Grif Stockley uses the work of published and unpublished historians and exhaustive primary source materials along with stories from authors as diverse as Maya Angelou and E. Lynn Harris to bring to life the voices of those who have both studied and lived the racial experience in Arkansas.". 330 8 $a"Topics range from the well-known Little Rock Central High Crisis of 1957 to lesser-known events such as the Elaine Race Massacres of 1919 and the shocking yet sadly commonplace attitudes found in newspaper reports and speeches. Through the words of the most powerful Arkansans such as racist Arkansas Govenor Jeff Davis (1901-1906) to the least powerful, including an unflinching look at the narratives of former slaves, readers will come away with increased awareness of the ways that race continues to affect where Arkansans live, send their children to school, work, travel, shop, spend leisure time, worship, and choose their friends and life partners."--BOOK JACKET. 606 $aAfrican Americans$xCivil rights$zArkansas 606 $aAfrican Americans$zArkansas$xHistory 606 $aAfrican Americans$zArkansas$xSocial conditions 607 $aArkansas$xRace relations 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xCivil rights 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xHistory. 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xSocial conditions. 676 $a305.896/0730767 700 $aStockley$b Grif$01511974 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790295903321 996 $aRuled by race$93749960 997 $aUNINA 999 $aThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
