Forgotten Immigrant Voices: West Indian Immigrant Experiences And Attitudes Towards Contemporary Immigration, Danielle Cross
Forgotten Immigrant Voices: West Indian Immigrant Experiences And Attitudes Towards Contemporary Immigration, Danielle Cross
Honors Scholar Theses
Scholarly work and media coverage both point to the negative effect that the rhetoric and policy of former US President Donald Trump had on the lived experience and wellbeing of immigrant groups explicitly targeted by it (i.e., the “Trump effect”). Typically, the focus has been on Muslim and Latino immigrants as well as those less-explicitly targeted but still affected by Trump-era policies, such as temporary workers. This thesis explores whether Black immigrants from the English-speaking Caribbean, a group notably missing from the literature of “Trump effects” on immigrant experiences, experienced similar attitudinal or practical effects as a result of contemporary …
The Marriage Between Art And Politics: Propaganda, Rebecca J. Counen
The Marriage Between Art And Politics: Propaganda, Rebecca J. Counen
The Purdue Historian
During the first half of the twentieth century Europe, Asia, and the United States faced many political/social changes and challenges amid both ideological wars and revolutions. This research paper works to analyze films from this era in order to convey the somewhat unorthodox, yet nonetheless influential and compelling, relationship between the arts and politics and how creativity is oftentimes manipulated for power and influence.
The Forgotten Concentration Camps Of 2022, Morgan R. Schroeder
The Forgotten Concentration Camps Of 2022, Morgan R. Schroeder
History: Student Scholarship & Creative Works
Many people would like to believe they could never be a Nazi, but as we speak a genocide not unlike the Holocaust is happening in China and North Korea. We must address this issue if we are to see ourselves as capable of taking on a threat as great as the Nazis. Millions of people are facing the worst oppression this world has ever seen and they need our help in any way we can afford it. In this paper, I compare Nazi Germany to China (1930s-present) and report on how Americans perceive the latter country. Although the terror and …

Russia's Agenda For Ukraine: An Examination Of Putin's Media Propaganda Narratives, Gillian Grace Littleton
Russia's Agenda For Ukraine: An Examination Of Putin's Media Propaganda Narratives, Gillian Grace Littleton
Honors Theses
This thesis explores Russian discourse about Ukraine as reflected in Russian popular media since 2014’s Euromaidan Revolution. The thesis provides an overview of Russia’s historic denial of Ukrainian statehood and it argues: Russian historians and politicians have seen Ukraine as a “little-brother” nation to Russia, with a shared Slavic heritage, and that any attempts by Ukrainians to separate themselves from Russia are Western influence movements. The thesis examines three types of mass media in order to demonstrate the interaction between history, politics and popular culture. Chapter 1 explores the public speeches of key Russian political figures including Vladimir Putin himself, …
Patriotism For All Causes: How American Veterans Of The Philippine-American War Were Used To Influence Imperial Policies In The Early Twentieth Century, Russell T. Heibel
Patriotism For All Causes: How American Veterans Of The Philippine-American War Were Used To Influence Imperial Policies In The Early Twentieth Century, Russell T. Heibel
Honors Capstones
Following the end of the Spanish-American War the United States gained several overseas territories which enabled them to extend their influence overseas. However, before taking on more direct imperialist actions, the United States would quickly be drawn into it a colonial conflict with its new holdings in the Philippines. While the conflict itself is not widely recognized by the contemporary American public it left several impressions upon the United States during the course of the conflict. One of the overlooked influences that would arise after the conflict would come from the veterans who served during the war. Veterans of the …

