It has been accepted for inclusion in Avon Williams Collection by an authorized administrator of Digital Scholarship @ Tennessee State University. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Avon N. Williams Jr. Considered one of Tennessee's most prominent advocates for African American civil and equal rights, Avon Nyanza Williams Jr. was born in 1921 to Avon and Carrie Belle Williams in Knoxville. He would earn an A.B. degree from Johnson C. Smith University in Charlotte, North Carolina in 1940 and then began studying law at Boston University. He would receive his law degree in 1947 and then his master's degree in law a year later. Williams passed the state law board exams and was admitted into the Massachusetts and Tennessee Bar Associations in 1948. He would return to his Knoxville roots and practice law there from 1949 to 1953. Williams' first cousin, Thurgood Marshall, a chief lawyer for the Legal Defense and Educational Fund of the NAACP, inspired Williams's active NAACP membership and created the opportunity to meet Z. Alexander Looby, a leading African American attorney in Nashville.

  • Black Williams: a Written History
    BLACK WILLIAMS: A WRITTEN HISTORY WILLIAMS COLLEGE BLACK STUDENT UNION INTRODUCTION “In order to know where you are going, you must know where you came from.” It was that very belief that raised questions in the minds of Williams Black Student Union board members in the spring of 2002. The BSU board in 2002–2003 was composed mainly of freshmen who hadn’t yet been acquainted with the oral history of the BSU. This realization led the board to seek out information about the history of the BSU that could be passed on to incoming freshmen and also be made available to all its members. The fact that the history is so rich—and turbulent—further necessitated the writing of this history. However, the search for information in the likeliest places proved futile: there was no summary record of the BSU available. Therefore, that spring the BSU decided to create a complete history of the Union that would include all of the events that led to its creation, the events that led to the acquisition of Rice House, and, as nearly as possible, all that has happened on campus since the creation of the Union that affected its membership. This idea was submitted to Prof. Tess Chakalakal for her evaluation and advice in the summer of 2002. She suggested that we elaborate on an already solid foundation. Not only was there a need for a record of the rich history of the BSU, she said, but also of the blacks who attended Williams: a written, accessible history of Williams’ illustrious black graduates would not only inform current students but would attract prospective students —especially black students—to Williams.

  • 1.1. Description of History
    Technical Memorandum Date October 2008 Project Tennessee State University Campus Master Plan Subject 1. History of the University 1.1 Description of History From BKV Group, Inc To Tennessee State University This is a brief history of Tennessee State University as gathered by the planning team. The objective of this work element is for the planning team and campus community to gain an understanding of TSU’s history, documenting key events that have shaped the educational and physical form of the campus as well as identifying those forces which are likely to influence its future. 1. HISTORY OF TENNESSEE STATE UNIVERSITY Tennessee State University, founded in 1912, is a comprehensive, urban, coeducational, land-grant university located in Nashville, Tennessee. Through successive stages of growth and change during its nearly 100-year history, TSU has developed from a small normal school for Negroes to a 4 year university graduating degrees at all levels. The process of educating teachers was based on developing “norms” or standards, hence the name Normal School. With such humble beginnings and a small student body, TSU has grown to become one of the nation’s most highly respected Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) as well as a national university attracting students from 42 states and 45 countries. To its credit, TSU has accomplished this transition without losing focus on its primary mission; that being an “access” school for Tennessee’s financially challenged students; many of whom have few alternatives when seeking to gain a collegiate education. Although TSU was, until recently, considered by many students the campus of “last resort”, its recognition as a nationally ranked university and reputation for quality curriculum delivery has allowed TSU to claim it is now a campus of “first choice”.

Four partners ---the Chester County Historic Preservation Society, Voices Underground, the Chester County History Center, and the Chester County Planning Commission – are working together to present an array of programs and public events that honor the courage and commitment of residents, past and present, in support of freedom and equality for all. Juneteenth 2021 will highlight the history of Chester County’s role in the Under- ground Railroad and the Anti-Slavery movement. In the mid-19th century, Chester County became a hotbed for the Underground Railroad, with free Blacks, escaping slaves, and White abolitionists working together to aid runaways on their perilous journey to freedom. This commitment to social justice has continued through the County’s history, seen in decades of brave efforts to secure equal rights and social justice that continue to echo in today’s campaigns. The Festival will kick off on June 12 with a United Faith Community Celebration, led by area clergy. The Festival ‘s keynote events will take place in and around Kennett Square the weekend of June 18, featuring nationally-known speakers, performances, gatherings, and tours. The annual Town Tours and Village Walks, all dedicated to the Festival’s theme, will begin on June 17. Local programs and celebrations will be held in communities across the County from June 12 through July 3 and will include an array of visits to historic sites, walking tours, speakers, and family programs.

  • Strides for Equality: a Resource Guide for the Civil Rights Struggle in Memphis
    Strides for Equality: A Resource Guide for the Civil Rights Struggle in Memphis Developed By: Destiny Smith & Allyson Topps 2013 Rhodes Institute for Regional Studies: Urban Education Abstract: As the public school systems of Memphis and Shelby County embark on a new trail, it is imperative that students receive an education that is second to none. Strides for Equality serves as a supplemental resource guide for teachers who wish to enhance the state mandated curriculum on Civil Rights. The resource guide chronicles Memphis during the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s. Teaching the civil rights struggle in Memphis will enlighten students about efforts put forth by Memphians to better their city, thus making a lasting impression in their lives. Prominent People of the 1940s Lloyd T. Binford (1868-1957) Lloyd Binford was born in Duck Hill, Mississippi. Although his formal education ended after the fifth grade, Binford was a natural businessman. In 1916, Binford became president of the Columbia Mutual Life Insurance Company and moved its headquarters to Memphis. In 1925, he began construction of the Columbia Mutual Tower, known today as the Lincoln American Tower. Personally selected by Mayor E.H. Crump, Binford controlled the Memphis Censor Board from 1928 to 1955. The Memphis Censor Board was formed in 1921 to “censor, supervise, regulate, or prohibit any entertainment of immoral, lewd, or lascivious character, as well as performances inimical to the public safety, health, morals, or welfare.” Before Binford took control, the Censor Board rarely enforced its regulations. However, after joining the board, it was Binford’s decision that mattered. Binford was known for censoring movies in an effort to maintain social control and Southern ideals at a time of enormous instability.

THE NASHVILLE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT: A STUDY OF THE PHENOMENON OF INTENTIONAL LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT AND ITS CONSEQUENCES FOR LOCAL MOVEMENTS AND THE NATIONAL CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT AT GEORGIA STATE UNIVERSITY by BARRY EVERETT LEE Under the Direction of Jacqueline A. Rouse ABSTRACT The Nashville Civil Rights Movement was one of the most dynamic local movements of the early 1960s, producing the most capable student leaders of the period 1960 to 1965. Despite such a feat, the historical record has largely overlooked this phenomenon. What circumstances allowed Nashville to produce such a dynamic movement whose youth leadership of John Lewis, Diane Nash, Bernard LaFayette, and James Bevel had no parallel? How was this small cadre able to influence movement developments on local and a national level? In order to address these critical research questions, standard historical methods of inquiry will be employed.
