed satyagraha , or “soul force”, and civil disobedience to bring equality and justice to the poor in South African and India. His efforts were inspirational to other liberation movements around the world.

  • Waveland, Mississippi, November 1964: Death of Sncc, Birth of Radicalism
    WAVELAND, MISSISSIPPI, NOVEMBER 1964: DEATH OF SNCC, BIRTH OF RADICALISM University of Wisconsin – Eau Claire: History Department History 489: Research Seminar Professor Robert Gough Professor Selika Ducksworth – Lawton, Cooperating Professor Matthew Pronley University of Wisconsin – Eau Claire May 2008 Abstract: The Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC, pronounced Snick) was a nonviolent direct action organization that participated in the civil rights movement in the 1960s. After the Freedom Summer, where hundreds of northern volunteers came to participate in voter registration drives among rural blacks, SNCC underwent internal upheaval. The upheaval was centered on the future direction of SNCC. Several staff meetings occurred in the fall of 1964, none more important than the staff retreat in Waveland, Mississippi, in November. Thirty-seven position papers were written before the retreat in order to reflect upon the question of future direction of the organization; however, along with answers about the future direction, these papers also outlined and foreshadowed future trends in radical thought. Most specifically, these trends include race relations within SNCC, which resulted in the emergence of black self-consciousness and an exodus of hundreds of white activists from SNCC. ii Table of Contents: Abstract ii Historiography 1 Introduction to Civil Rights and SNCC 5 Waveland Retreat 16 Position Papers – Racial Tensions 18 Time after Waveland – SNCC’s New Identity 26 Conclusion 29 Bibliography 32 iii Historiography Research can both answer questions and create them. Initially I discovered SNCC though Taylor Branch’s epic volumes on the Civil Right Movements in the 1960s. Further reading revealed the role of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC, pronounced Snick) in the Civil Right Movement and opened the doors into an effective and controversial organization.
