LITERACY QUOTE OF THE DAY

Thursday, February 15, 2024

“In short, Virginia ensured that there would be schooling for whites but not blacks; and after that, the state changed its laws so that those who were illiterate would not be able to vote.” – Carol Anderson, One Person, No Vote: How Voter Suppression Is Destroying Our Democracy

#wearenotyetequal understanding our racial divides. By #carolanderson with #tonyabolden @bloomsburychildrens Aug 20 . . This fascinating and informative book is adapted from the best seller white rage we are not yet equal which summons young people to bear witness to the devastating and expansive strategies white citizens have taken up to preserve the racialized violence that emerge from the founding of the nation. . . history texts often teach that the United States have made a straight line of progress towards black equality the reality is much more complex milestones like the end of slavery school integration and equal voting rights have all been met with racist legal and political maneuvering is meant to limit the progress. This examines five of these moments: Reconstructing Reconstruction; Derailing the Great migration; Burning Brown to the ground; Rolling back Civil Rights and . Unelecting a Black President. It includes archival imagery and photos plus extra resources. This looks a must read. I was especially interested to see the inclusion of Thurgood Marshall as I have just watched a film about his early life as a lawyer before he became a supreme court judge ( on Netflix. ) I will be interested to read about his later life. Inspirational man . . . This should definitely be included in all school libraries. https://www.instagram.com/p/CDWQLYRAL6s/?igshid=1iafqmnoj06uv

📚White Rage📚 . I finished this a couple of weeks ago and it certainly has stuck with me. Dr. Anderson clearly shows that slavery didn't truly end in the US and it simply evolved. She writes in a way that is accessible to people and while the subject matter is tough, it is relatively easy to follow what she's saying. . I was fortunate enough to go to a high school that taught some of these topics but I still learned so much. I wish anyone who's ever said "get over it slavery was 400 years ago" had to read this book. . #whiterage #carolanderson #nonfiction #bookblogger #bookishlove #bookstagram #bookreview #bookishcommunity #readersofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CB_O8-gnmZZ/?igshid=19l037mb8ghq9

One of the five most defining experiences of my life is taking a class called Black Freedom Movement from Dr. Carol Anderson at Mizzou during my undergraduate work. Today I was privileged to hear her speak in Austin and then chat with her over dinner with @krhenze a fellow Mizzou PhD. I left feeling humbled, inspired, and hopeful. #carolanderson #texasbookfestival #whiterage #onepersonnovote #mizzou (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpdiWemBxE2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1c3kxzqcm4amp
