- Double-weighted statement
- This book offers an innovative study of the USA’s oldest civil rights organisation to explore and identify cultural strategies. It resulted from nine years of research, including periods supported by an AHRC doctoral award and a Kluge-Library of Congress fellowship. The monograph is based primarily on researching extensive NAACP archival records from which thousands of items were selected and consulted, including manuscripts, pamphlets, and broadsides. The book also draws on the personal papers of key NAACP figures and cultural and artistic sources from plays and paintings to motion pictures and novels extending beyond a fifty-year chronological span.