An Analysis Of The Tanzanian Public Response To Tanzanian Leadership During The Covid-19 Pandemic, Savannah Pipkin
An Analysis Of The Tanzanian Public Response To Tanzanian Leadership During The Covid-19 Pandemic, Savannah Pipkin
Honors Theses
This thesis discusses the similarities and differences in Tanzanian COVID-19 policies implemented by the late President John Pombe Magufuli and his successor, President Samia Suluhu Hassan. It also analyzes the responses of Tanzanian citizens to these different policies as expressed in the media. The conclusions that were made in this thesis are based on qualitative analysis of articles published in Tanzanian-based newspapers during specific time periods surrounding significant policy changes during each presidency. The situation of COVID-19 policies in Tanzania is unique due to the differences in the COVID-19 policies implemented in comparison to those implemented by other countries and …
A Cleave Within The Piney Woods: Nacogdoches, Stephen F. Austin State University And How Racial Integration Divided The Town And Gown, Caitlin Hornback
A Cleave Within The Piney Woods: Nacogdoches, Stephen F. Austin State University And How Racial Integration Divided The Town And Gown, Caitlin Hornback
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Stephen F. Austin State University was once the pride and joy of the city of Nacogdoches, Texas. When the Texas State Legislature began to look for a location for their new state normal school, the people of the East Texas town fought to have it built there and the Stephen F. Austin Teacher’s College opened its doors in September 1923 to a proud community. Through the trials and tribulations of early twentieth century events, the school managed to stay afloat and grow in numbers. Dr. Ralph W. Steen became the president of the college in 1958 and he oversaw a …

Hall Family Collection - Index To Appendix 1, "Letters From The Attic" And Appendix 2, Postcards, Kyle Ainsworth
Librarian and Staff Presentations
The Hall Family Collection can generally be described in two parts. The first part is Letters from the Attic, which are more than 5,000 documents that Andrena Hall Brunotte transcribed into 16 volumes. Brunotte’s transcription project established an “original order” to this part of the collection that the processing archivist does their best to adhere to. All of these materials were found in one large steamer trunk and organized by Brunotte in chronological order. Boxes 1 to 4 of the collection house the paper transcriptions (3,330 pages). Boxes 5 to 13 contain the documents, which are in chronological order. The …
Expecting Blows: Sylvia Wynter, Sociogeny, And Exceeding Marxist Social Form, Sara-Maria Sorentino
Expecting Blows: Sylvia Wynter, Sociogeny, And Exceeding Marxist Social Form, Sara-Maria Sorentino
Emancipations: A Journal of Critical Social Analysis
This article examines the relationship between Sylvia Wynter’s sociogenic principle and the question of “social form” in the critique of political economy. Despite their diverging emphases (the symbolic over the material, the slave over the laborer, sociogeny over social form), both Wynter and Marx pursue theoretical modes of inquiry that account for how empty reality principles reside over the reproduction of historical content and consciousness. In turning to the disavowed terms that heterodox Marxism, from value-form to world-systems theory, seeks to resuscitate, Wynter retains elements of Marxism’s interest in social forms reimagines the terms through which Marx’s critique can be …

