Book Rhetoric  Religion and the Civil Rights Movement  1954 1965

Download or read book Rhetoric Religion and the Civil Rights Movement 1954 1965 written by Davis W. Houck and published by Baylor University Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 1013 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: V.2: Building upon their critically acclaimed first volume, Davis W. Houck and David E. Dixon's new Rhetoric, Religion, and the Civil Rights Movement, 1954-1965 is a recovery project of enormous proportions. Houck and Dixon have again combed church archives, government documents, university libraries, and private collections in pursuit of the civil rights movement's long-buried eloquence. Their new work presents fifty new speeches and sermons delivered by both famed leaders and little-known civil rights activists on national stages and in quiet shacks. The speeches carry novel insights into the ways in which individuals and communities utilized religious rhetoric to upset the racial status quo in divided America during the civil rights era. Houck and Dixon's work illustrates again how a movement so prominent in historical scholarship still has much to teach us. (Publisher).
