The Gender Problem and the Black Family
Psychological and psychoanalytical approaches to containing and preventing prejudice leaned toward reforming childhood
socialization practices, parenting patterns, and family relations of authority for reasons that were both theoretical and practical, as noted above. Given this bias, the deep concern with gender roles and their development that pervaded the postwar literature on race is not very surprising. Mothers, it was clear, were strategically positioned as cultural architects because families were personality factories. To the extent that the United States succeeded in overcoming its social problems, mothers could be credited. To the extent that social crises remained unresolved, or even worsened, mothers could be blamed. And they often were.[40]
In the case of the black family, however, the gender problem extended well beyond the willingness to identify mothers as agents of socialization and powerful sources of all sorts of attitudes—tolerant and prejudiced, achievement-oriented and fatalistic—in their (male) children. Beginning with E. Franklin Frazier's landmark study of the black family in 1939 and continuing with Abram Kardiner's and Lionel Ovesey's psychoanalytic theory and Mamie Clark's and Kenneth Clark's research in the 1950s and 1960s, "matriarchal" gender relations within the black family were analyzed and discussed as significant defects in their own right, immediate sources of personality and social problems (from warped self-esteem to juvenile delinquency to school failure), and appropriate targets for policy designed to improve race relations by enhancing masculinity and bolstering patriarchal authority.[41] By 1965 a report on the state of young urban criminals that appeared in the New York Times Magazine simply stated that "the welfare world of New York is a fatherless world" in which "people infect one another with the virus of failure."[42] The article continued:
The "unavailable mother"—unwed, indigent or surviving on welfare payments, socially deprived, economically deprived, intellectually deprived, often friendless, depressed, mentally disturbed, lonely, frightened, unable to supply the needs of a newborn child, already burdened with children she has rejected—the unavailable mother produces the unreachable child. This is the woman who needs the attention of the social welfare world. . . . We know that the damage to the [black] infant takes place long before he sees the dirt, the drunks, the drug addicts, the spilled garbage of the slum; the damage takes place when the unavailable mother brings her child home from the hospital and realizes she hates him for being alive.[43]
A good look at gender arrangements, in other words, showed just how deeply the black personality—specially the black male personality—had been damaged.
The emphasis on gender roles was accepted unquestioningly as an essential component of comprehensive research and policy at the time. It was, after all, completely consistent with broad cultural trends, including the widespread popularization of psychoanalysis (still associated with the scandalous yet scintillating taint of sexuality in popular perception), an avid ideology of domestic and dependent femininity in the period after 1945, and the growing interest in the history of black Americans that was sparked by the emergence of the civil rights movement. The antifeminist implications of this emphasis in the psychological literature, however, became infinitely clearer in retrospect, especially in the wake of policy controversies like the Moynihan Report and in the face of a new women's movement prepared to criticize and defy notions of essential differences between men and women, in the family and elsewhere.
E. Franklin Frazier's monumental work The Negro Family in the United States was a touchstone for virtually every subsequent addition to the postwar literature on the psychology of race. His thesis was that the history of marriage, family, and childrearing in the black community had been determined by external and impersonal forces since the Civil War, especially the long march of industrial capitalism. Personal and even cultural factors were, in comparison, relatively insignificant. Considering this fundamentally nonpsychological argument, which consistently attributed causal status to economic over psychological processes, Frazier's prominence in the postwar psychological literature seems puzzling. Perhaps his subject matter—the family—was such familiar territory, to psychological experts, and so readily identified with them, that theorists and researchers in psychology were encouraged to claim at least Frazier's starting point as their own: that the black family was a Pandora's box that had been opened.
As a historical sociologist, Frazier emphasized long-term, macro-social and macroeconomic developments like slavery, mass migration, and urbanization as the hinges upon which the black family's history, and future, turned. He countered the theory that the black family's peculiarities revealed its African heritage by arguing that black Americans were shaped by exactly the same historical forces as white Americans and by describing how the passage from Africa and the experience of the first several generations of black American slaves had wiped out any possibility, of African cultural holdover. Frazier considered slavery to be among the most important factors shaping black families, even long after emancipation, and insisted that many contemporary features
of black gender, sexual, and parenting relations could be traced to its harsh consequences.
