  • Settling Down for the Long Haul: the Black Freedom Movement
    SETTLING DOWN FOR THE LONG HAUL: THE BLACK FREEDOM MOVEMENT IN SOUTHWEST GEORGIA, 1945-1995 by JAMES BOWERS WALL (Under the Direction of Cindy Hahamovitch) ABSTRACT “Settling Down for the Long Haul” examines black freedom and white resistance movements in the Black Belt of Southwest Georgia over the course of several decades. The study centers on Albany, one of the most important yet under-examined battlegrounds of the modern African American civil rights movement. By investigating the prolonged and varied campaigns for racial equality before and after the brief involvement of Martin Luther King, Jr., the project sheds new light on how grassroots movements are formed–and persist–after their supposed “climax” has passed. INDEX WORDS: Civil Rights Movement, African American, Southwest Georgia, Albany, Albany Movement, Long Civil Rights Movement, War on Poverty, Agricultural Cooperatives, Disaster Relief, Flint River Flood, Labor History, Community Studies SETTLING DOWN FOR THE LONG HAUL: THE BLACK FREEDOM MOVEMENT IN SOUTHWEST GEORGIA, 1945-1995 by JAMES BOWERS WALL B.A., University of North Texas, 2008 M.A., University of Houston, 2011 A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The University of Georgia in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY ATHENS, GEORGIA 2018 © 2018 James Bowers Wall All Rights Reserved SETTLING DOWN FOR THE LONG HAUL: THE BLACK FREEDOM MOVEMENT IN SOUTHWEST GEORGIA, 1945-1995 by JAMES BOWERS WALL Major Professor: Cindy Hahamovitch Committee: James C.

First, they gathered materials. Second, they created records of the materials that were so gathered. As a part of this process, they developed schemes for organizing information so that it could be retrieved. Third, they physically arranged and preserved the materials. Fourth, they distributed the materials to those who needed them. Robert C. Berring1 Librarians excel at systemization. We are masters of organizing information in ways that enable all users—from the layperson to faculty researchers to future patrons of whom we cannot conceive—to find what they are looking for.
