Next up in the ASALH Authors Book Series: Steady and Measured: Benner C. Turner, A Black College President in the Jim Crow South by Travis D. Boyce. In this nuanced biography, Boyce reexamines the legacy of Benner C. Turner, longtime president of South Carolina State University, and offers a deeper understanding of his leadership amid the harsh realities of segregation and white resistance. Boyce—Associate Professor and Chair of African American Studies at San Jose State University—draws on his expertise in higher education and civil rights history to paint a fuller portrait of a leader who navigated the Jim Crow South with purpose and restraint. 📚 Available now: [uscpress.com/Steady-and-Measured](uscpress.com/Steady-and-Measured) #asalhbooks #steadyandmeasured #travisdboyce #bennercturner #hbcuhistory #blackhighered #JimCrowSouth ...

Next up in the ASALH Authors Book Series: *Tell Her Story: Eleanor Bumpurs & the Police Killing That Galvanized New York City* by LaShawn Harris. A leading voice in African American and Black women’s history, Harris is an Associate Professor at Michigan State University and former Assistant Editor of the *Journal of African American History*. In this powerful and deeply personal book, Harris draws from her own experience as Bumpurs’s former neighbor to examine the 1984 police killing that sparked a movement. Her work has been widely recognized in both academic and popular media, and her award-winning scholarship continues to illuminate untold stories of Black resistance and resilience. #ASALHBooks #TellHerStory #EleanorBumpurs #LaShawnHarris #SayHerName #BlackWomenInHistory #PoliceViolence #BlackHistoryMatters ...
