When a worthy text,assigned as a task in a thoughtfullydesigned course, truly engages ayoung mind with the author and thelasting problems of mankind amidwhich the student recognizes his own,when discussion with teacher and fel-low students becomes a discussionwithin the student himself, then thething of rare value occurs for which ateacher means to live: a young personlearns to reach, by his own efforts, forthe fuller humanity within. With theirclear and unanimous testimonials ourstudents acclaim Amy Kass as the in-fectiously enthusiastic and quietly wiseguide in their own self-discovery.

It prospers amid congenial chaos to the dismay of organizedathletic conférences. Yet the athleticorganizations turn again and again toHaydon to lead American teams in international compétition."In our small collège, varsity run-ners finish their chemistry labs beforethey go to the athletic field, and whenthey get there Ted Haydon tells themnot to take athletic compétition tooseriously.

The Magazineasked that question of the remaining900 members of the Class of 1930.Among the 156 alumni who sent backthe questionnaires, the overwhelmingmajority said "Yes."Our survey was highly informai;we présent some of the highlights.We asked the class why they hadchosen to corne to The University ofChicago.Lucille Simon, a retired Chicagoteacher, said:"I chose it because of its highscholastic status.""I considered Chicago a dynamicinstitution, top-flight in every way,"wrote Elise R. Schweich, (Mrs. JosephHenry), of St. Louis, MO, also a retired teacher.Commented Mary Elizabeth Bald-ridge Connors of Wheaton, IL, a retired high school principal:"Choose? In my day you wentwhere your father sent you. But I wasalways happy with his choice."Jérôme N. Sampson of San Francisco, a retired lobbyist, was candid:"I lived four blocks away."Many members of the class are retired; some are still busy with careers;a few hâve had second careers.Among the respondents thelargest number, forty-five, reportedthat they had chosen careers in éducation. Twenty-two had been elementaryor high school teachers or principals;twenty-one taught in collèges; one wasa collège administrator; one was a testanalysis consultant.Of the rest, twenty-one said theyare or were business persons; twenty-six are homemakers; sixteen arelawyers; ten are communicators, (wri-ters, editors, advertising executives);three are research scientists; six aresocial workers; five are governmentcareerists; two are secretaries; one is aminister; one is a farmer (female). (Ifthe figures don't add up to 156, it's because of second careers.)Though the majority of thèsealumni are retired, they are still an ex-tremely active group of people. Theirfavorite pursuits are travelling andreading, but they also are engaged in such diverse activities as back-packing,bird-watching, bridge-playing, book-writing, canoeing, fishing, folk-dancing, golfing, horseback riding, re-cording for the blind, scuba diving,snorkeling, woodworking, and practic-ing yoga.Our question: "What strikes youas similar/different about conditionsfacing the Class of 1930 and the Classof 1980?" brought a flood of thought-ful replies."The Class of 1980 is very likely abetter cross section of our citizenry,"said Ruth Holmes Prior, a homemakerfrom Frederick, MD."In gênerai, adult society in 1930faced the future with more unwar-ranted optimism than does its 1980counterpart," observed W. JamesLyons of Sudbury, MA, a retired research physicist."Things were similar in one respect — the Class of 1980 is faced withan économie situation which istroublesome and difficult," wroteThaïes N. Lenington, of Edina, MN,who is retired from a managementposition with Prudential Insurance Co.of America. "But one of the différences is that there were fewer collègegraduâtes [in the country] in 1930,hence I think an individual had agreater sensé of achievement."Léo Rosten of New York, NY,who went on to become a famousauthor, (THE EDUCATION OFH*Y*M*A*N K*A*P*L*A*N is his mostwidely-known work), commenteddrily,"We knew we would hâve towork for a living."Joseph Berkenfield of Beachwood,OH, chairman of Herbert Laronce,Inc., a commercial real estate broker-age, shared Rosten's view:"We didn't know where our nextmeal was coming from; they hover be-tween recruiters' offers."Louis H. Engel, Jr., a retired editor and advertising executive, agreed:"The Dépression meant we had toget a job — any kind of a job — and holdit, essentially. This eliminated any pos-sibility of obtaining further profession-al training."We asked thèse alumni what thevhad enjoyed most about their expérience at Chicago. Knox Hill, who retires this year asprofessor of philosophy at the University, but will remain as secretary ofthe Faculties, said:"I liked its spirit of free inquiry,and the extent to which each of itsparts is concerned with the otherparts."Harold Haydon, who also spenthis career teaching at the University,(he's emeritus professor of art, stillactive as an artist, and art critic for theChicago Sun-Times), wrote:"I liked the combination of first-rate académie studies and teachers,with top-drawer athletics. I ran forAmos Alonzo Stagg and Ned Mer-riam."Hilding B. Carlson, of Soquel, CA,a retired professor (San Diego StateUniversity), wrote:"It was the most intellectuallystimulating educational institutionwith which I hâve ever been con-nected."Classmate Ralph McCallister ofChapel Hill, NC, who is retired from acareer as an educator, (University ofNorth Carolina, and a director of Chat-auqua, NY), commented:"The diversity and high compétence of the faculty, and the samecharacteristics of the students general-ly [pleased me]. Pluralism was notonly an idea and an idéal, but waspracticed. I was introduced to the arts,to the life of the mind, and was freedfrom a mass of inhibiting myths.Arnold Harly of Port Washington,NY, who is président of LacledeRadio, Inc., wrote that he liked thesurvey courses, and". . . the cinnamon toast at theC-shop."