Description

In Black Victory, Darlene Clark Hine examines a pivotal breakthrough within the struggle for black liberation during the voting process. She main points the stairs and players within the 1944 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Smith v. Allwright, a precursor to the 1965 Voting Rights Act. She discusses the role that NAACP attorneys such as Thurgood Marshall played in helping black Texans regain the fitting denied them by white Texans within the Democratic Birthday party: the fitting to vote and to have that vote count. Hine illuminates the mobilization of black Texans. She effectively demonstrates how every a part of the African American community—from professionals to laborers—used to be crucial to this struggle and the victory against disfranchisement.
