Vcu Today (1978-03-14)

VCU Today, 1972-1988

VCU Today, the University’s first official administrative organ, began as a somewhat irregular monthly publication but moved to a bi-weekly newspaper format in the 1980s. The newspaper changed its name to VCU Voice in 1988 and ten years later it appeared under the title UniverCity News. As it neared the end of its run as a physical newspaper, the publication became simply VCU News. These four publications were essentially the same periodical published under different titles by the Office of University Relations. VCU News appeared online for the first time in 2002.

[Review Of] Orlando Romero, Nambe--Year One, Vernon E. Lattin Jan 1978

[Review Of] Orlando Romero, Nambe--Year One, Vernon E. Lattin

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

In the last few years the New Mexican Chicano narrative has taken a significant place within Chicano fiction. Writers like Anaya, Candelaria, and Ulibarri have revealed the uniqueness of being Chicano in New Mexico, often writing about the people who have maintained their century-old ties with past customs and ways of life. Orlando Romero’s novel, Nambe--Year One, adds a new and interesting voice to this growing body of literature.

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

Let me begin this editorial by formally thanking Dr. Charles Irby, Past President of the NAIES, for his exemplary leadership over the past two years. The membership in general, and the Executive Council in particular, are indebted to Chuck for his commitment and hard work. The Association has grown strong as a result of Chuck's efforts. Our thanks to you, Chuck! We will continue to pursue the ideal of unity through diversity, in its many ramifications, during the next two years.


[Review Of] Barbara Bryant Solomon, Black Empowerment: Social Work In Oppressed Communities, Emma Turner Lucas Jan 1978

[Review Of] Barbara Bryant Solomon, Black Empowerment: Social Work In Oppressed Communities, Emma Turner Lucas

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

At long last an issue of great importance to the Black communit [community] in the social work arena has been addressed. The commencement of social service programs in the l960's brought about an even greate [greater] need for a deeper understanding of the effects of social ills on minorities, especially Blacks. While some individuals had good intentions of bringing about this understanding, they lacked the necessary familiarity with the Black community and its conditions. Black Empowerment addresses itself to this concern by describing the operational mobility of the Black community within a larger society.


[Review Of] Virginia Vans-Mclaughlin, Family And Community, Italian Immigrants In Buffalo, 1880-1930, Frank J. Cavaioli Jan 1978

[Review Of] Virginia Vans-Mclaughlin, Family And Community, Italian Immigrants In Buffalo, 1880-1930, Frank J. Cavaioli

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

Virginia Yans-McLaughlin has made a major contribution to the study of ethnic immigration history, in general, and to the existing knowledge of the Italian Americans, in particular. In Family and Community, Italian Immigrants in Buffalo, 1880—1930, she explores the relationship between the social and economic roots of the contadini from the Italian mezzogiorno and their life in urban industrial America.

[Review Of] Robert A. Huttenback, Racism And Empire: White Settlers And Coloured Immigrants In The British Self-Governing Colonies 1820-1910, Georgina Ashworth

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

The events in Queensland, and particularly Western Australia, just before the December 1977 General Election would be recognizable to anyone who had read Richard A. Huttenback's Racism and Empire. The dishonorable attempt to disenfranchise the illiterate Aborigines--which was foiled only by a Cabinet Minister crossing the floor and the casting vote of the speaker--was a direct inheritance of the "Natal formula," which is the main exercise of Huttenback's book. The formula was, in its purest form, simply a means, by language and literacy testing, of "keeping unwanted immigrants out of a colony through the use of a mechanism which seemed …

Abstracts Of Papers Presented At The 6th Annual Conference On Ethnic And Minority Studies

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

Before developing programs to help minority women, program developers should assess themselves. White men usually create problems that cause minority women to need programs developed. White men who have had minimal social contact with minority women are not qualified to solve minority women's problems. White men ask white women and minority men to give assistance in solving minority women's problems. White women, who have been considered superior to minority women because of social, educational, or economical circumstances, are not qualified to solve minority women's problems. Minority men who have chauvinist values and do not have minority women's concerns at heart …

