YouTube Description
as posted by the channelLive-streamed on April 15, 2024
Dylan Penningroth, professor of Law and History at the University of California, Berkeley, discusses his recent book Before The Movement: The Hidden History of Black Civil Rights.
Professor Dylan Penningroth then joins, diving right into the personal story behind his decades-long research into the major evolution of Black civil rights as a concept. Stepping back, Professor Penningroth, looks to the 19th-century conceptualization of Black civil rights, with a particular distinction from any political or social rights, carving out a minuscule space in civil society where Black people were given very particular privileges, first contextualizing what these “civil” privileges entailed (largely relating to low-level contract and property law), before walking through the evolution of these rights in both the reconstruction era and during the subsequent White Supremacist backlash at the turn of the 20th Century.
