  • Photo I: Benjamin "Pap" Singleton Source: Painter After the Kansas State Historical Society 5
    4 Benjamin "Pap" Singleton (Kansas Stale Historical Society) Photo I: Benjamin "Pap" Singleton Source: Painter after the Kansas State Historical Society 5 COLONIZING AFRICAN AMERICAN PLACES IN KANSAS 1857-1885 by Kay Ellen Weller Reason for the study Several African American colonies were established in Kansas between 1857 and 1885. Few people know much, ifanything,aboutmost of these colonies because little was recorded in the local media about them at the time. Nicodemus is the one exception. In 1998 it became a National Historic Site thus receiving much attention from the media. Because scholarly research about these colonies is so scant it is important to study them from a geographic perspective. This paper attempts to do that by answering the following questions: 1) Where were Kansas African American colonies located between 1857 and 1885?; 2) Why did African Americans want to relocate from their homes in the south to Kansas?; 3) What was the state of nativity of the Kansas African American colonist in specific colonies?; 4) Why did most Kansas African American colonies disappear? Conditions in the south and reasons to emigrate The Civil War, although a war of unification, became a war to free slaves with the Emancipation Proclamation ofJanuary 1, 1863. 1 General Robert E. Lee surrendered to General Ulysses S. Grant at the Appomattox Court House in Virginia on April 9, 1865, thus ending the war of four years. The South was left with an infrastructure in shambles and shortages of raw materials and manpower.

  • Freedom Summer
    MISSISSIPPI BURNING THE FREEDOM SUMMER OF 1964 Prepared by Glenn Oney For Teaching American History The Situation • According to the Census, 45% of Mississippi's population is Black, but in 1964 less than 5% of Blacks are registered to vote state-wide. • In the rural counties where Blacks are a majority — or even a significant minority — of the population, Black registration is virtually nil. The Situation • For example, in some of the counties where there are Freedom Summer projects (main project town shown in parenthesis): Whites Blacks County (Town) Number Eligible Number Voters Percentage Number Eligible Number Voters Percentage Coahoma (Clarksdale) 5338 4030 73% 14004 1061 8% Holmes (Tchula) 4773 3530 74% 8757 8 - Le Flore (Greenwood) 10274 7168 70% 13567 268 2% Marshall (Holly Spgs) 4342 4162 96% 7168 57 1% Panola (Batesville) 7369 5309 69% 7250 2 - Tallahatchie (Charleston) 5099 4330 85% 6438 5 - Pike (McComb) 12163 7864 65% 6936 150 - Source: 1964 MFDP report derived from court cases and Federal reports. The Situation • To maintain segregation and deny Blacks their citizenship rights — and to continue reaping the economic benefits of racial exploitation — the white power structure has turned Mississippi into a "closed society" ruled by fear from the top down. • Rather than mechanize as other Southern states have done, much of Mississippi agriculture continues to rely on cheap Black labor. • But with the rise of the Freedom Movement, the White Citizens Council is now urging plantation owners to replace Black sharecroppers and farm hands with machines. • This is a deliberate strategy to force Blacks out of the state before they can achieve any share of political power.

  • Exodusters Itinerary

  • Second Isaiah Lands in Washington, DC: Martin Luther King, Jr.’S “I Have a Dream” As Biblical Narrative and Biblical Hermeneutic
    KHRHR0735-01981532-7981Rhetoric Review,EITH Vol. 26, No. 4, Jul 2007: D. pp. 0–0 MILLER Arizona State University Rhetoric Review Second Isaiah Lands in Washington, DC: Martin Luther King, Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” as Biblical Narrative and Biblical Hermeneutic EvenSecondRhetoric Isaiah Review Lands in Washington, though DC Martin Luther King, Jr. constantly cited the Bible, no one has seri- ously examined his rhetoric as biblical hermeneutic. Here I argue that in “I Have a Dream,” King explodes closed memories of the Exodus by reconceptualizing a hermeneutic of (Second) Isaiah as he interprets African-Americans’ experience of oppression and exile in Babylon/America and their hope for a new Exodus. Draw- ing on African-American political rhetoric, King spotlights biblical writers’ dia- logue with each other and extends the arc of biblical narrative into the present. He also anticipates certain forms of liberation theology of the 1970s and beyond. “I Have a Dream” copyright 1963 the estate of Martin Luther King, Jr., copyright renewed 1991 Coretta Scott King. In our schools and universities, Martin Luther King, Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” is taught much more frequently than any other speech.1 Indeed, many English textbooks represent the entire history of oratory through this speech and no other. It is so popular that Michael Eric Dyson, a King scholar and prominent public intellectual, argued in 2002 that it deserves a moratorium for ten years. That mor- atorium, however, has not begun and will not begin, for public attention lavished on the speech will not abate either in our classrooms or on public observances during the King Holiday.
