  • American Revolutionary: the Evolution of Grace Lee Boggs a Film by Grace Lee Produced by Grace Lee, Caroline Libresco and Austin Wilkin
    POV Community Engagement & Education DISCUSSION GUIDE American Revolutionary: The Evolution of Grace Lee Boggs A Film by Grace Lee Produced by Grace Lee, Caroline Libresco and Austin Wilkin www.pbs.org/pov LETTER FROM THE FILMMAKER I first met Grace Lee Boggs in 2000 while filming “The Grace Lee Project,” a documentary about the many women who share our common name and the model minority stereotype of Asian Americans. From the moment I met Boggs, I knew I would have to make a longer film just about her. Over the years, I would return to Detroit, hang out in her kitchen and living room and watch her hold in thrall everyone from journalists to renowned activists to high school students. I recognized the same thing in myself that I saw in all of them—eagerness to connect with someone who seemed to embody history itself. As someone who came of age in the era of identity politics, I would have found it hard to ignore the fascinating details of how this Chinese-American woman became a Black Power activist in Detroit. But Boggs would constantly use our interview sessions to turn the questions back on me. “What do you think about that? How do you feel about what's happening in Korea? Tell me more about your own story,” she would say as soon as the cameras turned off. My own identity is more wrapped up in Boggs’s story than she knows. And it’s not because we share the same name. Boggs’s presence—in Detroit, in the world and in my imagination—has helped transform my own thinking about how to tell a story about someone like her.

  • THE POLITICAL THOUGHT of the THIRD WORLD LEFT in POST-WAR AMERICA a Dissertation Submitted
    LIBERATION FROM THE AFFLUENT SOCIETY: THE POLITICAL THOUGHT OF THE THIRD WORLD LEFT IN POST-WAR AMERICA A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History By Benjamin Feldman, M.A. Washington, DC August 6, 2020 Copyright 2020 by Benjamin Feldman All Rights Reserved ii LIBERATION FROM THE AFFLUENT SOCIETY: THE POLITICAL THOUGHT OF THE THIRD WORLD LEFT IN POST-WAR AMERICA Benjamin Feldman, M.A. Thesis Advisor: Michael Kazin, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This dissertation traces the full intellectual history of the Third World Turn: when theorists and activists in the United States began to look to liberation movements within the colonized and formerly colonized nations of the ‘Third World’ in search of models for political, social, and cultural transformation. I argue that, understood as a critique of the limits of New Deal liberalism rather than just as an offshoot of New Left radicalism, Third Worldism must be placed at the center of the history of the post-war American Left. Rooting the Third World Turn in the work of theorists active in the 1940s, including the economists Paul Sweezy and Paul Baran, the writer Harold Cruse, and the Detroit organizers James and Grace Lee Boggs, my work moves beyond simple binaries of violence vs. non-violence, revolution vs. reform, and utopianism vs. realism, while throwing the political development of groups like the Black Panthers, the Young Lords, the League of Revolutionary Black Workers, and the Third World Women’s Alliance into sharper relief.

  • Grace Lee Boggs: Celebrated Civil Rights Activist
    Grace Lee Boggs: Celebrated Civil Rights Activist Grace Lee Boggs was a celebrated civil rights activist, author, philosopher, and feminist. She was a fearless champion of anti-racism and was a leader of several marxist and revolutionary Anti-Stalinists communist splinter groups. She believed that women needed to be treated and judged by the same standards as men. Her family operated a restaurant on Broadway in Manhattan called Chin Lee’s. Eventually, her father opened a second establishment named Chin’s. She went to Barnard College when she was 16 and became fascinated by the works of G.W.F. Hegel and Immanual Kant. In 1940, she graduated from Bryn Mawr where she received a PhD in Philosophy. Boggs lived between Chicago and New York in her youth and then later moved to Detroit in the late 1940s. Despite having a PhD, Boggs was unable to find employment in the United States due to anti-Asian sentiment. Eventually, she found work at the University of Chicago Philosophy Library, making $10 a week, and lived in a basement apartment. Her experiences living in the squalid, rat-infested building led her to join her fellow tenants — most of whom were black — in protests for better living conditions. Through her new friends, she became involved in A. Philip Randolph’s work organizing a march on Washington for jobs. When she saw the result — President Franklin D. Roosevelt issued Executive Order 802 banning discrimination in defense plants — she realized the power of the people. While living in both Chicago and New York, she joined the Workers Party (WP), a Troskyite political party that opposed the Soviet Union and which was committed to Socialist Revolution.

This is the case, in part, because this page is one of the final tasks which mark the completion of the dissertation writing process.

  • Integrating Asian American Narratives Into Elementary Social Studies
    Integrating asian american Narratives into Elementary Social Studies Instructional topics/themes: Immigration, Civil Rights, Labor Rights, Interracial Alliances When teaching about Cesar Chavez and the United Farm Workers... TEKS K2A, 1.2C, 1.13A, 2.4A, 2.13A, 3.1A, 3.11A, 4.12A, 4.12D, 4.17A, 5.5C, 5.19C, 5.22C Missing from this narrative are Asian American laborers, particularly in California, who worked alongside Mexican migrants and were essential to agricultural development in the West. In the famed farmworker march from Delano to Sacramento in 1966 and subsequent grape boycott, Filipino and Mexican workers joined together: Cesar Chavez’ National Farm Workers Association merged with the Filipino Agricultural Workers Organizing Committee (AWOC) to form the UFW – a fact not portrayed in popular tradebooks. Braun's (1996) Cesar Chavez: Fighting for Farmworkers includes describes the Filipinos' initiation of the Delano grape strike and later solidarity between Filipinos and Chicanos, facts omitted in the vast majority of picture books about Cesar Chavez. Altman's (1996) The Importance of Cesar Chavez dedicates much of its section on Filipino farmworkers to the life of Filipino AWOC and UFW leader Larry Itliong. The free Teaching Tolerance video Viva la Causa includes interviews with UFW leaders such as Chicana Dolores Huerta and Filipino Andy Imutan; while Viva la Causa contains some strong language, its combination of historical film, interviews, and reenactments are particularly compelling for older elementary children. The short documentary Delano Manongs (Aroy, 2014) focuses on the forgotten narratives of Filipino immigrant laborers, known as the manongs.

  • My Name Is Grace Lee Boggs. I'm 92 Years Old. I've Lived in Detroit Since
    MS. BOGGS : My name is Grace Lee Boggs. I'm 92 years old. I've lived in Detroit since 1953, most of that time in the same house. In 1960s, my late husband, James Boggs, who worked in Chrysler as an African- American auto worker, activist and writer, and I was very active in the Black Power Movement in Detroit. When the rebellion broke out in July 1967, we were on vacation in California; but before we left by car, Jimmy told the members of the inner city organizing committee to expect a rebellion because of the predominantly white police force was harassing young blacks just walking down the street. When we returned a week later, we discovered that we were among the six Black Power activists literally responsible for the uprising. The 1967 rebellion was so massive that the Detroit establishment realized that white political power could no longer maintain law and order in the city. So, black political power began with the election of Coleman Young in 1963. As the mayor Young could integrate the police and fire department, but neither he nor his successors could slow down the deindustrialization of Detroit, nor could they project a vision for a new kind of postindustrial city. The best Young could do after nearly four terms as mayor was to propose a gaming industry in 1988 to replace the auto industry. This year, 2007, is the 40th anniversary of the 1967 rebellion. This is also the 40th anniversary of Martin Luther King's April 1967 anti-Vietnam war speech for which he called for a radical revolution in values against the giant triplets -- racism, militarism and materialism -- and for going beyond traditional capitalism and Communism.
