Praise for The Black Cabinet : "A well-researched, urgent, and necessary history of black folks during the New Deal that excavates the too often ignored history of black female genius behind racial progress." --Michael Eric Dyson, New York Times bestselling author "Jill Watts' timely, deeply absorbing narrative unravels the little known but highly significant behind-the scenes account of Franklin D. Roosevelt's unofficial Black Cabinet, and their relentless determination that New Deal socio-economic justice include Black Americans. The voices of the historical actors come right through the pages and give a flavor to the narrative as though you were actually on the scene. . . A powerful piece of scholarship and a great story."-- Margaret Washington, author of Sojourner Truth's America, Praise for The Black Cabinet : "Fascinating . . . revealing the hidden figures of a ''brain trust'' that lobbied, hectored and strong-armed President Franklin Roosevelt to cut African Americans in on the New Deal . . . Meticulously researched and elegantly written, The Black Cabinet is sprawling and epic, and Watts deftly re-creates whole scenes from archival material."-- Minneapolis Star Tribune "Watts is . . . at her best when she gives a frank accounting of the barriers the Black Cabinet encountered. Again and again its members pushed for a desperately needed reform, only to have it rejected -- or simply ignored -- by an administration much more interested in appeasing the segregationist South . . . The value of this thoughtful book [is] clear."-- New York Times Book Review "Meticulously researched and beautifully written . . . This absorbing look at a pivotal point in civil rights activity before the 1950s and ''60s is well done and should be of interest to us all."-- BookPage "A unique and enlightening portrait . . . [ The Black Cabinet ] is a groundbreaking reappraisal of an unheralded chapter in the battle for civil rights."-- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Drawing on government documents, newspapers, and an extensive number of archives, historian Watts vividly recounts an important chapter in black American history."-- Kirkus Reviews "A well-researched, urgent, and necessary history of black folks during the New Deal that excavates the too often ignored history of black female genius behind racial progress." --Michael Eric Dyson, New York Times bestselling author of What Truth Sounds Like "Jill Watts'' timely, deeply absorbing narrative unravels the little known but highly significant behind-the scenes account of Franklin D. Roosevelt''s unofficial Black Cabinet, and their relentless determination that New Deal socio-economic justice include Black Americans. The voices of the historical actors come right through the pages and give a flavor to the narrative as though you were actually on the scene. . . A powerful piece of scholarship and a great story."-- Margaret Washington, author of Sojourner Truth''s America "My great-uncle Frank Horne, a poet, a doctor and an educator, was a member of FDR''s so-called ''Black Cabinet.'' For the first time, this fascinating new book tells the whole story of the victories and defeats of these brilliant black New Dealers and the dynamic, charismatic black woman, Mary McLeod Bethune, who was their leader."-- Gail Lumet Buckley, author of The Black Calhouns: From Civil War to Civil Rights with One African American Family "Jill Watts here tells stories of the fascinating characters who formed what has been nicknamed the ''Black Cabinet'' of FDR. Making her subjects come alive for the reader, she portrays them as courageous individuals motivated by a combination of personal ambition and principled devotion to the cause of black rights, which the New Deal by no means embraced with enthusiasm. These crusaders paved the way for the political transformation of the African-American community from Republican to Democrat, and prefigured the Black Civil Rights Movement."-- Daniel Walker Howe, author of Pulitzer-Prize winning, What Hath God Wrought: The Transformation of America, 1815-1848 "Watts'' compelling account of a diverse set of early twentieth-century public figures--with the remarkable Mary McLeod Bethune at the center--who labored to make the Federal Government work for and be accountable to African Americans is important and timely. One comes away from this deeply researched and engaging narrative with a rich and textured sense of the work the members of the Black Cabinet accomplished in the decades before the modern Civil Rights Movement and the stakes and significance of their efforts."-- Judith Weisenfeld, author of New World A-Coming: Black Religion and Racial Identity during the Great Migration, Praise for The Black Cabinet : "A well-researched, urgent, and necessary history of black folks during the New Deal that excavates the too often ignored history of black female genius behind racial progress." --Michael Eric Dyson, New York Times bestselling author

Synopsis
In 1932 in the midst of the Great Depression, Franklin Delano Roosevelt won the presidency with the help of key African American defectors from the Republican Party. At the time, most African Americans lived in poverty, denied citizenship rights and terrorized by white violence. As the New Deal began, a "black Brain Trust" joined the administration and began documenting and addressing the economic hardship and systemic inequalities African Americans faced. They became known as the Black Cabinet, but the environment they faced was reluctant, often hostile, to change. "Will the New Deal be a square deal for the Negro?" The black press wondered. The Black Cabinet set out to devise solutions to the widespread exclusion of black people from its programs, whether by inventing tools to measure discrimination or by calling attention to the administration's failures. Led by Mary McLeod Bethune, an educator and friend of Eleanor Roosevelt, they were instrumental to Roosevelt's continued success with black voters. Operating mostly behind the scenes, they helped push Roosevelt to sign an executive order that outlawed discrimination in the defense industry. They saw victories--jobs and collective agriculture programs that lifted many from poverty--and defeats--the bulldozing of black neighborhoods to build public housing reserved only for whites; Roosevelt's refusal to get behind federal anti-lynching legislation. The Black Cabinet never won official recognition from the president, and with his death, it disappeared from view. But it had changed history. Eventually, one of its members would go on to be the first African American Cabinet secretary; another, the first African American federal judge and mentor to Thurgood Marshall. Masterfully researched and dramatically told, The Black Cabinet brings to life a forgotten generation of leaders who fought post-Reconstruction racial apartheid and whose work served as a bridge that Civil Rights activists traveled to achieve the victories of the 1950s and '60s., A magnificently researched, dramatically told work of narrative nonfiction about the history, evolution, impact, and ultimate demise of what was known in the 1930s and 1940s as President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's Black Cabinet., A magnificently researched, dramatically told work of narrative nonfiction about the history, evolution, impact, and ultimate demise of what was known in the 1930s and 1940s as President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's Black Cabinet.
