"A SENSE OF THEIR OWN POWER" Self-Determination in Recent Writings on Black Virginians by PHILIP J. SCHWARZ >I- BLACK Virginians have attained historical visibility in reverse proportion to their presence in the colony and state. A mere "20. and odd" Africans captured the attention of John Rolfe and Virginia officials in 1619 as .well as that of millions of Americans in later years. l As the slave population expanded, however, white Virginians denied a history to their human chattel whose unknown past was socially useless to a society bas~d on racial slavery. Planters and officials rarely showed awareness of the historical development these African-Americans experienced. It was the immediate economic and social usefulness of the blacks with which whites were most concerned. 2 After Appomattox, white leaders at­ tempted to "explain the Negro's past" in order to control their changed status. 3 Perhaps wearying of being explained, some twentieth-century black Virginians attempted to explain themselves by becoming historians of their ancestors.

  • Resurrecting the Educational Praxis of Dr. Carter G. Woodson, 1875-1950 by Jarvis R
    Culture, Curriculum, and Consciousness: Resurrecting the Educational Praxis of Dr. Carter G. Woodson, 1875-1950 By Jarvis R. Givens A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in African American Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Ula Y. Taylor, Chair Professor Na’ilah Suad Nasir Professor Daniel H. Perlstein Spring 2016 Culture, Curriculum, and Consciousness: Resurrecting the Educational Praxis of Dr. Carter G. Woodson, 1875-1950 © 2016 by Jarvis R. Givens Abstract Culture, Curriculum, and Consciousness: Resurrecting the Educational Praxis of Dr. Carter G. Woodson, 1875-1950 by Jarvis Ray Givens Doctor of Philosophy in African American Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Ula Y. Taylor, Chair While Black educational history generally centers the infamous debate between Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. Du Bois, this dissertation re-conceptualizes this framing through an innovative exploration of the work of Dr. Carter G. Woodson (1875-1950). Culture, Curriculum, and Consciousness analyzes Woodson’s argument that the ideological foundations of schools relied on a human history of the world that centered Whiteness and distorted the humanity of Black people. He not only advocated for a transformation that would supplant the ideological stronghold White supremacy had on Black education, but he simultaneously created an alternative model that centered Black humanity and cultural achievements. Coupling archival methods with critical text analysis and coding schemes, I examine how Woodson institutionalized his educational praxis through the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History (ASNLH), self- published textbooks, and his close relationship with Black teacher networks.
