Oklahoma V. Castro-Huerta, United States Supreme Court, Brett Kavanaugh Jun 2022

Oklahoma V. Castro-Huerta, United States Supreme Court, Brett Kavanaugh

US Government Documents Related to Indigenous Nations

This United States (US) Supreme Court decision, argued April 27, 2022 and decided June 29, 2022 expanded the reach of state jurisdiction to allow for prosecution of crimes that occur on Indigenous land, regardless of whether or not a state is named as having such jurisdiction under US Public Law 280. In 2020, the US Supreme Court's decision on McGirt v. Oklahoma established that much of the eastern part of the state of Oklahoma is Indigenous land and therefore falls under either tribal jurisdiction or Federal jurisdiction. In 2015 Victor Manuel Castro-Huerta was charged and convicted of child neglect by …

Becker, Ann Joy, Sophia Maier Garcia Jun 2022

Becker, Ann Joy, Sophia Maier Garcia

Bronx Jewish History Project

Ann Joy Becker, born 1959, grew up outside of Parkchester on Thieriot Avenue in the Archer Stratton Co-op. Her grandparents, immigrants from Eastern Europe, were peddlers on Pelham Parkway. She attended PS 102 and Columbus High School, because her mother did not want her to go to James Monroe High School because it was considered a bad school and dangerous for a white girl. The co-op and surrounding area was mostly Jewish and Italian, with minorities on the other side of the highway. Becker explains there were more issues with other white ethnic groups than with minorities at that time. …

Sympathy For The Devil: Belief In Satan And Moral Beliefs, Scott A. Desmond, Tom Clark, Christoper D. Bader Jun 2022

Sympathy For The Devil: Belief In Satan And Moral Beliefs, Scott A. Desmond, Tom Clark, Christoper D. Bader

Sociology Faculty Articles and Research

Previous research suggests that religious service attendance, biblical literalism, images of God, and other measures of religion are related to moral beliefs (i.e., that certain behaviors are wrong or deviant). Given previous theory and research on spiritual appraisals (particularly demonization and desecration), we argue that belief in Satan should also predict moral beliefs. Using the first four waves of the Baylor Religion Survey, we tested the association between belief in Satan and belief in the wrongfulness of twelve different behaviors related to abortion, family matters, sexuality, and substance use. Although religious service attendance and biblical literalism were consistently related to …

Interdisciplinary Communication By Plausible Analogies: The Case Of Buddhism And Artificial Intelligence, Michael Cooper Jun 2022

Interdisciplinary Communication By Plausible Analogies: The Case Of Buddhism And Artificial Intelligence, Michael Cooper

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Communicating interdisciplinary information is difficult, even when two fields are ostensibly discussing the same topic. In this work, I’ll discuss the capacity for analogical reasoning to provide a framework for developing novel judgments utilizing similarities in separate domains. I argue that analogies are best modeled after Paul Bartha’s By Parallel Reasoning, and that they can be used to create a Toulmin-style warrant that expresses a generalization. I argue that these comparisons provide insights into interdisciplinary research. In order to demonstrate this concept, I will demonstrate that fruitful comparisons can be made between Buddhism and Artificial Intelligence research.

The Experiences Of Black And Hispanic Males Retained Through Florida’S Mandatory Third Grade Retention Law, Sophia Mcmorris Jun 2022

The Experiences Of Black And Hispanic Males Retained Through Florida’S Mandatory Third Grade Retention Law, Sophia Mcmorris

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

There has been a constant argument that if students cannot read by third grad, then they will have an uphill struggle for the rest of their educational journey. Researchers have provided evidence signaling some truth to this claim and efforts have been established to ensure that all students receive high-quality instruction (Tweed, 2001). Many states have struggled with policies on how to correct this problem, and they have been challenged to answer whether students who cannot read proficiently by the third grade should be promoted, or if they should be pertained and provided with intensive interventions before moving on to …

The Rise And Fall Of Copa City, 1944-1957: Nightclubs And The Evolution Of Miami Beach, Keith D. Revell Jun 2022

The Rise And Fall Of Copa City, 1944-1957: Nightclubs And The Evolution Of Miami Beach, Keith D. Revell

