영문 초록

The role of black women in the civil rights movement has received scant attention from historians. With the exception of some feminists, most scholars examined male leaders and the organizations they led. From mid 1980s. scholars started to examine African American women in the civil rights movement. The most typical example is Ella Josephine Baker(1903-1986). She Worked across many different areas of the civil rights and black liberation movements in various capacities for 50 years. She was associated wit whatever organization in the black community was on the cutting edge of the era - the National Association for Advancement of Colored People(NAACP) in the forties Southern Christian Leadership Conference(SCLC) in the fifties. Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee(SNCC) in the sixties. Baker is hold in high esteem by SNCC historians. But generally Baker is called “facilitater” or “behind the scenes organizer.” Especially SCLC historians demphacized the roles of Baker in SCLC. This paper examines roles and contributions of Baker in SCLC. Examining the roles and contributions of Baker in SCLC requires three considerations. First, one should recognize Baker’s Works in formation of SCLC. Second. Baker’s works in SCLC’s Crusade for Citizenship must be examined. Third, one study her work in August 1960 Baker resigned from SCLC. We should take the times context and various into account as well when examining her resignation. In the course of examining her works, we can acknowledge her idealogical praxis. Baker was radical-egalitarian populist. whereas King and SCLC leaders are representative black church preachers and moderate reformers. Baker’s works in SCLC must be highly esteemed historically. After her resignation. SCLC Firmly established basic project : voter registration, citizenship education. mass demonstration and selective buying campaign. SCLC demonstrated a heightened concern for voter registration by instituting a Citizenship Training Program and calling a nonviolent army to march throughout the South. This SCLC’s Works was proposed by Baker. Also, Baker was bridge leader in SCLC and civil rights movement. Moreover, the limitations of civil rights movement were attributed to sexism and hierarchy inside the movement. King and sclc leaders expressed sense of hierarchy. elitism and sexism. Baker resented gender and class discrimination in SCLC but continuously tried to transform collective and democratic organization. Baker was a radical intellectual activist. a strategist, a thinker and an organizer She protested not only black and white racial inequality but also gender and class inequality in the civil rights movement. Therefore she was the one who realized the true desire of African Americans.
