I write to you at a moment when the SSS leadership is working very hard to convince the Governor of Georgia not to sign an anti-gay bill. We have decided to meet here whatever happens because all of you have planned your trips, and many have Barbara Risman bought plane tickets. Be assured, however, if Georgia or any other SSS President state passes laws to discriminate against any of us, we will not hold 2015-2016 future conferences in such a state. Indeed, we’ve added escape clauses to our future hotel contracts to allow us to break the contract without penalty if the state passes anti-discrimination laws. So relax, and enjoy this conference, knowing SSS is committed to social justice and will not support economies of states that are not. If HB 757 has passed, I promise there will be some social movement activity for you to join in – at the meetings- if you so choose. But now back to the show. I hope you take the time to look thru the program (whether yours is physical or the App) and plan your schedule. There are so many wonderful sessions, and interesting speakers, you’ll have to organize your time effectively to enjoy the conference to its fullest. Here’s hoping you learn quite a lot about The Politics of Marriage. Ironic isn’t it, that the theme of the meetings is being echoed in the politics of the state of Georgia? And so, it’s quite clear that even if this isn’t your research area, we all live in a world where the norms, rules, and laws affecting our intimate relationships are changing quickly, and knowing what the research suggests may help us in our personal and political as well as professional lives. We’ve worked hard to bring you an exciting program. And to bring you a really enjoyable conference experience. Enjoy the jam session Wednesday night, the graduate student mixer Meet the Candidate party on Thursday evening, and come dance after the Awards Ceremony and Presidential Address. If you are still with us on Saturday at the end of the day, join us at a final reception for the mini-conference on teaching sponsored by Norton Publishers. If we haven’t met, please introduce yourself. I have felt honored to be the President of SSS, and hope that you enjoy the program constructed by our marvelous co-chairs, Patricia Warren and Adia Harvey Wingfield. Our whole team welcomes you to Atlanta!!!! And now it all begins! Barbara J.

  • Introduction and Literature Review
    Abstract SHERWOOD, JESSICA HOLDEN. Talk About Country Clubs: Ideology and the Reproduction of Privilege. (Under the direction of Barbara J. Risman.) This dissertation reports on interviews with members of five exclusive country clubs in the Northeastern United States. At these clubs, membership is extended only by selective invitation after a subjective screening process. The clubs have long histories of racial-ethnic homogeneity, but they now display some demographic diversity while preserving the economic and cultural homogeneity with which members are comfortable, and which they consider an important appeal of the private club. I focus on club members’ explanations around three topics: their clubs’ exclusivity, their racial-ethnic composition, and the status of women members. Subjects minimize the significance of the exclusion they perform by rhetorically pointing to forces beyond their control, and by promoting the American Dream of colorblind, meritocratic equal opportunity. While they use the dominant racial ideology of colorblindness, subjects also show a departure from colorblindness in their active development of and rhetorical emphasis on racial-ethnic diversity in their ranks. Concerning women’s status, club members mostly accept the subordination of women in clubs. To justify it, they rhetorically rely on both the dominant gender ideology and the inequalities in men’s and women’s wealth and domestic responsibilities which originate elsewhere. Club members are called to account for their exclusivity by the American value of egalitarian equal access. But at the same time, other cultural values provide them with the tools needed to successfully explain themselves, even as their talk and actions contribute to the reproduction of class, race, and gender inequalities.

The Complex Relationship between Jews and African Americans in the Context of the Civil Rights Movement Abstract The Civil Rights Movement occurred throughout a substantial portion of the twentieth century, dedicated to fighting for equal rights for African Americans through various forms of activism. The movement had a profound impact on a number of different communities in the United States and around the world as demonstrated by the continued international attention marked by recent iterations of the Black Lives Matter and ‘Never Again’ movements. One community that had a complex reaction to the movement, played a major role within it, and was impacted by it was the American Jewish community. The African American community and the Jewish community were bonded by a similar exclusion from mainstream American society and a historic empathetic connection that would carry on into the mid-20th century; however, beginning in the late 1960s, the partnership between the groups eventually faced challenges and began to dissolve, only to resurface again in the twenty-first century.

  • USHMM Finding
    https://collections.ushmm.org Contact [email protected] for further information about this collection SUMMARY: Ben Bagdikian, a well-known journalist who in the 1960s “spent a lot of time in the Deep South” reporting stories on the civil rights movement, talks about his experiences there with two German Jewish refugees who were among the 50 or so teaching at black colleges after the war. Recalling discussions with Ernst Borinski (1901-1983), a sociology professor at Tougaloo College in Jackson, Mississippi, Bagdikian describes him as bringing both intellectual discipline and personal experience to black students in the segregated South: “No question he saw what the basic issues were in integration but he also had a sensitive human perception of all things,” and did not demonize those who confronted civil rights activists but saw the possibility for positive changes in behavior and opinion. Brown University later adopted Tougaloo as a sister institution, and recognized Borinski as “a great asset” to the college, Bagdikian said. He also tells a story about another German Jewish refugee professor at Talladega, a black college in Alabama. After a high school student named Brenda was arrested and put in prison, the professor “found a sympathetic official,” told him his own experience under the Nazis, and secured Brenda’s release. He drove to the prison with Bagdikian and Student Non- Violent Coordinating Committee activists James Forman, Bob Moses and Chuck McDew, retrieved Brenda and took her to a SNCC safehouse. Bagdikian, who could not recall the professor’s name, said it “took great guts on this man’s part to help engineer this thing.” Of the broader story of these refugees and their impact, Bagdikian concludes: “At the very least, maybe fundamentally, it’s a compelling human story; these people who had gone through the perils of being anti-Nazi, or being the targets of Nazis, coming here to their country of salvation and imperiling themselves again.

