80 years ago, Lloyd Gaines’s application to the University of Missouri law school was denied based on his race. Gaines and the NAACP challenged the university’s deci- sion. Missouri ex rel. Gaines v. Canada (1938) was the rst in a long line of decisions by the U.S. Supreme Court regarding race, higher education, and equal opportunity. The court case drew national headlines, and the NAACP moved Gaines to Chicago after he received death threats. Before he could attend law school, he vanished.This is the rst book to focus entirely on the Gaines case and the vital role played by the NAACP and its lawyers including Charles Houston, known as “the man who killed Jim Crow”— who advanced a concerted strategy to produce political change. Horner and Endersby also discuss the African American newspaper journal- ists and editors who mobilized popular support for the NAACP’s strategy. This book reveals an important step toward the broad acceptance of the principle that racial segregation is inherently unequal.

The Pequots in Southern New England

The Pequots in Southern New England

Before their massacre by Massachusetts Puritans in 1637, the Pequots were preeminent in southern New England. Their location on the eastern Connecticut shore made them important producers of the wampum required to trade for furs from the Iroquois. They were also the only Connecticut Indians to oppose the land-hungry English. For those reasons, they became the first victims of white genocide in colonial America.Despite the Pequot War of 1637, and the greed and neglect of their white neighbors and ""overseers,"" the Pequots endured in their ancestral homeland. In 1983 they achieved federal recognition. In 1987 they commemorated the 350th anniversary of the Pequot War by organizing the Mashantucket Pequot Historical Conference, at which distinguished scholars presented the articles assembled here.
