French Place Names In Clark County, Arkansas, Joe Jeffers
French Place Names In Clark County, Arkansas, Joe Jeffers
Articles
French place names are common in Arkansas, especially in south Arkansas, where after the French explorers left, French trappers and settlers from Canada moved in. Some of those names remain unchanged from the original French. General usage and English speaking settlers modified others. Clark County was one of five counties established in the Arkansas Territory. Its boundaries changed five times before reaching its present form in 1877. This article explores French place names in today’s Clark County and in the original Clark County formed in 1818.

"The Most Patient Of Animals, Next To The Ass:" Jan Smuts, Howard University, And African American Leandership, 1930, Robert Edgar, Myra Ann Houser
Articles
Former South African Prime Minister Jan Smuts’ 1930 European and North American tour included a series of interactions with diasporic African and African American activists and intelligentsia. Among Smuts’s many remarks stands a particular speech he delivered in New York City, when he called Africans “the most patient of all animals, next to the ass.” Naturally, this and other comments touched off a firestorm of controversy surrounding Smuts, his visit, and segregationist South Africa’s laws. Utilizing news coverage, correspondence, and recollections of the trip, this article uses his visit as a lens into both African American relations with Africa and …

Reassessing The Army-Mccarthy Hearings: Live Television's Impact On The Fate Of Senator Joseph R. Mccarthy, David Ozmun
Articles
Many broadcast historians customarily credit television with the public's eventual renunciation of Wisconsin Senator Joseph R. McCarthy and his Communist-hunting tactics. Normally cited are the ABC and Dumont networks' live coverage of the Army-McCarthy Hearings and Edward R. Murrow's See It Now broadcasts during the Spring of 1954. Utilizing literature review and secondary analysis of polling and census data from 1950 through 1954, this paper suggests the live broadcasts did not necessarily achieve the results credited them by many broadcast history textbooks.
Findings suggest it is doubtful that the ABC network reached a national audience, that the audience size was …

Ode To Billy Mac: An "Arkansas Hundred" Legacy Booklist, S. Ray Granade

His passing deprived up forever of his judgement and of his answer to the question with which he had dealt--his choice of "one hundred notable books about, or from, Arkansas."
We had talked about Arkansas authors on several occasions, and Bill Mac (as Ouachitonians knew him) often said he had compiled a list of "an Arkansas hundred" from …
