    The Black Leaders of the 1890s-1920s lived in a very different America, one with universal segregation, strictly enforced vagrancy laws, fully segregated schools, and widespread hostility toward Blacks. Thus, the Black leaders of this time period had to not attempt to challenge the oppressive system to have any hope of communicating their ideas without subjugation. The Black leaders of the 1950s-1960s took a more confrontational approach, one allowed to them by the achievements of the Black leaders before them. They sought to directly challenge southern segregation and dismantle the system of systematic oppression under which they lived.…

    The plight of the African American has been exceptionally brutal and generationally consequential in the United States. Africans Americans were brought over to this country by force as slaves and remained enslaved for centuries and after they achieved freedom in 1865 they continually struggled through the Reconstruction period and even beyond the Civil Right period with a system of written and unwritten laws in America that kept them oppressed and made it nearly impossible to control their destiny’s. Shortly after slavery ended, many black leaders arose that had differing strategies for how African American people could strategically achieve equality in the United States. Booker. T Washington, the most influential black leader of his time,…

    If African American leaders in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries agreed on any one point, it would be thus: the problem of the times was the problem of race relations. W.E.B. DuBois called it the “problem of the color-line,” and Fredrick Douglass the “race problem,” but no matter the name, the plague of the period was the enmity between white Americans and black Americans (vii; 5). The Talented Tenth, however, did not always agree on how best to advocate for greater inclusion and equality for black people…

    Shortly after the end of World War II, America was faced with a new, domestic issue: The Civil Rights Movement. Although the movement began much earlier than this, it wasn’t brought to America’s priority until the war ended. The Supreme Court’s decision in Brown vs. The Board of Education case sparked the attention of many Americans to the struggle for school integration. This court decision then started an entire civil rights crusade that would change social life in America forever. Such a significant cause needed very strong and dedicated leaders, and no one else best fit those positions than Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X. While both leaders strove to reach the same goal of racial equality, the two had very different methods in which they endeavored…

    A fourth emerging theme I present in this paper is my identification of what I am calling “leadership straddler’s.” I use a study by Prudence Carter (2006) that desired to challenge the findings by Fordham and Ogbu’s (1986) proposed “acting white” theory by black students in regards to educational performance in schools to inform my idea. Carter focused on how both black and Latino low-socioeconomic (SES) students navigate performance in the classroom juxtapose with peer group interaction. She identified three type of ideological perspective carried out by the youth in her study: (1) the cultural mainstreamers, the noncompliant believers, and the cultural straddlers. For the purpose of my work I focus on Carter’s identification of “cultural straddlers.”…

    Although the current U.S. Secretary of Education John King Jr., champions his predecessor Arne Duncan’s theory that the increased presence of African American male teachers, as he often repeats the statistic that only 2 percent of our nation’s teachers are African-American men; his argument falls short as the failing of Black boys is not solely because of the race of their teachers; but also, due to their struggle with the adverse effects of poverty, the inequitable distribution of resources across communities, and the criminalization of black men inside and outside of schools. The reality is while African American male teachers can serve as powerful role models, they cannot fix the problems of minority students, most of which they face themselves;…

    Overall, in this chapter I develop the elements of my identification of what I am calling equity leadership-straddlers. Again, I both build and extend on Carter’s (2006) work on cultural straddlers to my study of school leaders. Carter’s (2006) identified cultural straddlers as students of color and of low-SES who are able to both successfully navigate the school institution while with maintaining their own cultural identity. In this chapter, I identify and describe the five emerging elements that characterize a leadership-straddler position: (a) code-switching, (b) social interaction with adults (i.e., parents and teachers), (c) successful navigation of schooling, (d) conveyance of straddler skills to students, and (e) ethical wisdom. In particular,…

    The early 1900’s were a pivotal time in American and black history. The Great Migration in response to booming industrial era, would see black’s contributing more economically, and in war time battles. In knowing that such trappings would not last forever, black leadership would be more important than ever to ensure that black Americans would not fall by the wayside once again in the aftermath. Two leaders, the already known Booker T. Washington, and the new literary intellectualist W.E.B. Du Bois, would work in their own ways to pursue the needs of black Americans. Washington and Du Bios had individual t approaches to the social, economic and political problems faced by black Americans, however both black leaders played necessary and important…

    I interviewed an African American coworker, or as it happened, was more a discussion about the current state of the inclusion of minorities in America and more specifically the inclusion of African Americans in the workforce. The coworker I interviewed is in his early 30s, an 11 year military veteran, and is currently working on his second masters, which is an MBA. As mentioned previously, he is of African American decent and the only minority working in our office, which is made up of twenty two white males. He was raised by his grandmother from a young age after his father left him and his mother was unable to care for him. During his childhood, he lived in a predominately black neighborhood in the city of Pittsburgh.…

    The main idea of the book I choose the book “Act like a leader, think like a leader, by Herminia Ibarra, which is inspirational read for everyone who has a passion for leading. Ibarra, redefines the traditional leadership notion of “think first, and then act’’ by acting first and then thinking. She described The “Outsight Principle” which is the mine idea of this book. Through the implementation of the “outsight principle”, Ibarra believes that one can improve or develop into an effective leader. This principle attests that the only way to think like a leader is to first act it out and that is to come out of ones’ comfort zone by start doing changes and more experiences.…