(Alas, Arnold, the cinnamon toastis a victim of the fast-food phenom-enon.)When asked what she had likedleast about the University, Winifred E.Day Kirk of Tucson, AZ, who stilloccasionally teaches as adjunct assistant professor of speech and hearingsciences at the University of Arizona,summed it up for générations of students when she said:"Crossing the Midwav in winter!"For individual notes on thèse stal-wart members of the Class of 1930, werefer you to Page 27. ¦4ViewpointISLAMWhy the Iranians speak with forked tongue,teffing the U.S. "Get Out"— and yet, "Stay"By Marvin ZonisThe failure of what is now knownas the "Jimmv Carter DésertClassic" is, in my view, attribut-able not to incompétence, stupidity, orclumsiness, but in fact to two verydifférent causes. First of ail there issomething drastically wrong with themechanisms by which American for-eign policy is made. Secondly, thereis a very striking misconception aboutthe nature of Islam and its politicalconséquences in the contemporaryworld.The first problem is a failure inthe foreign policy-making apparatus. Icharacterize it as a persistent failure todevelop a cohérent world view, whichis then translated into a set of policiesbased on that world view. I see incohérence and instabilitv to such anextent that the United States pursuesincompatible foreign policies simul-taneously. To me, this is best reflectednot by the résignation of Secretary ofState Cyrus Vance, but by his lengthytenure in office. It is not that ZbigniewMarvin Zonis, associate professor in theDepartment of Behaviorial Sciences and theCollège, is former director of The Centerfor Middle Eastern Studies (at the University). He is the author of The PoliticalElite of Iran and is writing a book on thehistory of the Iranian révolution. This article is adapted from a talk lie gave beforeBoston area alumni. Brzezinski "won," but rather that hedid not "win" for over three-and-a-half years. We've had two very différent world visions operating at thehighest levels of the American govern-ment. On one hand there has been theinternational lawyer, negotiator, andarbitrator, and on the other hand, thetough-minded master of real-politik,the calculating anti-Communist.Too many American foreign policymoves hâve contained enough of eachof thèse visions of the world to abso-lutely guarantee failure. We stand upto Soviet aggression everywhere, butwe take no action. We are committedto greater military preparedness, butnot if we hâve to significantlv increasethe militarv budget. We will end ourdependence on Arab oil, but not if itmeans a substantial decrease in ourenergy consumption. What more suc-cessful capstone to this national poli-tics of ambivalence than a rescue mission, which through its inadéquateplanning, faulty exécution, and incompétent conception, was a recipe forfailure and international humiliation?My own belief about the rescuemission is that it represented the twovisions which I hâve described, bothof which exist because they representtwo key aspects of Président Carter'spersonality. He is responsible for thepersistence of this split within thepolicy-making apparatus and the res cue mission was a perfect manifestation of the split. We demonstrated ourBrzezinski toughness and boldnessand took décisive action, but we madesure that we failed so that we couldpursue the policy of Vance the negotiator.The second great failing in ourdealings with Middle Eastern countriesis a misreading of the nature of Islam,and its place in Muslim countries forthe foreseeable future. It seems to methat the United States, in particular,but Europe as well, will hâve a compli-cated, troubling, occasionally en-riching, but always difficult set of relations with the Islamic world, especiallythe Arab States, in the next décade.For a variety of powerful reasons,Islam and the Arab world will neithergo away nor leave us alone. Thatseems to me to reverse the typicalunderstanding we hâve of relations be-tween super-powers and the so-calledthird world. I wish to focus hère noton the fact that the super-powers continue to meddle in the affairs of de-veloping societies; that has alreadybeen dealt with by many people.Rather, I wish to discuss the fact thatthe Islamic world, and in particular theArabs, will not allow us to stop med-dling in their own affairs.Lest this sound too outlandish, letme try to put a new cast on the hos-tage crisis in Iran. Notice that the Iran-10 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE/September 1980Marvin Zonisians are protesting the history of thealleged American crimes in Iran. Theyseek to end ail forms of U.S. intervention in their internai affairs. Yet whatmechanism hâve they chosen toaccomplish this policy? The very policywhich will guarantee our continued in-volvement in the internai affairs ofIranian politics. If there is one way tokeep us in Iran, it is for Iranians tokeep holding our diplomats. That willinsure that we never leave them alone.In a real and fundamental sensé theIranians very deeply do not want to beleft alone. On the contrary, it is theywho are desperately holding on to us.There is a kind of "stickiness" inthe relationships between the newIslamic Republic of Iran and the United States which is being repeated ailover the Middle East. The problem isrooted in the powerful ambivalencefelt by the Muslim peoples toward theWest. There is an absolute reluctanceto acknowledge their desires to hâveus présent and an intense wish thatwe would go away. At the same time,mechanisms are constantly