Book Synopsis Damned Souls in a Tobacco Colony by : Edward L. Bond
Download or read book Damned Souls in a Tobacco Colony written by Edward L. Bond and published by Mercer University Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this study, historian Edward L. Bond provides an inside view of religion in America's first colony. Focusing or religion as various expressions of individual and corporate relationship with the divine, the author gives the reader a picture of religion and society in colonial Virginia. In the process, he clarifies our understandings of Virginia's established Anglican Church, discusses the theology and devotional practices of the colonists, and explains the role of religion in colonial polity. Such an approach allows the reader to see both the conservative and progressive elements in the way the earliest colonists in Virginia defined their individual and corporate relationship with God." "Throughout Bond's analysis, he shows that by the end of the seventeenth century Virginians, though viewing themselves as Anglicans, nonetheless gradually discovered that they were defending an ecclesiastical institution much different from the one they left behind in England."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Synopsis The Invention of the White Race, Volume 2 by : Theodore W. Allen
Download or read book The Invention of the White Race, Volume 2 written by Theodore W. Allen and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in 1963, Martin Luther King outlined a dream of an America where people would not be judged by the color of their skin. That dream has yet to be realized, but some three centuries ago it was a reality. Back then, neither social practice nor law recognized any special privileges in connection with being white. But by the early decades of the eighteenth century, that had all changed. Racial oppression became the norm in the plantation colonies, and African Americans suffered under its yoke for more than two hundred years. In Volume II of The Invention of the White Race, Theodore Allen explores the transformation that turned African bond-laborers into slaves and segregated them from their fellow proletarians of European origin. In response to labor unrest, where solidarities were not determined by skin color, the plantation bourgeoisie sought to construct a buffer of poor whites, whose new racial identity would protect them from the enslavement visited upon African Americans. This was the invention of the white race, an act of cruel ingenuity that haunts America to this day.Allen’s acclaimed study has become indispensable in debates on the origins of racial oppression in America. In this updated edition, scholar Jeffrey B. Perry provides a new introduction, a select bibliography and a study guide.

Book Synopsis The Invention of the White Race by : Theodore W. Allen
Download or read book The Invention of the White Race written by Theodore W. Allen and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2022-01-11 with total page 801 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive, tour-de-force analysis of the birth of slavery, racism, and white supremacy in the American South—and how it shaped our modern world. “A must-read for all social justice activists, teachers, and scholars.” —Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz, author of An Indigenous Peoples’ History of the United States Long heralded as a classic study of the origin of white privilege from the activist who first coined the term, Theodore W. Allen’s work remains an indispensable resource for making sense of our conflicted present, a reference point for everyone from Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz and Nell Irvin Painter to Reni-Eddo Lodge and Aníbal Quijano. When the first Africans arrived in Virginia in 1619, there were no “white” people there. Nor, according to colonial records, would there be for another sixty years. In this seminal work, available for the first time here in a single volume, Allen tells how America’s ruling classes created the category of the “white race” as a means of social control. Since that early invention, white privileges have enforced the myth of racial superiority, a fact central to maintaining rulingclass domination over ordinary working people of all colors throughout the history of the Atlantic world. Spanning centuries and nations, Allen’s analysis takes us from the plantations of Northern Ireland and the mines of Peru to the sugar fields of Brazil and colonies of Chesapeake Bay, Virginia. His account records lives of hardscrabble immigrant survival, Faustian bargains with white supremacy, the tragedy of human bondage, and the stubborn, unbreakable resistance to the global color line.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "With all its tidbits of historical facts, Gloria Elam's story of her ancestors would be of interest to people even outside her family. She paints a picture of characters reaching hundreds of years back, one that rolls nicely and is fun to read. You very quickly get involved with the tale." Carolea Hassard, Texas weekly newspaper journalist "In her book, Gloria Peoples Elam has traced her family from the ancient border area between Scotland and England to the present time. The coverage of the historical events in this book is impressive and complete. From 1649 and the first ancestry on the James River to the American Revolution, the Battle for Texas Independence, the Civil War, World War I, to World War II, Peoples ancestors have been involved. They have been part of the history of Parker County Texas, where she resides; and also throughout Texas and the State of Oklahoma. Down through the years the caretakers of our history have been invaluable. Gloria has been a very effective caretaker of her family history and much, much more." Laurie Moseley III, Curator, Springtown Legends Museum, Texas State Archaeological, Society Member and Past President, Retired Texas Educator As you read the pages of this wonderful book you will quickly see Gloria's passion for history as she unfolds the history of her family in the settling of these United States. Her ancestry will come alive before you and you will be gently reminded that in some way we are all a part of this Great American Heritage. Pastor Doug Harris, Agnes Baptist Church, Springtown Chamber of Commerce President 2011-2012 It was fascinating to read this genealogical history of Gloria's family that she so cleverly has woven through different eras of America's history. She managed to account for her family ancestors and established a legacy by placing them in the important events taking place in America from the 1600's to the late 1800's.
