During the last six years the civil rights movement of the 1950-60s has proved to be one of the most popular areas of research, particularly among undergraduates and sixth-form students. The enquiries have covered many different aspects of the movement: school desegregation, bus boycotts, sit-ins, marches, the involvement of white northern college students, the actions of individuals such as Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King, Jr., and the reactions of white southerners and the federal government. This guide will facilitate research on these topics and many others. It includes not only books and periodical articles which are housed in the Library’s humanities collections at St Pancras and the Document Supply Centre (DSC) at Boston Spa, but also newspaper and news magazine articles which are located at the British Library Newspaper Library at Colindale. The shelf-marks for the former appear in parentheses at the end of each entry while the latter may be identified by the notation BLNL. GENERAL WORKS ADAMS, A. JOHN and JOAN MARTIN BURKE.

    American Prophet: Martin Luther King, Jr. By Sakuma Semba A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate School of the University of Colorado in Partial Fulfillment Of the requirement for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Religious Studies 2011 This thesis entitled: American Prophet: Martin Luther King, Jr. written by Sakuma Semba has been approved for the Department of Religious Studies Dr. Ira Chernus Dr. Greg Johnson Dr. Deborah Whitehead Date The final copy of this thesis has been examined by the signatories, and we Find that both the content and the form meet acceptable presentation standards Of scholarly work in the above mentioned discipline. Sakuma Semba (M.A., Department of Religious Studies) American Prophet: Martin Luther King, Jr. Thesis directed by Professor Ira Chernus Abstract: In August 2011, after more than two decades of planning, fund-raising and construction, the Martin Luther King Jr. National Memorial— a four-acre tract south of the Mall featuring a granite statue of King — has opened to the public. King is officially enshrined in granite in the National Mall. A black preacher became a monument, a monument represents America. King is the prophet of American Civil Religion. This paper examines Martin Luther King, Jr. as the prophet of America and in the context of American Civil Religion. To begin, I will explore the concepts and definitions of the prophet, the civil religion, and the American Creed by analyzing Max Weber, Robert Bellah, Martin Marty, and Richard Hughes’s works. King’s thoughts, words and acts in the light of prophetic traditions and the Civil Religion will be further discussed.

  • Black Lives Matter”: Learning from the Present, Building on the Past
    From “We Shall Overcome” to “Black Lives Matter”: Learning from the Present, Building on the Past Abstract: The nationwide uprisings that have occurred since the George Floyd murder are a profound reminder that the racial inequities that have existed since the “founding” of the country. People of African descent have constantly been fighting for freedom, equity and equality. They continue to resist carefully structural impediments that are designed to maintain and preserve white privilege and power. I have been involved in an emerging organization at The George Washington Carver High School for Engineering and Science that is working toward achieving equity and awareness in our building and communities. One of the students’ main concerns is a lack of Afrocentric curricula. Much of my teaching career has been devoted to designing and implementing inquiry-based curricula that explicitly connects African and African-American literature, film, history and culture. This particular project emphasizes the roles of women in the classic civil rights movement and the current Black Lives Matter movement. Students will study individuals and create various texts that will serve to educate peers and other members of the school community. This project can be implemented in any context that will emerge this school year, whether it be distance learning, a hybrid model or in- person teaching and learning. Keywords: inquiry-based learning, culturally responsive teaching, collaborative learning, dialogic teaching, civil rights, Black Lives Matter, Black Art, feminist pedagogy. Content Objectives: Curriculum as Continuum Here is one response to a COVID-19 on-line assignment: Keyziah McCoy: If I could describe this year in one word it would be heart wrenching.
