    Extractions: New stamp to honor Roy Wilkins for his civil rights activism Seth Woehrle Staff Writer University alumnus Roy Wilkins, who already has a residence hall and an auditorium named in his honor, will have another accolade added in January. The U.S. Postal Service will issue a Roy Wilkins stamp Jan. 24 as part of the Black Heritage Commemorative Stamp Series. Northrop Auditorium will be the first location in the country to issue the stamps. This first series of stamps will have the Minneapolis postmark on them, making them more valuable to collectors. The following day, the stamps will be available across the nation, and will continue to be printed in a run of two hundred million. The Man Roy Wilkins was born in St. Louis, Mo., on Aug. 30, 1901, and died 80 years later. He was an important figure in the fight for racial equality. "Wilkins had a long and distinguished career in the civil rights movement," said John Wright, a professor in African studies. "That went back to his (early) days in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area and from his days as a student here at the University."

85. Dudziak, M.L.: Cold War Civil Rights: Race And The Image Of American Democracy.
    Cold War civil rights Race and the Image of American Democracy. Never beforehas any scholar so directly connected civil rights and the Cold War.  
    http://pup.princeton.edu/titles/6924.html
    
    Extractions: Shopping Cart Reviews Table of Contents In 1958, an African-American handyman named Jimmy Wilson was sentenced to die in Alabama for stealing two dollars. Shocking as this sentence was, it was overturned only after intense international attention and the interference of an embarrassed John Foster Dulles. Soon after the United States' segregated military defeated a racist regime in World War II, American racism was a major concern of U.S. allies, a chief Soviet propaganda theme, and an obstacle to American Cold War goals throughout Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Each lynching harmed foreign relations, and "the Negro problem" became a central issue in every administration from Truman to Johnson. In what may be the best analysis of how international relations affected any domestic issue, Mary Dudziak interprets postwar civil rights as a Cold War feature. She argues that the Cold War helped facilitate key social reforms, including desegregation. Civil rights activists gained tremendous advantage as the government sought to polish its international image. But improving the nation's reputation did not always require real change. This focus on image rather than substancecombined with constraints on McCarthy-era political activism and the triumph of law-and-order rhetoriclimited the nature and extent of progress.

(Staff photo by Rose Lincoln) Forty years after their forerunners took to the lunch counters and streets of the American South, 21 young activists are putting their own spin on civil rights: by dancing, teaching, praying, and learning. The future leaders are honing their advocacy and activism skills at the second annual Civil Rights Summer (CRS), a fellowship program sponsored by The Civil Rights Project at Harvard, the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights, the Leadership Conference Education Fund, and the Citizens' Commission on Civil Rights.

    Extractions: "So valuable in helping us understand the civil rights movement as it gathered national force in the mid-1960s . . . also [a] powerfully written narrative of the local forces that made the movement possible."Michael Kennedy, Boston Globe "An important history of the Civil Rights movement at the grass-roots level. . . . The exellent bibliographic essay is essential reading." Library Journal "I was surprised at how much there is for myself and other movement people to learn about the Mississippi freedom struggle from Charles Payne's book."Bob Moses, SNIC Field Secretary, Mississippi, 1961-1965 "A superb and important book, remarkably astute in its judgments and strikingly sophisticated in its analyses. Impressively original, it is one of the most significant studies of the Black freedom struggle yet published."David J. Garrow, author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Bearing the Cross "A compelling story of the black freedom struggle in the Mississippi Delta. Charles Payne has written the definitive study of the civil rights movement in the Delta. Through his superb use of oral history interviews, Payne reveals the courage, passion, humor, and dedication of thousands of black women and men who worked, against overwhelming odds, to take charge of their destiny. This is the most comprehensive and revealing study of organizing on the grass-roots level that we have, and will be invaluable to scholars, students, and activists alike."John Dittmer, author of

    http://www.arts.ualberta.ca/cjscopy/reviews/trauma.html
    
    Extractions: One could read this book merely as very learned account of how African-American cultural expression has evolved, changed, and revolved back to its origins over the generations. Even a reader disagreeing with the premise of collective trauma would find this book fascinating for the history of African-American cultural protest that it presents. Eyerman leads the reader chronologically through the post-Reconstructionist period, through the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s and early 30s, through the influence of the early civil rights movements of the 1940s and 50s on such later activists as Martin Luther King. He continues with the rise of both black nationalism and the Nation of Islam. He also vividly shows the continuity in African-American history. For example, A. Philip Randolph, the trade unionist who organized the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters in 1925, influenced a later generation of civil rights activists.

    Extractions: In 1986, Japanese Prime Minister Yasuhiro Nakasone remarked that the average American intellectual standard is lower than the average Japanese standard because of the blacks and Hispanics in the U.S. He has often said that the source of Japan's strength lies in its "racial homogeneity." Eleven years later, University of Texas Law School Professor Lino Graglia triggered a firestorm of criticism for his remarks that "Blacks and Mexican-Americans are not academically competitive with whites in selective institutions. It is the result primarily of cultural effects. They have a culture that seems not to encourage achievement. Failure is not looked upon with disgrace." It has been said that race is the plague of civilization. Even in such supposedly race-blind societies as Israel, the specter of racism raises its head. In the Caribbean islands, social stratification corresponds with shade of skin. In 1977, Andrew Young, at that time the chief U.S. representative to the United Nations, claimed that a race war in South Africa would inevitably precipitate racial conflict in the United States. Some countries, like Great Britain and Australia, eliminate the potential for conflict by simply denying or severely limiting entry. However, American society has always been enriched by its waves of immigrants. John Kennedy observed how Alexis de Tocqueville saw the United States as "a society of immigrants, each of whom had begun life anew, on an equal footing. This was the secret of America: a nation of people with the fresh memory of old traditions who dared to explore new frontiers ..."
