Their significance in challenging segregation has been underrepresented in scholarly works. These students played a crucial role in bringing the end of legal segregation and in reducing hiring discrimination. While activists proceeded from campus to lunch counters for sit-ins, their actions also represented a counter to businesspersons and politicians seeking to preserve a segregationist view of Tar Heel hospitality. The book demonstrates how academic freedom ideas gave additional ideological force to the civil rights movement and garnered support from "Research Triangle" schools North Carolina State College, Duke University, and The University of North Carolina. Many students from the "Protest Triangle" (the author's term for activists at the three HBCUs) and the "Research Triangle" viewed efforts by politicians to thwart protest participation as restrictions of their academic freedom. Despite the rich historiography on the civil rights movement and scholarly works addressing academic freedom, their connections have gone mostly unexplored. Suttell utilized extensive archival research and conducted thirty-one interviews with activists and Raleigh and Durham community members, in addition to nationally recognized civil rights leaders like Andrew Young and Wyatt Tee Walker. -- $c Back cover. 505 00 $a Machine generated contents note: $g 8. $t Conclusion: The Legacy of the "Protest Triangle" Activists. $g 2. $t Education, Activism, and Academic Freedom in Historical Context -- $g 3. $t Academic Freedom and the 1960 Sit-ins -- $g 4. $t The "Protest Triangle" and the 1960 Youth Leadership Conference at Shaw University -- $g 5. $t Education vs. Segregation: The 1960 Gubernatorial Election and The Reaction to the Sit-Ins -- $g 6. $t Campus to Counter -- $g 7. $t Local, National, and International Connections -- $g 8. $t Conclusion: The Legacy of the "Protest Triangle" Activists. 650 0 $a African American college students $x History $z North Carolina $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a African American student movements $z North Carolina $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Civil rights demonstrations $z North Carolina $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Civil rights movements $z Raleigh $z Raleigh $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Civil rights movements $z Durham $z Durham $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a African Americans $z Raleigh $z Raleigh $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a African Americans $z Durham $z Durham $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Segregation $z Raleigh $z Raleigh $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Segregation $z Durham $z Durham $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Academic freedom $z North Carolina $x History $y 20th century. 650 7 $a Academic freedom. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00794987 650 7 $a African American college students $x Political activity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799107 650 7 $a African American student movements. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799374 650 7 $a African Americans. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799558 650 7 $a Civil rights demonstrations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00862704 650 7 $a Civil rights movements. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00862708 650 7 $a Segregation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01111205 651 7 $a North Carolina. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204304 651 7 $a North Carolina $z Durham. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01207378 651 7 $a North Carolina $z Raleigh. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206341 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 830 0 $a America's historically Black colleges and universities. 941 $a 2 952 $l ZKPC437 $d 20240227010847.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117014833.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=42BCB4DA0CD411EEAAE9666853ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
