    ATEOTT 41 Transcript EPISODE 41 [INTRODUCTION] [00:00:03] TP: Basically, when people said the nation is on – they’re thinking more of Malcolm and not Elijah Muhammad. People in the nation are becoming jealous against Malcolm, especially people who are members of Elijah Muhammad's family. They're feeling that Malcolm may want to try and take over the nation and step into their hierarchy. That becomes problematic. Also, how much of this is also infiltrated by the FBI? We already have the document. They were surveilling them. We’re surveilling Elijah Muhammad, all of his households. They were following Malcolm during this time when he's organized in the Hartford mosque, they're following him. Whenever he held a meeting, they're walking up to people who go to the meetings and ask them what was the inside, underneath. This is all going on at the same time. It's creating this environment of paranoia and distrust. You don't know who to trust. Why are you still building up a nation? [00:01:05] LW: Hey, there. It's Light Watkins, your host of At the End of the Tunnel. This week, you're in for a very special treat. A few months ago, episode 21 to be precise, I ran a little experiment, where I brought onto the podcast a Yale professor and author, Dr. David Blight to talk to us about the life of Frederick Douglass, which was based on his Pulitzer Prize winning biography called Profit of Freedom. I've been eagerly anticipating the next opportunity to share the life story of historical figure as fascinating as Douglass.

  • “Neither Bedecked Nor Bebosomed": Lucy Mason, Ella Baker and Women's Leadership and Organizing Strategies in the Struggle for Freedom
    “Neither Bedecked Nor Bebosomed": Lucy Mason, Ella Baker and Women's Leadership and Organizing Strategies in the Struggle for Freedom Susan Glisson Assistant Professor in Southern Studies and Director of the Institute on Racial Reconciliation University of Mississippi It is dangerous to remember the past only for its own sake, dangerous to deliver a message that you did not get. Wendell Berry It is not enough just to study the South unless your basis of study is to make it better. Will D. Campbell The thing that is most important is that we understand that the movement which encompasses many organizations of which SNCC was one, is still going on, was going on before SNCC, and will continue to go on in the future. And we as organization, we as individuals in those organizations must understand that, and work to make sure we do our rightful part. If a people feel that it does not have a movement, that’s very self-defeating. And we should understand that in a movement we do not have a leader but we have many leaders. That’s the way it always has been and that’s the way it will continuously be. Hollis Watkins1 Section One Edmund Morgan, in his landmark study American Slavery, American Freedom, records that in August, 1619, for the first time, a ship carrying black human cargo, most probably African indentured servants, landed in Jamestown, Virginia; their descendants would comprise the slave population in that colony. In the same month of that year, the first representative legislature met in Virginia, an embryonic form of the emerging American democratic experiment.

Burke Thesis Advisors: Monsignor Dennis Mahon, Ph. D. Dr. Albert Widman Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Masters of Arts in Strategic Communication Seton Hall University South Orange, NJ The Bob Marley Effect 2 Abstract This study explores the legacy of Robert Nesta Marley through a comparison of his influence in Jamaica and the United States. The recognition that Bob Marley received, both during his life and after his death, is comparatively different between the two countries. As iconic as Marley is, why is his message and legacy different in the United States and most of his recognition not received till after his death? The researcher explores how Marley’s message was received in the two countries and whether his audience understood his philosophy and message in the same way. Results indicate that the communication of his thoughts were heard somewhat differently in Jamaica and the United States. Finally, this study presents recommendations for future research. The Bob Marley Effect 3 Dedication This thesis is dedicated to God, who is the head of my life.
