Podcasts about Recy Taylor

In September 1944, a 24-year-old married woman named Recy Taylor was walking home with friends from church when a carload of seven men stopped her. Forced into the car, Recy, a Black woman, was repeatedly raped by six white men at gunpoint, then tossed roadside with a warning: Tell anyone about this, and you're dead. Recy ignored the threats and her tale soon galvanized activists throughout Alabama -- including a woman whose name would eventually become synonymous with the Civil Rights movement.

Saralee takes to the mic to teach us about the fiercely brave Recy Taylor. TRIGGER WARNING: sexual assault.

Filmmaker Nancy Buirski (The Loving Story, The Rape of Recy Taylor, By Sidney Lumet) journey through the last 100 years of American cultural, political and artistic touchstones continues with Desperate Souls, Dark City and the Legend of Midnight Cowboy. A half century after its release, John Schlesinger's Midnight Cowboy remains one of the most original and groundbreaking movies of the modern era. With beguiling performances from Jon Voight (Coming Home) and Dustin Hoffman (The Graduate) as two loners who join forces out of desperation, black list survivor Waldo Salt's brilliant screenplay, and Schlesinger's fearless direction, the 1969 film became the only X- rated film to ever win the Academy Award for Best Picture. Its vivid and compassionate depiction of a more realistic, un-sanitized New York City and its inhabitants paved the way for a generation's worth of gritty movies with complex characters and adult themes. But this is not a documentary about the making of Midnight Cowboy: it is about the deeply gifted and flawed people behind a dark and difficult masterpiece; New York City in a troubled time of cultural ferment; and the era that made a movie and the movie that made an era. Director and producer Nancy Buirski joins us to talk about gathering the extensive archival material and compelling new interviews, and how this one film, Midnight Cowboy captured the essence of a time and a place, reflecting a rapidly changing society with striking clarity.

April is Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month. In this episode historian and author Danielle McGuire shares the journey that led her to write , "At The Dark End of the Street." This important piece of work aids in drawing the direct line from the rape and obsession with the Black female body to the Civil Rights Movement.  Black women have paid a heavy price in the movement and in her work Danielle shares some of her experience with Recy Taylor and the experiences of many Black female victims, some as young as 4 years old.    Danielle captures in intimate detail some of these stories and the intersectionality with the Civil Rights Movement. After you’ve listened (or at the same time) purchase, "At The Dark End Of The Street", watch the Netflix documentary, and let’s continue the conversation about race, rape, and civil rights!

Stu Levitan welcomes Danielle McGuire, author of the ground-breaking and award-winning book, At the Dark End of the Street: Black Women, Rape and Resistance–a New History of the Civil Rights Movement from Rosa Parks to the Rise of Black Power. Danielle clicks on two criteria, as a double alum of the UW and a past presenter at the Wisconsin Book Festival. It was a little before midnight on September 3, 1944. A 25-yo black woman named Recy Taylor, and two friends were walking home from church in rural Abbeville Alabama when a carload of six white boys with guns & knives kidnapped her, blindfolded her and drove her to a wooded area outside of town, where they raped her repeatedly for more than 3 hours. Because Recy Taylor's family and friends knew local law enforcement would not take the matter seriously, they contacted the NAACP office in Montgomery, Local president E. D. Nixon assigned his best investigator, a woman who had once lived in Abbeville before commencing a career in black activism. Her name was Rosa Parks. What Rosa Parks did before and after she got to Abbeville, and the overwhelming impact of sexualized violence on the civil rights movement is the business that occupies Danielle McGuire in this important book. As it has occupied her since she got her bachelor's and master's degrees in Afro-American Studies here in the late nineties before getting her Ph D from Rutgers. Danielle McGuire is a native of Janesville Wisconsin who's been thinking and writing about the role of race in modern America since she read Jonathan Kozol's book Savage Inequalities as a high school junior in 1991. Her work has had an impact. At the Dark End of the Street won the Frederick Jackson Turner Award from the Organization of American Historians and the Lillian Smith Award from the Southern Regional Council. Her Journal of American History essay, “It was Like We Were All Raped: Sexualized Violence, Community Mobilization and the African American Freedom Struggle,” won the A. Elizabeth Taylor Prize for best essay in southern women's history and was reprinted in the Best Essays in American History. Perhaps most important, her work led to a formal apology from the State of Alabama to Recy Taylor and her family. Danielle is the editor with John Dittmer of Freedom Rights: New Perspectives on the Civil Rights Movement. She is currently at work on a book about the 1967 murder of three young black men in the Algiers Motel in Detroit which, like At The Dark End of the Street, will be published by Knopf. She lives with her husband, two children and a lhasa-poo in metro Detroit. I had the pleasure of talking with Danielle McGuire on an earlier version of this show, and it is a new pleasure to welcome her now to Madison BookBeat. Airdate - July 6, 2020

