Atlanta Student Movement Project Dr. Lonnie King Class Lecture 2017 Transcribed by Jeanne Law Bohannon
Atlanta Student Movement Project Dr. Lonnie King Class Lecture 2017 Transcribed by Jeanne Law Bohannon KING: I played fullback and ended up being a linebacker. I was a linebacker on the left side. Yeah. Because I didn't want to play on the right side. I played on the left side as a, as a linebacker. So, I played fullback, halfback, and linebacker. Yeah, I was mean, brother. One thing about athletics, at least from my perspective, it's a very good thing for young people to play athletics because you learn teamwork you learn disappointment, highs and lows, all that. All those things are good to get exposed to when you're young because I think it makes you, in my opinion, a better citizen later on. Those guys and those ladies who just bookworm all the time - they are brilliant people, make all As, but they are somewhat not as balanced as young ladies and young men who become more athletically inclined. I was glad to see Title IX passed because I remember my daughter, she and I used to play basketball together when she was young. She was very good, but she couldn't play after she got to high school because that's how it was at that time. Yeah. But anyway, my little son was pretty good. I was just thinking yesterday, I guess it was, because he called me from up in Kentucky. I was thinking about it when he was five years old. I used to take my five-year-old and my ten-year-old to play three-person basketball with the folks in the neighborhood. -

Can the South Be Redeemed?
The Bitter Southerner Podcast: Can the South Be Redeemed? Chuck Reece (00:00:04): Hello again my friends and welcome to the final episode of The Bitter Southerner Podcast, second season. We are, as always, co-produced with the good people of Georgia Public Broadcasting and for our grand finale this season, we're going to attempt to answer a question that to every true hearted southerner is among the most difficult ever. Can the South be redeemed? (Rain FX and music up and udner). Chuck Reece (00:00:40): There's a giant fly in the ointment of Southern culture, and for centuries, white southerners have tried to deny it or Just ignore it, but it's deep in the source material of every little piece, every single artifact of our region's culture. And the fly I'm talking about of course, is slavery and the racial terror and oppression that followed it, and which sadly follow it still. Now I have to be open here, I'm a white guy. I'll be 60 years old, 11 months from now, but I've always known from the first minute I was exposed to it that racism is wrong. I was taught that all God's children were equal, and I was lucky enough to have a family that taught me that. But in general, why people in the South have been blind to the ways that we have benefited and continue to benefit from the violent lies of white supremacy. Chuck Reece (00:01:40): And for some of my listeners, especially people of color, you may need to bear with me in this episode because I'm waking up to my own need to name these things, to hear and see the full truth of them and to erase what white kids of my generation were taught and replace that with the truth. -
Teaching African American Discourse: Lessons of a Recovering Segregationist
Teaching African American Discourse: Lessons of a Recovering Segregationist Calvin M. Logue1 In the early 1970s at the University of Georgia I developed and taught a course in “Black Rhetoric” seven times. (Later we were fortunate to engage an African Amer- ican professor to adopt and further develop the class.) The first challenge, after compiling a working prospectus, was getting the course approved. At this time there was no Black Studies program at the Uni- versity of Georgia, only isolated courses in such disciplines as history, sociology, and probably literature. After submitting a proposed syllabus and extensive reading list to the Curriculum Committee of the College of Arts and Sciences, sometime later I was called before those representatives from the sciences, social sciences, fine arts, and humanities to explain why Black rhetoric should be studied at a univer- sity. A professor asked, “Are you going to teach our students to speak like Stokely Carmichael?,” one of the many advocates included in the syllabus. Eventually the proposal was approved. Looking back on that time, over forty years ago, I was probably among a num- ber of white teachers feeling increasingly concerned and guilty about the long sea- son of abuse experienced by African Americans in the United States in general and my southland in particular. We were presenting and hearing papers at conventions on the need for African American studies and the difficulty of accessing copies of speeches, writings, and other materials by African American activists that could be made available feasibly to students. Thinking about it now, my efforts in the classroom at the time, when contrasted with the dangers confronted by African Americans daily and when sitting-in restaurants, marching in hostile streets, con- fronting police dogs and fire hoses, and being jailed, were tame indeed. -

Stadiums of Status: Civic Development, Race, and the Business of Sports in Atlanta, Georgia, 1966-2019
i Stadiums of Status: Civic Development, Race, and the Business of Sports in Atlanta, Georgia, 1966-2019 By Joseph Loughran Senior Honors Thesis History University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill May 1, 2020 Approved: ___________________________________ Dr. Matthew Andrews, Thesis Advisor Dr. William Sturkey, Reader i Acknowledgements I could not have completed this thesis without the overwhelming support from my mother and father. Ever since I broached the idea of writing a thesis in spring 2019, they not only supported me, but guided me through the tough times in order to create this project. From bouncing ideas off you to using your encouragement to keep pushing forward, I cannot thank the both of you enough. I would also like to thank my advisor, Dr. Matthew Andrews, for his constant support, guidance, and advice over the last year. Rather than simply giving feedback or instructions on different parts of my thesis, our meetings would turn into conversations, feeding off a mutual love for learning about how sports impact history. While Dr. Andrews was an advisor for this past year, he will be a friend for life. Thank you to Dr. Michelle King as well, as her guidance throughout the year as the teacher for our thesis class was invaluable. Thank you for putting up with our nonsense and shepherding us throughout this process, Dr. King. This project was supported by the Tom and Elizabeth Long Excellence Fund for Honors administered by Honors Carolina, as well as The Michel L. and Matthew L. Boyatt Award for Research in History administered by the Department of History at UNC-Chapel Hill. -

Media history and culture — p. 1 Summer 2013 019:091:AAA Media History & Culture 10:30A - 11:45A MTWTh 201 BCSB Prof. Frank Durham Office: E330 Adler Journalism Building (AJB) [email protected] ph. 335-3362 Office hours: Mon./Tues. 9-10:30 a.m. or by appointment The Journalism School office is located at room E305 in the Adler Journalism Building (AJB) ph. 335-3401 Course description To understand America’s past and its present, we must understand journalism and its role in the making of the nation. In this course, we will approach this learning project by addressing the broader social and political contexts within which American journalism has developed. Through a process of inquiry, we will learn about how journalists have defined conflicts between elites and workers, men and women, and how they have constructed definitions of racial and ethnic groups. In this way, this course and the text that Prof. Tom Oates and I have written for it, Defining the Mainstream: A Critical News Reader, addresses the origins, themes, and continuities of the press, both mainstream and minority. This perspective comes from examining exemplary (and, sometimes, exceptional) moments, as well as developing an understanding of more usual journalistic reactions and practices across time. In these discussions, I want to show you how and why journalism has played a part in defining social meaning in America. While the history of American journalism is rich with heroic stories about how journalists shaped and were shaped by events and trends, the content of the class about journalism will be new to almost all of you. -
