African Americans from Pittsburgh have a long and distinctive history of contributions to the cultural, political, and social evolution of the United States. From jazz legend Earl Fatha Hines to playwright August Wilson, from labor protests in the 1950s to the Black Power movement of the late 1960s, Pittsburgh has been a force for change in American race and class relations. Race and Renaissance presents the first history of African American life in Pittsburgh after World War II. It examines the origins and significance of the second Great Migration, the persistence of Jim Crow into the postwar years, the second ghetto, the contemporary urban crisis, the civil rights and Black Power movements, and the Million Man and Million Woman marches, among other topics. In recreating this period, Trotter and Day draw not only from newspaper articles and other primary and secondary sources, but also from oral histories. These include interviews with African Americans who lived in Pittsburgh during the postwar era, uncovering firsthand accounts of what life was truly like during this transformative epoch in urban history. In these ways, Race and Renaissance illuminateshow African Americans arrived at their present moment in history. It also links movements for change to larger global issues: civil rights with the Vietnam War; affirmative action with the movement against South African apartheid. As such, the study draws on both sociology and urban studies to deepen our understanding of the lives of urban blacks.Binding Type: Paperback

Great value
Color: Light Champagne, Size: 6
My son loves this suit. He has worn it several times and he always mentions how comfortable it is. We don't use the tie but the other three pieces fit him well. When it first arrived it did have quite a few loose threads that had to be trimmed. Pretty much all the buttons and quite a few of the seams had several threads that needed to be trimmed. After that it appears to be good to go. None of the stitching continued to come undone. For the price this is a very good suit for kids.

Nice formal European look suit for kids
Color: Dusty Blue, Size: 12
Very nice suit with a European look. Comes with a jacket, double breasted vest, pants, and tie. Does not have a shirt. The jacket is very well made and has sleeve buttons for a finished look. The vest is double breasted for the formal style of the suit. The pants are hemmed at the bottom, have an adjustable waistband, and belt loops.
Very well made from quality materials. Fits as expected. Great style. Coloring is consistent between the jacket, pants, and vest. The buttons are durable. Highly recommend this suit for your kid.
