Reviews
Banks was probably the most important African American in the state where it was hardest to be black at the turn of the century.... [Jackson] challenges the familiar portrayal of the Tuskegee influence as ruthless, conniving, and intolerant of disagreement. - Journal of American History ""Born in Clarksdale, Mississippi, Banks rose to become a retail merchant, bank founder, mill owner, and a founder and leading citizen of the all-black town of Mound Bayou, Mississippi.... A valuable addition to the literature on the 'Wizard of Tuskegee' and those who adhered to his philosophy."" - Journal of Southern History ""With Banks always as its central focus, this work provides rich insight into how Booker Washington obtained and used his influence and reveals much about the inner workings of the Tuskegee Machine."" - Alabama Review ""Jackson provides an invaluable snapshot of a time just before strategies of accommodation proved desperately inadequate."" - H-Education

Synopsis
"An original and informative biography that helps us understand that the American spirit--in its many shades--can never be suppressed."--Maceo Crenshaw Dailey Jr., University of Texas, El Paso "Sound and well argued, readable and engaging. . . . The life and business career of Charles Banks shows Booker T. Washington's racial strategy in action, with all its strengths and weaknesses, as a modus vivendi for the age of segregation."--Louis R. Harlan, professor emeritus, University of Maryland This scholarly biography is the first book-length volume to examine the life and work of Charles Banks, Booker T. Washington's chief "lieutenant" in Mississippi, who became the most consequential African American leader in the state and one of the South's most influential black businessmen in the early decades of the twentieth century. David H. Jackson, Jr., presents a new perspective on Booker T. Washington and the Tuskegee Machine that counters its more familiar image as conniving, heavy-handed, intolerant, and ruthless. In a rare look at the machine's inner workings, the book discusses the benefits of membership and the often-unacknowledged fact that involvement with the machine was mutually beneficial for Washington and his supporters. Jackson argues convincingly that Washington did not keep his key men, "lieutenants" like Charles Banks, on a leash; indeed, his effectiveness depended largely on these figures, who promoted his agenda in various states. Part of Banks's significance was his success in delivering Washington's program in a way that was palatable to blacks in the South--especially in Mississippi, a state historically known for its economic deprivation and racial unrest. The book also presents the first comprehensive golden-age history of Mound Bayou, Mississippi, an all-black township that Banks's business acumen helped shape economically. Contrary to the accommodationist view, Jackson profiles Banks through a constructionist framework to reveal a strong yet conflicted black leader and follower of Washington. His development was shaped by rural poverty, white supremacy, the dominant influence of the philosophy and personal power of Washington, and the concept of the all-black town as a strategy for avoiding some of the worst economic and psychological effects of discrimination. David H. Jackson, Jr. is associate professor of history at Florida A&M University., Charles Banks (1873-1923) was a member of the so-called Tuskegee Machine, a national network of 'lieutenants' who served as Booker T Washington's eyes and ears at the state and local levels., Charles Banks (1873-1923) was a key member of the so-called Tuskegee Machine, a national network of 'lieutenants' who served as Booker T. Washington's eyes and ears at the state and local levels.

- 9***x (40)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufFast shipping. The package was sealed well, but no padding was added to secure the item inside the box. The book's condition was a bit worse than expected. With only a stock photo provided in the listing, a more detailed description of the book's condition should have been provided.
