Playing Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde -- From high school dropout to classroom teacher -- In spite of this old devil segregation -- In Georgia, where I am free to express myself -- Whatever is in the best interests of kids -- Not without partnering with the community
Like many black school principals, Ulysses Byas, who served the Gainesville, Georgia, school system in the 1950s and 1960s, was reverently addressed by community members as 'Professor'. He kept copious notes and records throughout his career, documenting efforts to improve the education of blacks. Through conversations with Byas and access to his extensive archives on his principalship, this book finds that black principals were well positioned in the community to serve as conduits of ideas, knowledge, and tools to support black resistance to officially sanctioned regressive educational systems in the Jim Crow South
