It includes older titles which have long since ceased publication as well is those still being published. The scoPe of the guide is broad, including literary, political, and historical journals as well as general newspapers of the black community, and represents all phases of black thought and action:from the Abolitionists of the nine- teenth century to the ciVil rights and black-nationalist movements of the 1960's and 1970's. Prepared in response to the requests of faculty and students who found that effectively utilizing our dispersed, though rich, resources was difficult, we hope that this guide will facilitate use of our collections by scholars locally as well as nationally. It is, we believe, a guide to one of the strongest collections in this field. The arrangement of the main listing is.alphabetical. An explanation of the standard entry format follows: 2 3 1Western Cyclone. Nicodemus, Kansas, May 13, 1886-Dec. 1 , 1887// 4(Black newspaper) 5 Hist 6May 13, 1886-Dec. 16, 1887. -1.

Holdings of the title in the library.Brackets ([]) around the dates indicate the holdings are of scattered dates or incomplete. After the main alphabetical listing is a geographic index which organize all titles by place of publication. Following this geographic index is a selective subject index. The subject index does not include all titles in the compilation but should be of use to persons seeking examples of black publications .,:fn;Ilbjects such as education and Pan-Africanism. 1. This guide could not have been compiled without the invaluable assistance of other librarians who shared with us information on holdings in their collections: Louise Henning (Kohler Art Library), Marilyn Hicks (Business School Library), Miriam Allman (Center for HealthSciences Library), Dotti Delfino (College Library), Heidi Klasna (U.

  • Postwar Urban Redevelopment and North Dallas Freedman's Town
    Roads to Destruction: Postwar Urban Redevelopment and North Dallas Freedman’s Town by Cynthia Lewis Like most American cities following World War II, Dallas entered a period of economic prosperity, and city leaders, like their counterparts throughout the nation, sought to maximize that prosperity through various urban renewal initiatives.1 Black urban communities across the country, branded as blighted areas, fell victim to the onslaught of postwar urban redevelopment as city leaders initiated massive renewal projects aimed at both bolstering the appeal and accessibility of the urban center and clearing out large sections of urban black neighborhoods. Between the years 1943 and 1983, Dallas city officials directed a series of massive redevelopment projects that decimated each of the city’s black communities, displacing thousands and leaving these communities in a state of disarray.2 This paper, which focuses on the historically black Dallas community of North Dallas, argues that residential segregation, which forced the growth and evolution of North Dallas, ultimately led to the development of slum conditions that made North Dallas a target for postwar slum clearance projects which only served to exacerbate blight within the community. Founded in 1869 by former slaves, North Dallas, formerly known as Freedman’s Town, is one of the oldest black neighborhoods in Dallas.3 Located just northeast of downtown and bounded by four cemeteries to the north and white-owned homes to the south, east, and west, the area became the largest and most densely populated black settlement in the city. Residential segregation played a pivotal role in the establishment and evolution of North Dallas, as it did with most black urban communities across the country.4 Racial segregation in Dallas, with its roots in antebellum, began to take 1 For an in-depth analysis of the United States’ postwar economy, see Postwar Urban America: Demography, Economics, and Social Policies by John F.

Wood iii Copyright © 2019 Kelly Clayton iv ABSTRACT FROM MIDWAY TO MAINSTAGE: DALLAS STRIPTEASE 1946-1960 Kelly Clayton, MA Texas A&M University-Commerce, 2019 Advisor: Jessica Brannon-Wranosky PhD The entertainment landscape of post-World War II Dallas, Texas included striptease in different types of venues. Travelling and local striptease acts performed at the city’s annual fair and in several nightclubs in the city. In the late 1940s, the fair featured striptease as the headlining act, and one of the city’s newspapers, the Dallas Morning News, described the dancers as the most popular attraction of the largest fair in the United States. Further, the newspaper reporting congratulated the men who ran the fair for providing Texans with these popular entertainment options. The dancers who performed at the fair also showcased their talents at area nightclubs to mixed gender audiences. Dallas welcomed striptease as an acceptable form of entertainment. However, in the early 1950s, the tone and tenor of the striptease coverage changed. The State Fair of Texas executives decried striptease as “soiled” and low-class. Dancers performed in nightclubs, but the newspaper began to report on one particular entertainer, Candy Barr, and her many tangles with law enforcement.

  • Undermining Black Enterprise with Land Use Rules
    CLOWNEY.DOC 7/10/2009 2:12 PM INVISIBLE BUSINESSMAN: UNDERMINING BLACK ENTERPRISE WITH LAND USE RULES Stephen Clowney* Rates of self-employment in African-American neighborhoods remain feeble. Although the reasons behind the failure of black busi- nesses are complex, zoning regulations play a largely unexamined role in constraining the development of African-American enterpris- es. Land use fees, municipal zoning board decisions, and the general insistence on separating residential from commercial uses all impress unique and disproportionate harms on African-American merchants, making it difficult to find affordable business space in suitable loca- tions. Moreover, current attempts to reorganize the land use system are inadequate to solve the problems facing black businesspeople. A complete rolling back of zoning laws is impractical and unnecessary, while attempts to promote street vending or home-based business run aground on the objections of local homeowners. Instead of pursuing these failed strategies, municipal governments should create programs that transfer abandoned buildings to fledgling merchants of the inner city. This new land use policy could spark a revival of urban entre- preneurship and help restore crumbling neighborhoods to their for- mer glory. Unlike other proposals to reform zoning laws, transfer- ring vacant government-owned land unites the interests of businesspeople, homeowners, and local governments. Inner-city merchants receive the space they need to foster new business ideas. Local homeowners rid themselves of the scourge of empty buildings. Finally, municipalities generate new revenue by returning unproduc- tive buildings to the tax rolls. INTRODUCTION At the start of the twenty-first century, land use reform is the most underexamined method of restoring the economic vitality of central ci- ∗ Assistant Professor of Law, University of Kentucky.

    THE IMAGE OF AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMEN AS PRESENTED BY AMERICAN MASS MEDIA AND POPULAR CULTURE: INTERPRETATIONS BY URBAN AFRICAN AMERICAN ADOLESCENT FEMALES REGARDING THEIR LIFE CHANCES, LIFE CHOICES, AND SELF-ESTEEM By Pamela Rose Smith A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Sociology - Doctor of Philosophy 2014 ABSTRACT THE IMAGE OF AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMEN AS PRESENTED BY AMERICAN MASS MEDIA AND POPULAR CULTURE: INTERPRETATIONS BY URBAN AFRICAN AMERICAN ADOLESCENT FEMALES REGARDING THEIR LIFE CHANCES, LIFE CHOICES, AND SELF-ESTEEM By Pamela Rose Smith The aim of this study was to investigate the image of African American women in popular culture and gain an understanding of how those images are interpreted by urban African American adolescent girls (N=40) between the ages of 13-19 years old. Black magazine covers and hip-hop/rap music videos that display images of African American women were viewed by the participants. Questions were asked of the girls that explored whether popular culture media images of African American women affect the interpretation of their self-esteem, choices they make, and future chances in life. Specifically, I sought to understand: 1) Do images of African American women shown in popular culture influence the interpretation of life chances and life choices of urban African American adolescent girls, and if so, how?; and 2) Whether portrayals of African American women in popular culture influence the interpretation of the self-esteem of urban African American adolescent girls. A mixed method research process was used to gather data that represents the participants’ perspectives.
