This book was released on 2022-12-27 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: North Carolina Association of Black High School Alumni Closing Message We want to thank the contributors of the histories and additional materials that we have included in this first publication. The stories provide a historical road map of the progressions achieved through our segregated black schools. These schools were really a home-away-from-home. The principals, teachers and staff cared dearly for the students and their success. As most of the students were of farming families, the spring and fall of the year were the most challenging times for these students’ education. Growing up on the farm, the spring of the year was the planting season, and the fall of the year was the time to harvest. This made it nearly impossible for many of the students to keep up with their studies. However, these students were determined to succeed. They did whatever was necessary utilizing family, schoolmates, teachers and coaches to make up missing assignments to graduate successfully.
Book Synopsis Along Freedom Road by : David S. Cecelski
Download or read book Along Freedom Road written by David S. Cecelski and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2000-11-09 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Cecelski chronicles one of the most sustained and successful protests of the civil rights movement--the 1968-69 school boycott in Hyde County, North Carolina. For an entire year, the county's black citizens refused to send their children to school in protest of a desegregation plan that required closing two historically black schools in their remote coastal community. Parents and students held nonviolent protests daily for five months, marched twice on the state capitol in Raleigh, and drove the Ku Klux Klan out of the county in a massive gunfight. The threatened closing of Hyde County's black schools collided with a rich and vibrant educational heritage that had helped to sustain the black community since Reconstruction. As other southern school boards routinely closed black schools and displaced their educational leaders, Hyde County blacks began to fear that school desegregation was undermining--rather than enhancing--this legacy. This book, then, is the story of one county's extraordinary struggle for civil rights, but at the same time it explores the fight for civil rights in all of eastern North Carolina and the dismantling of black education throughout the South.

Book Synopsis Chowan Beach by : E. Frank Stephenson
Download or read book Chowan Beach written by E. Frank Stephenson and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1928, Eli Reid purchased 400 acres of picturesque property on the banks of the Chowan River in Hertford County, North Carolina. Soon after he acquired the land, Reid began turning the area into a Segregation-era resort for African Americans, and Chowan Beach was born. As the resort began to take shape in the late 1920s, it was clear that something special had been started. Wide sandy beaches were built, and construction was immediately started on guest cottages, bathhouses, a dance hall, photo studio, restaurant, picnic area and magnificent German-made carousel. Chowan Beach was an immediate success, and throngs of African Americans began to stream in from across North Carolina and the East Coast to relax and enjoy the atmosphere and spectacular views--an oasis of fun in a social desert of limited opportunities and unfair treatment. The water was cool and refreshing, the crowds were friendly, and the music was hot, as the beach was a popular stop for musicians touring on the Chitlin Circuit, including B.B. King, James Brown, Sam Cooke and The Drifters. In this nostalgic new book, author Frank Stephenson brings back the glory days of Chowan Beach with an array of vintage photographs and a brief history of the area. Come along as Stephenson revisits the past of this beloved beach and offers a reminder of what it meant to generations of African American visitors.

Book Synopsis You Can't Fall off the Floor by : Ben Watford
Download or read book You Can't Fall off the Floor written by Ben Watford and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009-11-02 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can anything good come out of Winton? The King James Version of the Holy Bible relates an episode in which Jesus Christ was choosing men to become Disciples. Phillip was sent to invite Nathanael to join the other followers. When Phillip informed Nathanael that Jesus of Nazareth was indeed the Messiah, Nathanael asked, Can anything good come out of Nazareth? Nazareth, like Winton, was not a place in which one would expect to find greatness. The negative label that too often has been placed on small, rural towns and their people can become a self-fulfilling prophesy. Unless an individual has a healthy view of self, he or she may live down to the level of popular perception. I spent a fair amount of my youth living with the socially assigned designation of country kid. The inference of this distinction was that I lacked many of the virtues that were automatically attributed to city kids. That may have been true, but the net result was that it motivated me to prove that something good could come out of Winton. As Phillip did to Nathanael, in this book, we invite all to come and see.