The Gulf Coast Fish Cheer: Radicalism And The Underground Press In Pensacola, Florida, 1970-1971, Christopher Satterwhite
The Gulf Coast Fish Cheer: Radicalism And The Underground Press In Pensacola, Florida, 1970-1971, Christopher Satterwhite
Florida Historical Quarterly
By the end of the 1960s the underground press in the United States had grown exponentially from five publications in 1965 to hundreds by the end of the decade with a "combined readership that stretched into the millions."1 As the underground press movement flourished throughout the counterculture, this new radical media spread from college campuses to military towns across the country. By 1971, Pensacola, Florida, had joined a growing number of American cities with an underground newspaper. That paper was the Gulf Coast Fish Cheer.
Losing Lincoln: Black Educators, Historical Memory, And The Desegregation Of Lincoln High School In Gainesville, Florida, Kathryn Palmer
Losing Lincoln: Black Educators, Historical Memory, And The Desegregation Of Lincoln High School In Gainesville, Florida, Kathryn Palmer
Florida Historical Quarterly
In 1979 Nat Tillman, a Lincoln High School (LHS) alumnus and one of the Gainesville Sun's first African-American columnists, penned an article advocating for the preservation of Lincoln's history as a "pioneer of black education in Florida." Tillman interviewed Eric Roberts, a member of Lincoln's first graduating class of 1925 about why Lincoln's history as a historically black high school "deserved to be preserved." Like many of Florida's black high schools closed during school integration efforts of the late 1960s and early 70s, Lincoln's roots stretch back to Reconstruction. However, as Florida's second accredited black high school, Roberts praised the …
The Hammer, The Sickle, And The Phosphate Rock: The 1974 Political Controversy Over Florida Phosphate Shipments To The Soviet Union, Brad Massey
Florida Historical Quarterly
The price of Florida phosphate rock skyrocketed in the 1970s. Corporate profits soared as well, peaking in 1980-1981 as phosphate-based fertilizers were applied to more and more farms throughout the world. During this boom decade, Florida phosphate companies acquired new lands for strip-mining operations, invested billions in new industrial infrastructure and employee payrolls, and created thousands of jobs. Over 90% of the phosphate rock extracted from the Florida earth was used for fertilizer production, which industry proponents argued was a noble global industrial cause. Florida mining boosters testified that phosphate fertilizers increased farm yields, staving off starvation and food scarcity …
Pensacola's Cast Iron Architecture, Cynthia Catellier
Pensacola's Cast Iron Architecture, Cynthia Catellier
Florida Historical Quarterly
Late at night on July 5, 1880, while most of Pensacola's citizens were sleeping, flames erupted from Cheap John's Clothing Store. The flames became a blaze that eventually destroyed most of the buildings west of the public square. Five months later, an even more devastating fire consumed Pensacola's downtown business district. On December 11, over 100 buildings burned, including Pensacola's two newspaper buildings, every drug store, stationery store, and even the telegraph offices. As the year 1880 ended, over ninety percent of Pensacola's commercial structures had succumbed to flames, and antebellum Pensacola lay in ruins.1

Another Invisible Man: Alexander H. Darnes, M.D., Charles A. Tingley
Another Invisible Man: Alexander H. Darnes, M.D., Charles A. Tingley
Florida Historical Quarterly
The term "invisible man" has become a cliche for the evaporative effect of the Jim Crow Era on African American men and women and the memory of their lives.1 This article is the story of one such man of great stature who became invisible. What started as the search for a young slave boy named Aleck turned in to the re-discovery of Dr. Alexander Hanson Darnes, who was taken as a teenager to a U. S. Army cavalry post in the West, went through the Civil War as the personal valet of Confederate General Edmund Kirby Smith, gained freedom through …
A Flower At Elmira: The Prisoner Of War Diary Of Wilbur Wightman Gramling, Robert Saunders, Jr.
A Flower At Elmira: The Prisoner Of War Diary Of Wilbur Wightman Gramling, Robert Saunders, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
I-want-to-go-home-so-bad. These forlorn words, expressing such homesickness, appear lengthwise within the right margin on the last page of Wilbur Wightman Gramling's pocket diary, a day-by-day journal of his experiences while imprisoned at Elmira Prisoner-of-War (POW) Camp in New York during the Civil War. Struck by a minie ball in the right arm and captured at the Battle of the Wilderness on May 6, 1864, Gramling, a private in Florida's 5th Infantry, spent eleven months at Elmira Prison. The journal he faithfully kept throughout his imprisonment is the only known existing document of this type written by a Florida soldier.1
Historiography Of Nineteenth-Century Florida, James G. Cusick
Historiography Of Nineteenth-Century Florida, James G. Cusick
Florida Historical Quarterly
When the nineteenth century began, Florida, or the two colonial territories that became the modern state, was still under Spanish rule, its residents untouched as yet by coming rebellion and war. When the century closed, Florida was part of the American Deep South, looking to northern financiers for its Gilded Age development while creating Jim Crow laws as a buttress against calls for racial equality.
Currency, Credit, Crisis, And Cuba: The Fed's Early History In Florida, Lesley Mace
Currency, Credit, Crisis, And Cuba: The Fed's Early History In Florida, Lesley Mace
Florida Historical Quarterly
In the early years of the Federal Reserve System, two crises-one in Cuba, the other in Florida-and their resolution tactics provided a potential blueprint for dealing with the national banking crisis that developed after the 1929 stock market crash. The story of that lost opportunity begins with the organization of the Federal Reserve System and the Reserve Banks in the South. After President Woodrow Wilson signed the new Federal Reserve Act into law at the end of 1913, the first task for the-Reserve Bank Organization Committee was to choose the locations of what were known as the "Federal Reserve cities" …
Sucking, Blood, And Fire: Timucuan Healing Practices In Spanish Florida, Tamara Shircliff Spike
Sucking, Blood, And Fire: Timucuan Healing Practices In Spanish Florida, Tamara Shircliff Spike
Florida Historical Quarterly
As a colonial holding, Spanish Florida was a provincial backwater. It was located on the periphery of empire and parsely settled. Spain spent comparatively little time and effort developing the infrastructure of the colony.1 However, it is for these very reasons that Florida reflects to a magnified degree a problem in mission fields throughout the Americas during the colonial period: how to combat disease in the mission populations while still working to extirpate Native practices seen as anti-doctrinal. Descriptions of healing rituals by Franciscan friars and other Europeans offer tremendous insight into how the Timucuans of Spanish Florida viewed their …
Throwing The Explorer Out With The Fountain: American History Textbooks And Juan Ponce De Leon, Roger Chapman
Throwing The Explorer Out With The Fountain: American History Textbooks And Juan Ponce De Leon, Roger Chapman
Florida Historical Quarterly
Someone once critically categorized American history textbooks, perhaps unfairly, as "fat, dull boring books that mention everything but explain practically nothing."1 A cursory survey of US history textbooks on the treatment of Juan Ponce de Leon and the "discovery" of Florida would suggest historical content is like an ice cube melting in the sun.2

