教育和教育质量的提高被广泛认为是二十世纪黑人经济进步的主要贡献者。本文调查了本世纪上半叶南方黑人教育改善的根源，并论证了社会活动，特别是全国有色人种协进会诉讼和私人慈善事业，在提高公立学校教育的质量和可用性方面的重要作用。许多学者将教育视为社会活动主义在解释黑人经济进步方面的竞争对手，但这种观点忽视了慈善和法律干预在促进教育方面的重要作用。
Improvements in education and educational quality are widely acknowledged to be major contributors to black economic progress in the twentieth century. This paper investigates the sources of improvement in black education in the South in the first half of the century and demonstrates the important roles of social activism, especially NAACP litigation and private philanthropy, in improving the quality and availability of public schooling. Many scholars view education as a rival to social activism in explaining black economic progress, but such a view misses the important role of philanthropic and legal interventions in promoting education.
