words only definitions & notes
  1. antebellum
    belonging to a period before a war
    Leon Litwack’s 1961 book, North of Slavery , punctured the myth that most antebellum white Northerners were either abolitionists or open to the possibility of full civil rights for African Americans.
  2. amnesia
    partial or total loss of memory
    As I read Loewen’s book, however, it seemed to me that white Northerners chose a different path: amnesia.
  3. apartheid
    a social policy of racial segregation
    Warley barred such forms of state-mandated apartheid, it did nothing to limit residential segregation in the growing suburbs of twentieth-century America.
  4. aptly
    in a competent capable manner
    Suburbanization stemmed from many forces, as Loewen demonstrates, but it was almost always interwoven with the struggle to create racially and culturally homogenous communities that might aptly be called “sundown suburbs.”
  5. sociologist
    a social scientist who studies the institutions and development of human society
    By training Loewen is a sociologist (he is also a Unitarian Universalist), but he deftly addresses racial tensions in the changing historical context of the Civil War and post–Civil War years.
