White fear of black sexuality not only fueled the systems of exclusion and oppression under Jim Crow, she contends it was also a central factor driving white resistance to the civil rights movement. Sex, love, and marriage were in fact the lynchpin of white supremacist fear and ideology. In the course of this gripping and urgent investigation, Dailey examines how white fears played out in the battles over lynching, in criticisms of black troops' behavior overseas in France and England during WWII, in the violent reactions of whites following the Brown v. Board decision, and in the aftermath of the eventual Loving v. Virginia ruling, which finally declared marriage a "fundamental freedom." Placing sex at the center of civil rights history, White Fright offers a bold and insightful new take on one of the darkest threads running through American history"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Miscegenation $z Southern States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Interracial marriage $z Southern States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a African Americans $x Public opinion. $x Public opinion. 650 0 $a African Americans $z Southern States $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Whites $z Southern States $x Attitudes. 650 0 $a White supremacy movements $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a African Americans $x History $z Southern States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Civil rights movements $z Southern States $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Southern States $x Race relations. 651 0 $a Southern States $x Social conditions. 941 $a 9 952 $l KAPF566 $d 20230331014113.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909064238.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220526015307.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20210130011437.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20210105011941.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20201212015836.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20201205010121.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20201202013058.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20201202011816.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=316FB448346E11EB831ACDE824ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
