Let us make men : the twentieth-century black press and a manly vision for racial advancement / D'Weston Haywood. - 1 online resource (x, 340 pages) - North Carolina scholarship online . - North Carolina scholarship online. .
Includes bibliographical references (pages 237-327) and index.
Go to it, my Southern brothers : the rise of the modern black press, great migration, and construction of urban black manhood -- Garvey must go : the black press and the making and unmaking of black male leadership -- The fraternity : Robert S. Abbott, John Sengstacke, and a new order in black (male) journalism -- A challenge to our manhood : Robert F. Williams, the civil rights movement, and the decline of the mainstream black press -- Walk the way of free men : Malcolm X, displaying the original man, and troubling the black press as the voice of the race.
During its golden years, the 20th-century black press was a tool of black men's leadership, public voice, and gender and identity formation. Those at the helm of black newspapers used their platforms to wage a fight for racial justice and black manhood. In a story that stretches from the turn of the 20th century to the rise of the Black Power Movement, D'Weston Haywood argues that black people's ideas, rhetoric, and protest strategies for racial advancement grew out of the quest for manhood led by black newspapers. This history departs from standard narratives of black protest, black men, and the black press by positioning newspapers at the intersections of gender, ideology, race, class, identity, urbanization, the public sphere, and black institutional life.
