Item The Butler-Tarkington Neighborhood Association and the Fight Against Residential Segregation in Indianapolis(2021-07) Prebish, Lydia Anne; Morgan, Anita; Mullins, Paul; Robertson, NancyThe Butler-Tarkington Neighborhood Association (BTNA) is a community group organized in 1956 by a few concerned couples living in the Butler-Tarkington neighborhood on the north side of Indianapolis. These couples, both Black and white, witnessed a demographic change in their community as their white neighbors fled for the suburbs as the black population expanded. The BTNA, inspired to create an organization that would promote residential integration rather than continued segregation, worked to educate neighbors on the realities of integration, promote neighborhood conversation and comradery, and worked to influence the local and state governments on the impact of segregation that harmed their community. One of the first neighborhood organizations of its kind in the country, the BTNA still exists today, but little is known about their early history. This paper looks at the BTNA’s efforts to promote residential segregation in their community through activism, conversation, and legislative change. Additionally, this paper analyzes the BTNA success in its efforts to integrate the community during their first decade of existence.Item Discrimination in Employment under Title VII(Education Law Association, 2015) Nguyễn, David Hòa Khoa; Mooney Kahn, KristaThis chapter addresses the burden of proof applicable to cases of employment discrimination, as developed in litigation involving Title VII and applicable to other federal laws prohibiting discrimination in employment.Item How bigotry crushed the dreams of an all-black Little League team(The Conversation US, Inc., 2016-08-19) Lamb, Chris; Journalism and Public Relations, School of Liberal ArtsItem How Jackie Robinson’s wife, Rachel, helped him break baseball’s color line(The Conversation US, Inc., 2019-01-30) Lamb, Chris; Journalism and Public Relations, School of Liberal ArtsItem How politics played a major role in the signing of Jackie Robinson(The Conversation US, Inc., 2016-04-12) Lamb, Chris; Journalism and Public Relations, School of Liberal ArtsItem In a state wrought with racial tension, Jackie Robinson suited up for his first spring training game(The Conversation US, Inc., 2016-03-16) Lamb, Chris; Journalism and Public Relations, School of Liberal ArtsItem Indiana State Board of Health Monthly Bulletin, 1909 Vol. 12 No. 4(1909) Barnard, H.
