Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In the 1960s, students of Spelman College, a black liberal arts college for women, were drawn into historic civil rights protests occurring across Atlanta, leading to the arrest of some for participating in sitins in the local community. A young Howard Zinn (future author of the worldwide best seller A Peoples History of the United States) was a professor of history at Spelman during this era and served as an adviser to the Atlanta sitin movement and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC). Zinn mentored many of Spelmans students fighting for civil rights at the time, including Alice Walker and Marian Wright Edelman.As a key facilitator of the Spelman student movement, Zinn supported students who challenged and criticized the campuss paternalistic social restrictions, even when this led to conflicts with the Spelman administration. Zinns involvement with the Atlanta student movement and his closeness to Spelmans leading student and faculty activists gave him an insiders view of that movement and of the political and intellectual world of Spelman, Atlanta University, and the SNCC.Robert Cohen presents a thorough historical overview as well as an entre to Zinns diary. One of the most extensive records of the political climate on a historically black college in 1960s America, Zinns diary offers an indepth view. It is a fascinating historical document of the free speech, academic freedom, and student rights battles that rocked Spelman and led to Zinns dismissal from the college in 1963 for supporting the student movement.
