  • The Negro Press and the Image of Success: 1920-19391 Ronald G
    the negro press and the image of success: 1920-19391 ronald g. waiters For all the talk of a "New Negro," that period between the first two world wars of this century produced many different Negroes, just some of them "new." Neither in life nor in art was there a single figure in whose image the whole race stood or fell; only in the minds of most Whites could all Blacks be lumped together. Chasms separated W. E. B. DuBois, icy, intellectual and increasingly radical, from Jesse Binga, prosperous banker, philanthropist and Roman Catholic. Both of these had little enough in common with the sharecropper, illiterate and bur­ dened with debt, perhaps dreaming of a North where—rumor had it—a man could make a better living and gain a margin of respect. There was Marcus Garvey, costumes and oratory fantastic, wooing the Black masses with visions of Africa and race glory while Father Divine promised them a bi-racial heaven presided over by a Black god. Yet no history of the time should leave out that apostle of occupational training and booster of business, Robert Russa Moton. And perhaps a place should be made for William S. Braithwaite, an aesthete so anonymously genteel that few of his White readers realized he was Black. These were men very different from Langston Hughes and the other Harlem poets who were finding music in their heritage while rejecting capitalistic America (whose chil­ dren and refugees they were). And, in this confusion of voices, who was there to speak for the broken and degraded like the pitiful old man, born in slavery ninety-two years before, paraded by a Mississippi chap­ ter of the American Legion in front of the national convention of 1923 with a sign identifying him as the "Champeen Chicken Thief of the Con­ federate Army"?2 In this cacaphony, and through these decades of alternate boom and bust, one particular voice retained a consistent message, though condi­ tions might prove the message itself to be inconsistent.

  • Methodism's Splendid Mission: the Black Colleges
    Methodist History, 22:3 (April /984) METHODISM'S SPLENDID MISSION: THE BLACK COLLEGES JAMES S. THOMAS In the past, many historians of higher education often accepted the twin generalizations that black colleges, (1) "while collegiate in name, did not remotely resemble a college in standards or facilities,"l and (2) that the history of these colleges, while probably important as early hTi'Ssionary ventures, would hardly rate complete chapters in general histories of higher education. This essay begins as a direct challenge to both points of view. Among otheT propositions, it will be argued (1) that, while the contrast between the facilities and standards ofblack and white colleges is dramatically real, it is by no means an unbroken contrast, and (2) admitting the truth of the missionary beginnings of the early black colleges, there is a much greater story of their survival and their production of a group of leaders whose quality stands high on any national standard of leadership. Indeed, the major purpose of this essay is not to argue a particular point, such as any one of the too-easy generalizations of many historians, but to tell the remarkable story of the black colleges of the United Methodist Church. The Earliest of Foundations The history of the black colleges, like that of all institutional history, J predated the founding of any particular institution. Perhaps it is important 1 for United Methodists to remember, in this bicentennial year, that the founder of Methodism, John Wesley, held very strong views about educa,. tion and the worth of every human being.

UMI films the text directly from the original or copy submitted. Thus, some thesis and dissertation copies are in typewriter face, while others may be from any type of computer printer. The quality of this reproduction is dependent upon the quality of the copy submitted. Broken or indistinct print, colored or poor quality illustrations and photographs, print bleedthrough, substandard margins, and improper alignment can adversely affect reproduction.
