    Africana Islamic Studies THE AFRICANA EXPERIENCE AND CRITICAL LEADERSHIP STUDIES Series Editors: Abul Pitre, PhD North Carolina A&T State University Comfort Okpala, PhD North Carolina A&T State University Through interdisciplinary scholarship, this book series explores the experi- ences of people of African descent in the United States and abroad. This series covers a wide range of areas that include but are not limited to the following: history, political science, education, science, health care, sociol- ogy, cultural studies, religious studies, psychology, hip-hop, anthropology, literature, and leadership studies. With the addition of leadership studies, this series breaks new ground, as there is a dearth of scholarship in leadership studies as it relates to the Africana experience. The critical leadership studies component of this series allows for interdisciplinary, critical leadership dis- course in the Africana experience, offering scholars an outlet to produce new scholarship that is engaging, innovative, and transformative. Scholars across disciplines are invited to submit their manuscripts for review in this timely series, which seeks to provide cutting edge knowledge that can address the societal challenges facing Africana communities.

THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN EMIGRATION MOVEMENT IN GEORGIA DURING RECONSTRUCTION by FALECHIONDRO KARCHEIK SIMS-ALVARADO Under the Direction of Hugh Hudson ABSTRACT This dissertation is a narrative history about nearly 800 newly freed black Georgians who sought freedom beyond the borders of the Unites States by emigrating to Liberia during the years of 1866 and 1868. This work fulfills three overarching goals. First, I demonstrate that during the wake of Reconstruction, newly freed persons’ interest in returning to Africa did not die with the Civil War. Second, I identify and analyze the motivations of blacks seeking autonomy in Africa. Third, I tell the stories and challenges of those black Georgians who chose emigration as the means to civil and political freedom in the face of white opposition. In understanding the motives of black Georgians who emigrated to Liberia, I analyze correspondence from black and white Georgians and the white leaders of the American Colonization Society and letters from Liberia settlers to black friends and families in the Unites States.

It begins in 1783 during the last days of British rule and ends with the first generation of news websites. Old yellowed newspapers, rolls of microfilm, and archived web pages not only preserve stories about the history of Florida and the world, but they also give us insight into the people who have worked for the state’s newspapers. This chronology only scratches the surface of a very long and complex story, but hopefully it will serve as a useful reference tool for researchers and journalism historians.

  • Chicago's New Negroes: Consumer Culture and Intellectual Life Reconsidered
    New Voices Conference Chicago's New Negroes: Consumer Culture and Intellectual Life Reconsidered Bavarian L. Baldwin "Chicago Has No Intelligentsia"? The term "New Negro" in American history and culture has become a conventional way of referring to the literary and visual artists and intellectuals of the Harlem Renaissance. According to cultural critic Alain Locke, the New Negro represented a new generation of masses coming out of the Jim Crow South, "with a new psychology." In direct response to "Negro problem" studies within the emerging social sciences, the New Negro no longer wanted to be seen as a "formula ... to be argued about, condemned, or defended." Locke's 1925 edited anthology, The New Negro: Voices of the Harlem Renaissance, upheld arts and letters as the medium through which a New Negro personality and culture would emerge to counter damaging stereotypes and cultivate relationships between the "enlightened" segments of the races. Ideally, locating the Black "folk" content of spiritual hymns, folktales, dialect, etc. within "civilized" European forms of literacy, composition and verse would uplift Black culture and create a new interracial American cultural modernism. Moreover, Black critics argued that this new "primitive" and "virile" African American aesthetic would challenge the standards of "high" art and culture, while providing a balm from the "soulless" materialism of the industrial age and the "chaos" of urban, working-class, "low" culture.1 0026-3079/2003/4401-12152.50/0 American Studies, 44:1-2 (Spring/Summer 2003):

  • Florida and Puerto Rico Digital Newspaper Project ABSTRACT
    Florida and Puerto Rico Digital Newspaper Project ABSTRACT The University of Florida (UF) in partnership with the University of Puerto Rico (UPR) requests $343,850 (with $106,984 in combined contributed cost share from both institutions) to select, digitize, and make available to the Library of Congress 100,000 newspaper pages through the National Digital Newspaper Project (NDNP). Approximately half of the pages will come from historic Florida papers (1836‐1922) and the remaining half from newspapers published in Puerto Rico (1836‐1922). The project builds on previous NEH/NDNP newspaper digitization grant awards received by the George A. Smathers Libraries at UF and NEH funding for microfilming Puerto Rico newspapers received by UPR‐Rio Piedras Campus (UPR‐RP). The long history (since 1930) of the connection between the Latin American Collection at Smathers Libraries and the Caribbean makes possible the cooperation between UF and the UPR‐RP in this project. Previous successful cooperative work performed by UF and UPR with government documents projects, the Digital Library of the Caribbean (dLOC), and most recently the digitization of the newspaper El Mundo (issues from 1928, 1938, and 1939) provides a sound foundation for this proposed expanded project. Although Puerto Rico newspapers are preserved on master microfilm, it should be noted that the vast majority of historical newspaper microfilming in Florida was performed by UF beginning in the 1940s. UF has the largest and most complete set of newspaper microfilm in the state. Newspapers chosen for digitization will be selected by Advisory Board members, consisting of librarians, history scholars, and journalists from both Puerto Rico and Florida.

  • Segregation and Environmental Policies in Miami from the New Deal to The
    Greenlining: Segregation and Environmental Policies in Miami from the New Deal to the Climate Crisis Rosalind Donald 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 2020 © 2020 Rosalind Donald All Rights Reserved Abstract Greenlining: Segregation and Environmental Policies in Miami from the New Deal to the Climate Crisis Rosalind Donald What do people talk about when they talk about climate change? This dissertation sets out to answer this question by focusing on local understandings of climate change and the policy priorities that result from them in Miami. Through a historical study that spans from the 1920s to today and 88 hourlong interviews, I demonstrate that climate change is a historically contingent, contested, and localized concept defined by power relationships. Through a historical investigation of the narratives that connect environmental policies with segregation and efforts to displace Miami’s Black residents over more than 80 years, I show how historic understandings of race and the environment inform debates about what climate change means and what to do about it today. This investigation shows how Miami’s current response to climate change has been shaped by its history as a colonial city built on the maximization of land value and exclusionary planning and policies. I find that dominant understandings of climate change in Miami have been rooted in concern for the effects of sea level rise on property prices, directing policy money toward shoreline areas while continuing to encourage a building boom that is accelerating gentrification.
