Abstract:
Sorry, the full text of this article is not available in Huskie Commons. Please click on the alternative location to access it. ; The purpose of this study was to determine if the writings of Ida B. Wells could be considered a social justice curriculum having the purpose of educating a black and white adult population concerning the civil and human rights they held in common under the American Constitution, and to ascertain if the Utilitarian attributes of Wells' writings were those upon which she built such a curriculum. Wells' archival writings relevant to lynching and other abuses were analyzed and a notational system assigned to the writings' conceptual patterns which were formulary to a dialectic of social justice. Findings indicated that Wells relied upon the doctrinal creeds of an American Utilitarian dispensation to educate a black and white, American and European adult population concerning hegemonic corruption in the granting, specifically to blacks, of an equal treatment under the law.
