  • Breaking Barriers: Celebrating Diversity
    Breaking the Barriers: An Exhibition in Courage Introduction It is important that children learn the importance of unity and diversity in our society and, more importantly, learn to embrace and appreciate both our cultural differences and similarities. This packet will provide teachers with an outline and resources to develop pre and post‐visit activities for the Breaking the Barriers exhibition, and lesson plans that focus on diversity, African American history, overcoming obstacles, prejudice, discrimination and race. Use the information presented to spark lessons and activities for students in 3rd through 6th grade. The key themes of this curriculum guide are: diversity, unity, multiculturalism, personal achievement and individuality. Teacher Background The classroom provides a safe environment to discuss such sensitive topics as racism, as does the exhibition. Historical exhibits place the controversies of our past into the proper context, and in doing so, act as an ideal place for a forum, an open place for social dialogue and discourse of ideas that are often difficult to discuss. Similar to the classroom, the Breaking the Barriers exhibition has the opportunity to educate the public, as well as the opportunity to house and foster discussion surrounding some of these sensitive issues (such as the role race plays in American history). As Horton states in her essay regarding the portrayal of African American history; “As one who believes in the power of education, I argue from the premise that knowledge will facilitate understanding and tolerance…if we are to have meaningful conversations on race in contemporary society, we must do so within the context of history.” (Horton, 2006: 54).

  • Movement Matters: American Antiapartheid Activism and the Rise of Multicultural Politics
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: MOVEMENT MATTERS: AMERICAN ANTIAPARTHEID ACTIVISM AND THE RISE OF MULTICULTURAL POLITICS. David L. Hostetter, Doctor of Philosophy, 2004 Dissertation Directed by Professor James B. Gilbert, Department of History. American organizations that opposed apartheid in South Africa extended their opposition to racial discrimination in the US into world politics. More than three decades of organizing preceded the legislative showdown of 1986 when Congress overrode President Ronald Reagan’s veto to enact economic sanctions against the apartheid regime. Drawing on the tactics and moral authority of the civil rights movement, the antiapartheid movement mobilized public opinion with familiar political symbols while increasing African-American influence in the formulation of US foreign policy. Three conflicts in particular shaped American antiapartheid activism: the debate between those holding an integrationist vision of the civil rights movement versus the advocates of a Pan-Africanist view as expressed in the Black Power movement; the tension between the antiracist credibility American leaders sought to project to the world and the anticommunist thrust of American foreign policy which led to a tacit alliance with South Africa; and the dispute over whether nonviolence or armed liberation provided the best strategy for ending apartheid. Three antiapartheid organizations that debated and dealt with these conflicts were the American Committee on Africa (ACOA), the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC), and TransAfrica. Each group worked against apartheid for more than a decade, combined direct action with other tactics, and included antiapartheid activism in larger efforts concerning Africa and US foreign policy. The efforts of these organizations provide a window through which to examine the conflicts that marked the antiapartheid struggle.

  • Xerox University Microfilms
    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)", If it was possible to obtain the missing pagefs) or section, they are spliced into die film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