being cre-ated for us to stay.There are économie, political, andideological reasons for this involve-ment.Economically, we are tied by oil.Obviously, they need us to be dépendent on their petroleum, because theyhâve now corne to require the money we pay for their oil.What is so terribly powerful aboutthe interdependence bred on thebuying and selling of oil, from theMiddle Eastern point of view, is theextent to which Middle Eastern expor-ters hâve been able to use ail of the re-sources which we are providing. In1967 Saudi Arabia earned $843 millionfrom the export of petroleum. In 1980Saudi Arabia will earn nearly $94 billion from the export of petroleum.And yet it is estimated that in 1980 theSaudi Arabian government will hâveno petro-dollars surplus. That is, theywill hâve found a way to spend ailthèse $94 billion. I think we can expectSaudi Arabia to seek to keep oil production very high, to raise such hugesums. (The Saudis also could seek tomaintain revenues by joining thosewho would drive prices up beyond the120 per cent increases of 1979, by cut-ting production and raising pricesmore dramatically.)And there is another économiefactor besides their need for oil revenues which leads them to maintaina close involvement with us; they alsoneed someplace to spend the money.And they are spending it, obviously,on goods and services produced in theWest.Politically, the Arab states and theUnited States are tied together in anumber of complicated ways. One source of conflict is the ambivalencethèse states feel about the rôle of theUnited States vis-a-vis the Arab-Israeliconflict.There is a gênerai récognition thatfor the foreseeable future, perhaps thebest way to solve what is now euphe-mistically referred to as "the Palestin-ian problem" is for the United Statesto pressure the Israeli government todo something acceptable to the Arabsin the occupied territories. But there isalso another, simultaneously held be-lief, that the United States never willdo anything significant to push Israëlto act in a way which would be acceptable to the Arabs in the occupied terri-tories.So the Arabs are left with terribleambivalence. They need us, but we'renot going to do what they want us to.Perhaps, if they only did the rightthing, we would get the Israelis to act.Once again, the Arabs perceive thatthey are in a terribly difficult, in fact,intolérable position, vis-a-vis the West.In addition, they are very concernée! about the protection which theUnited States can extend to themagainst the threat of Soviet invasion,and more important than that, continued Soviet pénétration of MiddleEastern states.The extent to which the Sovietshâve increased their level of activitiesin those states which will allow themnto do so is staggering: North Yemen,South Yemen, Libya, Iraq, and Syriaare particular targets of Soviet activity.Some of thèse states hâve become bastions of Soviet, Cuban, and East Ger-man activity.You may be aware that right nowthe United States is struggling withthe issue of whether or not to préposition military supplies in the Middle East. The argument is that a rapiddeployment force of 120,000 to 210,000men delivered into distant régionswould be effective only if the materialwhich they required were already onhand. But that nécessitâtes difficultand costly choices on location, nature,quality of equipment, servicing, andthe like.At this moment Libya has over1,000 Soviet tanks in its military stores,many of which are the most advancedtanks that the Soviet Army has avail-able for export. In the Libyan armythere are less than 300 tanks. What areail those other tanks doing there? Theanswer is that the Soviet Union hasbeen pre-positioning military equipment in friendly countries in this région for some time. Yet the UnitedStates seems to hâve difficulty makingthe hard choices which must be madeto limit Soviet incursions in the région.So there are, in the Middle East,strongly anti-Communist states whichsee us as a not very good hope, butthe only hope, for preventing the con-tinued expansion of Soviet influence.They clearly perceive that influence asinimical not only to their interests asrulers, but also to their interests asMuslims.Finally, there are ideologicalreason's which cause the Arab states toview us with ambivalence. And thisset of factors seems to me to be themost powerful of ail, because thèse aredeeply rooted in Islam itself.Islam is in the minds of true be-lievers a perfect religion. It is perfectin the sensé that it represents comple-tion. You will recall that The ProphetMohammed represents the "seal" ofail prophets. One important thingabout Mohammed is that he is the lastprophet who ever was, or will be. Heis the last prophet who will bring di vine révélation. There will be othergreat thinkers, but there will be nonewith divine révélation, a chain whichbegan with Adam, Noah, Abraham,Moses, and Jésus, and was sealed byThe Prophet. In short, mankind hasbeen delivered the complète messagethrough The Prophet Mohammed.In an interview that I had withAyotallah Khomeini, he assured methat the Islamic Republic of Iran wouldwork because Islam, which is its guid-ing force, was "the complète faith."Islam embodied everything that theWest has separated from religion: économies, politics, social relationships,and culture.Not only is Islam complète, and,therefore, superior to ail other religions, but Muslims hâve taken it uponthemselves to spread the récognitionof this fact. It is not enough for Muslims to recognize the superiority oftheir own faith; others must do so aswell. Others must express a récognition of the completeness and perfection of Islam. One reason for therather shrill insistence of Muslims thatwe pay attention to them and respecttheir religion is