An Example for All the Land reveals Washington, D.C. as a laboratory for social policy in the era of emancipation and the Civil War. In this panoramic study, Kate Masur provides a nuanced account of African Americans' grassroots activism, municipal politics, and the U.S. Congress. She tells the provocative story of how black men's right to vote transformed local affairs, and how, in short order, city reformers made that right virtually meaningless. Bringing the question of equality to the forefront of Reconstruction scholarship, this widely praised study explores how concerns about public and private space, civilization, and dependency informed the period's debate over rights and citizenship.

Excerpt from Washington, Our Example: The Father of a Nation Will Restore It to Peace In June, 1775, General Washington was sent to the relief of Massachusetts, the harbor Of Boston having been blockaded by a British fleet, and in December fol lowing he wrote to Congress as follows: It has been represented to me that the free negroes, who have served in the army at Cambridge, are very much dissatisfied at being discarded. As it is to be apprehended that they may seek employ in the ministerial army, I have pre sumed to depart from the resolution respecting them, and have given license for their being enlisted. If this is disapproved of by Congress, I will put a stop to it. Mr. Sparks, the publisher of the writings of Washing ton, explains the above letter as follows: At a meeting of the general Officers previously to the arrival of the Committee from Congress in camp, it was unanimously resolved that it was not expedient to enlist slaves into the new army, and by a large majority, negroes Of every description were excluded from enlistment. When the subject was referred to the Committee in conference, this decision was confirmed. In regard to free negroes, however, the resolve was not adhered to, and probably for the reason here mentioned by Washington.

Founded in March 1912, DC branch of the NAACP quickly became the leading organization advocating for the city's Black community. President Woodrow Wilson's institution of Jim Crow segregation in the federal government in the spring of 1913 galvanized the African American community of DC and the NAACP launched a formidable crusade against Wilson's racist policies. As the preeminent civil rights organization of the nation's capital, it also developed a dual role as a watchdog body to prevent the passage of legislation in Congress that negatively affected African Americans. Archivist and historian Derek Gray chronicles and analyzes the work of the DC NAACP through the civil rights era to the achievement of Home Rule in the District.
