Описание: Grounded in the rich history of Chicago politics, <em>For the Freedom of Her Race</em> tells a wide-ranging story about black women's involvement in southern, midwestern, and national politics. Examining the oppressive decades between the end of Reconstruction in 1877 and the election of Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1932--a period that is often described as the nadir of black life in America--Lisa Materson shows that as African American women migrated beyond the reach of southern white supremacists, they became active voters, canvassers, suffragists, campaigners, and lobbyists, mobilising to gain a voice in national party politics and elect representatives who would push for the enforcement of the Reconstruction Amendments in the South.

Описание: On January 15, 1903, South Carolina lieutenant governor James H. Tillman shot and killed Narciso G. Gonzales, editor of South Carolina�s most powerful newspaper, the State. Blaming Gonzales�s stinging editorials for his loss of the 1902 gubernatorial race, Tillman shot Gonzales to avenge the defeat and redeem his �honor� and his reputation as a man who took bold, masculine action in the face of an insult.
James Lowell Underwood investigates the epic murder trial of Tillman to test whether biting editorials were a legitimate exercise of freedom of the press or an abuse that justified killing when camouflaged as self-defense. This clash�between the revered values of respect for human life and freedom of expression on the one hand and deeply engrained ideas about honor on the other�took place amid legal maneuvering and political posturing worthy of a major motion picture. One of the most innovative elements of Deadly Censorship is Underwood�s examination of homicide as a deterrent to public censure. He asks the question, �Can a man get away with murdering a political opponent?� Deadly Censorship is courtroom drama and a true story.
Deadly Censorship is a painstaking recreation of an act of violence in front of the State House, the subsequent trial, and Tillman�s acquittal, which sent shock waves across the United States. A specialist on constitutional law, James Lowell Underwood has written the definitive examination of the court proceedings, the state�s complicated homicide laws, and the violent cult of personal honor that had undergirded South Carolina society since the colonial era.
