  • A Case Study of Alabama State College Laboratory High School in Historical Context, 1920-1960
    A “Laboratory of Learning”: A Case Study of Alabama State College Laboratory High School in Historical Context, 1920-1960 Sharon G. Pierson Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 Sharon G. Pierson All rights reserved ABSTRACT A “Laboratory of Learning”: A Case Study of Alabama State College Laboratory High School in Historical Context, 1920-1960 Sharon G. Pierson In the first half of the twentieth century in the segregated South, Black laboratory schools began as “model,” “practice,” or “demonstration” schools that were at the heart of teacher training institutions at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). Central to the core program, they were originally designed to develop college-ready students, demonstrate effective teaching practices, and provide practical application for student teachers. As part of a higher educational institution and under the supervision of a college or university president, a number of these schools evolved to “laboratory” high schools, playing a role in the development of African American education beyond their own local communities. As laboratories for learning, experimentation, and research, they participated in major cooperative studies and hosted workshops. They not only educated the pupils of the lab school and the student teachers from the institution, but also welcomed visitors from other high schools and colleges with a charge to influence Black education. A case study of Alabama State College Laboratory School, 1920-1960, demonstrates the evolution of a lab high school as part of the core program at an HBCU and its distinctive characteristics of high graduation and college enrollment rates, well-educated teaching staff, and a comprehensive liberal arts curriculum.

  • These Separate Schools: Black Politics and Education in Washington, D.C., 1900-1930
    These Separate Schools: Black Politics and Education in Washington, D.C., 1900-1930 By Rachel Deborah Bernard A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Waldo Martin, Chair Professor Mark Brilliant Professor Malcolm Feeley Spring 2012 Abstract These Separate Schools: Black Politics and Education in Washington, D.C., 1900-1930 by Rachel Deborah Bernard Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Waldo Martin, Chair “These Separate Schools: Black Politics and Education in Washington, D.C., 1900-1930,” chronicles the efforts of black Washingtonians to achieve equitable public funding and administrative autonomy in their public schools and at Howard University. This project argues that over the course of the early twentieth century, black Washingtonians came to understand their two-pronged goals of administrative autonomy and equitable allocation of resources in both their public schools and at Howard in terms of civil rights. At the turn of the twentieth century, many African Americans in Washington defended their educational institutions as venues for individually demonstrating their own good citizenship and respectability, in other words as means to social and economic uplift. By the 1910s and 1920s, however, they spoke about equal educational opportunity as a civil right, guaranteed to all citizens by the Constitution. Also, while these struggles for educational equality began in the public schools, they were soon taken up by leaders at Howard University and its law school. In addition to educational equality, administrative autonomy was another key part of black Washingtonians’ rights agenda.

  • Huntsville, Alabama
    “Civil War Experience for Groups” Huntsville, Alabama Sample Itinerary Although its location insulated the state from much of the major Civil War military activity, Alabama hosted the infant Confederate States of America and fueled the Southern military effort with its young men and critical iron industry. In North Alabama, visitors have the opportunity to experience battle sites as well as a different side of the war. In Huntsville, you can experience an occupied city, see many structures that survived because of the occupation, explore the importance of supply lines and railroads and learn of the Civil War experience through the eyes of the women and slaves. Day 1: Enjoy lunch at Main Street Café in Downtown Madison, AL , originally the city’s town hall and jail! The city was originally known as Madison Station and grew up in the 1850s around a stop of the Memphis & Charleston Railroad. Madison was the site of a battle in the Civil War on March 16, 1864, when Col. Josiah Patterson's 5th Alabama Cavalry, supported by Col. James H. Stuart's cavalry battalion and a section of horse artillery, drove Col. Adam G. Gorgas's 13th Illinois Infantry Regiment from the city. Patterson's men captured the 13th Illinois Regiment's wagon train, taking 66 prisoners. They also burned Union supplies and destroyed railroad tracks before retreating. Portions of the 5th Ohio Cavalry, the 59th Indiana Infantry and the 5th Iowa Infantry were sent in pursuit from Huntsville and skirmished with Patterson's rear guard that evening at Fletcher's Ferry south of Madison.

It is both an Intellectual and Social History - comparing the thinking and social setting of the local black elite in these two states using both a biographical and thematic approach. It explores how a protest tradition among local leaders remained strong in the South beyond the end of Reconstruction – a result of the relative ‘flexibility’ in southern race relations in the 1880s.

  • 2013-Calendar.Pdf
    For the third year, I am very pleased that AT&T, along with our valuable partners, is presenting the Alabama African American History Calendar. e past two years have been a stunning success. With the help and support of our educators and the larger community, we have been able to reach thousands of students with inspiring stories of some of Alabama’s best known, and sometimes unknown, heroes. And for the third year, the Alabama Department of Education will present a comprehensive curriculum for use in schools across Alabama. I feel that this is one of the most important parts of this project: leveraging the incredible teachers in the classroom to make sure we are reaching students in a meaningful way. And of course the fact that we are making it available on the internet using modern communications technology is important as well. Not only have all the honorees featured in this year's calendar made a mark on the history of our state and our nation, they also serve as role models for children of all races. e organizing committee deserves tremendous credit choosing leaders from education, business, entertainment, sports, public service and community leadership. AT&T is proud to once again give back to the communities where we live and work with this remarkable eort. A special thanks also to all our partners for their contributions and commitment to this calendar.
