White led two lives: one as a leader of the Harlem Renaissance and the NAACP in the early twentieth century, the other as a white newspaperman who covered lynching crimes in the Deep South at the blazing height of racial violence. Born mixed race and with very fair skin and straight hair, White was able to "pass" for white. He leveraged this ambiguity as a reporter, bringing to light the darkest crimes in America and helping to plant the seeds of the civil rights movement. White's risky career led him to lead a double life. He was simultaneously a second-class citizen subject to Jim Crow laws at home and a widely respected professional with full access to the white world at work. His life was fraught with internal and external conflict--much like the story of race in America. 541 $d 20220624. 600 1 $a White, Walter $d 1893-1955. 610 2 $a National Association for the Advancement of Colored People $v Biography. 650 $a African Americans $v Biography. 650 $a African Americans $x Race identity $v Case studies. 650 $a Civil rights workers $z United States $v Biography. 655 7 $a Audiobooks. 941 $a 1 952 $l NYPE343 $d 20221202012110.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1C1103FA720F11EDB6E4AA0447ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