In particular, slavery, interfered with what Frazier understood to be the fundamental facts of gender, sexuality, and family economy. Women were naturally inclined toward monogamous and long-lasting emotional bonds. Male sexuality was naturally wild and terribly undiscriminating. The purpose of stable marriages and families was to tame men so that women could accomplish the necessary feats of reproduction and childrearing while being supported and protected by dependable breadwinners. Because becoming dependable breadwinners conflicted with male nature, however, incentives were required. Frazier saw those incentives in capitalist economic relations. For Frazier, ensuring patriarchal black families required an economic guarantee: that black men would be as free as white men to accumulate property, sell labor power, and otherwise function within the marketplace. In other words, Frazier assumed that capitalist patriarchy was the aspiration that made the most sense for black Americans at the moment, even while he criticized it as a historically specific social arrangement and called, at various points in his career, for nationalist and socialist alternatives.[44]
These assumptions were so profound and widespread as to merit little contemporary attention, but they defined the nature of the black family's problem nonetheless. Slavery had interfered with patriarchy by making it impossible for black men to be breadwinning husbands and devoted fathers. This had forced black women into unnatural roles of family authority and replaced the primary family relationship—between a monogamous heterosexual couple—with unusually strong mother-child bonds and little, if any, dependence on the regular economic or emotional contribution of men. Although Frazier described some slaves as heroic in their efforts to maintain loving and loyal families in spite of the inhumanities of servitude, slavery ultimately stripped men of their male prerogatives and put "motherhood in bondage."[45]
New challenges faced black families in the twentieth century, when mass migrations out of the rural South and the increasing pace of urbanization turned gender nonconformity into the kiss of death for black Americans. Frazier argued that the matriarchal family structure had been relatively benign in the rural isolation of Reconstruction, really only a matter of the "simple folkways and mores" of black peasants. Once in contact with the strong patriarchal norms of the dominant white culture, however, the black community started to disintegrate at its core. The "city of destruction" freed the corrosive forces of selfish
individualism among black Americans and the result was a proliferation of "roving men and homeless women," newly equipped to destroy any hope of stable families and communities through exploitative and violent behavior.[46]
Frazier concluded that only by altering the course of those macro-social forces that had so destabilized the black family was there any hope of encouraging more stable (i.e., more patriarchal) families in the future. Including black men in the ranks of industrial workers might be one worthwhile avenue to pursue because gains in economic power and security offered a solid basis for increasing men's power in the family and therefore the viability of the black family itself. In the long run, only the complete integration of black men into the economic life of the United States, and equal opportunities to rise or fall there, would do.
In Frazier's analysis, constructive solutions for the black family were as deeply gendered as the definition of its problems had been in the first place. In The Negro Family in the United States, economics and demography typically preceded psychology. For example, Frazier never suggested (as some others did later) that black families were disorganized because their men were plagued by syndromes of low self-esteem. Offering men an opportunity (such as therapy or another method of individual treatment) to sort out their feelings about themselves or their parents was not considered. Employment was. Postwar research and policy directed at black Americans consistently emphasized male employment, although in some cases psychological failures were implicated as causes where Frazier had seen them merely as painful consequences. As we shall see in the next chapter, policy planners during the 1960s hoped that getting black men into good jobs with decent pay would correct the matriarchal deviations of the black family by allowing men to function as reliable breadwinners and domestic authority figures. Supporting masculinity was, in other words, a preferred method of tackling poverty, illegitimacy, inadequate housing, poor academic achievement, and a host of other community problems, including rioting.
Abram Kardiner and Lionel Ovesey confirmed, with clinical data, the gender- and family-related damages that had been cataloged by Frazier on a sociological level. For Kardiner and Ovesey, however, personality was the primary. source of institutional reform and psychology the crucible of social change. In spite of their significant departure from the direction of causation in Frazier's work, Kardiner and Ovesey's The
Mark of Oppression was deeply indebted to Frazier's study. They took to heart Frazier's cue about the black family and its destruction under the conditions of slavery. They incorporated his concern with the disorganizing clash between black matriarchy and the patriarchal norms of the majority. white society. Finally, they showed how far explanations of U.S. racial identity. and race relations had moved in psychological directions by the early 1950s, and how serious psychological experts were about seeing their theories turned into practical plans for "social engineering" in the area of race.[47]
Based on twenty-five clinical case studies and the results of their subjects' Rorschach and TAT test results, psychiatrists Abram Kardiner and Lionel Ovesey developed a psychoanalytic perspective on black personality development that displayed sensitivity to sociological factors, like class differences, which had been illuminated in the research of Bettel-heim and Janowitz. They treated class differences extensively. They explained why, for example, black middle-class families were more likely to achieve patriarchal norms than their poor counterparts. Nevertheless, the case studies led them to view caste (i.e., racial barriers), rather than class, as the unifying, psychological reality that left a "mark of oppression" on all black Americans, male and female, poor and well off, rural and urban.
