Charles R. Drew
Also known as: Charles Richard Drew, Charles Drew, Dr. Charles R. Drew
Surgeon and blood researcher Charles Richard Drew was the eldest of five children. He was born on June 3, 1904, in Washington, D.C., to Richard T. Drew, a carpet layer, and Nora (Burrell) Drew, a school teacher and graduate of Miner Teachers College. As a student, Drew excelled in academics and sports, winning four swimming medals by the age of eight. In 1922 he graduated from Paul Laurence Dunbar High School, where he received the James E. Walker Memorial Medal in his junior and senior years for his athletic performance in several sports, including football, basketball, baseball, and track. Drew attended Amherst College in Western Massachusetts on an athletic scholarship. He would be one of 16 black students to graduate from Amherst during the years 1920 to 1929. He served as captain of the track team; he was enormously popular and was awarded several honors, including the Thomas W. Ashley Memorial Trophy for being the football team's most valuable player. Although Drew was a gifted athlete, he worked hard in school to keep high grades. By the time he graduated in 1926, he had decided to apply to medical school. However, his funds were severely limited. Before he could go to medical school, he had to work for a couple of years. He accepted a job at Morgan State College in Baltimore, Maryland, as a professor of chemistry and biology, as well as director of the college's sports program. During the next two years, he paid off his undergraduate loans and put some money aside for medical school.

http://www.core-online.org/history/freedom_summer.htm
Freedom Summer Three CORE Members murdered in Mississippi Freedom Summer was a highly publicized campaign in the Deep South to register blacks to vote during the summer of 1964. During the summer of 1964, thousands of civil rights activists, many of them white college students from the North, descended on Mississippi and other Southern states to try to end the long-time political disenfranchisement of African Americans in the region. Although black men had won the right to vote in 1870, thanks to the Fifteenth Amendment, for the next 100 years many were unable to exercise that right. White local and state officials systematically kept blacks from voting through formal methods, such as poll taxes and literacy tests, and through cruder methods of fear and intimidation, which included beatings and lynchings. The inability to vote was only one of many problems blacks encountered in the racist society around them, but the civil-rights officials who decided to zero in on voter registration understood its crucial significance as well the white supremacists did. An African American voting bloc would be able to effect social and political change. Freedom Summer marked the climax of intensive voter-registration activities in the South that had started in 1961. Organizers chose to focus their efforts on Mississippi because of the state's particularly dismal voting-rights record: in 1962 only 6.7 percent of African Americans in the state were registered to vote, the lowest percentage in the country. The Freedom Summer campaign was organized by a coalition called the Mississippi Council of Federated Organizations, which was led by the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE), and included the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC). By mobilizing volunteer white college students from the North to join them, the coalition scored a major public relations coup as hundreds of reporters came to Mississippi from around the country to cover the voter-registration campaign.

http://www.gnxp.com/MT2/archives/000809.html
Main July 29, 2003 Only blacks can teach black history? This article about a protest over a white teacher possibly teaching black history in the Cleveland area is pretty high in blogdex , so there's a large amount of commentary out there if you want to look. I find it pretty freaky, I do understand that a black teacher probably has some insights into black history that a white teacher could not give, but the reaction is highly disproportionate to the problem in my opinion. This echoes something I saw on CSPAN a month ago, where Diane Ravitch was promoting her new book The Language Police: How Pressure Groups Restrict What Students Learn Losing the Race and in Authentically Black . McWhorter recalls how some of his black linguistics buddies in grad school teased him for picking a topic relating to Russian dialects to do a presentation on, when he should have perhaps focused on Carribean pidgins or something "more appropriate." He also criticizes well educated blacks like Randall Robinson who have contempt for classical learning that they consider "Eurocentric" but offer little in the way of alternatives [1]. More broadly interpreted, this gets to a topic that serves as part of Bernard Lewis' overall thesis expressed in

Friday, February 6, 2004 Projects boost black history
By Jennifer Mrozowski
The Cincinnati Enquirer
To make black history come alive, Greater Cincinnati teachers are bringing in singers, doing art projects from a slave's perspective and writing letters to historical icons . It's an effort to go beyond the textbooks - particularly during Black History Month, which began this week. "What tends to happen is history is written by the victors," said Mario Basora, a social studies teacher at Princeton High School. "History books have been written by those who have won the wars - European males." That history tends to leave out contributions by women and minorities, he said. So more teachers are working to make sure more black history is covered: Basora, who teaches a black cultures class at Princeton, said today's history textbooks cover the settlement of the American frontier with tales about Daniel Boone and others, but they leave out the contributions of groups such as the Buffalo soldiers. The Buffalo soldiers, many of whom served in black units in the Civil War, were black U.S. army regiments that patrolled the West, mapped parts of the Southwest and repaired frontier outposts after the war.

    William R. Harvey
    Educational administrator William Robert Harvey was born on January 29, 1941, in Brewton, Alabama, to Mamie Claudis and Willie D.C. Harvey. Brewton, like many Southern towns in the early 1940s, was heavily segregated and African Americans who lived there found that opportunities for education and advancement were often scarce. Harvey's father, however, overcame the adversities of segregation and became a prosperous entrepreneur in the construction business. Willie Harvey also stressed that it was his education that allowed him to get a foothold in an inhospitable town such as Brewton, and it was his example that cemented in Harvey's mind the need for education to ensure success. During high school, Harvey did not just succeed academically, but he also thrived at football and basketball and as the business manager of the school newspaper. Combined with his academic excellence, Harvey soon found numerous colleges offering him academic scholarships. Sought Career in Educational Administration Choosing to stay close to home, Harvey enrolled at Talladega College in 1957. During his time at Talledaga he took part in the civil rights movement, hoping to get small towns like Brewton free from segregation. In 1961 he graduated from Talladega with a bachelors degree in history and instead of going to teach as he had originally planned, he joined the U.S. Army to fight in Vietnam in 1962. Harvey served in the army for three years, and upon his return to the United States he joined the army reserves. He would be an active member of the group for the next 30 years, achieving the rank of lieutenant colonel in 1981, before finally receiving a discharge into inactive status.

    The History of African-Americans in White by Ann Waterman PART 1 - INTRODUCTION Nursing has a long and well chronicled history but that history is sadly lacking in information about the early African-American nurses. As a nursing educator I chose to do this project to enlighten myself and others regarding the history of African-American nurses to better understand their educational struggles and their achievements in the nursing profession. I thought my own historical knowledge about nursing history in general was adequate. But as I reviewed in my mind the historically famous nurses that were taught about in my nursing programs and that I have since read about in nursing journals I find they have been all Caucasian with the exception of the first black American nurse that graduated from a school of nursing in 1879. Many of the early books I researched, those written between 1943 and 1967, contained one or more paragraphs to at most two pages about the early history of African-American nurses. Even the book entitled The Historical Development of Nursing- Emphasizing the Cultural Background of the Race and the Influence of Philosophy and Religion on the Healing Arts by Sister Charles Marie Frank, written in 1952, contained only one and one-half pages of text and two pictures related to African-American nurses and their history. Unfortunately the rich history of African-American nurses was not recorded in any of the history books that were published in these early years. I was able to find two wonderful books written by African-American nurses that chronicled the rich, full history of African-American nurses. I have contacted many African-American nurses in Columbus and these two books were suggested to me by several nurses and by the recruiter and director of minority students for Mount Carmel College of Nursing, Kathy Epsy.
