Prompted by the overt omission of Muncie's black community from the
famous community study by Robert S. Lynd and Helen Merrell Lynd,
Middletown: A Study in Modern American Culture, the authors
initiated this project to reveal the unrecorded historical and
contemporary life of Middletown, a well-known pseudonym for the
Midwestern city of Muncie, Indiana. As a collaboration of community
and campus, this book recounts the early efforts of Hurley Goodall
to develop a community history and archive that told the story of
the African American community, and rectify the representation of
small town America as exclusively white. The authors designed and
implemented a collaborative ethnographic field project that
involved intensive interviews, research, and writing between
community organizations, local experts, ethnographers, and teams of
college students. This book is a unique model for collaborative
research, easily accessible to students. It will be a valuable
resource for instructors in anthropology, creative writing,
sociology, community research, and African American studies.
