  • 1 After Slavery & Reconstruction: the Black Struggle in the U.S. for Freedom, Equality, and Self-Realization* —A Bibliogr
    After Slavery & Reconstruction: The Black Struggle in the U.S. for Freedom, Equality, and Self-Realization* —A Bibliography Patrick S. O’Donnell (2020) Jacob Lawrence, Library, 1966 Apologia— Several exceptions notwithstanding (e.g., some titles treating the Reconstruction Era), this bibliography begins, roughly, with the twentieth century. I have not attempted to comprehensively cover works of nonfiction or the arts generally but, once more, I have made— and this time, a fair number of—exceptions by way of providing a taste of the requisite material. So, apart from the constraints of most of my other bibliographies: books, in English, these particular constraints are intended to keep the bibliography to a fairly modest length (around one hundred pages). This compilation is far from exhaustive, although it endeavors to be representative of the available literature, whatever the influence of my idiosyncratic beliefs and 1 preferences. I trust the diligent researcher will find titles on particular topics or subject areas by browsing carefully through the list. I welcome notice of titles by way of remedying any deficiencies. Finally, I have a separate bibliography on slavery, although its scope is well beyond U.S. history. * Or, if you prefer, “self-fulfillment and human flourishing (eudaimonia).” I’m not here interested in the question of philosophical and psychological differences between these concepts (i.e., self- realization and eudaimonia) and the existing and possible conceptions thereof, but more simply and broadly in their indispensable significance in reference to human nature and the pivotal metaphysical and moral purposes they serve in our critical and evaluative exercises (e.g., and after Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum, in employing criteria derived from the notion of ‘human capabilities and functionings’) as part of our individual and collective historical quest for “the Good.” However, I might note that all of these concepts assume a capacity for self- determination.

  • Forrest's Escort, January, 2012
    Forrest’s Escort The Official Newsletter of the Tennessee Division Sons of Confederate Veterans January 2012 (Nashville, TN) - The Save Our Flags program, an initiative of the Tennessee Division Sons of Confederate Veterans, today announced its next conservation project as the Battle Flag of the 14th Tennessee which was carried and captured at Gettysburg. The men of this unit were primarily from Montgomery, Robertson, and Stewart counties in northern Middle Tennessee; their flag is currently owned by the citizens of Tennessee and resides in the Tennessee State Museum, where it has been designated as a priority for conservation. Across the nation, as Americans commemorate the 150th anniversary of the American Civil War, attention is being drawn to the battlefields, relics, and the memories of the men who fought. This flag of the 14th Tennes- see Infantry was used for about a year before it was captured during Pickett’s Charge, and then forwarded away from the battlefield (and the elements). Made from wool bunting, a tough fabric which resisted water and the elements much better than cotton and silk, the focus on this flag is toward conservation, not restoration. Tennessee State Museum textile experts have given us an estimate for conservation at $12,500. Senator Douglas Henry of Nashville, a longtime supporter of the State Museum, was pleased to make the first contribution to the project. James Turner, chairman of the Save Our Flags program, stated, “We appreciate Senator Henry stepping forward as he so often has, and we are optimistic that the entire amount can be raised by the end of 2012, making it possible for the flag to be con- served by the end of the sesquicentennial obser- vance in 2015.” The Tennessee Division SCV has donated an esti- mated $50,000 to the Tennessee State Museum over the past few years specifically to conserve these historic banners, and now you can also help.
