SUMMARY Louis I. Jaffé was the longtime editor of the Norfolk Virginian-Pilot (1919–1950) who earned renown for his sponsorship and promotion of Virginia’s antilynching law. A lifelong liberal and civil rights activist, Jaffé championed reforms that sought to improve the daily lives of African Americans, especially those in Hampton Roads. In 1929, he became Virginia’s first Pulitzer Prize winner, receiving the award for Distinguished Editorial Writing for the Norfolk Virginian-Pilot‘s antilynching advocacy. Louis Isaac Jaffé was born, apparently in Detroit, Michigan, to Philip and Lotta Jaffe, orthodox Jewish immigrants from Lithuania. Around 1895 the Jaffes moved to Durham, North Carolina, where they operated a series of marginal businesses. Their residency in the thriving textile and tobacco town enabled their son to receive an excellent education at Durham High School and later at Trinity College (now Duke University), where he edited the campus n ....
Christianity Today, produced his watershed volume The Uneasy Conscience of Modern Fundamentalism. This work represented Henry’s clarion call for evangelicals to engage with the social ills facing the world, to apply the fundamental doctrines of the Christian faith to address the needs of society without being trapped into preaching a mere “social gospel.” Fundamentalists of the prior generation, he argued, showed a troubling “reluctance to come to grips with social evils” as they isolated themselves from the surrounding world.

Flames of Wrath and the Pioneering African-American Women of Silent Cinema Maria P. Williams was one of the first African-American women to make movies, and her life is as fascinating as the one known film she made. The New York Public Library Beyond the Classics is a bi-weekly column in which Emily Kubincanek highlights lesser-known old movies and examines what makes them memorable. In this installment, she highlights the silent cinema pioneer Maria P. Williams and her film Flames of Wrath. Recognition for African Americans who shaped early Hollywood cinema has only come about recently. However, while male African-American filmmakers such as Oscar Micheaux are finally getting their due attention, female African-American filmmakers are still vastly underappreciated. Black women have had their hand in nearly every facet of filmmaking from at least the 1920s, but there is still very little research or historical discussion on them and their work. ....
How Norfolk became segregated: the century-long roots of the city’s ‘Dividing Lines’ Sara Gregory and Ryan Murphy, The Virginian-Pilot A mob marched on Norfolk in 1923. A new family had moved onto Corprew Avenue, a “white block” as far as city ordinance was concerned, the northernmost boundary of the well-to-do enclave of Brambleton, which was then on the city’s outskirts. The family moving in considered themselves white, but the armed crowd, which included a sitting City Council member, saw no place on the block for what whites thought were light-skinned Black people. “Brambleton is in Eruption Again,” the Norfolk Journal and Guide newspaper reported after the mob descended on the home, intimidating its occupants and trying to force them to move. ....
