Recasting The White Stereotype Of Southern Appalachia: Contribution To Culture And Community By Black Appalachian Women, Sherry Kaye Ms. 2016 East Tennessee State University

Recasting The White Stereotype Of Southern Appalachia: Contribution To Culture And Community By Black Appalachian Women, Sherry Kaye Ms.

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The myth and image of Southern Appalachia spun by local color writers of the early nineteenth century and, later, by local elites in privileged positions of power have long cast the historiography of the region in tones of Caucasian lineage and remediation.

The Handweavers Of Modern-Day Southern Appalachia: An Ethnographic Case Study, Cathryn F. Washell 2016 East Tennessee State University

Three-Dimensional Analysis Of The Development Of Upper Arm Musculoskeletal Stress Markers In Late Adolescents And Young Adults Of Archaic And Mississippian Populations Of Tennessee, Heather Marie Guzik

Master's Theses

This study compares three methods for the evaluation of morphology of musculoskeletal attachment sites.