that our récognitionundergirds their belief that their religion is complète and perfect.The "abode of Islam" will reignpowerfully, of course, only insofar asit maintains interaction with the West.The game is in the interaction. For thestatus of Islam is a relative one, deter-mined by comparison with Europe andthe United States. And note, the interaction, at least for the time being,takes the form of a "zero-sum" compétition. There can only be one win-ner, and the gains of the winner mustbe at the expense of the loser. This isnot independence as conventionallydefined, but compétitive interdepend-ence.The powerful désire to eliminatethe long-standing sensé of humiliationand the need for ideological support ofIslam will lead, for the next décade, tofurther exacerbating, aggravating, anddifficult interactions between the Westand the Muslim world.If this analysis has any validity thebasic conclusion is that there are limitsto the capacity of the United States to improve relations with the Muslimworld. We can and should alter thoseof our policies which are not productive and which contribute to the difficult relations. But essentially, we willbe locked t^gether in troubling tieswith the Islamic world, irrespective ofwhat western policies are adopted.Again, if this analysis is correct, itsuggests that the existence of the stateof Israël has only limited relevance forMuslim interactions with the West.Certainly, Israeli policies can contribute to assuaging or exacerbating anyMuslim sensé of weakness or humiliation, and in that way, contribute tosmoothing or worsening the difficul-ties of dealing with Muslims. Buteventually, opposition to the existenceof Israël as a state is a îationalizationfor opposition to the West, whichwould exist even if there were no Jew-ish state in the Middle East.There has been a massive loss offaith in the Islamic world — much likeits often noted counterpart in theWest. In some very bizarre sensé, non-Muslims are asked to contribute to re-pairing that rift in the sacred fabnc byrecognizing, or mirroring, if you like,the completeness of Islam. And yet because Muslims also believe their religion is complète and true, they arecaught in something of a dilemma,both superior to and yet needing theWest. The resuit will be more discom-fort and ambivalence in their dealingswith non-Muslims. There will be whatmany of us perceive as an almost défensive kind of grandness on the partof those Muslims most caught in theambivalence.I think that thèse issues accountfor aspects of the passion which manyMuslims show in their thinking aboutIsraël. Thev see the state of Israël asrepresenting the embodiment of co-lonialism. Two conclusions follow:Israël was created because of thegreater strength of European powersin comparison to Muslim states whichwere weak and unable to défend theirinterests. That weakness was a sign ofGod's disfavor.Now, many Muslims understandGod's favor to hâve been restored tothem. There are many signs. The great12 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE/September 1980"We are going to see increasingefforts by the Islamic world to win thehearts and minds of the American people."wealth flowing to Muslim states fromthe sale of oil is one indication.Another is the "victory" won by Islamic states in the 1973 war againstIsraël. More recently, the people ofIran were able to overthrow the shah,and with him, "the great satan," "theworld-devouring mother of corruption," (as some Iranians refer to theUnited States). Ail of thèse are suresigns that God is again on the side ofIslam. After centuries of feeling weakand despised, the tables hâve beenturned, and Islam will again reignpowerfully.Since we are going to continuehaving relations with Muslim states,we must try to understand thèseissues so that we contribute to anamélioration, a modération, of their in-tensity. It will help if we can understand what Muslims are saying, whenthey talk to us. Committed as I am topsycho-social studies, I am a great be-liever in the concept of psychic reality.The subjective, psychological aspectsof international relations must beaccepted as possessing a reality everybit as powerful as so-called objectivefactors or interests. Moreover, peoples'words are not the only or necessarilythe best guides to understanding theirsensé of psychic reality. I think peopleoften say, indirectly, what is truly ontheir minds. I believe that when oneinteracts with others one needs to payattention to their words, but not toaccept those words as a complètestatement of what is, in fact, on theirminds. I am forever stunned by theextent to which so many of us are will-ing to do just that on a personal level,but not on a grander scale.When it cornes to the Middle East,we are going to straighten things outby telling others what the "facts" are.We pull out the "objective" facts, as ifpsychic reality does not operate in relations with other peoples. But, clearlyit is necessary to pay close attentionand respond to the psychic realities ofthe peoples of the Muslim MiddleEast. We must understand what is important to them and not insist thatthey attend to our définition of therelevant "facts."I also think we are going to see in creasing efforts by the Islamic worldto win the hearts and minds of theAmerican people. Since Muslims hâvethe financial capability, and a growingappréciation of the importance of public opinion in the West, there will be atremendous investment by Islamicstates in ail forms of intervention inAmerican society, from the hiring ofpublic relations firms to massive support of political candidates.In the next décade, we will seeAmerican blacks singled out for veryimportant attention from the Islamicworld. Islam will work to support theblack community, the