Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Committee of Merchants for the Relief of Colored People: Suffering From the Late Riots in the City of New York The Executive Committee appointed for the relief of the colored people of New York and the adjacent places, having in a great measure concluded the work assigned to them, would respectfully report to the General Committee appointed by the merchants of New York, and to the contributors to the fund placed at their disposal, that the total amount received to date is $40,779 08-100, as will appear by the statement of the Treasurer, Mr. Jonathan Sturges. That this sum of money was sent to the Treasurer by the contributors in prompt response to the simple announcement that it would be needed. That no special appeals were necessary to urge subscriptions, and consequently no commissions were paid to collectors. Of this amount, $27,795.56 has already been expended. The balance, $12,983 52, which the Committee have on hand, they expect to use in protecting those who have lost their property in the late riots, in the prosecuting of their claims against the city, in providing for the widows, orphans, and other dependent members of the families of those who were killed, and in such other ways as they may find will do the most good. Two methods of action presented themselves to your committee. First; to refrain from relieving any one, until a personal visit had been made to ascertain the facts of the case. Second; to afford some immediate aid upon the best information that could be obtained from the persons applying for assistance, or through the colored pastors we employed. The first would possibly save us from some imposition; the second would afford instant relief which was absolutely necessary, would afford instant relief, which was absolutely necessary. After fully considering the two plans, we adopted both; the immediate relief plan, and that of personal examination through the colored pastors, and the visitors of the association for the relief of the poor.

Download or read book The Grammar of Good Intentions written by Susan M. Ryan (Ph. D.) and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Susan M. Ryan explores antebellum Americans' preoccupation with the language and practice of benevolence. Drawing on a variety of cultural and literary texts, she traces how people working and writing within social reform movements--and their outspoken opponents--helped solidify racial and class ideologies that ultimately marginalized even the most "deserving" poor. "The links between race and the relations of benevolence occasioned much soul-searching among antebellum Americans," Ryan explains. "In a period of heated public debate over issues such as slavery, Indian removal, and non-Protestant immigration, the categories of blackness, Indianness, and a generic 'foreignness' came to signify, for many whites, need itself." Ryan puts familiar literary works such as Herman Melville's The Confidence-Man, Frederick Douglass's My Bondage and My Freedom, and Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin back into dialogue with a broad range of print materials: the reports of charity societies, African American and Native American newspapers, juvenile fiction, travel writing, cartoons, sermons, and tract literature. In the process, she dispels the myth that authors usually classified as literary were responding to a simple and unquestioned cult of benevolence. Rather, she contends, they were participating in the complex and often rancorous debates occurring within the broader culture over how good intentions should be expressed and enacted.Ryan's inquiry into the antebellum culture of benevolence has implications for contemporary U.S. society, resonating especially with recent debates over welfare reform, the politics of compassionate conservatism, and representations of "welfare queens" and violent urban youth. As Ryan writes, "The conversations that this book reconstructs remind us of our ongoing participation in the national ritual of laying claim to good intentions."

Download or read book The Black Fives written by Claude Johnson and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2022-05-24 with total page 710 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Black Fives is a groundbreaking, timely history of the largely unknown early days of Black basketball, bringing to life the trailblazing players, teams, and impresarios who pioneered the sport. “For a game that has meant so much to the world, Claude Johnson somehow presents a definitive account for a part of basketball’s history that for so long was kept away from us. Claude is a superhero storyteller, and this book is a bona fide superpower.” —Justin Tinsley, author of It Was All a Dream: Biggie and the World That Made Him From the introduction of the game of basketball to Black communities on a wide scale in 1904 to the racial integration of the NBA in 1950, dozens of African American teams were founded and flourished. This period, known as the Black Fives Era (teams at the time were often called “fives”), was a time of pioneering players and managers. They battled discrimination and marginalization and created culturally rich, socially meaningful events. But despite headline-making rivalries between big-city clubs, barnstorming tours across the country, innovative business models, and undeniably talented players, this period is almost entirely unknown to basketball fans. Claude Johnson has made it his mission to change that. An advocate fiercely committed to our history, for more than two decades Johnson has conducted interviews, mined archives, collected artifacts, and helped to preserve this historically important African American experience that otherwise would have been lost. This essential book is the result of his work, a landmark narrative history that braids together the stories of these forgotten pioneers and rewrites our understanding of the story of basketball.
