摘要

摘要:本文向读者介绍了从重建时期至今非裔美国人为争取充分投票权而进行的持续斗争。文章解释了白人至上主义者(错误)利用法律和政治制度以及暴力和经济恐怖主义压制黑人投票权的一些重要方式。文章特别关注非裔美国人为在现代民权运动中获得投票权所做的集体努力,重点介绍了由埃拉-贝克指导的学生非暴力协调委员会(SNCC)的组织工作。虽然许多人将 1965 年《投票权法案》归功于小马丁-路德-金博士和林登-约翰逊总统等知名领袖,但学生非暴力协调委员会的工作人员却深入社区,开展自下而上的组织工作,要求获得投票权,使国家无法继续忽视对黑人权利的暴力压制。文章最后介绍了当代投票权面临的挑战。

The Voting Rights Act beyond the Headlines

Abstract:

This article introduces readers to the ongoing African American struggle for full voting rights from Reconstruction to the present. It explains some of the significant ways white supremacists (mis)used the legal and political system, along with violence and economic terrorism, to suppress the Black vote. The essay gives particular attention to the collective work of African Americans to secure voting rights during the modern Civil Rights Movement, with a focus on the organizing work of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), mentored by Ella Baker. While many people give well-known leaders like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and President Lyndon Johnson credit for the Voting Rights Act of 1965, SNCC workers immersed themselves in communities for bottom-up organizing to demand the vote and make it impossible for the country to continue to ignore the violent suppression of Black rights. The article concludes with contemporary voting rights challenges.

期刊介绍: In the foreword to the first issue of the The Southern Literary Journal, published in November 1968, founding editors Louis D. Rubin, Jr. and C. Hugh Holman outlined the journal"s objectives: "To study the significant body of southern writing, to try to understand its relationship to the South, to attempt through it to understand an interesting and often vexing region of the American Union, and to do this, as far as possible, with good humor, critical tact, and objectivity--these are the perhaps impossible goals to which The Southern Literary Journal is committed." Since then The Southern Literary Journal has published hundreds of essays by scholars of southern literature examining the works of southern writers and the ongoing development of southern culture.
