The Colored Conventions Movement: Black Organizing in the Nineteenth Century: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "The Colored Conventions Movement: Black Organizing in the Nineteenth Century" wrote himself).

This volume of essays is the first to focus on the Colored Conventions movement, the nineteenth centurys longest campaign for Black civil rights. Well before the founding of the NAACP and other twentieth-century pillars of the civil rights movement, tens of thousands of Black leaders organized state and national conventions across North America. Over seven decades, they advocated for social justice and against slavery, protesting state-sanctioned and mob violence while demanding voting, legal, labor, and educational rights. While Black-led activism in this era is often overshadowed by the attention paid to the abolition movement, this collection centers Black activist networks, influence, and institution building. Collectively, these essays highlight the vital role of the Colored Conventions in the lives of thousands of early organizers, including many of the most famous writers, ministers, politicians, and entrepreneurs in the long history of Black activism.
