Scarce, none in OCLC collections worldwide. The African American Business District provided services that Meridian's Black community could not otherwise receive. Jim Crow laws that were passed across the country from 1876 to 1965 kept most of Meridian's businesses segregated. Many white owned businesses either refused to serve Black customers or served them on a limited basis. Beginning around the turn of the 20th century, pioneering African American businesspeople stepped forward to fill the needs of their community. The Council of Organizations formed in 1972 to promote the social, cultural, and educational interests of the African American community in Meridian. With representation from Black civic, social, business, professional, fraternal, and educational clubs, the Council provides scholarships and hosts the celebrated Meridian Picnic each year in Meridian or host regions. Long time Black Community leader and educator C. E. Oatis, Jr. (1925-2011) served as President of the National Council of Meridianiates for 30 years.

In den WarenkorbZustand: Excellent. A carte de visite portrait of activist and theosophist Annie Besant (1847-1933), taken by the German portrait photographer Hayman Seleg Mendelssohn (1847-1908). Besant was a campaigner for a number of activist causes in Britain, first as a speaker and writer for the National Secular Society, where she met ath…eist activist Charles Bradlaugh; the two were prosecuted for breaching the Obscene Publications Act when they published Charles Knowlton's The Fruits of Philosophy, a pamphlet about birth control methods. Besant was active in socialist and union organizing with the Fabian Society and Social Democratic Federation. Around 1890 Besant met Helena Blavatsky and became interested in theosophy; this led her to India, where she established both schools and Masonic lodges and joined the Indian National Congress. Her campaigning for Indian independence led first to her arrest and then to election as president of the INC in 1917. She continued to publish on Indian politics and theosophical topics until her death in India in 1933. Carte de visite measuring 2 ? x 4 inches. With later manuscript pencil markings on the verso. A few spots on the photograph, with some wear to mount.

In den WarenkorbFirst edition. Important autobiography by Paul S.K?chi (1889-1980) who was a leader of the Okinawan immigrant community in Los Angels, both before and after WWII.K?chi worked as a migrant farmworker first in Mexico, where he immigrated in 1917, and then in Fresno after crossing over illegally to the U.S. He was, with his close f…riend Shingi Nakamura, a founding member of the Okinawan relief movement, which came to fruition afterK?chi served in the OSS during the war. His progressive activism led to a deportation order as a subversive during the Red Scare, though he was defended by the Los Angeles chapter of the Committee for the Protection of the Foreign-born, and the charges were later dropped. This book, while fairly widely held institutionally, is scarce in the trade. This, a lovely signed copy fromK?chi, a key figure in the post-war Japanese community in Los Angeles. 23x15cm, 53, [1]pp. English translation by Ben Kobashigawa.

In den WarenkorbFirst Edition. Quarto. 29pp. Bound in a Smead Pressboard Binder. 278pp. printed to rectos only. Clean, strong and bright, internally clean, a very good, solid copy. Essentially all of the relevant literature for a two day course on student protests on US campuses, divided into three sections detailed in the text: "The Campus Dur…ing Crisis" discussing the roles of the faculty, the legality of police involvement in campus protests, the role of student leaders etc.; "The Campus After Crisis" with particular focus on the Kent State atrocity, the makeup of post demonstration tribunals and hearing committees, and a comparison of student rules regarding protest from the perspective of the campus, and when the "rules" are organized from the perspective of the students (the test case here is contributed by the students of UC Berkeley); and the final part, "The Aftermath of Crisis" which contains an article entitled "Universities and Political Involvement: A Tentative Agenda" alongside sections detailing the Free Speech policies of a number of prominent US universities and colleges, the legality of demonstration at various institutions, and a clear inference that campus authorities regularly break the law and behave unconstitutionally when suppressing students exercising their rights to free speech and assembly on the sites set aside for this purpose. 54 years old at the date of cataloging, this academic and extremely considered and detailed text suggests that nothing changes but it stays the same, and that few democratic rights survive their first encounter with aggressive institutional self interest.

In den WarenkorbFirst Edition. [Palestine] [Social Activism] Archive of two pieces regarding the rights of Palestine. One pamphlet presented by the United Nations, and a handbill presented by the Palestine Liberation Organization. 1970s-1980. Set includes: The Palestine Question: A Brief History. New York: United Nations, 1980. First edition, S…tapled wraps, 25 pages, measuring 5.5" x 8.5". This pamphlet studies the roots of the Palestinian conflict and its present state circa 1980. Prepared for, and under the guidance of the Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People. Selected quotes include: "Until recently the Security Council's approach to the Palestine issue has been confined to the framework of its resolution 242 (1967) of nearly 13 years ago. However, the General Assembly, reflecting the will of the majority of the community of nations, has extended recognition of the fundamental rights of the Palestinian people.". "The Palestinian people now number approximately 4 million a population larger than that of many Member States of the United Nations. About half-a-million of the Palestinians live in Israel. Another 1,200,000 live in the occupied territories of the West Bank and Gaza. The remainder are in exile; many still in refugee camps, many as foreigners in other countries. The majority of those in exile still hope to return to their own country.". "The United Nations has recognized that a fundamental factor in averting this threat to world peace is to enable the Palestinian people to exercise its inalienable right of self-determination, national independence and sovereignty in Palestine."; Basic Facts About the Palestine Problem New York: Palestine Liberation Organization. Undated but seems to be from the 1970s. Printed on both sides. 8.5" x 11". The handbill lists three sections of informational factoids beginning with "Do You Know" arguing for the right of Palestinians to the territory of Palestine over the state of Israel. One quote states ".1947 recommendation to create a "Jewish State" in Palestine was approved, at the very first vote, only by European, American, and Australasian States.for every Asian State, and every African State (with the exception of the Union of South Africa) voted against it?" Minor fading, and a small .5" tear to the left side of the handbill. Overall very good condition. An early set of pro-Palestinian documents.

In den WarenkorbA studio portrait of nurse and American Red Cross founder Clara Barton. The portrait was likely taken around the early 1900s, based on Barton's apparent age and the lace fichu she wears, which resembles the one worn in her 1904 portrait by James E. Purdy. Barton wears several Red Cross brooches-one at the neck and one on a ribbo…n at the chest-and sits beside another Red Cross piece, likely a nurse's cap. These accoutrements may date the photograph to somewhat before 1904; that year, she was pressured to resign as president of the Red Cross, and in her Purdy portrait does not wear any of its insignia. Very good contrast. Some marks on the recto with one small chip to lower right margin; excellent. Silver gelatin print measuring 3 ¾ x 5 ¾ inches. Manuscript verso including ?Brown Bros.?, ?Clara Barton?, ?BARTON, CLARA / portraits.
