504 | |a Includes bibliographical references (pages 279-313) and index. | ||
520 | |a "This exquisitely researched book is a fine resource for understanding how deindustrialization and urban renewal shaped Black America post-World War II. From these pages emerges a remarkable portrait of a people determined to win full equality and self-determination in spite of mounting obstacles. It is an essential reference for those interested in cities, twentieth-century history, and African American studies."--Mindy Thompson Fullilove, Columbia University. | ||
520 | |a "Breaks new ground as the first significant history of the African American community of Pittsburgh since World War II. The authors' approach is wide-ranging, covering issues of civil rights, housing and segregation, organizational development, and political involvement, among other subjects. What makes this volume particularly valuable, however, is its placement of Pittsburgh's black community in the framework of the city's decline as an industrial center and eventual rebirth as a smaller city with a postindustrial economic base. It deserves a wide readership."--Kenneth L. Kusmer, Temple University. | ||
520 | |a "Imaginatively conceived, well researched, and engagingly written. Trotter and Day have crafted a new standard for the study of African American community that deepens our understanding of urban black culture formations and the transformations in, and manipulations of, political power. They admirably demonstrate the complexity of African Americans' efforts to seize the Dream and make real a new birth of freedom."--Darlene Clark Hine, Northwestern University. | ||
520 | |a African Americans from Pittsburgh have a long and distinctive history of contributions to the cultural, political, and social evolution of the United States. As home to jazz legend Earl Fatha Hines, the Pittsburgh Courier, photographer Charles "Teenie" Harris, and playwright August Wilson and as the site of labor protests in the 1950s and the Black Power movement of the late 1960s, Pittsburgh has been a force for change in American race and class relations. | ||
520 | |a Race and Renaissance presents the first history of African American life in Pittsburgh after World War II. It examines the origins and significance of the second Great Migration, the persistence of Jim Crow into the postwar years, the second ghetto, the contemporary urban crisis, the Civil Rights and Black Power movements, and the Million Man and Million Woman marches, among other topics. | ||
520 | |a In recreating this period, Trotter and Day draw not only from newspaper articles and other primary and secondary sources, but also from oral histories. These include interviews with African Americans who lived in Pittsburgh during the postwar era, which reveal firsthand accounts of what life was truly like during this transformative epoch. | ||
520 | |a Race and Renaissance illuminates how Pittsburgh's African Americans arrived at their present moment in history. It also links movements for change to larger global issues, such as civil rights with the Vietnam War and affirmative action with the movement against South African apartheid. Drawing on sociology and urban studies, this study deepens our understanding of the lives of urban blacks. --Book Jacket. | ||
