Download or read book The Social Gospel in Black and White written by Ralph E. Luker and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2000-11-09 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a major revision of accepted wisdom, this book, originally published by UNC Press in 1991, demonstrates that American social Christianity played an important role in racial reform during the period between Emancipation and the civil rights movement. As organizations created by the heirs of antislavery sentiment foundered in the mid-1890s, Ralph Luker argues, a new generation of black and white reformers--many of them representatives of American social Christianity--explored a variety of solutions to the problem of racial conflict. Some of them helped to organize the Federal Council of Churches in 1909, while others returned to abolitionist and home missionary strategies in organizing the NAACP in 1910 and the National Urban League in 1911. A half century later, such organizations formed the institutional core of America's civil rights movement. Luker also shows that the black prophets of social Christianity who espoused theological personalism created an influential tradition that eventually produced Martin Luther King Jr.
Download or read book Cheap Amusements written by Kathy Peiss and published by Temple University Press. This book was released on 1986 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What did young, independent women do for fun and how did they pay their way into New York City's turn-of-the-century pleasure places? Cheap Amusements is a fascinating discussion of young working women whose meager wages often fell short of bare subsistence and rarely allowed for entertainment expenses. Kathy Peiss follows working women into saloons, dance halls, Coney Island amusement parks, social clubs, and nickelodeons to explore the culture of these young women between 1880 and 1920 as expressed in leisure activities. By examining the rituals and styles they adopted and placing that culture in the larger context of urban working-class life, she offers us a complex picture of the dynamics shaping a working woman's experience and consciousness at the turn-of-the-century. Not only does her analysis lead us to new insights into working-class culture, changing social relations between single men and women, and urban courtship, but it also gives us a fuller understanding of the cultural transformations that gave rise to the commercialization of leisure. The early twentieth century witnessed the emergence of "heterosocial companionship" as a dominant ideology of gender, affirming mixed-sex patterns of social interaction, in contrast to the nineteenth century's segregated spheres. Cheap Amusements argues that a crucial part of the "reorientation of American culture" originated from below, specifically in the subculture of working women to be found in urban dance halls and amusement resorts.

Download or read book Social Profit Canvas written by Marc Vermeulen and published by African Sun Media. This book was released on 2022-03-09 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organizations in the public domain must be of value for the citizen, being a tenant, client, patient, student, etc. Foundations, corporations, associations, they all have the intention to make social profit and avoid financial loss. What is the real value and how do these organizations contribute? Social profit and value, that is where this book is about. We present a new method to visualize and assess this profit. The Social Profit Canvas aims to empower two things: increase result and impact, and effect a change towards a ‘bottom-up-approach’. This book will lead and support professionals in the sector to achieve these goals. Marc Vermeulen and Anke Vroomen describe the developments in the public domain and explore the use of the Social Profit Canvas model, including measuring and decision making in respect of public value. The Social Profit Canvas is developed together with Mark Wolbert and Jaap Hoenderdos from WHISE (company for social profit creation) based on their practical experience combined with the scientific knowledge of TIAS (School for Business and Society).
