SERVANTS OF THE PEOPLE: The 1960s Legacy of African American Leadership

The second edition of Servants of the People:  The 1960s Legacy of African American Leadership includes three new chapters.  An introductory chapter traces pivotal social and political events in African Americans history since the late 1990s.  The other new chapters profile two women--Ella J. Baker (1903-1986) and Septima P. Clark (1898-1987)--who were prominent in the civil rights movement.  These new biographies supplement the six leaders described in the original edition.

Servants of the People, a well researched, meticulously documented resource in the civil right canon, is an excellent supplemental text for courses in African American studies, gender studies, history, leadership studies, political science, servant-leadership, and women’s studies.  Servants of the People has an extensive review of the leadership literature, copious endnotes, and a 17-page bibliography with 375 citations.  The lessons learned section describes the specific leadership characteristics of the profiled leaders, using a servant leadership frame of reference and mode of analysis.  A 20-year chronology outlines the major civil rights events from 1954-1974.
