Selling Black History for Carter G. Woodson

In the summer of 1930, Lorenzo Johnston Greene, a graduate of Howard University and a doctoral candidate at Columbia University, became a book agent for the man with the undisputed title of "Father of Negro History," Carter G.

The Early Black History Movement, Carter G. Woodson, and Lorenzo Johnston Greene

The men who launched and shaped black studies This book examines the lives, work, and contributions of two of the most important figures of the early black history movement, Carter G. Woodson and Lorenzo Johnston Greene. Drawing on the two men's personal papers as well as the materials of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History (ASNLH), Pero Gaglo Dagbovie probes the struggles, sacrifices, and achievements of these black history pioneers. The book offers the first major examination of Greene's life. Equally important, it also addresses a variety of issues pertaining to Woodson that other scholars have either overlooked or ignored, including his image in popular and scholarly writings and memory, the democratic approach of the ASNLH, and the pivotal role of women in the association.

The Negro in Colonial New England

"This was the first general work on the role of Black slaves in colonial New England. It remains a classic in the field. The author covers approximately one hundred and fifty years and embraces all of the New England colonies. A survey of New England's slave trade and the sale of Blacks in its slave markets is followed by a discussion of the social, political and economic repercussions of the buying and selling of slaves upon Puritan institutions. Greene's contribution to the fuller understanding of colonial America centers primarily on the African slave trade and the varied occupational role of the New England slave in the colonial period"--Amazon, viewed March 6, 2021.
