{"product_id":"white-liberal-col-president-in-sandra-e-godwin-9780881467901","title":"White Liberal Col President in","description":"A WHITE LIBERAL COLLEGE PRESIDENT IN THE JIM CROW SOUTH is a historical narrative that explores the inner turmoil of a college president who positioned himself between two opposing political ideologies. The Young Women's Christian Association represented one side and governors, state board members, judges, and other powerful anti-black groups represented the other. Guy Herbert Wells, president of Georgia State College for (white) Women, learned to manage the tension between holding true to his own values, which more closely resembled those of students in the YWCA, while working for a state system that upheld white supremacy. A 1935 YWCA interracial event became the catalyst for his first lesson on how to manage this tension. Using archival data from Georgia College (formerly Georgia State College for Women) and the YWCA, Godwin tracks Wells's positioning and identifies the motivation of his political movements right and left.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sandra E.
