Download or read book Warren Clay Coleman the Leader of the First Black Textile Mill in America written by Norman J. McCullough Sr. B.A M.A. and published by Xlibris Us. This book was released on 2019-12-31 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warren C Coleman, a son of Concord, N.C., was born a slave, like so many former slaves, born in the South, destined to do nothing but survive and/ or limit his contribution to society only as a chattel slave. Several other books have been written about Coleman, including a master's thesis by Marvin Krieger in 1969, Warren Clay Coleman, Promoter of the Black Cotton Mill... However, my book is the first book written exclusively about Coleman by an African-American and a member of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion community. From this perspective, my book, highlighting the lives of his "white" family hopefully can be a celebration of the life and times of a man (Coleman) before his time. Men like Frederick Douglass, Booker T. Washington, Bishop. J.W. Hood, Dr. Joseph C. Price, W.E. B. Dubois and many others too numerous to mention, who made America what it is today and who are often unknown and unsung.
Download or read book We are All Leaders written by Staughton Lynd and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We Are All Leaders" describes a kind of union qualitatively different from the bureaucratic business unions that make up the AFL-CIO today. From African American nutpickers in St. Louis, chemical and rubber workers in Akron, textile workers in the South, and bootleg miners in Pennsylvania to tenant farmers in the Mississippi Delta, packinghouse and garment workers in Minnesota, seamen in San Francisco, and labor party campaigns throughout the country, workers in the 1930s were experimenting with community-based unionism. Contributors to this volume draw on interviews with participants in the events described, first-person narratives, trade union documents, and other primary sources to tell what workers of the 1930s did. The alternative unionism of the 1930s was democratic, deeply rooted in mutual aid among workers in different crafts and work sites, and politically independent. The key to it was a value system based on egalitarianism. The cry, "We are all leaders " resonated among rank-and-file activists. Their struggle, often ignored by historians, has much to teach us today about union organizing. CONTRIBUTORS: Rosemary Feurer, Peter Rachleff, Janet Irons, Mark D.

Download or read book The Rise of Cotton Mills in the South written by Broadus Mitchell and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2001 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE FIRST FULL-LENGTH ACCOUNT of the advent of the cotton-textile industry in the region, The Rise of Cotton Mills in the South immediately defined industrialization in the rural South upon its publication in 1921. Its influence was widely felt by southern intellectuals and shaped the interpretation of southern industrialization in many ways. Broadus Mitchell's idealistic chronicle of the southern textile industry founders reads as a progressive's endorsement of a southern industrial revolution from above, to elevate the South from its economic and cultural doldrums. Mitchell viewed industrialization as necessary for southern progress and believed that its benefits to the South ultimately reached far beyond its profits to mill owners. In a lengthy introduction, David L. Carlton further explores the life and economic philosophies of Mitchell - giving a sturdy framework to this history and reinforcing it as a valuable assessment of a historical moment.
