réf. B9780807150108Paperback / softback. New. In Defying Disfranchisement R. Volney Riser documents a number of lawsuits challenging various requirements- including literacy tests poll taxes and white primaries- designed primarily to strip African American men of their right to vote in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Twelve of these cases wended their way to the U.S. Supreme Court and that body coldly ignored the systematic disfranchisement of black southerners. Nevertheless as Riser shows the attempts themselves were stunning and demonstrate that even at one of their bleakest hours African Americans sheltered and nurtured a hope that would lead to wholesale changes in the American legal and political landscape. paperback

1901réf. Alibris.0031345washington: M walter dunne 1901. intro by joel benton & biographical notes. Hard cover. Good. No dust jacket. micquet. 415 p. . Excerpt: .LETTERS TO ANONYMA Paris Thursday. --Everything about you is mysterious; and the causes inducing in others a certain line of conduct impel you always to opposite action. I am becoming accustomed to your ways and nothing any longer surprises me. Spare me I beg of you; do not put to too harsh a test the unfortunate habit I have contracted of finding good in all that you do. I was perhaps a little too frank in my last letter in speaking of my character. An old diplomatist a shrewd man of the world has often advised me "Never say any ill of yourself; your dear friends will say quite enough." Do not however take literally my self-depreciation; believe rather that my chief virtue is modesty which I carry to excess and I tremble lest it injure me in your estimation. I may at another time when inspired supply you with an exact catalogue of my qualities; for the list will be long and being to-day slightly indisposed I dare not project myself into this progression of the infinite." You cannot guess where I was on Saturday evening and in what engaged at midnight. I was on the platform of one of the towers of Notre Dame drinking orangeade and eating ices in the society of four friends and a magnificent moon with the accompaniment of a great owl flapping his wings. Paris at this hour and by moonlight is a superb spectacle resembling a city of the "Thousand and One Nights " the inhabitants of which have been enchanted during their sleep; but Parisians usually go to bed at midnight and are most stupid in so doing. Our party was a curious one four nations being represented each of us with a different way of thinking; but the bore of it was that some of us inspired by the moon and the owl thought it necessary to assume a poetic tone.
