    Adding to this victim-blaming perspective is Will Maslow. He wrote Civil rights legislation and the fight for equality, 1862-1952, which was published in 1953; it looks specifically at the implications of proposals and support of anti-Klan bills.

If somebody were to propose legislation to help advance African Americans, or even support a bill of the kind, they were putting themselves on the hit-list. The paranoia among Southern whites was so intense that if somebody didn’t publicly denounce a sympathetic bill, they were immediately categorized as “one of them.” The mentality among whites in the South was overwhelmingly “they did this to themselves.” After repeated filibustering…

Hurston's four novels and two books of folklore resulted from extensive anthropological research and have proven invaluable sources on the oral cultures of African America. Zora Neale Hurston is considered one of the pre-eminent writers of twentieth-century African-American literature. Hurston was closely associated with the Harlem Renaissance and has influenced such writers as Ralph Ellison, Toni Morrison, Gayle Jones, Alice Walker, and Toni Cade Bambara. Through her writings, Robert Hemenway wrote in The Harlem Renaissance Remembered, Hurston "helped to remind the Renaissance--especially its more bourgeois members--of the richness in the racial heritage."
