INTRODUCTION

In honor of Black History Month, the New York State Library is issuing An African-American Bibliography: History. The bibliography lists selected resources of the New York State Library that document and comment on the experience of African Americans in the history of the United States. In addition to primary sources and significant historical works, the bibliography contains references to bibliographies and research aids.

Although the bibliography covers the African-American experience from the colonial period to the present, it emphasizes the post World War II period and the civil rights movement that followed the Supreme Court's decision in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka. The bibliography includes the major civil rights legislation of the past three decades, records the voices of African-American activism and protest, and illustrates the impact African-American voters and political candidates have had on the electoral process.

The bibliography also focuses on the work of African-American historians and social scientists, including not only classic texts by John Hope Franklin and Carter G. Woodson, the "Father of Black History," but also works by William Junius Wilson and Shelby Steele that reflect current African-American debate on social policy.

While the biographies cited in the bibliography are primarily those of African-American civil rights leaders and public officials, also cited are works by or about selected writers, entertainers, and sports figures whose lives have a social significance beyond their professional achievements. Consequently, Frederick Douglass, Martin Luther King, Jr., Barbara Jordan, Jesse Jackson, and Shirley Chisholm are profiled, but so are Paul Robeson, Jesse Owens, Althea Gibson, Muhammad Ali, Langston Hughes, and Richard Wright.

The mission of the New York State Library is to provide reference, information, and materials to support the work of New York State government and to ensure that every resident of the State has convenient free access to essential library services. To carry out this mission, the Library serves as the principal library resource for State government and serves as a coordinating and resource center for the statewide interlibrary loan network. If you cannot obtain the works listed in this bibliography at your local library, you may request them through interlibrary loan. Besides the bibliographic information, each entry in this bibliography contains the New York State Library call number in parenthesis. The use of this call number helps expedite the interlibrary loan process.

The bibliography was compiled by Melinda Yates, a reference librarian on the staff of the New York State Library. The New York State Library would like to acknowledge the generous financial assistance of the Division of Intercultural Relations in the publication of this bibliography.
