1963221701963. Civil Rights African American Slavery and Abolition A complete set of the Adventures in Negro History educational LP series created to promote Black history and culture during the Civil Rights era through dramatized narration and scholarly commentary. Adventures in Negro History: Volumes I-III. Highlight Radio Productions 1963 1966 1969. Three original 12-inch 33⅓ rpm vinyl LPs each record housed in original illustrated jacket. Commissioned by Pepsi-Cola and produced by the Chicago-based Highlight Radio Productions this project brought together historians actors and community leaders in an accessible audio-driven public history format. Each volume explores a distinct theme in African American experience with powerful graphic covers and scholarly liner notes by eminent historians John Hope Franklin and Elsie M. Lewis.<br /> <br /> 1 Volume I: Adventures in Negro History 1963. Illustrated in stark black and white the cover features a stylized portrait of a bound enslaved man visually evoking the violent conditions of enslavement and the struggle for freedom. The back cover provides capsule biographies of pivotal figures including Estevanico Crispus Attucks and W.E.B. Du Bois as well as dramatizations of "Douglass!" and "Pinchback!" 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." The tone is urgent and pedagogical designed to be played in schools libraries and community centers. <br /> <br /> 2 Volume II: The Frederick Douglass Years 1817-1895 1966.With a bold blue cover echoing the design of Volume I this LP focuses entirely on Douglass's life from enslavement to abolitionist leader. A full panel on the reverse contains the essay What the Douglass Years Mean to America by John Hope Franklin then Professor of American History at the University of Chicago. Franklin writes: "The Frederick Douglass story is the story of America in the nineteenth century. it is the story of man's struggle for justice and liberty in a society often committed more to self-interest than to high principle." The dramatizations include scenes from Douglass's escape from slavery his debates with white abolitionists and his role during Reconstruction. The same acclaimed voice cast from Volume I returns. <br /> <br /> 3 Volume III: The Afro-American's Quest for Education - A Black Odyssey 1969.This volume shifts focus to the historical struggle for Black educational access from slavery through desegregation. The cover rendered in burnt sienna and black features a graphic portrait of a bearded elder flanked by line drawings of teachers students and historic Black institutions. On the verso Dr. Elsie M. Lewis Professor of History at Howard University contributes a major essay declaring: "No phase of the American Negro's history is more crucial more dramatic or more moving than his long dogged quest for education." Her commentary frames education as both a right and revolutionary act for African Americans. Like earlier entries Volume III blends narrative scenes with documentary-style commentary. <br /> <br /> All three LPs are in very good condition with minor edge wear to sleeves. Vinyl appears clean with no visible scratches. These records were not mass-marketed and were distributed largely through educational and community networks making complete sets scarce. unknown

1941211681941. Woodson Carter G. The Negro History Bulletin. These mid-twentieth century periodicals document the institutionalization of African American historical scholarship and pedagogy under the leadership of Carter G. Woodson whose work established Black history as a formal field of study in the United States. Issued between 1941 and 1949 these issues provide primary evidence of how African American history was researched interpreted and disseminated during a period shaped by World War II migration and ongoing struggles for civil rights. Founded in 1937 at the urging of Mary McLeod Bethune the Negro History Bulletin functioned as an educational tool for teachers and students presenting accessible scholarship on African American life the African diaspora and global Black history. Editorial direction under Woodson emphasized correcting omissions in dominant historical narratives and foregrounding Black agency with content ranging from slavery and Reconstruction to contemporary wartime contributions and cultural production.<br /> <br /> Woodson Carter G. ed.

Together 4 leaves 7 pp. the first two legal-size 14" x 8 1/2" the others slightly shorter; brad bound inside a 14.74 x 9" printed chemise folded to 9" x 3.75". 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. <br /> <br /> 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. <br /> <br /> Importantly this document lists the goals of the NLBAWP organization:<br /> <br /> "To foster strengthen and improve business within the Negro community." <br /> "To advance the cause of the Negro tavern and hotel owner as a whole." <br /> "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." <br /> "To create and project the proper image of a tavern or hotel owner in the community." <br /> "To sponsor aid and assist any charitable or civic project approved by the members."<br /> <br /> 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.<br /> <br /> 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

Contains individual magazine covers in book binding. A five issue set of Black World from the months of May to October of 1970.

The five volumes contained within this book contain poetry short stories reflections on pan-Africanism examinations of racism Swahili language studies and continental African politics.
