- catalog abstract "Annotation Eric Anderson & Alfred A. Moss, Jr., demonstrate the profound influence of such foundations as the Southern Education Board, the Rosenwald Fund, & the General Education Board. The impact of these organizations' activities reached far beyond the particular schools they supported. Their decisions influenced the contributing patterns of individual donors & other organizations with an interest in black education, as well as the emerging systems of public funding for blacks in southern states. These agencies helped shape U.S. race relations, with sometimes surprising implications for public & cultural values. Dangerous Donations explores the important limitations on the power of these foundations & their agents. The northern philanthropies had to move cautiously & conservatively, seeking the cooperation of southern whites whenever possible. They believed African Americans could not be excluded from education & must be prepared for productive participation in the South-whatever its social system-for the safety of the region & the nation as a whole. Blacks challenged the foundations, expressing their own agendas through resistance to policies of the northern agencies. The millions of dollars contributed by African Americans to schools for blacks reflected their refusal to give complete control of their schools to the white South or to distant philanthropists in the North. Annotation Dangerous Donations explores the important limitations on the power of these foundations and their agents. The northern philanthropies had to move cautiously and conservatively, seeking the cooperation of southern whites whenever possible. They believed African Americans could not be excluded from education and must be prepared for productive participation in the South -- whatever its social system -- for the safety of the region and the nation as a whole.".
