520    "Economy Hall: The Hidden History of a Free Black 
       Brotherhood tells the story of the Société d'Economie et 
       d'Assistance Mutuelle, a New Orleans mutual aid society 
       founded by free men of color in 1836. The group was one of
       the most important multiethnic, intellectual communities 
       in the US South: educators, world-traveling merchants, 
       soldiers, tradesmen, and poets who rejected racism and 
       colorism to fight for suffrage and education rights for 
       all. The author drew on the meeting minutes of the Société
       d'Economie as well as census and civil records, newspapers,
       and numerous archival sources to write a narrative 
       stretching from the Haitian Revolution through the early 
       jazz age"--|cProvided by publisher.
