  • More Than Mrs Robinson: Citizenship Schools in Lowcountry South Carolina and Savannah, Georgia, 1957-1970
    More Than Mrs Robinson: Citizenship Schools in Lowcountry South Carolina and Savannah, Georgia, 1957-1970 (A Dissertation submitted in requirement for the Degree of Doctor in Philosophy, The University of Nottingham, October 2009) Clare Russell 1 Abstract The first ―citizenship school‖ (a literacy class that taught adults to read and write in order that they could register to vote) was established by Highlander Folk School of Monteagle, Tennessee on Johns Island, South Carolina in 1957. Within three years, the schools were extended across the neighboring Sea Islands, to mainland Charleston and to Savannah, Georgia. In 1961, after Highlander faced legal challenges to its future, it transferred the schools to the fledgling Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), who extended the program across the South. Historians have made far-reaching claims for the successes and benefits of the schools. For example, they claim that they recruited inexperienced but committed people and raised them to the status of community leaders; that they encouraged civic cooperation and political activism and formed the ―foundation on which the civil rights movement‖ was built and they argue that the schools were an unprecedented opportunity for women to develop as activists and as leaders. Yet, they base these claims on certain myths about the schools: that the first teacher Bernice Robinson was an inexperienced and uneducated teacher, that her class was a blueprint for similar ones and that Highlander bequeathed its educational philosophy to the SCLC program. They make claims about female participation without analyzing the gender composition of classes. This dissertation challenges these assumptions by comparing and contrasting programs established in Lowcountry South Carolina and in Savannah.

  • Celebrates 25 Years. 25Th Anniversary Collector’S Edition Dear Students, Educators,And Friends
    South Carolina African American History Calendar Celebrates 25 Years. 25th Anniversary Collector’s Edition Dear Students, Educators,and Friends, One of the highlights of my year is the unveiling of the new African American History Calendar, for it is always a wonderful time of renewing friendships, connecting with new acquaintances, and honoring a remarkable group of South Carolinians. This year is even more exciting, for the 2014 calendar is our 25th Anniversary Edition! For a quarter of a century, the Calendar project has celebrated the lives, leadership, and experiences of gifted people who have shaped who we are as a State and as South Carolinians. Initially developed as a resource for teachers as they include African American history in their classroom curriculum, the Calendar has become a virtual Hall of Fame, combining recognition with education and drawing online visitors from around the globe. Thus far, 297 African Americans with South Carolina roots have been featured on the Calendar’s pages. They represent a wide array of endeavors, including government and military service, education, performing and fine arts, business, community activism, and athletics. They hail from every corner of the state, from rural communities to our largest cities. And each has made a difference for people and for their communities. The Calendar, with its supporting educational materials, has always been designed to help students understand that history is about people and their actions, not simply dates or places. While previous editions have focused on individuals, the 25th Anniversary Edition spotlights 12 milestone events in South Carolina’s African American History. Driven by men and women of courage and conviction, these events helped lay the foundation for who we are today as a State and who we can become.

Conceptually, the two are salient for research related to learning and educational rights. Accordant with a cultural- historical framework, we have adopted and modified a social interactional methodological approach that allows us to set forth indicia of meaningful participation and educational dignity.

  • Nadia Venturini* DIRITTO DI VOTO E ALFABETIZZAZIONE. BERNICE
    Iperstoria – Testi Letterature Linguaggi www.iperstoria.it Rivista semestrale ISSN 2281-4582 Nadia Venturini* DIRITTO DI VOTO E ALFABETIZZAZIONE. BERNICE ROBINSON E LE CITIZENSHIP SCHOOLS DELLE SEA ISLANDS Quando Lyndon Johnson, il 6 agosto 1965, appose la sua firma al Voting Rights Act, tenne fede alla promessa enunciata nello storico discorso alla nazione del 15 marzo. Tale discorso era stato pronunciato al termine di dure trattative tra la presidenza e il movimento guidato da Martin Luther King, Jr., e soprattutto al culmine del periodo di violenza e attenzione mediatica concentrato nella località di Selma, Alabama (Garrow 1978, 31-35; Garrow 1986, 358-9; May 53-148). Alcuni storici hanno giustamente sottolineato che per il movimento afroamericano giungere al VRA entro il 1965 era un imperativo non solo in termini morali e politici, ma soprattutto strategici: Johnson era stato riletto nel 1964, dopo l’approvazione del Civil Rights Act, che dalla prospettiva dei politici bianchi rappresentava una conquista ragguardevole. L’anno successivo si presentava come una sorta di “finestra di opportunità” in cui ottenere una legge sul diritto di voto, obiettivo ancor più ambizioso, perché destinato a modificare gli equilibri elettorali nel sud, e anche a rappresentare una svolta per gli equilibri interni del partito democratico (Dudziak; Wright 13-22; Vallelly 194). Il movimento di Selma era stato un’azione di militanza politica organizzata, che mirava a portare allo scoperto il razzismo violento dello sceriffo Jim Clark, e a rendere nota all’intero paese la violazione dei diritti umani che si perpetrava in alcune zone del sud. Tuttavia Selma non fu un punto d’inizio, ma piuttosto un epicentro di un movimento che durava da anni, addirittura da decenni, per ottenere garanzie al diritto di voto per gli afroamericani del sud.
