This book is a study of black masculinity in the twenty-first century. Through a series of critical and interdisciplinary essays, this work examines the image of the black male in American society as a Toby Waller stereotype. Toby Waller is the fictional, yet symbolic character from Alex Haley’s highly acclaimed book and mini-series, Roots. It is a richly detailed, fictional story about slavery and one enslaved African man’s struggle to regain freedom. The parallel of the life of enslaved Toby Waller is similar to present day black males. Both are individuals who are often stripped of their cultural identity and exist within an institutional and systemic framework that devalues black male life. This dichotomy is the historical platform to discuss how those in the annals of white America demarcate which embodiment merits inclusion into societal acceptance. - Inbunden, Engelska, 2016

Winner of the 2019 LAMBDA Literary Award in LGBTQ Studies!Toxic Silence: Race, Black Gender Identity, and Addressing the Violence against Black Transgender Women in Houston contributes to a growing body of transgender scholarship. This book examines the patriarchal and heteronormative frames within the black community and larger American society that advances the toxic masculinity which violently castigates and threatens the collective embodiment of black transgender women in the USA. Such scholarship is needed to shed more light on the transphobic violence and murders against this understudied group. Little is known about the societal and cultural issues and concerns affecting black transgender women and how their gender identity is met with systemic, institutional, and interpersonal roadblocks. During a time period in American history defined by Time Magazine as "The Transgender Tipping Point," black transgender women have emerged as social, cultural, and political subjects to advance our understanding of the lives of people who identity as a part of both the black and LGBTQIA communities. In the end, this book calls on the black community and culture to end the toxic silence and act instead as allies who are more accepting and inclusive of differing sexualities and gender identities in an effort to improve the generative power of black solidarity. - Inbunden, Engelska, 2018

Founded in 1876, Prairie View A&M University is the second-oldest public institution of higher learning in Texas, one of two Texas land-grant universities, and an "institution of the first class" within the Texas A&M University System. It is also the first public historically Black college or university (HBCU) in Texas. Prairie View A&M has played a pivotal role in the educational and economic experiences of African American Texans. As the university celebrates its sesquicentennial in 2026, editors Will Guzmán and William T. Hoston document and interpret the actions of important individuals, campus institutions, and cultural traditions that made Prairie View A&M what it is today.The Hill We Climbed: Prairie View A&M University complements former Prairie View professor George R. Woolfolk's classic 1962 work Prairie View: A Study in Public Conscience, 1878–1946 and Michael Nojeim's 2011 Down that Road: A Pictorial History of Prairie View A&M University to further contextualize Prairie View A&M's place among HBCUs, higher education in general, and Texas Black life in particular. Prairie View A&M University has a long and rich history, of which past literature provides only a small sampling. In celebrating the 150–year anniversary of the founding of this historically Black institution, The Hill We Climbed documents how the university continues to fulfill its historic mission, encapsulating PVAMU's motto: "Prairie View produces productive people." - Häftad, Engelska, 2026

Prairie View A&M University is more than Texas's oldest public historically Black university—it is a crucible of political struggle and social transformation. Since its founding in 1876 on the grounds of a former slave plantation, Prairie View has stood at the forefront of the Black freedom struggle, producing generations of students, faculty, and alumni who challenged the injustices of Waller County, Texas, and beyond.Justice on "The Hill" brings together wide-ranging histories that reveal Prairie View's singular role in shaping Black political life. From the long battle for voting rights—fought through courtrooms, protests, and ballot boxes—to the galvanizing impact of Sandra Bland's story, these chapters explore the people and movements that turned a rural HBCU into a national symbol of resistance. Readers will encounter the determined students who formed the "Political Science Posse," the courage of Lulu B. White and Maude Craig Sampson Williams, the legacy of Emanuel Cleaver, and the enduring struggles against racial violence and voter suppression in Waller County.This collection underscores Prairie View's abiding truth: Activism is woven into its very fabric. Each chapter offers a unique lens—whether through women's leadership in the early twentieth century, the role of religion in protest, or the long shadow of racial violence—that together illuminate the breadth of Prairie View's contributions to American history.Edited by Will Guzmán and William T. Hoston, Justice on "The Hill" honors the institution's sesquicentennial by preserving stories of struggle, resilience, and triumph. It affirms Prairie View's reputation as not only a producer of "productive people" but also as a wellspring of political consciousness and justice-seeking, where generations of Black students transformed themselves and the nation. - Häftad, Engelska, 2020
