The LP includes dramatized reenactments written and directed by Ossie Davis and is voiced by Ruby Dee Godfrey Cambridge Brock Peters and Roy Glenn. The liner text opens: "We cannot afford to let the story of Negro Americans-who they were how they lived what they did-go untold. This is a job that needs doing in all the classrooms of America."

1924ref. 217871924. Woodson Carter Godwin. The Journal of Negro History. Archive of three landmark issues published between 1924 and 1928 documenting the institutional development of African American historical scholarship during the early twentieth century. The material records Black intellectual production historical recovery and scholarly publishing through the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History founded by Carter G. Woodson and Jesse E. Moorland in 1915. These issues include Black scholarship challenging white supremacist interpretations of Reconstruction slavery labor and African diasporic history through archival research and independent academic publication. The journal served as one of the central vehicles through which African American historians established scholarly networks disseminated original research and institutionalized the study of Black history within American intellectual life. The archive provides primary-source evidence for the emergence of modern African American historiography and the scholarly movement that later gave rise to Negro History Week and Black History Month. Woodson Carter Godwin ed. The Journal of Negro History. Lancaster PA and Washington D.C.: The Association for the Study of Negro Life and History 1924 1926 and 1928. Three issues in publisher's printed wrappers comprising Vol. IX No. 3 July 1924; Vol. XI No. 3 July 1926; and Vol. XIII No. 3 July 1928. Each issue measures approximately 10 x 6.5 inches and ranges between 120 and 176 pages. 1 Vol. IX No. 3 July 1924. Devoted primarily to Alrutheus Ambush Taylor's major study "The Negro in South Carolina During the Reconstruction" examining demographic change labor transition religion education and political organization in the post-emancipation South. Written while Taylor served as the first full-time Black researcher employed by Woodson's organization the study foregrounds African American agency during Reconstruction and anticipates interpretive frameworks later expanded by W.E.B. Du Bois in Black Reconstruction. 2 Vol. XI No. 3 July 1926. Continues Taylor's Reconstruction scholarship with "The Negro in the Reconstruction of Virginia" detailing Black political participation church organization disenfranchisement campaigns and the reestablishment of white political control in Virginia after Reconstruction. The article constitutes one of the earliest extended scholarly treatments of Black Reconstruction politics in the state. 3 Vol. XIII No. 3 July 1928. Broadens the journal's scope beyond the Reconstruction South through studies including N. Andrew N. Cleven's "The First Panama Mission and the Congress of the United States" W. Sherman Savage's early survey "The Negro in the History of the Pacific Northwest" and Jean Trapp's "The Liverpool Movement for the Abolition of the English Slave Trade." The issue additionally includes Ruth A. Fisher's extensive 109-page documentary compilation "Extracts from the Records of the African Companies" reproducing archival material relating to British commercial participation in the transatlantic slave trade. These issues record the emergence of African American historical scholarship as an organized intellectual discipline during a period when Black historians faced systematic exclusion from mainstream academic institutions and publishing networks. The journal's sustained attention to Reconstruction history preceded revisionist scholarship that later transformed the field with early interpretations centered on Black political participation labor and institutional development rather than Lost Cause narratives dominant in white historiography of the era. Studies on the Pacific Northwest Panama and British antislavery movements extend the journal's diasporic approach to Black history beyond the American South. Minor edgewear and faint toning to wrappers; overall very good condition. An archive of foundational African American historical scholarship and one of the central publishing achievements of twentieth-century Black intellectual life. unknown

African American History Mohonk Conference on the Negro Question 1890 Report Documenting Post Reconstruction Policy Debates

1890ref. 196721890. Barrows Isabel C. ed. First Mohonk Conference on the Negro Question Held at Lake Mohonk Ulster County New York June 4 5 6 1890 1890 records one of the earliest organized national discussions among white reformers politicians and intellectuals addressing the status of African Americans in the decades following Reconstruction. Convened at a moment when Black political rights were being systematically dismantled across the South through disenfranchisement and violence the conference brought together predominantly white Northern and Southern participants to debate labor education and civil status. The proceedings include the intervention of Reconstruction advocate Albion W. Tourgée whose address "The Negro's View of the Race Problem" directly challenged the exclusion of Black voices and concluded with a proposed resolution that failed to gain support. Statements within the conference reflect prevailing racial barriers including the observation that in Philadelphia "a colored man may carry mortar up a ladder but he is not allowed to lay the bricks" underscoring systemic exclusion from skilled labor and economic advancement. Barrows Isabel C. ed. First Mohonk Conference on the Negro Question Held at Lake Mohonk Ulster County New York June 4 5 6 1890. Boston: Geo. H. Ellis 1890. Softcover pamphlet format 142 pages measuring approximately 24 cm. Original front cover preserved and laid in with a color facsimile wrapper supplied for protection. Text printed as conference proceedings compiling speeches discussions and resolutions delivered across the three-day meeting. Produced during the consolidation of Jim Crow policies and the retreat from Reconstruction-era protections this document provides direct evidence of how white-led reform movements framed and debated Black citizenship at the national level. The absence of substantive Black participation alongside Tourgée's protest highlights tensions between advocacy and paternalism within late nineteenth-century reform discourse. As a printed record of policy-oriented discussion the volume supports research into labor exclusion education policy and the ideological foundations of segregation-era governance.

Creases at folds; chemise moderately worn; leaves lightly dust-soiled with one small stain. APPLICATION TO CHARTER AN AFRICAN AMERICAN NON-PROFIT BUSINESS ASSOCIATION. IT WAS CREATED IN RESPONSE TO JIM CROW LAWS THAT REMAINED IN FORCE IN WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA AND ELSEWHERE. THIS SCARCE PRIMARY SOURCE MATERIAL DOCUMENTS THE NEEDS OF AFRICAN AMERICAN BUSINESS OWNERS TO UNITE IN ORDER TO SURVIVE. Our charter shows that the "Negro Licensed Beverage Association of Western Pennsylvania" NLBAWP was a group of African American hotel owners restaurant owners and tavern owners. Lingering Jim Crow laws and other societal forces made it exceptionally difficult for such businesses to succeed in the Pittsburgh area and of course elsewhere. The late 1950s and early 1960s saw the development of similar organizations in Philadelphia National Negro Licensed Beverage Association and New Orleans Negro Tavern Owners Association. Importantly this document lists the goals of the NLBAWP organization: "To foster strengthen and improve business within the Negro community." "To advance the cause of the Negro tavern and hotel owner as a whole." "To give service to members to do things for them which they cannot do for themselves or which can be done better or less expensively if done collectively." "To create and project the proper image of a tavern or hotel owner in the community." "To sponsor aid and assist any charitable or civic project approved by the members." One noteworthy incorporator listed here was Vivian Mason Lane. Lane owned four Pittsburgh taverns in the 1960s and was a community leader through at least the 1980s. She led a neighborhood Chamber of Commerce and ran unsuccessfully for County Commissioner and the State House. The 1966-67 Negro Traveler's Green Book "For Vacation Without Aggravation!" lists a grand total of eight suitable motels tourist homes and restaurants in Pittsburgh. In any event we have been unable to determine what -- if anything -- became of the Negro Licensed Beverage Association of Western Pennsylvania. Shields, Watson & Washington, Attorneys at Law unknown
