French, Jr. President, Clark Atlanta University Greetings, It is an honor to welcome you to this special volume of Phylon: The Clark Atlanta University Review of Race and Culture, written to celebrate 100 years of social work at Clark Atlanta University. I applaud the Whitney M. Young, Jr. School of Social Work and the guest editors who solicited contributions from both faculty and alumni across the country to curate this celebratory volume of scholarship around both historical and contemporary social issues. The authors point out that some 100 years ago during Jim Crowism and pervasive racism, professional social work (in the South) was founded primarily here in the Atlanta University Center. The School of Social Work, since its inception, has always stood for justice, equality, and excellence. Values and traits that are still with us today. Some contributions to this volume are centered around the history and leadership of the school and the challenges which were faced. Others analyze the impact of the school’s focus on cultural sensitivity and an afro-centric curriculum designed to assist underserved communities and the social work profession. I hope that you find the contents of this volume as insightful and thought- provoking as I do. The authors have brought to life luminaries such as W.E.B. Du Bois, Lugenia Burns Hope, E. Franklin Frazier, and other leaders and scholars who paved our path, and in whom we will forever be indebted. As we move forward, it is incumbent upon current scholars and practitioners, as those included in this volume, to show us new ways to face the rising sun. Social work and other helping professions are in high demand to help overcome the problems now plaguing the country, i.e., the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on people of color, perennial racism, and mental health challenges such as depression for many of our young people. These challenges provide great opportunities for both researchers and practitioners to collaborate to produce scholarship to help eradicate negative systemic issues in our country. As you read these articles remember that it was here, and at our sister institutions, where the desire and skills to help others in a compassionate and professional way was borne and advanced; yet, many of the figures discussed in these articles have not received their just rewards. As President of Clark Atlanta University, I believe this volume will help fill that void and I will do all that I can to see that their rich legacy is not forgotten. Sincerely, George T. French, Jr., Ph.D. 4 Phylon 57 Greetings Jenny Jones Dean, Whitney M.

    RACE, REGION, AND REALISM IN THE POSTBELLUM FICTION OF ALBION TOURGÉE, CHARLES CHESNUTT, GEORGE WASHINGTON CABLE, AND MARK TWAIN by KATHERINE BROWN BARROW (Under the Direction of James Nagel) ABSTRACT In the literary movements of Regionalism and Realism that emerged in the wake of the Civil War, Albion Tourgée (1838-1905), Mark Twain (1835-1910), George Washington Cable (1844-1925), and Charles Chesnutt (1858-1932) contributed to the growing field of Southern fiction within these traditions. With varying degrees of verisimilitude, romance, and satire, all four of these authors placed issues of race and nationhood at the thematic center of their most influential novels. In many of their postbellum works of fiction, such as The Grandissimes, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Pudd’nhead Wilson and Those Extraordinary Twins, A Fool’s Errand, Bricks without Straw, Mandy Oxendine, The Conjure Woman, The House Behind the Cedars, and The Marrow of Tradition, they explored the persisting racial problems of American life in the last quarter of the nineteenth-century and developed themes that suggested that the nation was still mired in the problems of its past. Perhaps the most significant aspect their postwar novels share is the manner in which they present African American protagonists who actively pursue a better life for themselves by challenging the white patriarchal order. Through various methods of empowerment, such as verbal trickery, escaping slavery, passing into white life, educational and economic advancement, as well as the subversive acts of protest, violence, and revenge, these characters refuse to submit to the social hierarchy to which they are bound by either custom or law.

AMARANTE GALLEYFINAL 2/15/2018 12:13 PM WHY DON’T SOME WHITE SUPREMACIST GROUPS PAY TAXES? Eric Franklin Amarante* ABSTRACT A number of white supremacist groups enjoy tax-exempt status. These hate groups do not have to pay federal taxes and people who give money to these groups may take deductions on their personal taxes. This recognition not only results in potential lost revenue for government programs, but it also serves as a public subsidy of racist propaganda and operates as the federal government’s imprimatur of white supremacist activities. This is all due to an unnecessarily broad definition of “educational” that somehow encompasses the activities of universities, symphonies, and white supremacists. This Essay suggests a change in the Treasury Regulations to restrict the definition of educational organizations to refer only to traditional, degree-granting institutions, distance-learning organizations, or certain other enumerated entities.