black move-ment, and fostering of black claims ofexploitation and racism in America.Ail of this suggests that America'sstake in the successful rule of Président Anwar Sadat of Egypt is abso-lutely astronomical. What troubles meis that while American aid is almostpouring into Egypt, there seems littlesensé of crisis of the conséquences forthe West if Sadat fails. The leader ofthe most powerful Islamic state hascommitted himself to a close and positive relation with the United States; heclearly has staked his longevity on thenotion that such ties will do the mostfor his people. Unless our aid is trans-lated into substantial payoffs to theEgyptian people, he and his approachwill hâve proved fatally wrong. Thatlesson will not be lost on other Islamicleaders. The conséquence will be anexacerbation of our already troubledrelations with them.What I see instead of this appréciation is a failure to understand Islamic sensibilities, another "désert clas-sic," if you will. Our policy is embod-ied, for me, in the plans for newbuildings which the American government has decided it needs to housethe American personnel who will besent to Cairo, for our increased aidprogram. An American architect hasdesigned a wonderful, twenty-storybuilding to be put up in the center ofthe American Embassy complex,which is in the heart of Cairo. Now ifyou need a symbol to announce to theworld that Sadat is the "running dog"of American imperialism, what couldbe better than the newest and tallest skyscraper in town? The Americanprésence should be invisible. Instead,it will dominate the landscape.Finally, my argument leads to theconclusion that relations with theIslamic Middle East will be difficult because the level of ambivalence towardus is so high.It would be much easier to workout a relationship, as I hope we do,with Sadat, if there were not thisambivalence. But it is there, and weshould not fall into the trap of think-ing that we can somehow control thesituation and override that ambivalence. That is a legacy left over froman American sensé of imperialism. Thequestion is not what we can do tochange this. It is rather to identify future American policies which do notmobilize the négative sentiments, but,to the contrary, demonstrate a sensi-tive appréciation of them.We must be prepared for what iscoming, try to understand what itmeans, and not get taken in by its su-perficial manifestations. We must tryto understand what Muslim peoplesare saying to us in terms of their senséof psychic reality, not ours. We mustthen respond to their psychic reality inways which will minimize the long-term négative conséquences, and facili-tate their resolving their ambivalencesboth positively and quickly. Then wecan get on with the job of buildingmore important, meaningful politicalrelations with the Islamic world for thelonger run. ¦Suggested further reading:Baraheni, Reza.

Alongwith his double name, JohnHope Franklin's parents be-stowed on their son their own deeplyheld belief that if one is to succeed ina difficult and frequently hostileworld, one must equip oneself with apositive and unshakeable self-image.Today, at sixty-five, Franklin isone of the nation's most distinguishedhistorians, widely respected by his fel-low scholars for his work on the his-tory of the South and for illuminatingthe rôle of the Negro in American his-tory. But along the way to achievingsuch eminence, Franklin often had tosuffer being patronized, or cruellyostracized, because of his skin color.Armed with the self-pride which hisparents helped him to acquire, Franklin was able to look at those whowould belittle him, and to think:"There must be something wrongwith them, which causes them to wantto do this. What they are doing ismorally degrading to them, but not tome."Franklin, the John Matthews Man-ly Distinguished Service Professor inthe Department of History and theCollège, is taking a three-year leave-of-absence from the University to becomea Senior Mellon Fellow at the NationalCenter for the Humanities in Durham,NC."The University suggested I take aleave-of-absence, instead of emeritusstatus," he explained, leaning backcomfortably in his chair, in the SocialSciences Building. "It gives me free-dom to corne back and teach a coursenow and then, if I want. And I hâveabout ten doctoral students I want tohelp to finish." As a Mellon Fellow, Franklin explained, he'll be free "to do anything Iwant."That means the freedom to workfull-time on at least two books."I hope to finish a project forwhich I've been collecting papers forthirty-five years," he said. "I'm writ-ing a biography of George WashingtonWilliams, who was an Afro-Americanhistorian, soldier, clergyman, editor,legislator, and lawyer. He lived from1849-1891, and died at the âge of forty-one. He was a Republican politician,the first black to be a member of theOhio législature, a world traveller, andthe first critic of [King] Leopold's [ofBelgium] policies in the Congo. Hehad a staggering career," and heshook his head in disbelief.Then he leaned forward andsmiled."And I'm going to write a bookabout runaway slaves."I'm curious to find out, whatkinds of people ran away? What wasthe level of their intellectual and otherachievements? What were the reasonsthey ran away?"I want especially to see what themasters had to say about their slaves,"he continued. "I think this is whereyou will get the best picture of run-aways, the most honest description ofslavery and slaves, by masters. Themasters would hâve been more honestabout their slaves while trying to getthem back, than they were at anyother time. They would hâve listed aman's color, and noted if he had anydistinguishing marks, or if he had anyskills, on the assumption that hemight hâve used his skills