Title A name given to the resource Flood Letter - Letter to the Commissioner Description An account of the resource In a 1969 letter, Curt Flood declares: “I do not feel that I’m a piece of property to be bought and sold irrespective of my wishes…” Refusing the trade, Flood challenged baseball’s reserve clause – a provision of every major league contract that gave any team signing a player exclusive right to his services when the contract ended. Flood filed a lawsuit against major league baseball for his freedom. He lost the case, but today, all professional athletes can market their talents as free agents.

Title A name given to the resource Gold Star Mothers Description An account of the resource Black Gold Star mothers asserted their citizenship rights by claiming the same military benefits afforded white mothers and widows. In their photographs of the pilgrimage, Black women brandished the American flag thereby challenging the iconic image of the all-American war mother and nation as white. Abstract A summary of the resource. In 1930, the federal government sponsored a series of segregated trips to Europe for the surviving mothers and widows of WWI soldiers to visit the graves of their fallen loved ones. Black women responded to the segregated pilgrimage in varied yet self-defining ways. Some felt insulted by the Jim Crow arrangement and petitioned President Hoover to desegregate their travel. In a letter drafted by the NAACP and signed by fifty-five Gold Star mothers, they pledged to refuse the trip rather than submit to segregation. For Black mothers and widows who decided to take the trip often did so in opposition to Black leaders and the Black press. Their pilgrimage affirmed their right to grieve and define for themselves how to exercise their freedoms as Black mothers and wives. Bibliographic Citation A bibliographic reference for the resource.

Vernacular photography refers to photos that focus on everyday life and people and makes the ordinary and familiar matter. In the case of African American servicemen, vernacular photography visually turned the uniformed soldier into both an everyday-man and first-class citizen. Photographs of Black men standing strong and dressed in military uniform showed them as loyal and patriotic, but most importantly, as American citizens. Vernacular photography of uniformed soldiers also mobilized Black families and communities. Particularly, during WWII, the images provided African Americans with visual symbols that aided in the Double V Campaign, rallying Black people to fight for victories abroad against fascism and at home against U.S. racism. https://exhibits.library.jhu.edu/files/original/c0a8b92ad8bbb71f3ee1d1076c9410c1.jpg 0d3dfc0ebfbb970af00b98b65d38c92f Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
