Book Synopsis Keep On Keeping On by : Brian J. Daugherity
Download or read book Keep On Keeping On written by Brian J. Daugherity and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2016-08-03 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virginia was a battleground state in the struggle to implement Brown v. Board of Education, with one of the South’s largest and strongest NAACP units fighting against a program of noncompliance crafted by the state’s political leaders. Keep On Keeping On offers a detailed examination of how African Americans and the NAACP in Virginia successfully pursued a legal agenda that provided new educational opportunities for the state’s black population in the face of fierce opposition from segregationists and the Democratic Party of Harry F. Byrd Sr. Keep On Keeping On is the first book to offer a comprehensive view of African Americans’ efforts to obtain racial equality in Virginia in the later twentieth century. Brian J. Daugherity considers the relationship between the various levels of the NAACP, the ideas and actions of other African American organizations, and the stances of Virginia’s political leaders, white liberals and moderates, and segregationists. In doing so, the author provides a better understanding of the connections between the actions of white political leaders and those of black civil rights activists working to bring about school desegregation. Blending social, legal, southern, and African American history, this book sheds new light on the civil rights movement and white resistance to civil rights in Virginia and the South.

Book excerpt: This is the story of Ron Davis, a charismatic young man who struggled to beat a 12 year addiction to drugs, only to be brutally murdered at the age of 39. The story of his parents, Brooks and Jean Davis, two ordinary people with extraordinary courage, who barely overcome one tragedy, only to be dealt another. A story of faith. Though Ron stumbled many times on the path to overcoming his addiction, he never once gave up the fight, always believing that victory was possible. A story of hope. Just as Ron never lost faith in himself, Brooks and Jean never lost faith in their son. Nor did they stop believing that the man responsible for Ron's murder would eventually be brought to justice-despite a crushing series of blows in a legal battle that lasted nearly eight years.

His legacy serves as a reminder that good can still come from even the worst of circumstances.

Book Synopsis Keep On, Keeping on by : Gregory Wheeler
Download or read book Keep On, Keeping on written by Gregory Wheeler and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-03-04 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author Gregory Wheeler has assembled a nice assortment of his poetry that revolves around the many emotions we have in life. Titled poems like, "Damn You Fear," "Comfort I Seek," or "Parents Do Care" can touch on the sensitive things we deal with personally or in families, whereas "Heart to Heart," "Fishing in the Boat," or "A Good Teacher" can inspire, and be uplifting in ways. There are so many more, and to think this is just the first book of poetry can be exciting for the future. For Gregory Wheeler poetry was an inspiration from his early years where his sister who had suffered from Multiple Sclerosis, wrote her own poetry even with her later years being totally bedridden. Sort of a family tradition, as his grandmother also wrote from time to time. Poetry has a way of finding the emotions that are stored deep from within. These trigger the words that compel one to begin. For Gregory Wheeler, after raising three children in some of the tougher times during the 80's and 90's many components of life gave him a wealth of things to write about. He started with a book called "A Distant Reality" that covered many trials and tribulations concerning his life and that of his family. A blend of poetry was mixed in and complimented his story. A few of those poems are also included in this book.

Book Synopsis A Little Child Shall Lead Them by : Brian J. Daugherity
Download or read book A Little Child Shall Lead Them written by Brian J. Daugherity and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2019-05-28 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the twentieth-century struggle for racial equality, there was perhaps no setting more fraught and contentious than the public schools of the American south. In Prince Edward County, Virginia, in 1951, a student strike for better school facilities became part of the NAACP legal campaign for school desegregation. That step ultimately brought this rural, agricultural county to the Supreme Court of the United States as one of five consolidated cases in the historic 1954 ruling, Brown v. Board of Education. Unique among those cases, Prince Edward County took the extreme stance of closing its public school system entirely rather than comply with the desegregation ruling of the Court. The schools were closed for five years, from 1959 to 1964, until the Supreme Court ruling in Griffin v. County School Board of Prince Edward County ordered the restoration of public education in the county. This historical anthology brings together court cases, government documents, personal and scholarly writings, speeches, and journalism to represent the diverse voices and viewpoints of the battle in Prince Edward County for—and against—educational equality. Providing historical context and contemporary analysis, this book offers a new perspective of a largely overlooked episode and seeks to help place the struggle for public education in Prince Edward County into its proper place in the civil rights era.

Book Synopsis With All Deliberate Speed by : Brian J. Daugherity
Download or read book With All Deliberate Speed written by Brian J. Daugherity and published by University of Arkansas Press. This book was released on 2011-05 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first effort to provide a broad assessment of how well the Brown v. Board of Education decision that declared an end to segregated schools in the United States was implemented. Written by a distinguished group of historians, the twelve essays in this collection examine how African Americans and their supporters in twelve states—Arkansas, North Carolina, Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi, Florida, Delaware, Missouri, Indiana, Nevada, and Wisconsin—dealt with the Court’s mandate to desegregate “with all deliberate speed.” The process followed many diverse paths. Some of the common themes in these efforts were the importance of black activism, especially the crucial role played by the NAACP; entrenched white opposition to school integration, which wasn’t just a southern state issue, as is shown in Delaware, Wisconsin, and Indiana; and the role of the federal government, a sometimes inconstant and sometimes reluctant source of support for implementing Brown.