Kardiner and Ovesey understood gender and family as the most important vehicles through which the mark of oppression was reproduced. As critics of the looseness and superficiality with which World War II-era experts like Margaret Mead and Geoffrey Gorer had treated patterns of childrearing in their profiles of national character, Kardiner and Ovesey offered psychoanalytic principles as the preferred alternative. They substituted new terms ("basic personality" instead of "national character"), elevated the status of unconscious motivation, and applied the theory to black Americans instead of German or Japanese citizens. The result was a psychoanalytic variation on the environmental theme offered by Otto Klineberg and others during the war years. What had previously appeared to be racial differences in personality were not. If black American personality seemed different, it was a product of shared social circumstances, especially the pressures of institutionalized racism. Discrimination had constructed differences. Aggressive, antidiscriminatory policies could therefore eliminate them.
Among the social variables that produced black personality were black men's difficulties finding and keeping jobs and black women's tendency to "hold the purse-strings" and conduct their affairs indepen-
dently of men.[48] Psychologically speaking, Kardiner and Ovesey noted, this type of family pattern bred disrespect, emotionally and sexually unsatisfying relationships, an unnatural dominance of "loveless [female] tyrants" exerting harsh discipline over children, and an epidemic of social disorganization that flowed outward from the domestic sphere.[49]
In addition to being impoverished, discriminated against, and ghettoized, black Americans led wretched inner lives. Hostility and aggression were, according to the projective tests administered by Kardiner and Ovesey, the most typical traits in their subjects' personalities. Considering the immense frustrations caste threw in the way of the release of black feelings, was psychological damage really such a shocking re-suit? Instead of expressing their rage directly, it was channeled inward against the self, producing oceans of self-loathing that caused more and less severe instances of emotional incapacity. "The Negro," they concluded, "has no possible basis for a healthy self-esteem and every incentive for self-hatred."[50]
Kardiner and Ovesey were straightforward in their expression of sympathy for the plight of black Americans and direct about their anti-racist intentions: "Obviously, Negro self-esteem cannot be retrieved, nor Negro self-hatred destroyed, as long as the status is quo. What is needed by the Negro is not education, but re-integration. It is the white man who requires the education. There is only one way that the products of oppression can be dissolved, and that is to stop the oppression ."[51] "Stopping the oppression" and liberating the black personality clearly involved changing the attitudes of white Americans. It did not, however, involve any reassessment of what normal gender roles or families were like in spite of the fact that Kardiner and Ovesey considered the pressure to conform to white ideals "a slow but cumulative and fatal psychological poison."[52]
It was Kenneth Clark who put the final touches on the equation between the pathology of the ghetto and the destructive "cycle of family instability" in his famous 1965 study of Harlem, Dark Ghetto .[53] Making the same gendered assumptions that Frazier, Kardiner, and Ovesey had made before him, Clark wrote that, because of slavery's legacy, "psychologically, the Negro male could not support his normal desire for dominance."[54] Nothing about this statement—in particular its contention that male domination was "normal"—required any explanation. As we have seen, the disabilities of black masculinity had been a constant refrain since before World War II. Attacking dismal rates of black male un- and underemployment was, for Clark, simply the obvious way to correct what was wrong with the black family.
Kenneth Clark, before and during the 1960s, was always sensitive to the many and complex aspects of ghetto life. In his concern for issues of self-image and identity, he never lost sight of the realities of institutional power, and he had only sharp words for proposals that did not include the redistribution of material wealth and political authority. His view that matriarchy had created a "distorted masculine image," damaging men far more than women, however, reinforced the rationale that men were the primary concern of psychological theory.[55] Women's psychological state was considered only secondarily, and usually as a by-product of the male experience.