to earn aliving. And it will shed some light on family life; they might hâve listedwhere a runaway's wife lived, assum-ing that's where he would hâve beenheaded. I want ail of this to be an illumination of life in captivity."Franklin is easy, open, and re-laxed, in conversation. But observehim walking across campus, and youcan see that Buck and Mollie Franklin's teaching really sank in. Tall andbroad-shouldered, Franklin carrieshimself with a touch of majesty. Hishair is grey and thinning, but heneither looks nor sounds like a manneàring retirement âge. Rather, hetalks in the delighted tones of an explorer about to set forth in hithertountraversed territory."I will hâve access to the best collection of southern manuscripts in theworld. Duke University and the University of North Carolina at ChapelHill hâve done a fantastic job of collecting plantation records. I'm lookingforward to it."That's Franklin the scholar speak-ing, but it's also Franklin the man, forhis personal background has greatlyinfluenced him as a historian.Franklin's grandfather was a runaway slave.His name was David Burney, andin 1832 when the Chicasaw Indianswho were his masters were beingmoved to the southwest by the government, they took him along. Burneyescaped, changed his name to Franklin, and enlisted in the Union Armyduring the Civil War. After the war,David Franklin worked a ranch onland he acquired in Indian territory,(now the state of Oklahoma).David Franklin's son, Buck Col-bert Franklin, showing the same native14 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE/September 1980détermination as his father before him,managed to obtain a collège éducation,at Roger Williams University in Nash-ville, TN. While at collège he also ac-quired a wife, fellow student MollieParker. (They met in the classroom ofProfessor John Hope, who impressedthem so much that they decided ifthey ever had a second son, theywould name him John Hope.)John Hope Franklin grew up inRentiesville, OK, an all-black town,and in a segregated section of Tulsa,OK. In Rentiesville his father was thepostmaster, notary public, and onlylawyer.From both parents, Franklinlearned never to feel inferior to any-one. "They made me feel that I wasequal to anyone else," he recalls. "Intheir minds there was nothing aboutrace that contributed to a man's super-iority or inferiority."Franklin vividly recalls an incidentinvolving his mother, when he wasabout four."We would go to shop in a nearbytown, Checotah, six miles away. Wecould walk, but we preferred to takethe train. One day, my mother tookme and an older sister, on the train.There was no room in the Jim Crowsection, so my mother sat in the whitesection with us. The conductor saidshe could not sit in this section. Mymother replied, There is no room else-where, and I hâve a right to sit down.' He told her she had no right to sitdown on this train, and he stoppedthe train and put us off, out there inthe country."My mother was a proud woman.She would rather be put off the trainthan crowded into the Jim Crow section. I will always remember that incident," said Franklin.Buck Franklin also taught his sonto ignore ségrégation, where he could."My father paid no attention tosigns marked 'white' or 'colored' andused whatever public facilities hechose," continued Franklin."When I was in high school Iused to go down to the courthousewith my father, who was a lawyer. Henever thought in terms of race once he15got into that courthouse. There was alittle section in the courtroom forblacks to sit, in a corner, but he neverlet me sit there. He always took mealong up front, and I either sat at thetable with the lawyers, or if there wereno jury, he'd say, 'John, sit overthere.' He'd introduce me to thejudge, and the other attorneys. I couldsee that they respected him, and thatwas wonderful, in that Society, that hecould enjoy their respect."Mollie Franklin, an elementaryschool teacher, helped ail of her chil-dren master the skills they needed forsuccess as scholars. (AH five Franklinchildren did well in school, and ailwent on to graduate or professionalschools.)"And my father was a reader. Heread every night — literature, the Bible,journals, history," said Franklin.Franklin attended Fisk University,Nashville, TN, and it was therehe discovered what was to become his great love, and his profession — history.He had planned to become alawyer, like his father. But in a classon American history, he encounteredThéodore S. Currier, a white professor."He taught us to view history as apuzzle in which you put togethersmall dues to form a big picture,"Franklin said. "He talked of looking atthe past to understand the présent. Ihad never had such an intellectual expérience."Franklin almost didn't make it tograduate school. When the Dépressionruined his father's law practice, thefamily could offer him no funds. ButFranklin's enthusiasm for history andhis record as a student had so im-pressed Currier that he went to a bankand borrowed $500, which he loanedto the young man. Currier urgedFranklin to attend Harvard, his aimamater.Franklin, who graduated magnaeu m laude from Fisk, took Currier'sloan and went off to Harvard. Hehelped pay his way through graduateschool by working, using his skills atshorthand and typing. And he washeddishes in a Harvard eating club for hismeals.The following year he paid theS500 back to Currier.At Harvard, Franklin was one of ahalf-dozen blacks; with them, he met with the usual forms of discrimination,and some less blatant, but nonethelessdévasta ting."After I got my master's degree in1936, I taught history for a year atFisk, and then came back to Harvardon a fellowship. Ail of my associâtesgot teaching assistantships and had towork for their money. But my