Virginia was a battleground state in the struggle to implement Brown v. Board of Education, with one of the South’s largest and strongest NAACP units fighting against a program of noncompliance crafted by the state’s political leaders. Keep On Keeping On offers a detailed examination of how African Americans and the NAACP in Virginia successfully pursued a legal agenda that provided new educational opportunities for the state’s black population in the face of fierce opposition from segregationists and the Democratic Party of Harry F. Byrd Sr. Keep On Keeping On is the first book to offer a comprehensive view of African Americans’ efforts to obtain racial equality in Virginia in the later twentieth century. Brian J. Daugherity considers the relationship between the various levels of the NAACP, the ideas and actions of other African American organizations, and the stances of Virginia’s political leaders, white liberals and moderates, and segregationists. In doing so, the author provides a better understanding of the connections between the actions of white political leaders and those of black civil rights activists working to bring about school desegregation. Blending social, legal, southern, and African American history, this book sheds new light on the civil rights movement and white resistance to civil rights in Virginia and the South.
This is the story of Ron Davis, a charismatic young man who struggled to beat a 12 year addiction to drugs, only to be brutally murdered at the age of 39. The story of his parents, Brooks and Jean Davis, two ordinary people with extraordinary courage, who barely overcome one tragedy, only to be dealt another. A story of faith. Though Ron stumbled many times on the path to overcoming his addiction, he never once gave up the fight, always believing that victory was possible. A story of hope. Just as Ron never lost faith in himself, Brooks and Jean never lost faith in their son. Nor did they stop believing that the man responsible for Ron's murder would eventually be brought to justice-despite a crushing series of blows in a legal battle that lasted nearly eight years. A story of miracles and promise. Over ten years after his death, Ron Davis continues to touch the lives of a great many people. His legacy serves as a reminder that good can still come from even the worst of circumstances.

At the heart of this book lies a creative, yet bold and inspiring manifesto of poetry, essays, and spoken words conceptualized with the purpose of educating and motivating people of the Black/Afrikan collective to find their place in our struggle and to take part in it. Concisely placed within three chapters entitled 2 Black-2 Strong, Payin Proper Respects, and Man Up Time, the author seizes to make his voice heard and presence felt on the dynamics of our struggle and the lack of voices and pro-active presence that inevitably seems to make our struggle one of capitulation. Written as a combustible result of dissatisfaction, pride, love and self-identity, with a dire concern that refuses to be extinguished, this book must be read with the objective of harboring the heat of social truth until it's your (the readers) turn to regurgitate what you poetically feel you must say...
