Free Download Violet M. Johnson, "The Other Black Bostonians: West Indians in Boston, 1900-1950"
English | 2006 | pages: 196 | ISBN: 0253347521 | PDF | 5,4 mb
This study of Boston’s West Indian immigrants examines the identities, goals, and aspirations of two generations of black migrants from the British-held Caribbean who settled in Boston between 1900 and 1950. Describing their experience among Boston’s American-born blacks and in the context of the city’s immigrant history, the book charts new conceptual territory. The Other Black Bostonians explores the pre-migration background of the immigrants, work and housing, identity, culture and community, activism and social mobility. What emerges is a detailed picture of black immigrant life. Johnson’s work makes a contribution to the study of the black diaspora as it charts the history of this first wave of Caribbean immigrants.

Perplexities concerning Scientific Theories persist because the usual ‘singled valued’ philosophical analyses cannot do justice to the proble- matic features of so complex a semantical entity. The components of theories are like law statements, and like models and hypotheses, being conceptual entities which are used in a variety of ways – not all ofthese being always compatible with the others. Thus many physicists characterize the classical laws of motion, as if they functioned in a definitional way.! But sometimes these laws seem remarkably empirica1. 2 Others characterize such laws as ‘conventional’; they shape entire disciplines much as the rules shape the game of chess. 3 Law statements are not exclusively any one of these – definitions, factual claims or conventions. They are all these things.