The Rise Of Jim Crow In Fort Myers, 1885-1930, Jonathan Harrison
Florida Historical Quarterly
The power and opportunities of African Americans in Florida between the 1880s and 1920s fluctuated across time and location and were affected by variations in local economic structures, migration patterns and cultural histories. Black property ownership, political participation and social prestige were in flux, impacted by such factors as the availability of public land for cultivation by blacks, the cultures of the places from which new residents had migrated, and whether the area was a new settlement or one that was carrying forward a set of social relationships that had been formed during the slavery period. Each of these factors …

The Failure Of Great Britain's "Southern Expedition" Of 1776: Revisiting Southern Campaigns In The Early Years Of The American Revolution, 1775-1779, Roger Smith
Florida Historical Quarterly
The first five years of the American Revolution are traditionally viewed as a New England-based conflict, fought principally by a continuously-depleted Continental Army and Yankee Minute Men; only after the siege of Charleston in 1780 did the focus of the fighting shift south.1 Historical documents pertaining to Florida, however, reveal a far more complex story that exposes the fallacy that tens of thousands of able-bodied fighting men from the southern colonies remained inactive while George Washington's Continental Army was out-manned, out-gunned, and battered to pieces during the first five years of the war. The absence of southern regiments and militia …

Florida is the neglected stepchild of Spain's American empire, wrote Carl L. Swanson in his introduction to the reprint of Joyce Harman's Trade and Privateering in Spanish Florida, 1732-1763.1 Written in 2004, Swanson's observation decrying the limited number of books that dealt with early Florida was not too far from the mark. Like Jane Landers'observation on the difficulty in placing Florida into one historical tradition or another, such statements underscore the obstacles in crafting a cohesive article that overcomes the problems not encountered in writing historiographical essays for the other centuries of La Florida.2 The challenges begin when one realizes …

Wishing That Right May Prevail: Ethan Allen Hitchcock And The Florida War, C. S. Monaco
Wishing That Right May Prevail: Ethan Allen Hitchcock And The Florida War, C. S. Monaco
Florida Historical Quarterly
On a spring evening in 1841, Major Ethan A. Hitchcock (1798-1870), mindful of the rare privilege of spending a night alone in a "small neat house" overlooking Tampa bay, rather than encamped in the East Florida wilderness, opened a trunk containing his flute and some sheet music and proceeded to play a few pieces. Pausing for a moment, he put his instrument down and walked over to an open window where he "sat in the light of the moon." As the air blew gently, Hitchcock was overcome by a rush of feeling. "I could haye wept," he confided to his …
