Many of the lessons can be adjusted for other grade levels. Each lesson has the following nine components:(1) concept statement; (2) instructional objectives;(3) male and female African American role models;(4) affective factors;(5) materials;(6) vocabulary; (7) teaching procedures;(8) follow-up activities; and (9) resources.

My dissertation advisor, Dr. Gregg Cantrell, challenged and encouraged me throughout TCU’s Ph.D. program. Gregg devoted countless hours of his already busy life to reading, editing, and directing this dissertation. I am grateful for his patient counsel and his unrivaled enthusiasm for Texas history. Dr. Don Coerver, Dr. Mark Gilderhus, Dr. Susan Ramirez, and Dr. Kenneth Stevens served as dissertation committee members. I value Dr. Coerver’s vast knowledge of Texas border history and his meticulous nature. Dr. Gilderhus’s voracious appetite for the written word and his jovial personality made meetings with him an absolute joy. Dr. Ramirez has mastered the ability to extract the very best work from her students with grace, kindness, and encouragement. She serves as an invaluable model of behavior for a female academic in a male-dominated field. Dr. Stevens added his remarkable knowledge of Constitutional history to my dissertation committee. I appreciate his invaluable advice and his encouraging me to explore the impact of Supreme Court cases on Fort Worth. Much to my regret, a fellowship at Vanderbilt University prevented Dr.

  • ABSTRACT the History of African Americans in Fort Worth, Texas
    ABSTRACT The History of African Americans in Fort Worth, Texas 1875-1980 Heather M. Marvel, M.A. Mentor: James M. SoRelle, Ph.D. African American urban histories in the United States typically focus on larger cities in the nation such as Chicago, New York, and Washington, D.C. Despite the low amount of scholarly works looking at Texas cities, the Lone Star State was not a welcoming region for freedmen. This paper adds to the African American historical scholarship by discussing the black Fort Worth urban experience, focusing specifically from post Reconstruction to 1980. As the southern city grew during the late nineteenth century and into the twentieth century, African American residents faced similar prejudices and obstacles as other blacks in larger cities elsewhere in southern and northern regions. This is their story of overcoming these barriers and becoming an integrated part of Fort Worth culture. The History of African Americans in Fort Worth, Texas 1875-1980 by Heather M.
