{"product_id":"jim-crow-networks-eurie-dahn-9781625345264","title":"Jim Crow Networks: African American Periodical Cultures","description":"Scholars have paid relatively little attention to the highbrow, middlebrow, and popular periodicals that African Americans read and discussed regularly during the Jim Crow era--publications such as the \u003ci\u003eChicago Defender\u003c\/i\u003e, the\u003ci\u003e Crisis\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eEbony\u003c\/i\u003e, and the \u003ci\u003eHalf-Century Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003ci\u003eJim Crow Networks\u003c\/i\u003e considers how these magazines and newspapers, and their authors, readers, advertisers, and editors worked as part of larger networks of activists and thinkers to advance racial uplift and resist racism during the first half of the twentieth century. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs Eurie Dahn demonstrates, authors like James Weldon Johnson, Nella Larsen, William Faulkner, and Jean Toomer wrote in the context of interracial and black periodical networks, which shaped the literature they produced and their concerns about racial violence. This original study also explores the overlooked intersections between the black press and modernist and Harlem Renaissance texts, and highlights key sites where readers and writers worked toward bottom-up sociopolitical changes during a period of legalized segregation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eurie Dahn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1625345267\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781625345264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Massachusetts Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/29\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.79lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2022","brand":"Eurie Dahn","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43978565746943,"sku":"9781625345264","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8dd02bd9-ecb2-49f8-b4b9-012b2c902984.jpg?v=1683242154","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/jim-crow-networks-eurie-dahn-9781625345264","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
