Beyond the Burning Bus: The Civil Rights Revolution in a Southern Town
ISBN: 9781603060103 / Angielski / Miękka / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Anniston, Alabama, is a small industrial city between Birmingham and Atlanta.

In response to that incident, a few black and white leaders in Anniston took a progressive view that desegregation was inevitable and that it was better to unite the community than to divide it. To that end, the city created a biracial Human Relations Council which set about to quietly dismantle Jim Crow segregation laws and customs. This was such a novel notion in George Wallace's...

Racialization and Religion: Race, Culture and Difference in the Study of Antisemitism and Islamophobia
ISBN: 9780415715010 / Angielski / Twarda / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

By harnessing the explanatory power of long-established organizing concepts within the study of race and racism, this collection of articles makes a historically informed, theoretical and empirical contribution to aligning these analytical pursuits. The collection brings together...
