  • Leaders of the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom Biographical Information
    “The Top Ten” Leaders of the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom Biographical Information (Asa) Philip Randolph • Director of the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. • He was born on April 15, 1889 in Crescent City, Florida. He was 74 years old at the time of the March. • As a young boy, he would recite sermons, imitating his father who was a minister. He was the valedictorian, the student with the highest rank, who spoke at his high school graduation. • He grew up during a time of intense violence and injustice against African Americans. • As a young man, he organized workers so that they could be treated more fairly, receiving better wages and better working conditions. He believed that black and white working people should join together to fight for better jobs and pay. • With his friend, Chandler Owen, he created The Messenger, a magazine for the black community. The articles expressed strong opinions, such as African Americans should not go to war if they have to be segregated in the military. • Randolph was asked to organize black workers for the Pullman Company, a railway company. He became head of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, the first black labor union. Labor unions are organizations that fight for workers’ rights. Sleeping car porters were people who served food on trains, prepared beds, and attended train passengers. • He planned a large demonstration in 1941 that would bring 10,000 African Americans to the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC to try to get better jobs and pay. The plan convinced President Roosevelt to take action.

The date marks the 46th Anniversary of the signing of the landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the luncheon honors the local heroes and sheroes of the St. Augustine Movement led by Dr. Robert B. Hayling, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. United States Congressman John Lewis of Atlanta, an original Freedom Rider (along with St. Augustinian Hank Thomas) and one of the "Big Six " leaders of the civil rights movement who spoke at the famous March on Washington in 1963 will be the keynote speaker. Dr. Kathryn Fentress, guest speaker, was labeled an ‘outside agitator’ when she came here 46 years ago, though her home was in nearby Ormond Beach. She was arrested June 11, 1964, on the steps of the Monson Motor Lodge Restaurant along with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Rev. Ralph Abernathy, Rev. William England (Chaplain of Boston University), and Clyde Jenkins for seeking to be served. She spent her 20th birthday here in jail. The second Dr. Robert B.

  • Martin Luther King Jr January 2021
    Connections Martin Luther King Jr January 2021 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR PMB Administrative Services and the Office of Diversity, Inclusion and Civil Rights Message from the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Administrative Services January 2021 Dear Colleagues, The life and legacy of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., inspires me every day, particularly when the troubles of the world seem to have placed what appear to be insurmountable obstacles on the path to achieving Dr. King’s vision. Yet I know that those obstacles will eventually melt away when we focus our hearts and minds on finding solutions together. While serving as leaders of the civil rights movement, Dr. and Mrs. King raised their family in much the same way my dear parents raised my brothers and myself. It gives me comfort to know that at the end of the day, their family came together in love and faith the same way our family did, grateful for each other and grateful knowing the path ahead was illuminated by a shared dream of a fair and equitable world. This issue of Connections begins on the next page with wise words of introduction from our collaborative partner, Erica White-Dunston, Director of the Office of Diversity, Inclusion and Civil Rights. Erica speaks eloquently of Dr. King’s championing of equity, diversity and inclusion in all aspects of life long before others understood how critically important those concepts were in creating and sustaining positive outcomes. I hope you find as much inspiration and hope within the pages of this month’s Connections magazine as I did.

  • American Resilience
    American Resilience Riley Kovalcheck History Faculty Advisor: Dr. David Welky Editor’s Note: Ms. Kovalchek’s article originally appeared as a series of posts on a multi-media web blog. If you wish to view her complete project, please go to https://rileykovalcheck.wixsite.com/americanresilience To begin, I'll admit this project began as a mandatory assignment for one of my classes, Recent American History. My professor, Dr. Welky, started the semester off by asking each student to identify 1) the most important theme in American history since the 1960s or 2) the three most influential individuals in this period of American history. My initial thought was to focus on three of my biggest inspirations (and three badass men) - Martin Luther King Jr., John Lewis, and Barack Obama. To me, those three individuals personify unity, perseverance, and resilience. As I started brainstorming, a bigger picture came to mind... This theme of overwhelming resilience in the African- American community across the nation. There is no doubt that as a whole, this demographic has single-handedly been more suppressed than any other throughout the history of the United States, but yet even more resilient in the long run. So, for this project, I decided to focus on this overall theme of resilience CLA Journal 6 (2018) pp. 144-181 145 - solely among African-Americans - and in particular, the role of men in politics, women in their local communities, and the unification and organization in social movements like the Black Panthers and Black Lives Matter. To highlight how revolutionary these accomplishments were, I will also discuss white resistance that was overcome in the process.

    Civil rights leader of 1960s sets Valley stop Page 1 of 2 Civil rights leader of 1960s sets Valley stop By Peter H. Milliken Saturday, October 1, 2011 By Peter H. Milliken [email protected] YOUNGSTOWN A top national leader in the 1960s civil-rights movement will address city high-school students this month. U.S. Rep. John Lewis, D-5th, of Atlanta, will speak to an assembly of students at 10 a.m. Oct. 18 at East High School. The assembly will be for students from East, Chaney and the Youngstown Early College High schools, and it will not be open to the public. Lewis will discuss his experiences in the civil rights movement and his commitment to nonviolence. Later that day, the 71-year-old congressman will speak at a Cleveland Legal Aid Society banquet. Lewis is coming to Youngstown at the invitation of Mahoning Valley Sojourn to the Past, an organization that sponsors a 10-day annual trip for Youngstown city high school students to sites of key 1960s civil-rights marches in Southern states and to meet movement leaders, such as Lewis. Penny Wells, director of Sojourn, announced Lewis’ appearance at Thursday’s meeting of the Mahoning County commissioners. Lewis, who was recognized as one of the nation’s “Big Six” civil rights leaders, was chairman of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee from 1963 to 1966. Lewis was a planner and the youngest speaker at the August 1963 Washington, D.C., rally, where the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his historic “I Have a Dream” speech.

  • Civil Rights Group Research Project.Docx
    Overview: The African American Civil Rights Movement was a large and expansive time in our country’s history. While you have spent the last month learning about some of the major people, events and legislation from this time period, you have not had the opportunity to investigate specific events deeply. For the next two weeks, you are going to conduct a short research project centered around a specific event from the movement. You will be in groups of four (or 3 if necessary) and will work together on certain aspects of the project as well as individually on your specific portion. Timeline: You will have 1 week to research and 1 week to create the presentation. Grading: Your project (as a group) will be displayed using “Presentations” through Google (just like PowerPoint). You will also be presenting your information as a group to your class--this is where the MAJORITY of your grade will come from. Additionally, most of your grade will be a group grade, so choose your groupmates wisely. Each of you will receive an individual grade based on the quality of your section of the project. Content: You will need to write in complete sentences, proper English, etc. but you WILL NOT have to write a full essay. ★ PART 1--As a group, you need to create an overview of your event. This should include (but not necessarily in this order): ○ Who was involved--important people ○ When and where it took place ○ What happened at the event ○ Leaders of the event ■ The Civil Rights Movement was a movement composed of many individuals and not the initiative of any single person or small group of people.