By the 1960s, policy's impact on male self-esteem would become a significant and official indicator of government's success or failure, even when social welfare programs specifically targeted women and children. That self-esteem became such an important factor in policy calculations, and in such a gendered fashion, can be attributed to the persuasiveness of the postwar experts reviewed in this chapter, the progress of the civil rights movement, and a social context hospitable to turning psychology into public policy for a variety of reasons, several of which are considered below.

LOVEFiLM Review
By Tom Charity from LOVEFiLM
This movie is far from perfect, but as blockbusters go John Carter has a lot more to offer than your typical corporate popcorn fodder. And it has everything a 12-year-old boy could dream of.

Cheesy, even ludicrous but highly enjoyable blockbuster Sci-fi fantasy adventure
By TheyCallMeMrGlass (44 reviews) from London , 06 Mar 2012[Highly rated reviewer]
I saw this at a preview screening in London.
I never read any of the books so only had a vague synopsis of the story just from trailers which didn't really impress me much.
Well, this turned out to be quite a blast. Its an enjoyable if very cheesy Sci-fi fantasy blockbuster. It has the spirit and energy of Flash Gordon including its own outrageously nonsensical but fun premise. It isn't as cheesy as that film but there is a definite lean towards it. The story is quite a novel mix of Planet of the Apes, Conan, Red Sonja, Avatar, Star Wars and Superman (yep this is a superhero movie too). We even have a western thrown in the mix at the beginning. I was going to say there isn't anything original here but how can I? This story was published in the 19th century so from that perspective, I can now see a lot of plot influences deriving from this in later SF/fantasy films.
A lot of money was spent on this movie and it shows. The special effects here are pretty awesome. Not necessarily ground breaking, everything on screen has been done before but its all smoothly done at a grand scale though not quite to the scale of the Star Wars prequels. Effects that stood out for me were John Carters 'Hulk' like jumps, Martian sky ship battles, green martians (as good as Avatar), and a cute monster dog sidekick that almost steels the show.
Another major feature of the film was the cinematography. Its quite spectacular and for a barren dead desert planet, its surprisingly stunning.
Taylor Kitsch who plays John Carter has just about enough screen presence portraying a likable anti hero with a punchy attitude and a sense of past history haunting him. Its a Han Solo type role but he plays it more brooding. There is even a Princess Leia and the age old storyline of helping a Princess to fight a war but each with their own agendas. Its all very clichéd, yet still enjoyable.
One of the biggest surprise for me was the 3D. It is a post conversion, which most often results in poorer quality than films which are filmed in 3D from the start. But an exception can be made here. This is hands down the best 3d conversion film I have seen. The 3d depth was outstanding and really shows its power in numerous landscape and action scenes. This is probably the 2nd best 3d live action film I've seen overall (either filmed in 3d or post converted) and I am normally anti-3d when it comes to live action films.
As much fun as I had with this, there is no denying that there is a lot wrong with it too. I could pick on flaws and lack of logic all day long with this film some of which are smack on the head stupid and some elements I desperately wished more or better development on. The dialogue while often funny, also often dive bombs into cringe-worthiness (much like a Lucas script), the developing romance was very disjointed and sometimes embarrassing (think Anakin and Padme levels of embarrassment). The 3 way war politics was not very clear cut, major characters not fleshed out enough and there's a whole lot of story loopholes. Yet there is still a lot more fun to be had to override those flaws.
I have a feeling that book lovers will be disappointed because I can detect a lot of back story is missing here and key characters seem very short changed on their development and motives (particularly with the green martians) which I am sure would have been fully fleshed out in the book. However, I reckon if you enjoy films like Thor and GI Joe, you'll have a great time with this. This wont be a classic or even a cult movie but it is a satisfying piece of cinema escapism. And its enough for me to want to read the books!- Was this review helpful to you?

By a customer , 12 Nov 2013I can't believe that some reviewers complain about the lack of reality! It's not supposed to have reality or believability. It's of a fairy tale genre. Full of monsters, adventure, good against evil, and is a romp. Sit back and enjoy.- Was this review helpful to you?

