Book Synopsis Their Highest Potential by : Vanessa Siddle Walker
Download or read book Their Highest Potential written by Vanessa Siddle Walker and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2000-11-09 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: African American schools in the segregated South faced enormous obstacles in educating their students. But some of these schools succeeded in providing nurturing educational environments in spite of the injustices of segregation. Vanessa Siddle Walker tells the story of one such school in rural North Carolina, the Caswell County Training School, which operated from 1934 to 1969. She focuses especially on the importance of dedicated teachers and the principal, who believed their jobs extended well beyond the classroom, and on the community's parents, who worked hard to support the school. According to Walker, the relationship between school and community was mutually dependent. Parents sacrificed financially to meet the school's needs, and teachers and administrators put in extra time for professional development, specialized student assistance, and home visits. The result was a school that placed the needs of African American students at the center of its mission, which was in turn shared by the community. Walker concludes that the experience of CCTS captures a segment of the history of African Americans in segregated schools that has been overlooked and that provides important context for the ongoing debate about how best to educate African American children.

Book Synopsis Thomas Day by : Patricia Phillips Marshall
Download or read book Thomas Day written by Patricia Phillips Marshall and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2010-05-22 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Day (1801-61), a free man of color from Milton, North Carolina, became the most successful cabinetmaker in North Carolina--white or black--during a time when most blacks were enslaved and free blacks were restricted in their movements and activities. His surviving furniture and architectural woodwork still represent the best of nineteenth-century craftsmanship and aesthetics. In this lavishly illustrated book, Patricia Phillips Marshall and Jo Ramsay Leimenstoll show how Day plotted a carefully charted course for success in antebellum southern society. Beginning in the 1820s, he produced fine furniture for leading white citizens and in the 1840s and '50s diversified his offerings to produce newel posts, stair brackets, and distinctive mantels for many of the same clients. As demand for his services increased, the technological improvements Day incorporated into his shop contributed to the complexity of his designs. Day's style, characterized by undulating shapes, fluid lines, and spiraling forms, melded his own unique motifs with popular design forms, resulting in a distinctive interpretation readily identified to his shop. The photographs in the book document furniture in public and private collections and architectural woodwork from private homes not previously associated with Day. The book provides information on more than 160 pieces of furniture and architectural woodwork that Day produced for 80 structures between 1835 and 1861. Through in-depth analysis and generous illustrations, including over 240 photographs (20 in full color) and architectural photography by Tim Buchman, Marshall and Leimenstoll provide a comprehensive perspective on and a new understanding of the powerful sense of aesthetics and design that mark Day's legacy.

Book Synopsis Descendants of a Foot-Warmer by : Costello L Brown, PhD
Download or read book Descendants of a Foot-Warmer written by Costello L Brown, PhD and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-02-20 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells the story of the Brown family of Caswell County, NC, and their journey over four generations, captured in short stories, vignettes and whimsical narrative glimpses. The Brown family's journey began two generations earlier with my grandmother's grandmother, Queen Evans, who was kidnapped in Africa and brought to North Carolina as a slave on a plantation of a White slave owner. One of the many duties of Queen, the seven-year-old enslaved girl, was to serve as a "Foot-Warmer." The stories, in no particular sequence, are centered around the descendants of Queen. In the cover photo, I am the little boy standing on the front row, and Queen's son, Sam Evans, is seated and holding a cane.These stories have a strong overall focus on education and educational achievements, financial ingenuity and the Brown family's service to society, all in the context of the rural South and the accompanying Jim Crow laws and systemic racism from slavery to the present time.At the same time, the reader will have the opportunity to view Christmas Eve through the eyes of children who don't know they are poor or Black and share in the culinary delights and humor of Christmas dinner at Granny's house. After reading these stories, the reader is asked to answer the question, "Considering the constraints and challenges, how well did the Brown family do?"
