About this product
Product Information
Since the 1960s, most U.S. History has been written as if the civil rights movement were primarily or entirely a Southern history. This book joins a growing body of scholarship that demonstrates the importance of the Northern movement. The contributors make clear that civil rights in NYC were contested in many ways, beginning long before the 1960s, and across many groups with a surprisingly wide range of political perspectives. Taylor provides a sample of the rich historical record of the fight for racial justice in the city that was home to the nation's largest population of African-Americans in mid-twentiethcentury America.

"Clarence Taylor long has been recognized as the most important historian of this nation's most important city: New York. Now he has assembled a veritable "Dream Team" of scholars who contribute their own unique expertise in shedding light on how and why Gotham engaged the critically profound question of Civil Rights in the way it did. This book, as a consequence, is a monumental contribution to the history ofCivil Rights, African-American History, Urban History, Latino History and--most of all--the history of New York City.", Clarence Taylor long has been recognized as the most important historian of this nation's most important city: New York.
