SHARP-Information Deck-2020 Sugar Hill Arts Revival Project SHARP is a LA-based collaborative initiative that allows us to honor the legacy of our creative ancestors while sparking a modern day renaissance. AMAZING GRACE CONSERVATORY GAILEN AND CATHY REEVERS CENTER USC SCHOOL OF DRAMATIC ARTS ABOUT THE PROJECT ARTS. HISTORY. CULTURE. SHARP is a multi-faceted initiative that sheds light on the rich arts history of well-known African American entertainers who resided in Los Angeles’ “Sugar Hill District” during the 1940-50’s. SHARP implores the community to engage with art, culture, and history through multiple mediums and platforms. From a virtual museum to theatrical reenactments to social media challenges, the project provides exciting avenues for cross-generational participation, in order to preserve history and expand the opportunities of future generations. Each of the project components serve as educational vessels, allowing us to recognize the persistent effort of an illustrious group of African American trailblazers. Courageous leaders who stood up against injustice and created paths for others to do the same. SHARP MISSION The SHARP project, funded through the CA Arts Council, allows us to revitalize and re-imagine the Sugar Hill Arts District not only as a historic preservation site and landmark destination of African- American history, arts, activism, civic engagement, leadership, and strategic vision — but also as a site of community building and urban renewal. The goal of the S.H.A.R.P project is to engage the community in recognizing the significance of the arts, and provide avenues for residents to participate in social and artistic initiatives, to preserve history and expand the opportunities for future generations.

CENTRAL HISTORICAL QUESTION: Considering issues of race, housing, and the struggle for civil rights in post-World War II Los Angeles, how valid is the statement from some in the African American community looking back: “We got what we wanted, but we lost what we had”? Before WWII: • 1940s and 1950s - Segregation in housing. • Shelley v. Kraemer, 1948 and Barrows vs. Jackson, 1953 – U.S. Supreme Court decisions abolish. • Map activities - Internet-based research on the geographic and demographic movements of the African American community in Los Angeles. • Locating homes of prominent African Americans. • Shift of African Americans away from central city to middle-class communities outside of the ghetto, resulting in a poorer and more segregated central city.

  • Japanese Americans and the Origins of Strict Scrutiny
    05_ROBINSON_FIXED PROOFS.DOC 11/22/2005 11:32 AM KOREMATSU AND BEYOND: JAPANESE AMERICANS AND THE ORIGINS OF STRICT SCRUTINY GREG ROBINSON AND TONI ROBINSON* I INTRODUCTION The story of the United States Supreme Court’s epochal 1954 ruling in Brown v. Board of Education1 and the legal struggle for civil rights led by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) dur- ing the decade following World War II occupies a central place in many Ameri- cans’ understanding both of the history of democracy in the United States and of the African American experience. Under the direction of Chief Counsel Thurgood Marshall, the NAACP’s Legal Defense and Education Fund and al- lied attorneys brought a series of civil rights cases before the U.S. Supreme Court. Its campaign culminated triumphantly in Brown and its companion case Bolling v. Sharpe,2 in which the Court struck down school segregation. It was in the Bolling case that the Court clearly and definitively established its doctrine of “strict scrutiny.” According to this doctrine, race was a “suspect classification” under the Constitution, meaning that the Court would subject any action by the government that involved a racial classification to a searching examination, rather than assume its constitutionality, and that it would hold the action to be unconstitutional unless it served a compelling state interest and was narrowly tailored to meet that interest. The Court’s doctrine of strict scrutiny removed the constitutional underpinnings of Jim Crow and thus paved the way for its subsequent civil rights decisions during the 1960s.

INTRODUCTION In 1996, Marvin Roger Anderson, State Law Librarian at the Minnesota State Law Library, proposed an ambitious research agenda to explore the history of African American Law Librarians.1 Anderson suggested researchers focus on the law libraries of the historically African American law schools, noting that, to date, only one history had been written.2 In addition, Anderson suggested researching the relationship between the American Association of Law Libraries (AALL) and the historically African American law school libraries and their staff.3 Ten years later, the law librarian community has yet to produce any significant scholarship in response to Anderson’s proposed research agenda. This essay accepts the challenge presented by Anderson by providing a history of Lincoln University Law School (1939-1955), America’s first Jim Crow Law School, profiling its staff, and documenting its relationship with the AALL.
