Zusammenfassung: | "Massive Resistance and Southern Womanhood offers a comparative sociocultural and spatial history of white supremacist women who were active in segregationist grassroots activism in Little Rock, New Orleans, and Charleston from the late 1940s to the late 1960s. Through her examination, Rebecca Brückmann uncovers and evaluates the roles, actions, self-understandings, and media representations of segregationist women in massive resistance in urban and metropolitan settings. Brückmann argues that white women were motivated by an everyday culture of white supremacy, and they created performative spaces for their segregationist agitation in the public sphere to legitimize their actions. While other studies of mass resistance have focused on maternalism, Brückmann shows that women's invocation of motherhood was varied and primarily served as a tactical tool to continuously expand these women's spaces. Through this examination she differentiates the circumstances, tactics, and representations used in the creation of performative spaces by working-class, middle-class, and elite women engaged in massive resistance. Brückmann focuses on the transgressive "street politics" of working-class female activists in Little Rock and New Orleans that contrasted with the more traditional political actions of segregationist, middle-class, and elite women in Charleston, who aligned white supremacist agitation with long-standing experience in conservative women's clubs, including the United Daughters of the Confederacy and the Daughters of the American Revolution. Working-class women's groups chose consciously transgressive strategies, including violence, to elicit shock value and create states of emergency to further legitimize their actions and push for white supremacy"-- |

Through her examination, Rebecca Brückmann uncovers and evaluates the roles, actions, self-understandings, and media representations of segregationist women in massive resistance in urban and metropolitan settings. Brückmann argues that white women were motivated by an everyday culture of white supremacy, and they created performative spaces for their segregationist agitation in the public sphere to legitimize their actions. While other studies of mass resistance have focused on maternalism, Brückmann shows that women's invocation of motherhood was varied and primarily served as a tactical tool to continuously expand these women's spaces. Through this examination she differentiates the circumstances, tactics, and representations used in the creation of performative spaces by working-class, middle-class, and elite women engaged in massive resistance. Brückmann focuses on the transgressive "street politics" of working-class female activists in Little Rock and New Orleans that contrasted with the more traditional political actions of segregationist, middle-class, and elite women in Charleston, who aligned white supremacist agitation with long-standing experience in conservative women's clubs, including the United Daughters of the Confederacy and the Daughters of the American Revolution. Working-class women's groups chose consciously transgressive strategies, including violence, to elicit shock value and create states of emergency to further legitimize their actions and push for white supremacy"-- Geschichte 1945-1965 gnd rswk-swf Weibliche Weiße (DE-588)4491739-9 gnd rswk-swf Rassentrennung (DE-588)4115696-1 gnd rswk-swf Vorherrschaft (DE-588)4414844-6 gnd rswk-swf USA Südstaaten (DE-588)4078674-2 gnd rswk-swf White supremacy movements / Southern States / History / 20th century Women, White / Political activity / Southern States / History / 20th century Women, White / Southern States / Attitudes / History / 20th century Women, White / Southern States / Social life and customs / History / 20th century Segregation / Southern States / History / 20th century Race discrimination / Southern States / History / 20th century Racism / Southern States / History / 20th century Southern States / Race relations / History / 20th century Race discrimination Race relations Racism Segregation White supremacy movements Southern States 1900-1999 History USA Südstaaten (DE-588)4078674-2 g Weibliche Weiße (DE-588)4491739-9 s Vorherrschaft (DE-588)4414844-6 s Rassentrennung (DE-588)4115696-1 s Geschichte 1945-1965 z DE-604 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, ebk 978-0-8203-5834-5 Digitalisierung UB Augsburg - ADAM Catalogue Enrichment application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=032450926&sequence=000001&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Inhaltsverzeichnis Digitalisierung UB Augsburg - ADAM Catalogue Enrichment application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=032450926&sequence=000003&line_number=0002&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Klappentext |