fellowship didn't require work, andwould avoid the problems the university seemed to think I might hâve ifI had to grade white students' papers.Later on I was invited a couple oftimes to teach at summer school atHarvard. I taught there one summer,but I concluded that was some kind ofgame they were playing. That was be-fore affirmative action, and I assumedHarvard was strengthening its owncredentials because it had no blackfaculty members."Today, Franklin can look forwardto perusing plantation records in thearchives at Duke University, butwhen, as a graduate student hoping todo research for his dissertation hegave his credentials to the North Caro-lina State Archives, in Durham, NC,he found that he was something of a"problem."He was told:"We're not designed to accommo-date a Negro scholar, but we'regame."It was unthinkable, to archivesadministrators, that Franklin, a black,should be permitted to sit in the samereading room with whites. So theyemptied a room of its muséum displaycases and equipped it with a desk £ndtypewriter. Since they considérée! it anaffront to hâve a black man giveorders to white pages for library mate-rials, Franklin was given his own keyto the locked storage shelves."That was a fantastic break forme," said Franklin. "The other resear-chers had to fret and fume and waitfor a half hour every time they filledout a request slip for a certain manu-script. And ail the time they could seeme loading up a cart with everything Iwanted and wheeling it into the priva-cy of my own workroom. That didn'tlast very long. The director called mein and said the white scholars had ailcomplained about my having a key,and could he please hâve it back."In 1941, Franklin received hisdoctorate in history. The year before,he had married Aurélia Whittington,whom he had first met when they were freshmen at Fisk, in 1931. Theyhâve one son, John Whittington Franklin, 28, who is director of the Englishlanguage program at the AmericanCultural Center in Dakar, Sénégal.After graduating from Harvard,Franklin continued to teach at St. Au-gustine's Collège, where he had joinedthe faculty in 1939. He then taught atNorth Carolina Collège at Durham,and from there he went to HowardUniversity, in 1947. In 1956, BrooklynCollège invited him to serve as chair-man of the Department of History,and he stayed there for the next eightyears.In 1964, Franklin came to the University. He served as chairman of theDepartment of History from 1967-70,and in 1969 was named the JohnMatthews Manly Distinguished ServiceProfessor.Looking out the window onto aview of the east quadrangle, hesighed:"I really love this place. I hâte toleave it, but after sixteen years I thinkit's time to move on."Franklin gained early récognitionas a scholar, although he continued fora long time to suffer the slights of racial discrimination.His dissertation, published as abook in 1943, The Free Negro in NorthCarolina, (University of North CarolinaPress, 1943), earned him some attention, but it was his willingness to stepforward and attack a scholar whom hefound to be inaccurate which broughthim, unforgettably, into the conscious-ness of many historians.A white historian, E. MertonCoulter, had written a book, The SouthDuring Reconstruction, which Franklinfound inaccurate and offensive. Hewrote a review for the Journal of NegroEducation, pointing out the inaccur-acies, then paid for 500 reprints of thearticle, and mailed them to historiansaround the country.In 1949, when Franklin read apaper to the Southern Historical Association, he was the first black to do so.He had to stay in a private home because the inn at Williamsburg, VA,would not accept a black. Twentyyears later, Franklin was elected président of the Southern Historical Association.Franklin has written eight books,and edited several others. He edits aséries, Negro American Biographies andAutobiographies, for The University of16 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO MAGAZINE/September 1980Chicago Press. Two of his books hâvebeen best-sellers. From Slavery to Free-dom: A History of Negro Americans(Knopf, 1947), after being taken up asthe basic book of the black historymovement, sold more than half-a-million copies. Reconstruction After theCivil War (University of Chicago Press,1961), has sold about 252,000 copies.Franklin laughs when he looksback on his naivete as an author,when writing From Slavery to Freedom."I had been teaching a course onthe history of the Negro for severalyears at North Carolina Collège inDurham," he recalled, "and RogerShugg, an editor at Knopf and himselfa very fine historian, had been afterme to write a book on black history. Iwas very flattered."(Shugg later became director ofThe University of Chicago Press.)For six months, Franklin did research at the Library of Congress. Hereturned to Durham, resumed a full-time teaching load, and proceeded towrite a 240,000-word book in only thir-teen months.When Franklin delivered themanuscript, Shugg was astonished."I thought I would be sued orsomething if I didn't finish on time. Ihad no idea that most writers ignoredeadlines," said Franklin.Franklin has devoted much of hiscareer to searching the records of thepast, to find the history of the American Negro, and he has just as careful-ly been inserting that history into theoverall history of the South, and thenation. He has devoted considérableenergy to correcting the record because, he says, of the racist bias ofmany previous white historians.But he does not want to be knownas a "black" historian."I don't teach black history at theUniversity," he explained, "I teachthe history of the South — black andwhite."Writing once about the dilemmaof the black scholar, Franklin said:"I speak of his dual rôle — that hehas