Through richly drawn four-color illustrations and concise, accessible chapters, Jacobson and ColoÌn convey a history of hardship and hope--a painful and necessary process, full of victories and setbacks, from the Amistad mutiny and the Three-Fifths Compromise to Brown v. Board of Education and the Scottsboro Boys. We see the first African slaves arriving in Jamestown in 1619, watch as the "peculiar institution" undermines our founding ideals, witness the triumph of the Union in the Civil War followed by the collapse of Reconstruction in the South, and observe the hard-won progress of the civil rights movement from the early twentieth century to its contemporary iterations. Jacobson and ColoÌn also explore the pivotal moments in American history with attention to the major contributions of African Americans, reshaping our understanding of the American Revolution, the New Deal, and more. And a series of profiles of prominent African Americans provides key information about these leaders, who exposed injustice, championed freedom, and pushed for change. With vivid illustrations and lucid prose, Three-Fifths a Man brings history to life as only the graphic form can."-- $c Provided by publisher. 520 $a "Traces the long arc of African-American history from the early Atlantic slave trade in the 16th century through the Civil Rights struggle of the late 20th century"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a African Americans $z United States $x History $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE $x African American Studies. $x African American Studies. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a African Americans. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799558 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a Comic books, strips, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423722 655 7 $a Graphic novels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726630 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Graphic novels. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a ColoÌn, Ernie, $e illustrator. 941 $a 2 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006112539.0 952 $l HWAX074 $d 20180522010816.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8823915A5D8511E8A114072A97128E48 994 $a Z0 $b UIIInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
