Carter G. Woodson: The Early Years, 1875 – 1903, Burnis Morris

Burnis R. Morris

When Carter G. Woodson departed West Virginia in 1903 for the Philippines and other distant datelines, few people other than Woodson himself could have imagined his final destination. He would eventually enjoin millions to follow his lead in promoting African Americans’ contributions in history; however, the scholarly people in Washington, where he settled in 1909, laughed at him and predicted failure.

Black Jack: The John J. Pershing Story, Bernard Mccoy Dec 2012

Black Jack: The John J. Pershing Story, Bernard Mccoy

Bernard R. McCoy

I am currently in the research and fundraising stage of producing a documentary on WWI General John J. Pershing.

Many Americans know little of Pershing’s important contributions to mankind. Pershing’s story is one of overcoming great adversity through perseverance, discipline and tolerance.

We believe Pershing’s story serves Nebraska and America because it informs, educates and inspires people of every age.

Silent Subversions, Derek Dubois

Derek M Dubois

Explores the concept of spectatorship in relation to gender in the earliest period of film history in the United States known as the silent era. Argues that a new mode of spectatorship emerges for women during the 1920s, which employs to advantage the extra-diegetic components of spectacle in theater design, new customized genres for female filmgoers, fandom, and exotic male film stars, such as Rudolph Valentino. Focuses primarily on feminist film theory and on cultural studies as methodological models.