A CRIME ON THE BAYOU is the third film in director Nancy Buirski's trilogy profiling brave individuals who fought for justice in and around the Civil Rights era, following The Loving Story and The Rape of Recy Taylor. The story begins in 1966 in Plaquemines Parish, a swampy strip of land south of New Orleans. After months of clashes, the public schools have been integrated by court order. But we are in the land of the white separatist despot, Leander Perez, who rules Plaquemines like his fiefdom, making sure that segregation sticks regardless of federal laws desegregating schools and mandating voting rights. A 19-year old Black fisherman, Gary Duncan, tries to break up a fight between white and Black teenagers outside a newly integrated school. He lays his hand on a white boy’s arm and the boy recoils, as if bitten by snake. That night, police arrest Gary Duncan for assault on a minor. With the help of a young attorney, Richard Sobol, Duncan bravely stands up to Perez. Systemic racism and pervasive anti-Semitism meet their match in decisive courtroom battles, including the U.S. Supreme Court; hate is vanquished by a powerful friendship that will last a lifetime. With the rise of white nationalism in the U.S. and abroad, there is no more important story to tell today. The roots and the mechanics of hate groups are in full display in this dramatic story of a crime on the bayou. Together this trilogy demonstrates that regular people standing up for their values are the root of human progress. Mildred Loving, Recy Taylor and Gary Duncan did not set out to change history. But they remind us that anyone can. A CRIME ON THE BAYOU Executive Producer is John Legend. Director Nancy Buirski joins us to talk about the her searing indictment of the systemic racism that is responsible for the hideously unjust incarceration of Gary Duncan and thousands of others as well as how it continues to this day.

“Now I know why it’s called Black history, If we called it White history I think we would all be crying” Jason At The Dark End Of The Street: Danielle McGuire (Author and speaker) Buy the book: goo.gl/MH1CB7 Groundbreaking, controversial, and courageous, here is the story of Rosa Parks and Recy Taylor—a story that reinterprets the history of America's civil rights movement in terms of the sexual violence committed against black women by white men. Rosa Parks was often described as a sweet and reticent elderly woman whose tired feet caused her to defy segregation on Montgomery’s city buses, and whose supposedly solitary, spontaneous act sparked the 1955 bus boycott that gave birth to the civil rights movement. The truth of who Rosa Parks was and what really lay beneath the 1955 boycott is far different from anything previously written. In this groundbreaking and important book, Danielle McGuire writes about the rape in 1944 of a twenty-four-year-old mother and sharecropper, Recy Taylor, who strolled toward home after an evening of singing and praying at the Rock Hill Holiness Church in Abbeville, Alabama. Seven white men, armed with knives and shotguns, ordered the young woman into their green Chevrolet, raped her, and left her for dead. The president of the local NAACP branch office sent his best investigator and organizer--Rosa Parks--to Abbeville. In taking on this case, Parks launched a movement that exposed a ritualized history of sexual assault against black women and added fire to the growing call for change. Free Joan Little Movement Joan Little is an African-American woman whose trial for the 1974 murder of a white prison guard at Beaufort County Jail in Washington, North Carolina, became a cause célèbre of the civil rights, feminist, and anti-death penalty movements. Little was the first woman in United States history to be acquitted using the defense that she used deadly force to resist sexual assault.[1] Her case also has become classic in legal circles as a pioneering instance of the application of scientific jury selection.

On the night of September 3rd, 1944, Recy Taylor was walking home from church when she was approached by a car full of 7 white men. They forced her at gun point to get into the vehicle and then drove her to "the spot" where they proceeded to brutally rape her. Being a black woman in the Jim Crow era, Recy knew the consequences if she spoke out against her attackers but she refused to stay silent. We talk about her story and how many got involved in Recy's case to seek justice.'The Rape of Recy Taylor' will be showing in different cities throughout the year so please visit therapeofrecytaylor.com to see where it will be playing next.We got patreon songs at the end so stay tuned if you want to hear us sing our hearts out.

The Funky Politics Crew invites two guest co-host, Latanyua Robinson, of LaTrob, LLC and Siobhan Riley, President, the Memphis Chapter of the National Association of Black Journalist, NABJ, to unpack the relationship between sexual assault and racial discrimination.  As a part of this lively discussion, we discuss Recy Taylor, a Black woman who was gang raped by 6 white men.  Although none of the men were found guilty, Ms. Taylor never gave up on share her truth.  A young NAACP field agent by the name of Rosa Parks, was sent to investigate the story of Recy Taylor. 

On today's episode, Emily and Taylor are joined by their favorite Canadian guest, Kat, and together they discuss the story of Recy Taylor and survivors of the Tusla Race Riot of 1921. So. You've been warned. Maybe...gird your loins, or whatever is appropriate to do in this situation.    "How You Doing, I'm doing just fine" vine song is by Choonie. Thanks for making the most relatable song of all time. 

During Oprah Winfrey’s speech as the recipient of the Cecil B. de Mille Award at the 2018 Golden Globes, she mentioned the horrific rape and lack of justice for the late Recy Taylor. Oprah placed the legacy of Jim Crow sexual violence into the #metoo movement and while many applauded her inclusion, so women found it troubling. With the help of the Duke University Behind the Veil Oral History project, we look at Jim Crow sexual violence against African American women.

Talking Pictures: Director Interview, The Rape of Recy Taylor Host Paul Booth interviews direcor Nancy Buriski (By Sindey Lumet) about he new film being released in L.A. and N.Y.C. Recy Taylor, a 24-year-old black mother and sharecropper, was gang raped by six white boys in 1944 Alabama. Common in Jim Crow South, few women spoke up in fear for their lives. Not Recy Taylor, who bravely identified her rapists. The NAACP sent its chief rapeinvestigator Rosa Parks, who rallied support and triggered an unprecedented outcry for justice.                                             Our film exposes a legacy of physical abuse of black women and reveals Rosa Parks' intimate role in Recy Taylor's story. An attempted rape against Parks was but one inspiration for her ongoing fight for justice for countless women like Taylor. The 1955 bus boycott was an end result, not a beginning.
