THE TALLAHASSEE BUS PROTEST Community Background Tallahassee is a small city (population 27,237 in 1950) in a state which con- tains some of the most rapidly growing urban areas in the southeast. It is not an important industrial center. Its chief importance lies in the fact that it is the state capital. Perhaps its next most important characteristic is that it is the seat of two of the state's institutions of higher learning: Florida State University (white) and Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University (Negro).

  • President's Remarks for Tallahassee Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King

    President's Remarks for Tallahassee Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King

    President’s Remarks for Tallahassee Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Day “The URGENCY of NOW” Thank you to Ms. Cummings for that wonderful introduction and for all that you do to lead our efforts and engagement with Florida Agricultural & Mechanical University alumni. We appreciate your leadership. I am honored to be here with you today as we celebrate the life and legacy of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., on what would have been his 90th birthday weekend. Standing on these steps has special significance, beyond symbolism. Many of the laws that govern this great state are crafted and decided upon right here. Resources/dollars that support everything from education to health care to transportation to public safety are decided upon here by the men and women elected by citizens from the panhandle to the Florida Keys. From a distance, or from the perspective of the casual observer, it might seem as though the processes associated with what happens in the Florida Legislature are intermittent, starting at a specific date - ending on another. But when viewed much closer and by the astute observer it becomes obvious that political processes in Florida and equally in our nation in general, don’t have temporal boundaries defined by specific dates and times but rather they are continuous: occurring at sunrise, sundown, throughout the night – and throughout all seasons of the year. And thus to influence what happens here, there must be an appreciation for the simple concepts of persistence and perseverance; not waiting for tomorrow, not waiting until your ducks are all lined up in a row, not waiting until you can afford to take a risk because your finances are finally in order.
  • A COMPARATIVE STUDY of the NATION of ISLAM and ISLAM Dwi

    A COMPARATIVE STUDY of the NATION of ISLAM and ISLAM Dwi

    A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE NATION OF ISLAM AND ISLAM Dwi Hesti Yuliani-Sato A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2007 Committee: Dr. Lillian Ashcraft-Eason, Advisor Dr. Awad Ibrahim ©2007 Dwi Hesti Yuliani-Sato All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Lillian Ashcraft-Eason, Advisor This study compares the Nation of Islam with the religion of Islam to understand the extent of its religious kinship to Islam. As with other religions, there are various understandings of Islam and no single agreement on what constitutes being a Muslim. With regard to that matter, the Nation of Islam’s (NOI) teachings and beliefs are regarded as unconventional if viewed from the conventions of Islam. Being unconventional in terms of doctrines and having a focus on racial struggle rather than on religious nurturing position the Nation of Islam more as a social movement than as a religious organization. Further, this raises a question, to some parties, of whether the NOI’s members are Muslims in the sense of mainstream Islam’s standard. It is the issue of conventional versus unconventional that is at the core of this study. The methodologies used are observation, interview, and literary research. Prior to writing the thesis, research on the Nation of Islam in Toledo was conducted. The researcher observed the Nation of Islam in Toledo and Savannah, Georgia, and interviewed some people from the Nation of Islam in Toledo and Detroit as well as a historian of religion from Bowling Green State University.

  • Hutchinson on Ezra, 'Civil Rights Movement: People and Perspectives'

    H-Florida Hutchinson on Ezra, 'Civil Rights Movement: People and Perspectives' Review published on Wednesday, October 7, 2009 Michael Ezra, ed. Civil Rights Movement: People and Perspectives. Perspectives in American Social History Series. Santa Barbara: ABC-CLIO, 2009. 250 pp. $85.00 (cloth), ISBN 978-1-59884-037-7. Reviewed by Daniel Hutchinson (Florida State University) Published on H-Florida (October, 2009) Commissioned by Jeanine A. Clark Bremer A Useful Reference Work on the Civil Rights Movement The annual outpouring of new studies on the civil rights movement marks this field as one of the most dynamic bodies of scholarship in American historiography. The field certainly has experienced broadened boundaries over the last decade. The first generation of historians who chronicled the civil rights movement focused on the most prominent personalities, organizations, and events in the American South that spanned a period from the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision to the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. in 1968. Many recent scholars of the civil rights movement have expanded their focus both thematically and chronologically. Numerous studies documenting the grassroots efforts of African Americans throughout the nation against segregation and discrimination have demonstrated the breadth and complexity of a popular movement that spanned from the first years of the twentieth century and whose impact is still felt in the twenty-first century. It is this recent approach that informs the methodology behind Civil Rights Movement. This reference work provides a succinct, well-written, and balanced overview of some of the major themes in the recent history of the civil rights movement.
