A'irginia is one of the richest fields for historical research; the Negro question is one of the most pressing of our day; the re- ligious is the most neglected phase of the great Negro problem. It could not seem strange therefore that this study should be un- dertaken in the face of such a challenge. It is a fact, not without significance, that of the four disserta- tions issued from the School of History at the University of Vir- ginia, two have had as their subject, the Negro. To the influence of Professor R. H. Dabney, we ascribe this interest. Dr. J. P. McConnell's dissertation, "Negroes and Their Treatment in Vir- ginia from 1865 to 1867," U. Va. 1905, is an intensive study of a strategic period in the life of the Negro, and embraces legal, political, social and religious considerations. This present dis- sertation, in contradistinction to his, is an intensive study of one phase of the Negro's life in Virginia—the religious—from the date of the landing in America up to the present.

  • Agency, Work and the Great Migration in Houston, 1900-1941
    THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY “Beautiful People” Community Agency, Work, and The Great Migration Phenomenon in Houston, Texas, 1900-1941 Bernadette Pruitt 6/5/2008 The following essay outlines African American self help in the first half of the twentieth century. Specifically, it highlights two well‐known self‐help strategies utilized by internal migrants who moved to Houston, Texas, between the years 1900 and 1941. Motivated by the city’s numerous socioeconomic determinants, African American newcomers from eastern Texas and Louisiana uprooted to Houston for three fundamental reasons: to better provide for their families; to become beneficiaries of individual and collective civil liberties, thereby spurring racial advancement; and to regularly visit loved ones back in the nearby countryside. They not only found decent‐paying jobs, better schools, spirit‐filled congregations and numerous social clubs; in doing so, newcomers showed their gratitude by helping others, even when unable to adequately do so. Motivated by cultural tradition, familial/community obligation, and political climate, internal migrants provided for both their communities of origin in the surrounding hinterland and recent places of settlement in Houston. Migrants and established residents—whose parents moved to the city as slaves right before or immediately following the Civil War as freed people—alike, regardless of class, ethnicity, hue, and political affiliation, invested in the welfare of others, through charitable means and relationship building, and in doing so, helped formulate two well‐known self‐help strategies. From the days of slavery to the end of World War I, African Americans utilized accommodation as an effective political posture; then from the end of World War I to the end of World War II, Blacks adopted the “New Negro” philosophy of the interwar era.

Former slaves bought the former Wyalucing plantation house in Marshall with the assistance of the Baptist Home Mission Society. In the late 19th and early 20th century, the school primarily provided grammar school education for black children and adults, but offered high school and college courses as well. The college and its teachers often faced the threat of terrorism from white racists in its early years. Yet the Bishop community persevered and by 1925, it offered a two-year training program for ministers. Soon, it offered graduate courses. The school relocated to Dallas in 1961. Chronically battling for adequate funds and fighting off challenges to its accreditation, Bishop College nevertheless could claim a rich intellectual tradition that promoted the values first inculcated in slave times. Numerous prestigious students and first-rate intellectuals attending Bishop included Dr.

Not surprisingly, they judged education to be one of the best vehicles for facilitating that process. The record of this state-wide struggle has been partially recorded in such state studies as Frederick Eby, The Development of Education in Texas (192 5), and E. C. Evans, The Story of Texas Schools (1955). Regrettably, these works focused upon the problems surrounding primary and secondary education, while skirting or ignoring the issues and situations affecting higher education. To date, there have been only tw'o studies of black college education in Texas: The Development and Present Status of Negro Education in East Texas (193 4) by William R. Davis, and T. S. Montgomery, The Senior Colleges of Negroes in Texas (1944). Davis, in his regional study of black education, devoted a single chapter to the founding and development of colleges for blacks. While the white educator produced a pioneering work, its usefulness is diminished because it omitted Paul Quinn College, Tillotson College, Guadalupe College/ ii } 111 Samuel Huston College, and St. Philip's College which were located outside East Texas.

In ** the year 1912 there was issued a Statistical Catalogue of the Stu- dents of the Collegiate and Tlieolo~icalBepartme& of Lincoln I University. Of this catalogue the present publication, with the name changed to Biographical Catal,ogue, is a second edition, re- vised and corrected so far as possible to date. I Several new features should be noticed. The students are ar- ranged not alphabetically (escept in the general index at the back), nor by year of matriculation, but in their proper classes, I although in some eases, especially with the first few classes, it has , 1 been impossible, owing to lack of records, to make an accurate classification. The classes have been divided into two parts, those who completed the course and received a degree, and those who did not. In the case of the latter the letter b is printed after their names in the general index at the back. A compact system of 1 abbreviations has been adopted which it is thou& will be self- 1 explanatory. The biographical notes are printed once with each name, viz., where it is mentioned in the depaytment, college or theological seminary, first attended.

In pursuing a thesis topic, I was interested in adding to the historical knowledge of my com- munity. For this reason, when my friend and fellow Seguinite Ann Malone suggested that a comprehensive study of Guadalupe College would be a worthwhile project, my curiosity was imme- diately aroused. The ruined buildings and deserted campus of the old school had fascinated the youth of my generation. Isolated from black history by the wall of segregation, we had viewed the defunct college as somewhat of a mystery. Like most area citizens, I possessed a little knowledge about the institution, but I had no understanding of its true significance. The search for a factual history of Guadalupe College proved to be a challenging and rewarding endeavor.

Weaver To my mother, Dianne Weaver, without her none of this would be possible. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to acknowledge my dissertation Chair and Co-Chair Dr. David Hedge and Dr. Sharon Austin. I would also like to acknowledge my committee members Dr. Lynn Leverty, Dr. Beth Rosenson, and Dr. Paul Ortiz. This also would not be possible if it wasn’t for the support of the University of Florida’s Office of Graduate Minority Programs administered by Dean Henry Frierson, Dr. Tyisha Hathorn, Earl Wade, and Sarah McLemore. I must also acknowledge Florida A&M University, for this illustrious institution is the inspiration of this study, the provider of my doctoral fellowship, and the institution that helped mold me into the man that I am today. FAMU taught me how to do more with less, that excuses are tools of the incompetent, and the meaning of “Excellence with Caring.” I would also be remised if I did not acknowledge the greatest fraternity ever organized, The Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Incorporated. Through my association with this fraternity, I was able cultivate life long friendships with brothers who inspired me to be great. These brothers included but are not limited to: Tallie Brinson, Dr. Terrell Coring, Robert Little, Malachi Green, Reynaldo Russell, Riccardo Jean, Gregory Boler, Quinton Stroud, Quinton Strother, Derrick Heck, Zeddrick Barber, Omari Crawford, Brian Freeman, Jared Fields, Bradford Moye, Royle King, and Iman Sandifer.
