Terry, Wallace Missing Pages: Black Journalists of Modern America: An Oral History
Basic Books 2007 0786719931 / 9780786719938 Paperback Near fine n/a Paperback
New. Near fine in publisher's slightly rubbed decorated wrappers. Available in our UK premises for prompt dispatch worldwide.From Booklist: Lamenting histories of journalism that omit the contributions of black reporters, Terry, a well-regarded journalist and author of Bloods: Black Veterans of the Vietnam War (1985), offers a look at the unacknowledged work of pioneering black reporters. Nineteen black journalists recall the particular perspectives they brought to coverage of events from World War II, the civil rights movement, the Vietnam War, and civil war in Africa, covering aspects of race that fall under the radar of white reporters. Among the contributors: Ethel Payne, who, as a service-club hostess in Tokyo, chronicled the failure of General MacArthur to desegregate the armed services despite President Truman's orders; Max Robinson, who faced the vicissitudes of being the first black news anchor, under deadline pressure and nightly scrutiny of white viewers; Leon Dash, who engaged in discussions with guerrillas in Angola about issues of race in America; and Ed Bradley, who joined the venerable staff of 60 Minutes but maintained his own inimitable style. Terry, who died in 2003, here fills in gaps in the history of modern American journalism. Bush, Vanessa Copyright ¬ American Library Association. All rights reserved Missing Pages is a deeply moving, affecting book, truly a bright and shining light. -- Walter Anderson, ParadeA treasure trove of history. -- Pulitzer Prize winner Cynthia Tucker, Columbia Journalism Review