Boring CGI fest
By a customer , 15 Oct 2013As a sci-fi monster fest goes, this film has enough CGI to last you the year out. Unfortunately, it did little to captivate my imagination as it sidled with no obvious direction from one meaningless scene to another. Carter's ridiculous multi-storey jumps are reminiscent of those in Hulk and no more believable, and nothing that I saw made me care what happened to any of the characters. Don't get me wrong, the special effects are good but that's pretty much all this film has going for it in my opinion.- Was this review helpful to you?

By NaffFilm (7 reviews) , 13 Oct 2013I loved this film at first viewing. Second time it shows some faults BUT I still was very surprised at how much fun this was and so brilliantly realised. Good film and underrated.- Was this review helpful to you?

Laughable affront to superior antecedent sci-fi.
By Instant_Candour (4 reviews) , 10 Oct 2013A rambling, vacuous mess only party redeemed by the occasionally original, impressive visuals. Far too many steals from Star Wars and a confused narrative left me wishing this film was over before it was halfway through. This film requires such a suspension of disbelief that you might be in danger of ending up as a front-page news item entitled 'Cinema fan suffers schizophrenic episode'. Several unforgivably cheesy moments of dialogue were the final nail in the coffin for this extremely lazy effort.- Was this review helpful to you?

text: Home History Who Was the First Black Millionairess? 100 Amazing Facts About the Negro: Even if you know the answer, you don't know the whole story. By: Henry Louis Gates Jr. Posted: June 24 2013 12:55 AM 0 Madam C.J. Walker (A'Lelia Bundles/Madam Walker Family Collection) Editor's note: For those who are wondering about the retro title of this black-history series, please take a moment to learn about historian Joel A. Rogers, author of the 1934 book 100 Amazing Facts About the Negro With Complete Proof, to whom these "amazing facts" are an homage. (The Root) -- Amazing Fact About the Negro No. 37: Who was the first black American woman to be a self-made millionaire? A Different Kind of Holiday In last week's column, we explored African Americans' search for a holiday to rally around in remembrance of slavery and the hopes that freedom brought. Yet I must admit, having grown up in the 1950s watching my mother do other women's hair in our kitchen -- the blue Bergamot ointment, the gas stove, the hot comb, the peculiar smell of what I think of as "de-kinkalation" -- I used to have a different kind of holiday in mind, a strand of thought that only strengthened with time. As I explained in my memoir, Colored People, "So many black people still get their hair straightened that it's a wonder we don't have a national holiday for Madame C.J. Walker, who invented the process for straightening kinky hair, rather than for Dr. King." I was joking, of course, but mostly about the holiday; the history and politics of African-American hair have been as charged as any "do" in our culture, and somewhere in the story, Madam C.J. Walker usually makes an appearance. Most people who've heard of her will tell you one or two things: She was the first black millionairess, and she invented the world's first hair-straightening formula and/or the hot comb. Only one is factual, sort of, but the amazing story behind it and how Madam Walker used that accomplishment to help others as a job creator and philanthropist might be jarring -- and surprisingly empowering -- even to the skeptics. I know it was for me in revisiting her life for this column. Thanks to the work of numerous historians, among them Madam Walker's prolific great-granddaughter, A'Lelia Bundles, as well as Nancy Koehn and my colleagues at Harvard Business School, I no longer see one straight line from "Madam Walker's Wonderful Hair Grower" to current menus of extensions, braids and weaves; nor do I see a single line connecting this brilliant, determined person -- who struggled doggedly for a life out of poverty, and for black beauty, pride and her own legitimacy (in the face of black male resistance) as a black business woman during the worst of the Jim Crow era -- to the most successful black women on the stage today. "Up From" Sarah Breedlove On December 23, 1867, Sarah Breedlove was born to two former slaves on a plantation in Delta, La., just a few months after the second Juneteenth was celebrated one state over in Texas. While the rest of her siblings had been born on the other side of emancipation, Sarah was free. But by 7, she was an orphan toiling in those same cotton fields. To escape her abusive brother-in-law's household, Sarah married at 14, and together she and Moses McWilliams had one daughter, Lelia (later "A'Lelia Walker"), before Moses mysteriously died. Now that Reconstruction, too, was dead in the South, Sarah moved north to St. Louis, where a few of her brothers had taken up as barbers, themselves having left the Delta as "exodusters" some years before. Living on $1.50 a day as a laundress and cook, Sarah struggled to send Lelia to school -- and did -- while joining the A.M.E. church, where she networked with other city dwellers, including those in the fledgling National Association of Colored Women. In 1894, Sarah tried marrying again, but her second husband, John Davis, was less than reliable, and he was unfaithful. At 35, her life remained anything but certain. "I was at my tubs one morning with a heavy wash before me," she later told the New York Times. "As I bent over the washboard and looked at my arms buried in soapsuds, I said to myself: 'What are you going to do when you grow old and your back gets stiff? Who is going to take care of your little girl?' " Page 1 of 6 NEXT PAGE > Powered by Livefyre

great watch

Comments about Casio PAW1500T-7V Multi-Band 5 Atomic Solar Pathfinder Watch with Titanium Band:
Does it all
Comment on this review
Awesome Watch!!
