New York: The Penguin Press, 2009. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated]. Hardcover. [12], 370, [2] pages. Illustrations. Notes. Index. Minor sticker residue on back of DJ. This ground-breaking 'family history' traces the secret double life of a nineteenth-century scientist and surveyor of the post-Civil War American West, revealing the mixed heritage that enabled him to cross color lines and conduct a second existence as a black Pullman porter and steelworker with an African-American wife and five multi-racial children. Martha Ann Sandweiss (born March 29, 1954) is an American historian, with particular interests in the history of the American West, visual culture, and public history. She is a professor of History at Princeton University, and the author of several books. Sandweiss is the Founder and Project Director of the Princeton & Slavery Project, a large-scale investigation into Princeton University's historical ties to the institution of slavery. The Princeton & Slavery Project began with an undergraduate research seminar Sandweiss taught in spring 2013, and has since grown to comprise a website and public programming events in Princeton, New Jersey.[4] The Project website launched on November 6, 2017, and currently includes more than 90 scholarly essays, a digital archive of hundreds of historical sources, video interviews with Princeton University alumni, and other multimedia tools and features. A scholarly symposium presenting Project findings was held in November 2017, beginning with a keynote speech by Nobel Laureate Toni Morrison and including panels discussing the Project's research and its implications for the study of slavery in the United States.

Buenos Aires, Argentina: STF Books, 2007. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Hardcover. 176 pages. Oversized book, measuring 11 inches by 9-1/4 inches. Illustrated endpaper. Profusely illustrated in color and in black and white. Foreword by David A. Harris. This book presents the American Jewish Committee's accomplishments during its first hundred years with thoughtful but concise text, graphically interesting chronologies, and compelling archival documents and photographs. This approach provides a vivid and readable portrait of how AJC, established in an act of conscience to rescue Jews from czarist oppression, became a global presence that made a difference on many of the key issues of the twentieth century. American Jewish Committee (AJC) is a Jewish advocacy group established on November 11, 1906. It is one of the oldest Jewish advocacy organizations and, according to The New York Times, is "widely regarded as the dean of American Jewish organizations". As of 2009, AJC envisions itself as the "Global Center for Jewish and Israel Advocacy". Besides working in favor of civil liberties for Jews, the organization has a history of fighting against forms of discrimination in the United States and working on behalf of social equality, such as filing a friend-of-the-court brief in the May 1954 case of Brown v. Board of Education and participating in other events in the Civil Rights Movement. In 1979, David Harris began working for the American Jewish Committee (AJC). In 1981, he left the AJC to take a position at the National Coalition Supporting Soviet Jewry. In 1984, he returned to the AJC and since 1990, Harris has served as the Executive Director of the AJC.

New York: Random House, 1968. First Printing [Stated]. Hardcover. The format is approximately 8.75 inches by 11.25 inches. 255, [1] pages. Illustrations. DJ has some weartears, chips and soiling. Illustrated endpapers. Preface by Thomas P. F. Hoving. Introduction by Candice van Ellison. Presents images on a decadal basis starting with From White to Black Harlem; An Urban Black Culture; Depression and Hard Times; War, Hope and Opportunity; Frustration and Ambivalence; and Militancy and Identity. This is associated with a Metropolitan Museum of Art Exhibition. That exhibition was produced in association with the New York State Council on the Arts. On January 18, 1969, one of the first exhibits to showcase the Black American experience. Now, a generation later, Harlem on My Mind still influences the way museums around the world present African American culture to the public. The exhibition was also an attempt to respond to the Civil Rights movement, which had reached a fever pitch with the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr. and the Civil Rights Act of 1968. It was a contentious moment, and there were signs of controversy long before the show opened to the public. As early as a year in advance of the opening, various committee members and prominent Black artists withdrew their support for the exhibition. One of the central complaints was the exclusion of work by Black artists, such as Romare Bearden, Faith Ringgold, and Jacob Lawrence—all of whom were living in Harlem, creating works that would have easily fit the exhibition’s narrative. The Museum’s collection already included works by Bearden and Lawrence. More

One hundred photographs--many never before published--trace the life and times of Dr. Martin Luther King and highlight the biographical text, which draws on interviews with many of King's closest associates, including Ralph Abernathy, Andrew Young, Julian Bond, and Jesse Jackson. Flip Schulke (born Graeme Phelps Schulke, June 24, 1930–May 15, 2008) was an American photographer. He taught briefly at the University of Miami, then began working as a freelance photographer. He worked for Life , and covered a variety of events, including the Cuban Revolution. Schulke began photographing the civil rights movement in the American south as early as 1956. Schulke formed a bond with civil rights activist Martin Luther King, Jr. after an all-night conversation in 1958, and began photographing him. King invited Schulke to photograph secret planning meetings of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, though not all of the activists trusted him being there. He also photographed the 1963 March on Washington and the 1965 Selma to Montgomery March. They traveled together until King's death in 1968, which upset Schulke so much that he stopped covering the civil rights movement and began to work on more commercial projects. In all, he took around 11,000 photographs of King, including some of his funeral. More

Jeter We in the Livingstone College, National Alumni Association, and indeed the entire Livingstone College Community will be forever indebted to you for your loyal service and support throughout the years. Best Wishes, Sol Seay 2-18-09. Attorney Solomon Snowden Seay Jr. (1931-2015) played an integral role in Alabama communities and courtrooms in support of the civil rights movement from the late 1950s into the 1990s. Seay most notably participated in court cases aimed at desegregating public facilities in Montgomery, Montgomery County, ensuring that Alabama counties enforced the integration of public schools mandated by state and federal courts, and outlawing disenfranchisement practices dictated in the 1965 Voting Rights Act. He interceded in numerous causes around the state where white supremacists threatened the safety and livelihood of African American residents. Seay's legal activities demonstrate that the civil rights struggle was not restricted to urban areas in the Southeast, but pervaded rural areas as well, and that struggle persists into contemporary times. Delores R. Boyd practiced law for twenty-five years in her hometown of Montgomery, Alabama, before serving as a municipal court judge and a United States Magistrate Judge. Currently a mediator, Boyd is a product of Montgomery’s transition in the 1960s from a Jim Crow society. More
