You go by Lori Stokes, right? I do. L-O-R-I S-T-O-R-K-E-S. S-T-O-K-E-S. What did I say? R-K- something? Strokes? S-T-O-K-E-S. It's okay. I've probably been called worse. So first I want to talk a little about Carl. I know you were young when he became mayor, but in general tell me about your memories of your Uncle Carl? TC: 11:40:29 My memories of my Uncle Carl span such a huge amount of years, when you talk about when he first went into, became Cleveland's mayor and America's first black mayor. That was 1967 and I was born in '62, so I was very young. But I certainly know of all the stories, particularly of that night that he was elected because he won by 1700 votes. So it was still close, but it was still a clear win. TC: 11:41:03 So I hear the stories about that night when my father was upstairs with Dr. Martin Luther King, and when they found out, when the results came in, the jubilation in the streets and this triumph against Seth Taft, who in itself was such a huge name and a legacy. That America never thought something like this would happen. So I've heard the tales of that night and how my father stayed upstairs with Dr.

  • Electing Black Mayors
    Electing Black Mayors Political Action in the Black Community William E. Nelson, Jr. and Philip J. Meranto $20.00 ELECTING BLACK MAYORS Political Action in the Black Community By William E. Nelson, Jr., and Philip J. Meranto As the black protest movement swept north in the middle years of the 1960s, a major shift was to take place in its basic theme and fundamental direction that transferred emphasis from the familiar exhortation to demand "freedom now" to an equally urgent summons to marshal the formidable, if un­ tapped, resources of "black power" in the struggle for liberation. This alteration in both informing idea and effective method signified conclusively that blacks, grown angry and frustrated over the slow rate of their social and economic prog­ ress as an oppressed minority, were finally prepared to realize their potential force in order to exercise a decisive measure of po­ litical control over their own lives. As a call to action, black power reflected a growing sense of community among blacks, a fresh awareness of shared experience and a common heritage. More importantly, however, it was both a challenge posed by blacks to themselves to gain some increased measure of control over the institutions of that community, and an appeal for black solidarity and concerted political action as the essential means to that end. An increased concentration of blacks in the major cities of the northern and western United States had come about as the direct result of one of the most significant demographic changes to occur in the nation in the twentieth century.