By Szymon
from On the water, MD
About Me Athletic, Outdoorsman, Practical
This is a great watch. The only downside is the size, definitely not for small wrists. I have an 8" wrist, and the watch pretty much covers the entire space of the wrist. That being said, it is surprisingly light weight. I guess the titanium helps in this respect. The features are plentyful, and more than most people need, but for an outdoors guy like myself, I will probably use them all. Altimeter for hiking, barometer for weather predictions, and compass for direction. I also use the tide and moon charts, as I am an avid fisherman & hunter. I need to know when the tide is moving as that determines when fish are biting, same goes for the moon phase, and hunting. So far the tide graph seems reasonably accurate, but is not to be used for navigation, as it's not down to the minute. For those that need super accurate tide data, consult a tide chart for your particuar body of water.
Great Watch
By Ray
from Tulsa, OK
About Me Athletic, Practical
I use this watch everyday and it is great. I especially like the solor power. I have a citizens eco-drive watch and it's great not having to worry about battery replacement. This Pathfinder is much better than my previous 3 sensor model. I'm very pleased with this purchase.
Like James Bond!
By The Mad Backpacker
from Caro, Michigan
About Me Adventurous, Practical, Snazzy
My girlfriend got me this watch as a present for the new hiking / backpacking year. I'll admit, it's a little large, but I have rather large hands, so it fits well. Take the band to a jeweler if you need it adjusted, and they're more than happy to do it, probably for free. The temperature reading is off a bit, but that's because it's so close to your skin. Take the watch off and let it sit for 5 minutes and the temp will then be accurate. The barometric functions are great, and the piece du resistance is the moon phase and tide functions! They are great, and wonderfully accurate! Buy this watch, and you won't go wrong.
The best watch ever
By Scott teacher coach
from Fredericksburg Va
About Me Athletic, Modern, Practical
Daily use. It has everything I need and more. Very easy to use. Natturally a little bit of a learning curve but very minimal. Everything a watch should be. I can't think of anything else it could have.

Innovative farming practices being developed by Uncompahgre Valley producers hold the promise of resource conservation and improved water quality.
Some of the work in this local soil health initiative attracted a U.S. senator here last week to meet with forward-looking producers and see an example of the projects that are being installed.
U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet, a member of the Senate Agriculture Committee and chairman of the subcommittee on conservation, stopped in Olathe as part of a Western Slope swing and got a tour of new irrigation works at John and David Harold's farm.
The Harolds, a father and son who grow sweet corn and other crops, are using a drip irrigation system. Among the system's advantages are less water use and decreased deep percolation of irrigation water. Deep percolation contributes minerals loading to water runoff into downstream water courses and reservoirs.
The minerals loading issue especially has attracted attention from the federal government. Two years ago, Bennet and Sen. Mark Udall supported a successful local bid for a $1.35 million grant funding commitment for on-farm projects to improve soil health and water quality in the Uncompahgre Valley.
That grant program, now available for local producer participation, is being administered by a unique, first ever partnership between Delta County Economic Development and the Montrose Economic Development Corporation.
The grant money will be used to support local, on-farm projects and to create a database of information on water quality improvements and other benefits expected to come from the work.
As one producer told Bennet during his Olathe tour, "Tell your colleagues back in Washington that we are doing something to improve water quality in this valley."
