Book excerpt: Poor Gal: The Cultural History of Little Liza Jane chronicles the origins and evolution of a folk tune beloved by millions worldwide. Dan Gutstein delves into the trajectory of the “Liza Jane” family of songs, including the most popular variant “Li’l Liza Jane.” Likely originating among enslaved people on southern plantations, the songs are still performed and recorded centuries later. Evidence for these tunes as part of the repertoire of enslaved people comes from the Works Progress Administration ex-slave narratives that detail a range of lyrics and performance rituals related to “Liza Jane.” Civil War soldiers and minstrel troupes eventually adopted certain variants, including “Goodbye Liza Jane.” This version of the song prospered in the racist environment of burnt cork minstrelsy. Other familiar variants, such as “Little Liza Jane,” likely remained fixed in folk tradition until early twentieth-century sheet music popularized the melody. New genres and a slate of stellar performers broadly adopted these folk songs, bringing the tunes to far-reaching listeners. In 1960, to an audience of more than thirty million viewers, Harry Belafonte performed “Little Liza Jane” on CBS. The song was featured on such popular radio shows as Fibber McGee & Molly; films such as Coquette; and a Mickey Mouse animation. Hundreds of recognizable performers—including Fats Domino, Bing Crosby, Nina Simone, Mississippi John Hurt, and Pete Seeger—embraced the “Liza Jane” family. David Bowie even released “Liza Jane” as his first single. Gutstein documents these famous renditions, as well as lesser-known characters integral to the song’s history. Drawing upon a host of cultural insights from experts—including Eileen Southern, Carl Sandburg, Thomas Talley, LeRoi Jones/Amiri Baraka, Charles Wolfe, Langston Hughes, and Alan Lomax—Gutstein charts the cross-cultural implications of a voyage unlike any other in the history of American folk music.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growing importance of the skilled labor class in Virginia as well as in the entire South is sufficient justification for this essay on The Virginia Negro Artisan and Tradesman. This phase of the Negro problem seems destined to assume greater proportions as Virginia and the Southern States take an inevitably more active part in the future manufacturing activities of the nation. Because of the the lack of more adequate information on this subject there is widespread misunderstanding regarding the progress and the condition of the Negro in the field of the skilled trades of Virginia and the South. -- Preface.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Plantation pedagogy is a form of teaching that draws on human-space relations in an attempt to transform Black and Indigenous peoples as well as land. This mode of education and the formal institutions that encompassed it were integrally tied to enslavement, settlement, and their inherent violence toward land and people. Positioned at a meeting point where Black and Native studies engage each other, this work analyzes the teaching of slavery and settlement in order to understand our interconnected histories and theorize our political struggles and our futures"--
