Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Barbara Friedman Lois Boynton Trevy McDonald Earnest Perry Ronald Stephens © 2016 Denise Hill ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Denise Hill: Public Relations, Racial Injustice, and the 1958 North Carolina Kissing Case (Under the direction of Dr. Barbara Friedman) This dissertation examines how public relations was used by the Committee to Combat Racial Injustice (CCRI), the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), North Carolina Governor Luther Hodges, and the United States Information Agency (USIA) in regards to the 1958 kissing case. The kissing case occurred in Monroe, North Carolina when a group of children were playing, including two African American boys, age nine and eight, and a seven-year-old white girl. During the game, the nine-year-old boy and the girl exchanged a kiss. As a result, the police later arrested both boys and charged them with assaulting and molesting the girl. They were sentenced to a reformatory, with possible release for good behavior at age 21. The CCRI launched a public relations campaign to gain the boys’ freedom, and the NAACP implemented public relations tactics on the boys’ behalf. News of the kissing case spread overseas, drawing unwanted international attention to US racial problems at a time when the country was promoting worldwide democracy.

  • Black Power on North Carolina College Campuses. (Under the Direction of Dr
    ABSTRACT SMITH, LINDA FARRIS. “Nothing Short of Revolution”: Black Power on North Carolina College Campuses. (Under the direction of Dr. Katherine Mellen Charron). This thesis explores the relationships between the national Black Power Movement and desegregation politics in North Carolina higher education in the late 1960s and 1970s. During this time, North Carolina’s system of higher education remained embroiled in a battle to stall integration despite extensive federal intervention. Meanwhile, black college students in the state employed the politics of self-determination and sophisticated organizing tactics to wage their own campaigns for the power to shape their higher education experience. This thesis shows how these two issues – desegregation and Black Power – affected the activist goals and protest strategies of black students at both historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs), and predominantly white institutions. Although recent scholarship has begun to address the Black Power Movement on college campuses in other regions of the United States, studies of the South remain underrepresented. This analysis offers the first comparative view of black student activism at HBCUs across the state, and reveals a more complex narrative of Black Power politics that manifested in rural and urban regions, and whose chronological scope extends beyond national trends. It also reveals the overt failures of North Carolina higher education desegregation policies, thus challenging depictions of the state and its actions during this period as progressive. Relying on university governance records; institutional funding, enrollment, and academic program data; oral history interviews; campus newspapers; and other student publications, this thesis documents black students’ struggle for educational access, institutional equity, and student autonomy.

  • Abstract Cates, Madison Ward
    ABSTRACT CATES, MADISON WARD. “White Men Without Side-Arms:” Moderation, Manhood, and the Politics of Civil Rights in North Carolina, 1960-1965. (Under the direction of Dr. Katherine Mellen Charron). Much of the existing historiography on the Civil Rights Movement in North Carolina either focuses on grassroots activists at the community level or on debates about whether the state’s white citizens exhibited “progressive” views on race or not. This study seeks to bridge this gap by examining the relationships and political struggles between African American activists, white moderates, and arch-segregationists at the state level from 1960 to 1965. Throughout, broader ideas about gender, race, religion, and democracy are analyzed in order to move beyond oversimplified narratives that accentuate the bold, progressive outlooks of white moderates, reduce their segregationist opponents to caricatures, and diminish the role that African Americans played in challenging white political dominance. In particular, this paper explores how African-Americans leveraged the state’s “progressive mystique” to obtain greater concessions from white moderate politicians, especially Governor Terry Sanford. Yet, white moderates also confronted strident objections to any change from white supremacists. In order to mollify the demands of both groups, Sanford’s leadership exemplified a temperate realpolitik that opposed direct action campaigns and promoted racial harmony, quality public education, and robust economic development. It also reflected the ways in which events forced him to do in gendered terms. When black activists filled the streets and public facilities of North Carolina employing non-violent direct action as consistent with their dignity as men and citizens, Sanford and other white moderates responded by recasting southern manhood on ideas of law and order and Christian brotherhood.

THE "OLD" BLACK CORPORATE BAR: DURHAM'S WALL STREET, 1898-1971* AMOS N. JONES" Over the last twenty years, eminent scholars such as David Wilkins have paid considerable attention to the "new black corporate bar" as a phenomenon worthy of treatment. This Article builds on that work by introducing a fascinating law- practice reality that developed in a unique setting in the early 1900s American South. What if Wall Street had been black? What if its elite feeder institutions had been black? What if the black bar were, in a corporate economy of scale, relatively sizable? These questions might make for fascinating counterfactuals, if not for the concrete reality that such a community-albeit small-actually existed, expanded, and prospered in midcentury Durham, North Carolina. Coining the term "old black corporatebar" to stand in distinction to the "new black corporate bar," the Article analyzes the world in which that exceptional and heretofore unexamined black bar germinated and influenced a relatively sophisticated legal landscape in a moderate, midsized southern city backdropped by a laissez-faire white leadership class that proved progressive for racialrelations.
