A Century of Progress

By: Barbara Beadle Barber

Even though they were slaves, many blacks attended church with their masters. While they may have inherited the masters' religion, they relied upon their own faith to continue worshipping after the Civil War ended. In 1883, St. Mark's was founded to meet the needs of the newly freed black population. Ensuring the church survived and served its members, however, was quite a task. In By Faith: A Century of Progress, learn about: How slaves became incorporated into church life; The contributions of early church leaders; How the larger church incorporated black churches into its network; The church's role in the Civil Rights Movement; And much more! At last, the stories of this historic church's parishioners can be told to Episcopalians throughout the world. Barbara Beadle Barber, a lifelong Episcopalian, draws upon her numerous interviews, personal papers, church documents, and photos to produce a treasure trove of information in By Faith: A Century of Progress.

The Othering of Women in Silent Film

Cultural, Historical, and Literary Contexts

By: Barbara Tepa Lupack

In The Othering of Women in Silent Film: Cultural, Historical, and Literary Contexts, Barbara Tepa Lupackexplores the rampant racial and gender stereotyping depicted in early cinema, demonstrating how those stereotypes helped shape American attitudes and practices. Using social, cultural, literary, and cinema history as a focus, this book offers insights into issues of Othering, including discrimination, exclusion, and sexism, that are as timely today as they were a century ago. Lupack not only examines the ways that dominant cinema of the era imprinted indelible and pejorative images of women—including African Americans, Native Americans, Asians, Hispanics, and New Women/Suffragists—but also reveals the ways in which a number of pioneering early filmmakers and performers attempted to counter those depictions by challenging the imagery, interrogating the stereotypes, and re-politicizing the familiar narratives. Scholars of film, gender, history, and race studies will find this book of particular interest.
