Nobel Peace Prize Ralph Bunche (1904-71) Ralph Johnson Bunche (1904-1971) received the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1950 for his role in bringing peace to Palestine as UN mediator during the Arab-Israeli peace negotiations of September 1948 to August 1949. Bunche had originally acted as the assistant to the UN mediator Count Folke Bernadotte, working closely with him during the negotiations from 20 May, 1948. After Bernadotte's assassination on September 17, 1948, the UN appointed Bunche as UN mediator and Bernadotte's successor. Bunche was the first black American to gain a PhD in Political Science from an American university, winning the prize for an outstanding doctoral thesis in social science from Harvard in 1934. From 1936 to 1938 he pursued postdoctoral research in anthropology under a Social Science Research Council fellowship at LSE, Northwestern University, and the University of Cape Town. Bunche was an active campaigner for coloured civil rights in America, and in 1963 he received the Medal of Freedom, America's highest civilian honour, from President Kennedy. Timeline Index

DEVELOPMENT NEWS PUBLIC AFFAIRS FOUNDATION ... DONOR RELATIONS INDUSTRY CLUSTER CAREER CENTER PUBLICATIONS "I have a deep-seated bias against racial and religious bigotry. I have a bias against war, a bias which leads me to believe that no problem of human relations is ever insoluble." Ralph Bunche Ralph Bunche As a diplomat who accomplished the seemingly impossible by negotiating the 1949 armistice between one-year-old Israel and it's Arab neighbors, Ralph Bunche demonstrated so well that there is more than one way to resolve an issue that he earned the Noble prize for Peace awarded in 1950. From early in his career, he was a militant critic of American society who established himself as one of the staunchest opponents of the gradualism and conciliation urged by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored people. And yet in his celebrated work for the State Department and later the United Nations as a statesman and diplomat, he proved himself to be a man without color, and international civil servant of the highest rank. For an even-tempered diplomat, he was a driven man. Orphaned at the age of 11 in the slums of Detroit. Bunche went to UCLA on an athletic scholarship and became the first African-American to earn a Ph.D. from Harvard's government department, in 1934. His research on the political status of African-Americans and the strategies of race betterment organizations, utilized in

Ralph Bunche Park From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Ralph Bunche Park is a small municipal public park in the Turtle Bay neighborhood of New York City , at the northwest corner of First Avenue and 42nd Street. It was named in 1979 for the late Ralph Bunche The Isaiah Wall (the triangular shadow is cast by the Peace Form One sculpture) The park is across First Avenue from the United Nations headquarters . (This stretch of First Avenue is also known as "United Nations Plaza".) A granite staircase in the park's northwest corner leads to the Tudor City apartments. In 1981 the staircase was named the Scharansky Steps in honor of Soviet dissident Natan Sharansky . In 1975 the northern wall was inscribed with the famous quotation from Isaiah 2:4: "They shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more." It is now known as the Isaiah Wall. In the plaza in front of the Isaiah Wall is Peace Form One , a stainless-steel obelisk 50 feet (15 m) high, erected in 1980. The sculptor

Entries Publication Data Advisory Board Contributors ... World Civilizations The Reader's Companion to American History BUNCHE, RALPH , scholar, statesman, and U.N. under secretary general. Bunche was the first black person to win the Nobel Peace Prize, awarded in 1950. Born in Detroit, Michigan, Bunche and his sister were orphaned in 1915 and were reared by their grandmother in Los Angeles. A brilliant, industrious student, Bunche graduated from Jefferson High School in 1922 as class valedictorian but was barred from the honor society because of his race. He would be reminded of this insult years later when the West Side Tennis Club in New York denied membership to him and his son. After he lodged a complaint, the club relented because of his international prominence. He refused to join the club, however, because its exception was based on his personal prestige rather than on the principle of racial equality. Bunche noted that "no Negro American can be free from the disabilities of race . . . until the lowliest Negro ... is no longer disadvantaged because of his race." In 1927 Bunche graduated from the University of California at Los Angeles, where he had excelled both in and outside the classroom. He wrote for the school newspaper, won oratorical contests, was sports editor of the yearbook, played guard for three years on the basketball team, and became Phi Beta Kappa. He then entered Harvard University, where in 1934 he became the first African-American to earn a Ph.D. in government and international relations. While completing his doctoral studies, Bunche joined the faculty at Howard University, where he established and chaired the political science department and served as special assistant to Howard's president. He organized the Joint Committee on National Recovery to lobby Congress for black participation in New Deal programs and to fight against racial discrimination in New Deal agencies. He also helped form the National Negro Congress to arouse blacks to work for social and economic progress and to unite black and white workers.

Ralph Bunche's Contributions to Political Science and the Study of Race and Politics Instructor's Notes by Dr. Paula D. McClain, Professor of Political Science and Law, Duke University As the film, " Ralph Bunche: An American Odyssey An American Dilemma: The Negro Problem and Modern Democracy . Among them were Negro leadership styles and the hypocrisy of American democracy in its treatment of Negro citizens. An American Dilemma Discussion Questions: 1. Can you identify common themes in Bunche's work on race and US race relations and his approach to decolonization in Africa as portrayed in the documentary? 2. How do you think the themes of his doctoral dissertation on Togoland and Dahomey shaped his views of colonialism? The film alludes to the connections Bunche drew between the decolonization of Africa and the struggles of black Americans for civil rights and liberties in the United States. What are the connections and how do you think Bunche came to the realization that the two were connected? 4. Bunche was a master of conflict resolution on the international stage, as well as possessing the ability to work from the inside for changes in the situation of black Americans in the United States. Reflecting back on the Black Power phase of the Civil Rights Movement, why do you think that the younger generation of blacks did not understand or appreciate the role Bunche played in the success of the Civil Rights Movement?
