Conservatives speak in ominous tones of voter fraud so widespread that it threatens public trust in elected government. Progressives counter that fraud is rare and that calls for reforms such as voter ID are part of a campaign to shrink the electorate and exclude some citizens from the political life of the nation.
North Carolina is a battleground for this debate, and its history can help us understand why--a century and a half after ratification of the Fifteenth Amendment--we remain a nation divided over the right to vote. In Fragile Democracy, James L. Leloudis and Robert R. Korstad tell the story of race and voting rights, from the end of the Civil War until the present day. They show that battles over the franchise have played out through cycles of emancipatory politics and conservative retrenchment. When race has been used as an instrument of exclusion from political life, the result has been a society in which vast numbers of Americans are denied the elements of meaningful freedom: a good job, a good education, good health, and a good home. That history points to the need for a bold new vision of what democracy looks like.0 aDescription based on print version record. aBiblioBoard internal publisher id: df360529-f6ed-4c59-9df4-85e2699e2894 7aHistory / United States / State & Local2bisacsh 7aPolitical Science / American Government / State2bisacsh 7aSocial Science / Discrimination2bisacsh 0aHistory 0aElectronic books. iIs found in:aNC Live - Test1https://www.nclive.org/cgi-bin/nclsm?url=https://library.biblioboard.com/module/58664b6b-630a-4b14-bdb6-848191a680b540uhttps://www.nclive.org/cgi-bin/nclsm?url=https://library.biblioboard.com/content/df360529-f6ed-4c59-9df4-85e2699e2894zListen to this content on BiblioBoard.02828nim a22003377a 4500001003700000003000800037005001700045006001900062007001500081008004100096037001600137245014200153029014900295040002100444100002900465700003500494264006100529300002300590336003300613337002300646338003600669520116900705588004701874590007601921650004601997650009102043650002002134655002202154758015102176856016302327a569d01b-0125-425b-8dc6-5f4bb987e83fScCtBLL20220119212433.0m o d cr u||||||||||220119p20212021xx o u00| u eng d 5BiblioBoard00aBlack Faces, White SpacesbReimagining the Relationship of African Americans to the Great Outdoors /cCarolyn Finney, Chanté McCormick.1 ahttps://www.nclive.org/cgi-bin/nclsm?url=https://library.biblioboard.com/ext/api/media/a569d01b-0125-425b-8dc6-5f4bb987e83f/assets/thumbnail.jpg aScCtBLLcScCtBLL1 aFinney, Carolyneauthor.1 aMcCormick, Chantéenarrator. 1a[s.l.] :bThe University of North Carolina Press,c2021. a1 online resource. aspoken wordbspw2rdacontent aaudiobs2rdamedia aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier aWhy are African Americans so underrepresented when it comes to interest in nature, outdoor recreation, and environmentalism? In this thought-provoking study, Carolyn Finney looks beyond the discourse of the environmental justice movement to examine how the natural environment has been understood, commodified, and represented by both white and black Americans. Bridging the fields of environmental history, cultural studies, critical race studies, and geography, Finney argues that the legacies of slavery, Jim Crow, and racial violence have shaped cultural understandings of the "great outdoors" and determined who should and can have access to natural spaces.
Drawing on a variety of sources from film, literature, and popular culture, and analyzing different historical moments, including the establishment of the Wilderness Act in 1964 and the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, Finney reveals the perceived and real ways in which nature and the environment are racialized in America. Looking toward the future, she also highlights the work of African Americans who are opening doors to greater participation in environmental and conservation concerns.0 aDescription based on print version record. aBiblioBoard internal publisher id: a569d01b-0125-425b-8dc6-5f4bb987e83f 7aSocial Science / Human Geography2bisacsh 7aSocial Science / Ethnic Studies / American / African American & Black Studies2bisacsh 0aSocial sciences 0aElectronic books. iIs found in:aNC Live - Test1https://www.nclive.org/cgi-bin/nclsm?url=https://library.biblioboard.com/module/58664b6b-630a-4b14-bdb6-848191a680b540uhttps://www.nclive.org/cgi-bin/nclsm?url=https://library.biblioboard.com/content/a569d01b-0125-425b-8dc6-5f4bb987e83fzListen to this content on BiblioBoard. 02859nim a22003497a 45000010037000000030008000370050017000450060019000620070015000810080041000960370016001372450103001530290149002560400021004051000026004267000033004522640061004853000023005463360033005693370023006023380036006255201189006615880047018505900076018976500082019736500052020556500055021076500012021626550022021747580151021968560162023470abcf78b-a6e6-4204-bab3-26b4eabeaeaeScCtBLL20220119212433.0m o d cr u||||||||||220119p20212021xx o u00| u eng d 5BiblioBoard00aCommittedbRemembering Native Kinship in and Beyond Institutions /cSusan Burch, Nastasia Marquez.1 ahttps://www.nclive.org/cgi-bin/nclsm?url=https://library.biblioboard.com/ext/api/media/0abcf78b-a6e6-4204-bab3-26b4eabeaeae/assets/thumbnail.jpg aScCtBLLcScCtBLL1 aBurch, Susaneauthor.1 aMarquez, Nastasiaenarrator. 1a[s.l.] :bThe University of North Carolina Press,c2021. a1 online resource. aspoken wordbspw2rdacontent aaudiobs2rdamedia aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier aBetween 1902 and 1934, the United States confined hundreds of adults and children from dozens of Native nations at the Canton Asylum for Insane Indians, a federal psychiatric hospital in South Dakota. But detention at the Indian Asylum, as families experienced it, was not the beginning or end of the story. For them, Canton Asylum was one of many places of imposed removal and confinement, including reservations, boarding schools, orphanages, and prison-hospitals. Despite the long reach of institutionalization for those forcibly held at the Asylum, the tenacity of relationships extended within and beyond institutional walls.
In this accessible and innovative work, Susan Burch tells the story of the Indigenous people—families, communities, and nations, across generations to the present day—who have experienced the impact of this history. Drawing on oral history interviews, correspondence, material objects, and archival sources, Burch reframes the histories of institutionalized people and the places that held them. Committed expands the boundaries of Native American history, disability studies, and U.S. social and cultural history generally.0 aDescription based on print version record. aBiblioBoard internal publisher id: 0abcf78b-a6e6-4204-bab3-26b4eabeaeae 7aSocial Science / Ethnic Studies / American / Native American Studies2bisacsh 7aHistory / United States / 20th Century2bisacsh 7aSocial Science / People With Disabilities2bisacsh 0aHistory 0aElectronic books. iIs found in:aNC Live - Test1https://www.nclive.org/cgi-bin/nclsm?url=https://library.biblioboard.com/module/58664b6b-630a-4b14-bdb6-848191a680b540uhttps://www.nclive.org/cgi-bin/nclsm?url=https://library.biblioboard.com/content/0abcf78b-a6e6-4204-bab3-26b4eabeaeaezListen to this content on BiblioBoard.