The "Barbarous Massacre" Reconsidered: The Powhatan Uprising Of 1622 And The Historians, J. Frederick Fausz Jan 1978

The "Barbarous Massacre" Reconsidered: The Powhatan Uprising Of 1622 And The Historians, J. Frederick Fausz

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

The Powhatan Uprising of March 22, 1621/22, was the single most significant event of Anglo-Indian relations in Virginia. An early example of a native culture’s rebellion against intruding European civilization, the uprising climaxed a mere decade and a half of intercultural contact. Its impact upon trans-Atlantic ideology and policy was impressive: it brought to an end the first (forty year) phase of British imperialis [imperialist] accelerated Virginia's unique course of development, and hastened the doom of an American Indian empire with vast potential.

The Asian Woman In America, Gloria L. Kumagai Jan 1978

The Asian Woman In America, Gloria L. Kumagai

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

Both females and males, regardless of their racial ethnic group, are seriously limited in their information about Asian women. Far too often the system educates individuals about race and sex as two distinct and separate categories. Consequently, Asian women, as well as other women of color, are viewed either as members of their ethnic group or their sexual group, and rarely as members of both groups simultaneously. This paper presents an overview of the historical context and the present-day status of Asian women in America as well as implications for education and change.


[Review Of] Ernesto Galarza, Farm Workers And Agri-Business In California, 1947-1960, Rosa Fernandez Jan 1978

[Review Of] Ernesto Galarza, Farm Workers And Agri-Business In California, 1947-1960, Rosa Fernandez

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

The reader who is already familiar with Galarza's work will not find it surprising that once again he has done a painstaking job of writing this account of the history of agricultural workers in California during the years l947 to 1960. Contrary to Galarza's own fears that the academically minded might find his book ”insufficient“ and the list of suggested readings ”too thin,” Farm Workers and Agri-business in California, 1947-1960 provides the reader with a wealth of information based on careful research and on Galarza's own recollections of his experiences as a farm worker and union organizer during that period.

Editor's Corner, George E. Carter

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

Since the inception of NAIES, the matter of the organization serving as a communications network has been one of some concern. The need for this kind of activity within the Association is self-evident. When a program, person, or institution encounters difficulty, the existence of a vehicle which can bring to bear external pressure can often be extremely useful. Some might raise the question of being seen as an “outside agitator,” but given the scope of the membership of NAIES, this kind of pressure can often be brought from closeby. The matter of a network for communication also opens the door …

Guest Editorial: Explorations In Ethnic Studies, A New Journal, Charles C. Irby

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

The National Association of Interdisciplinary Ethnic Studies (NAIES)was organized at the University of Wisconsin - La Crosse during the third annual meeting of the Minority Studies Conference in the spring of 1975. The founding of the "association," with its unwieldy title that was changed a year later, resulted from a meeting of about a dozen persons

A Developmental Design For Understanding Ethnicity, Charles C. Irby

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

Carl O. Sauer, the late dean of North American anthropogeography, noted that: We are touching upon a very serious topic that Americans, with their emphasis on acculturation, Americanization, and so forth, have never explored properly. Our own cultural minorities, living and surviving, persisting in some of their own attitudes of values and consciences, have a seminal as well as a historical significance as long as they resist absorption into the general pattern, but we pay little attention to them.1


Education And The Images Of The American Indian, Gretchen Bataille Jan 1978

Education And The Images Of The American Indian, Gretchen Bataille

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

Looking at any schedule of college courses, one is likely to find several classes which come under the rubric of ethnic studies. The courses are popular with teachers and students alike because they represent a change of pace from traditional study. Hopefully, such courses suggest a move toward an appreciation and recognition of the cultural diversity in America and mean that, as a nation, we are ready to follow the suggestion of Louis Ballard, American Indian composer and author, who stated that "cultural differences should be honored, not merely 'accepted,' which is nothing more than a synonym for 'tolerated.'" In …