  • Black Institutions and the Rise of Student Activism In
    SHELTER IN A TIME OF STORM: BLACK COLLEGES AND THE RISE OF STUDENT ACTIVISM IN JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jelani Manu-Gowon Favors, B.A., M.A. The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Warren Van Tine, Adviser Hasan Kwame Jeffries, Co-Adviser Leslie Alexander William Nelson Jr. Approved by Adviser Graduate Program in History Co-Adviser Graduate Program in History Copyright by Jelani M. Favors ABSTRACT The most underdeveloped area of study concerning the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960’s is the effect of Black student activism during the explosive decade. The field is currently dominated by two-dimensional studies that define student activism under the banner of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), or the Black Studies campaigns on white college campuses in the latter half of the decade. Assessing student protests merely through this lens yields a narrow view of this generation of activists. One cause of our failure to identify these students is that scholars of the Civil Rights Movement have ignored the very environment in which the majority of student activists lived, learned, socialized, and ultimately revolted. Analyses of Black colleges invariably conclude that they were paternalistic and their curriculums were conformist, if not geared toward assimilation. Students from these all-Black institutions in the South succeeded in their public and private assault against the policies of Jim Crow and at the dawn of the Civil Rights Movement they vaulted the struggle for human rights to unprecedented levels.

    SWS 2020 Virtual Summer Meeting Special thanks to the Program Committee! 2020 Summer Meeting Program Committee: Marybeth Stalp, Chair, Josephine Beoku-Betts, President, Sasha Drummond-Lewis, Solange Simões, Barret Katuna, Executive Officer Warm Greetings to all SWSers and Welcome to the 2020 SWS Summer Virtual Meeting! It has been an exhilarating if somewhat challenging experience, preparing for our first SWS Virtual Summer Meeting. We had an excellent Program Committee and were able to turn lemons into lemonade as we navigated the realities of COVID-19. While we were still committed to hosting a summer meeting, we had to learn the ropes as we proceeded. Of course, “the proof of the pudding is in the eating” and we promise you a satisfying experience. I hope that you are all looking forward to the meeting as much as I am. Planning a meeting at the best of times is not easy work and takes a lot of staff and volunteer time and effort. We could not have asked for a better Program Committee to help put everything together and I appreciate their dedication and support throughout the planning process. I’d like to thank Marybeth Stalp, Chair of the Program Committee, as well as Solange Simões (International Committee), Sasha Drummond-Lewis (Sister to Sister), Barret Katuna (SWS EO), Natasha Santana (Assistant to the EO), and Christelle Lachapelle (Web Support Specialist). Although this is a virtual meeting and we will not be meeting in a particular space of land, it is important that we acknowledge that the land on which each of us reside as we participate in critical and pressing dialogues is the traditional territory of indigenous nations, whose territories extend across the recent nation-state territorial borders referred to as the United States of America and Mexico.

  • Beyond Swastika and Jim Crow Black Colleges Welcomed Jewish Refugee Scholars to America
    Exhibit: Beyond Swastika and Jim Crow Black colleges welcomed Jewish refugee scholars to America By Lina Broydo Created: January 17, 2013 Last Updated: January 20, 2013 Professor Ernst Borinski teaching in the Social Science Lab, Tougaloo College, in Mississippi, circa 1960. Borinski was part of the Tougaloo community for 36 years. (Courtesy of Mississippi Department of Archives and History) February is African-American History Month, and this year its annual celebration coincides with a very special exhibit: Beyond Swastika and Jim Crow: Jewish Refugee Scholars at Black Colleges at the National Museum of American Jewish History (NMAJH) in Philadelphia. Inspired by Gabrielle Simon Edgcomb’s landmark book “From Swastika to Jim Crow: Refugee Scholars at Black Colleges” and the subsequent PBS documentary by Joel Sucher and Steven Fischler, the exhibit opened on Jan. 15 and continues through June 2. It unveils the shared history of collaboration between America’s Jewish and African-American communities with regard to civil rights and advocacy on behalf of minority groups. The exhibit tells the story of Jewish academics from Germany and Austria who were dismissed from their teaching positions in the 1930s. Only months after Hitler seized power in 1933, Jewish intellectuals who had held prestigious positions in Germany’s renowned universities (where more than 12 percent of faculty members were Jewish) were targeted for expulsion. Those who dared to oppose the edicts were met with brutal suppression. Receipts for fines, Birmingham, Ala., 1942. (Collection of Drs. Lore and Donald Rasmussen) Often leaving with little more than the clothes on their backs, many of these scholars fled to America, hoping to continue their academic careers.

We're back at Dr. Borinski's horne on County Line Road in Tougaloo, Mississippi. I've just had another wonderful meal. Last time I believe we had smothered roast beef and spinach casserole, and this time we had meat balls and another of Dr. Borinski's cooking inventions ...

At that time I left Fort Dix and went back to Rochester, N~wYork, which was my so-called home in the United States, and got ready to enter academic life again.
