Scarlet and Black

Slavery and Dispossession in Rutgers History

Rutgers University Press

Scarlet and Black documents the history of Rutgers’s connection to slavery, which was neither casual nor accidental—nor unusual. Like most early American colleges, Rutgers depended on slaves to build its campuses and serve its students and faculty. The contributors offer this history as a usable one—to strengthen Rutgers and help direct its course for the future.

The work of the Committee on Enslaved and Disenfranchised Population in Rutgers History.

Making Black Lives Matter at Rutgers, 1945-2020

Rutgers University Press

The 250th anniversary of the founding of Rutgers University is a perfect moment for the Rutgers community to reconcile its past, and acknowledge its role in the enslavement and debasement of African Americans and the disfranchisement and elimination of Native American people and culture.
