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.
