SECTION TWO: ESSAY QUESTION
Explain why the Black Power Movement emerged as a form of black protest in the United States from the mid-1960s. [50]
SYNOPSIS

At the very point at which the Civil Rights Movement claimed victory with the passage of the Civil Rights Act (1964) and Voting Rights Act (1965), the Black Power Movement was emerging as a new form of black protest. Many of the supporters were young, African American people who had been involved in the Civil Rights Movement but had become dissatisfied with the slow pace of change. It was in the urban ghettos of northern cities in particular, where black people faced poverty, poor housing conditions, limited job opportunities and on-going police harassment that the Black Power Movement took root. Candidates should identify and explain the various political, socio-economic and cultural factors which stimulated the emergence of this new form of protest.


MAIN ASPECTS
Candidates should include the following aspects in their response:


  • Introduction: Candidates should contextualise the question (when, where, who, what) and briefly outline their line of argument.

ELABORATION



  • Black Power Movement challenged the socio-economic equality between black and white Americans

- The passage of the Civil Rights Act (1964) and the Voting Rights Act (1965) were victories for Civil Rights Movement but the majority of black people were poorer, less educated, in lower paid jobs, in poorer housing and with fewer opportunities than their white equivalents.

- After a wave of urban riots in northern cities in mid 1960s President Johnson ordered a commission to investigate the cause of this violence. Its key finding was that the country was divided, along racial and socio-economic lines, into two societies: in 1967 35% blacks lived below the poverty line compared with 10% whites; mortality rate of black babies twice as high as white babies. The commission stated that ‘Chronic poverty is the breeder of chronic chaos’





  • Black community’s frustration with on-going police harassment

- Youths in particular were frustrated with on-going violence, intimidation and arbitrary arrests

- Stokely Carmichael, who first used the slogan ‘Black Power’ in 1966, was a leading member of the Student Non-violent Co-ordinating Commiittee (SNCC). He was arrested 27 times on non-violent Civil Rights demonstrations. He called for a change in tactics.

- Huey Newton and Bobbly Searle won support for their newly formed Black Panther Party because they organised armed patrols of the streets of Oakland California to protect black citizens from police harassment.


  • The Black Power Movement inspired self-respect and pride in being black

- Rejection of racial integration and assimilation which was a feature of the Civil Rights Movement

- Black Power emphasised that black people should do things for themselves: they should control the politicians and politics in their own communities

- Self-defence and fighting back if necessary was an important aspect of Black Power – supporters felt that CRM activists had been exploited because of their non-violence.

- Consciousness raising through 1960s (from ‘negro’ to ‘black’ to ‘African American) feeds into demands for more than political rights and assimilation.

- Increasingly African Americans expressed an independent and unique cultural identify based on shared ancestry and slave experience.

- Celebration of African American history, music and literature thrived in late 1960s and 1970s.




  • Any other relevant answer / substantiation.




  • Conclusion: Candidates should sum up their argument with a relevant conclusion.