to be like any other scholar in hisfield. He must adhère to the higheststandards in his field, but he must alsobe an advocate for justice and equalityso he can be heard as a scholar andsurvive as a human being."Franklin views with skepticismmost black studies programs in collèges."We don't hâve a black studies program at Chicago, and I like to thinkthat's because of intellectual forthright-ness. There are courses ail through theUniversity which bear on black studies. If anyone wants to, he can builda black studies program for himself."What I didn't like was that blackstudies programs were, to a considérable extent, a political response of ex-pediency on the part of universities.Institutions would do anything to keepthe black students quiet, just to keepthem from burning the place down.And that is what I think is so tragic.The universities wouldn't hâve daredto hire whites to teach, with such poorqualifications as some of the peoplehâve who were hired to teach blackstudies."Franklin has occasionally beencriticized by fellow blacks, whocharge that he has not beenenough of an activist."I reject the criticism," he said. "Idon't play the same rôle as an activistas my good friend, Jesse Jackson.There are times when you mustmarch, and I hâve. I marched in Selma[AL] on that final day, when they per-mitted large numbers of people to doso. We ail hâve our rôles to play. I letothers march down Michigan Avenue,and I stay hère and get this stuff out. Iwrite, and try to be a rôle model."Franklin is proud of the part heplayed in doing basic research for theSuprême Court in the famous Brownvs. the Board of Education case, in 1954,when the court struck down the"separate but equal" doctrine in thepublic schools."I've known Thurgood Marshallfor most of my adult life. I knew aboutthe Brown case, of course. The caseshad been argued in the fall of 1952,and everyone expected the court tohand down the décision in 1953. Instead, the court raised several questions, about the intent of the framersof the Fourteenth Amendment, withrespect to segregated schools. Theywere just plain historical questions,and the court felt that they had tohâve historians to answer them," recalled Franklin."I was teaching summer school atCornell University, (Ithaca, NY), andgiving them their 'first' [expérience athaving a black faculty member]. I'dgiven the University of Wisconsin its'first' the quarter before," he said,laughing. "Thurgood called me and said,'I'm in a bind, and I've got to hâvehelp. You've got to do this for me.And who else must I get?' So I namedsome other historians, black andwhite, and he set up a little non-legalresearch staff. Kenneth Clark, RayfordLogan, Vann Woodward, Al Kelly,and several other people joined me onthat committee."In the fall I returned to teach atHoward University, in Washington,DC, so they set up a program for me.I went from Washington to New Yorkevery Thursday and stayed until Sun-day, working on research for theNAACP Légal Défense Fund. We heldseminars for lawyers, and immersedthem in the history of that period. Iwrote several working papers, one ofwhich was 'Jim Crow Goes to School:The Beginning of Ségrégation,' whichlater was published."Our work also included keepingan eye on major research centers, tosee if the opposition was doing similarresearch. To our great surprise, we didnot discover them doing any research.We had people in ail the states. Some-times we had them take papers out,and keep them out, to keep the otherside from having them."So you see, I haven't insulatedmyself in an ivory tower. I write to beread. I hâve tried to provide as muchfuel for the whole civil rights movement as anyone, with my writing."Franklin has received numeroushonors for his work. He has beenprésident of the American StudiesAssociation; the Southern HistoricalAssociation; the Organization of American Historians; and the AmericanHistorical Association. He has beenelected to membership in the American Academy of Arts and Sciences,and the American PhilosophicalSociety.In 1976, he was the first black tobe invited to give the Jefferson Lecture, by the National Endowment forthe Humanities.In that lecture, published later asa book, Racial Equality in America (University of Chicago Press, 1976), Franklin advised fellow Americans to lookback and see the American Révolutionfor the flawed révolution that it was.The patriots wrote in the Déclarationof Independence that ail men hadequal rights, but they did not hâve ailmen in mind, said Franklin."Lesser" men could be denied17equal rights, and this notion is, inFranklin's view, the moral legacy thatwe hâve inherited."Today," he wrote later, "whatwe need is a révolution of the heartand soûl of every American, an un-swerving commitment to the principleof equality. That is what the first révolution did not hâve. That is whatthe new American révolution musthâve."As a teacher, Franklin always hasbeen accessible to his students. Hisattitude toward them has been heavilyinfluenced by his warm recollections ofanother teacher, who once borrowed$500 to enable his student to continuehis studies. Teacher and student re-mained friends, until Currier's deathin 1979.Sometimes Franklin, the historian,civil rights activist, and humanist, despairs at the future for black Americans, and by extension, for ail Americans. He eases his frustration by turn-ing to his work, listening to nineteenthcentury romantic music, or putteringin his greenhouse. Thèse days he'sbusy settling his collection of 500 rareOrchid plants in his new home inDurham. He gives spécial care to ahybrid developed by Herman Pigors,(by crossing Phalaenopsis-Grace Palmwith Phalaenopsis-Liese Pigors). It's cal-led Phalaenopsis-fohn Hope Franklin.It is a rare plant indeed. ¦F.
