- W2034105079 abstract "Over the years, academics and legal scholars, some from inside the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (naacp), have criticized that organization despite its numerous legal victories. They have charged that those victories helped only the black middle class and not the working masses. Risa L. Goluboff's pioneering study, “in excavating the multiplicity of civil rights complaints and practices of the 1940s … reveal[s] how much of Jim Crow the victory of Brown left unchallenged” (p. 13). Goluboff argues that the victory in Brown v. Board of Education (1954) largely rejected the possibility that workers' complaints would shape [the naacp] litigation agenda. The lawyers eschewed labor cases, the due process clause, private defendants, and material inequality in favor of a frontal attack on state-mandated educational segregation. (p. 12) According to the author's conceptualization, when the naacp adopted that legal strategy and “strategic litigation” choice, it foreclosed any possible naacp legal attacks on rampant underemployment; private and public economic discrimination; private acts of peonage; corporate acts of economic discrimination in both salaries and jobs placements; and maltreatment of African American agricultural and industrial workers (and this listing does not include the “closed shop” tactics of sundry labor unions in this era). Thus, the plight of the “economic downtrodden” in the African American community was left primarily to white lawyers in the Civil Rights Section of the Justice Department under the sympathetic leadership of Attorney General Frank Murphy. Although there were a few lawyers in the naacp who worked on labor cases, the victory in Brown ensured that those undersupported lawyers would be further sidelined." @default.
