  • Freaknik and the Civil Rights Legacy of Atlanta by Peter William Stockus
    Rethinking African American Protest: Freaknik and the Civil Rights Legacy of Atlanta by Peter William Stockus A thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Auburn, Alabama December 8, 2012 Keywords: Atlanta, Georgia, Civil Rights, Hip-Hop, Protest, Social Copyright 2012 by Peter William Stockus Approved by David Carter, Chair, Associate Professor of History Aaron Shapiro, Assistant Professor of History Charles Israel, Associate Professor of History Abstract During the late 1980s and early 90s, Atlanta played host to the spring break festival Freaknik. A gathering of Historically Black College and University students and African American youth, Freaknik came to challenge the racial dynamics of a city that billed itself as “too busy to hate.” As black revelers cruised the streets, the congregation of up to 250,000 youth created major logistical problems for the city and forced the residents of the predominantly white neighborhoods of Piedmont Park and Midtown to examine the racial dynamics of Atlanta. These contested neighborhoods became hotbeds of protest, with many white residents viewing the actions of the fete participants as damaging to the neighborhoods. While many within Atlanta’s white community opposed the party, leaders of the black community condemned the actions of African American Mayor Bill Campbell and the white populace for restricting Freaknik, suggesting the actions of Freaknik opponents as racist and unnecessary. Utilizing Atlanta’s Civil Rights legacy, Freaknik participants not only confronted contested spaces of community within Atlanta, but also disputed the ownership of the Civil Rights movement.

    OUT OF THE NIGHT THAT COVERS ME: HOW MEMBERSHIP IN A BLACK GREEK LETTER ORGANIZATION SHAPES THE BLACK STUDENT EXPERIENCE by KELBY J. LAMAR KARRI HOLLEY, COMMITTEE CHAIR CLAIRE MAJOR NATHANIEL BRAY STEVE D. MOBLEY JR. LITSA RIVERS A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Education in the Department of Educational Leadership, Policy, and Technology Studies in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2021 Copyright Kelby J. Lamar 2021 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to examine how membership in a historically Black Greek letter organization (BGLO) shapes the Black student experience at a predominantly White commuter institution. Students who identify as Black Americans with a membership in a BGLO for at least one year and were full-time undergraduate students at such institutions were the participants for this study. The study included 13 participants who were chosen using snowball sampling. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews and a digital recording device. Data were analyzed using three-cycle coding and NVivo software to identify specific codes and themes in the data. Data collected showed that participants experienced a sense of belonging and connection to campus through membership in their BGLO. This study highlighted the need for more scholarship to differentiate between the BGLO experience and the traditionally White GLO experience at predominantly White institutions. ii DEDICATION This dissertation is dedicated first and foremost to my parents, Herman and Veronica Lamar. They have always believed in me and encouraged and supported my dreams since I was a child.
