  • Civil Rights Activism in Raleigh and Durham, North Carolina, 1960-1963
    SUTTELL, BRIAN WILLIAM, Ph.D. Campus to Counter: Civil Rights Activism in Raleigh and Durham, North Carolina, 1960-1963. (2017) Directed by Dr. Charles C. Bolton. 296 pp. This work investigates civil rights activism in Raleigh and Durham, North Carolina, in the early 1960s, especially among students at Shaw University, Saint Augustine’s College (Saint Augustine’s University today), and North Carolina College at Durham (North Carolina Central University today). Their significance in challenging traditional practices in regard to race relations has been underrepresented in the historiography of the civil rights movement. Students from these three historically black schools played a crucial role in bringing about the end of segregation in public accommodations and the reduction of discriminatory hiring practices. While student activists often proceeded from campus to the lunch counters to participate in sit-in demonstrations, their actions also represented a counter to businesspersons and politicians who sought to preserve a segregationist view of Tar Heel hospitality. The research presented in this dissertation demonstrates the ways in which ideas of academic freedom gave additional ideological force to the civil rights movement and helped garner support from students and faculty from the “Research Triangle” schools comprised of North Carolina State College (North Carolina State University today), Duke University, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Many students from both the “Protest Triangle” (my term for the activists at the three historically black schools) and “Research Triangle” schools viewed efforts by local and state politicians to thwart student participation in sit-ins and other forms of protest as a restriction of their academic freedom.

  • Chavis Park Carousel Landmark Designation Report Prepared for the Raleigh Historic Districts Commission
    Chavis Park Carousel Landmark Designation Report Prepared for the Raleigh Historic Districts Commission Originally Prepared January 2001 By M. Ruth Little Longleaf Historic Resources Revised February 2008 By April Montgomery Circa, Inc. 1 of 18 Physical Description The Chavis Park Carousel stands in the center of Chavis Park on Chavis Way. It is sheltered within a frame pavilion on the south side of Park Road, an internal street within the park. The twenty‐three acre park is located in southeast Raleigh between East Lenoir Street and Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. The carousel was installed in the park on July 2, 1937. Experts estimate the date of manufacture of the carousel to be between 1916 and 1923, because it closely resembles a documented 1916 Herschell Carousel1. Carousel: The carousel, known as a ʺNo. 2, Special Three Abreast, Allan Herschell Carousel, was purchased from the Allan Herschell Company of North Tonawanda, New York, for $4,000 in 1937. The carousel had been designed and used for traveling shows originally, and was refurbished prior to its sale to the City of Raleigh. The Herschell Company catalogue describes this model as a forty‐foot carousel containing: thirty‐six hand‐carved horses (outer row studded with jewels) and two beautifully carved double‐seat Chariots. Passenger capacity 48 persons. All horses are jumpers. Horse Hanger pipe and platform hanger pipe is encased in polished Brass. The Cornice, Shields and panel Picture Center are highly decorated works of art and are wired for 196 lights. Oil paintings and hand carvings combine with bright colors to produce a beautiful and practical machine.

  • Study List Application of Chavis Park, Raleigh NC
    To: National Register Review Board and NC HPO staff From: Mary Ruffin Hanbury and Jeffrey A. Harris, consultants Date: 8 April 2014 Re: Considerations for the Study List Application of Chavis Park, Raleigh NC The Study List application for Chavis Park in Raleigh raises a number of issues that are perhaps addressed outside of the application itself. As such, this accompanying memo will address: Issues Concerning Representation of African American Sites on the National Register, Chavis Park as a Traditional Cultural Property, Integrity—African American, and Cultural Landscape Considerations, Design Aspects of Jim Crow-related Resources, and Designating Resources with Unpleasant Histories Issues Concerning Representation of African American Sites on the National Register Heather Lynn MacDonald, in her thesis The National Register of Historic Places and African American Heritage, examines the preservation movement in America and its Eurocentric antecedents. Designed from a cultural perspective that was not particularly diverse, programs developed in the 1960s such as the National Register have subsequently been revised to help broaden the canon of “the official list of the Nation's historic places worthy of preservation.” However, MacDonald argues convincingly that the dearth of racial and ethnic diversity among professional preservationists reinforces an orientation that is not so much racist as ignorant of what constitutes significance from an African American perspective. In the 1980s, many historic sites began to be “re-interpreted” to include an understanding not only of the role of the dominant culture in their stories but also of minorities. That said, an evaluation of the National Register in 2004 found that only 1% of properties listed in the National Register were significant for their associations with African American culture and history.

  • City of Raleigh Neighborland Perry Street Studio LLC Dorothea Dix Park Master Plan Community Outreach & Engagement Executive Summary
    Public Engagement Source: City of Raleigh Neighborland Perry Street Studio LLC Dorothea Dix Park Master Plan Community Outreach & Engagement Executive Summary The City of Raleigh, with the support of the Dorothea Dix Park Conservancy, is leading a generational effort to develop Dorothea Dix Park. This success of this effort lies in the ability to create a deep and meaningful connection between the community and the park. In terms of scale and scope, the outreach associated with the Master Plan is unprecedented in city projects. This strategy presents a thoughtful, coordinated and ambitious approach to meaningful outreach and engagement. Parks are one of the most democratic spaces in a community. The City of Raleigh has made it a priority to create a diverse and equitable master planning process for Dix Park that serves all of Raleigh’s residents and beyond. The Outreach and Engagement Strategy is couched in an equity framework that details the objectives, implementation, and evaluation of an inclusive and accessible planning process. This strategy takes a multi-faceted and flexible approach to outreach and engagement. From traditional community meetings to experience-based events, programs and online participation, this strategy provides multiple channels to reach a broad and diverse audience. The goal is to provide a variety of opportunities for individuals to explore and shape the future of Dorothea Dix Park. Finally, this strategy was built around the schedule set forth by the Master Plan consultant, Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates (MVVA). Engagement opportunities were be designed to facilitate dialogue between the community and MVVA. The process was iterative with engagement continually informing the evolution of the Dorothea Dix Park Master Plan.
