Despite extensive accounts of civil rights mobilization and narratives of state building, there has been surprisingly little research that explicitly examines the importance and consequence that civil rights activism has had for the process of state building in American political and constitutional development. Through a sweeping archival analysis of the NAACP's battle against lynching and mob violence from 1909 to 1923, this book examines how the NAACP raised public awareness, won over American presidents, and secured the support of Congress. In the NAACP's most far-reaching victory, the Supreme Court ruled that the constitutional rights of black defendants were violated by a white mob in the landmark criminal procedure decision Moore v. Dempsey. This book demonstrates the importance of citizen agency in the making of new constitutional law in a period unexplored by previous scholarship"--20aNational Association for the Advancement of Colored People.94060317aUnited StatesbSupreme Court.940604 7aCivil rights zUnited States.2BUEsh940606 7aAfrican Americans xCivil rights xHistory y20th century.2BUEsh940605 7aAfrican Americans xLegal status, laws, etc.2BUEsh940607 7aCivil rights movements zUnited StatesxHistory y20th century.2BUEsh940610 7aLynchingxLaw and legislation zUnited States.2BUEsh940608 7aConstitutional lawzUnited States.2BUEsh940609 2BUEsh bLLAAWWcAugust 2016  2ddce22k323.0973 FRA c22095d22067 00102ddc40708BaccahaMAINbMAINc1STd2016-08-02ePurchaseg513.00h26080l1o323.0973 FRAp000033047r2025-07-15 00:00:00s2022-04-17v641.25yBB 00102ddc40708BaccahaMAINbMAINc1STd2016-08-02ePurchaseg513.00h26080l0o323.0973 FRAp000033048r2025-07-15 00:00:00v641.25yBB