Florida Historical Quarterly

On December 23, 1948, Copa City, the world's greatest nightclub, opened on Miami Beach. Nothing like it had ever been seen before. No gaudy neon sign announced its presence, quite unlike the other clubs that crowded the area. Instead, the building itself was an icon: a dramatic, sweeping, curved structure, conceived by the renowned industrial and set designer, Norman Bel Geddes, at the behest of Copa City's young impresario, Murray Weinger, a transplanted New Yorker who had cut his teeth managing nightclubs on Coney Island. Weinger intended Copa City as more than a stage for big-name entertainers and spectacular floor …

Early Motoring In Florida: Making Car Culture And Race In The New South, Fon L. Gordon Jun 2022

Early Motoring In Florida: Making Car Culture And Race In The New South, Fon L. Gordon

Florida Historical Quarterly

At the turn of the twentieth century the emergence of the American romance and religion of the motorcar arose within an historic context that included the World's Fairs between 1876 and 1916. The World's Fairs reified the twin ethos of technology and racial imperatives of exclusivity in the form of Jim Crow segregation and exclusion at home and overseas imperialism. The international expositions between Reconstruction and the eve of the United States entry into World War I were "the most extravagant cultural events" of the Gilded Age and Progressive Era.1 The World's Fairs conferred legitimacy on the racialization of mass …

Plant's Folly And Tampa's Treasure: Boosters And The Creation Of A Tampa Icon, Alena Pirok

Florida Historical Quarterly

After four years of construction and fanfare, the Tampa Bay Hotel opened its doors to northern tourists on February 11, 1891. Journalists on the scene reported that the hotel's builder, interior designer, owner, and all around mastermind, Henry B. Plant, had invited the people of Tampa, prospective hotel guests, and even rival businessmen to view his wondrous new resort.1 At its surface the building was a marvel to behold and quite a contrast to the collection of meager structures and rail lines that made up the "arid desert of sand" that was Tampa.2 Its fine red brick walls and wide …

Early Tourism And Harriet Beecher Stowe: The Discovery Of Stowe's First Published Descriptions Of Florida, John T. Foster, Jr. Jun 2022

Early Tourism And Harriet Beecher Stowe: The Discovery Of Stowe's First Published Descriptions Of Florida, John T. Foster, Jr.

Florida Historical Quarterly

While many living today may not realize it, Harriet Beecher Stowe was the most famous American woman of the mid-nineteenth century. In fact, she was so famous that when she visited President Lincoln at the White House, he is believed to have greeted her with these words: "So you're the little woman who wrote the book that started this great war." This statement, of course, refers to the far-reaching impact of Stowe's novel, Uncle Tom's Cabin. For all its faults, this work exposed a horrible truth about slavery: that a slave owner possessed the right to maim or kill a …

"We Are Not Hired Help": The 1968 Statewide Florida Teacher Strike And The Formation Of Modern Florida, Jody Baxter Noll

Florida Historical Quarterly

During the spring of 2010, a debate over merit pay and tenure for teachers swept across Florida. While this was not a new debate, the introduction of Senate Bill 6 by the Republican led-legislature fanned the flames of discord between teachers and the state. Calling for a merit-based system of pay and teacher retention through standardized testing, as well as diminishing local school board autonomy, the bill directly conflicted with educators' demands for professional respect in a continuously besieged occupation. In passing the bill, the Legislature created an atmosphere of resistance among Florida's teachers who flooded the Governor's office with …

The Fractured American Dream: From Country Club Living To "Suburban Slum" In Latino Orlando, Simone P. Delerme

Florida Historical Quarterly

One evening in July of 2010, an Internet user who goes by "GinnyFavers" posted a question to the city-data.com forum: "I heard from someone that the Buena Ventura Lakes (BVL) subdivision was a majority to all Hispanic area. Just curious if that's really true? No negative implication intended! -Amanda."1 Twenty-two minutes later "Metrowester" responded. "Yes, BVL is a primarily Hispanic area. Landstar homes was heavily marketed in Puerto Rico several years ago."2 "Metrowester" continued, and spoke favorably about the Publix Sabor supermarket in the area with a deli that serves Cuban coffee, pastries, and roasted pork. He identified himself as …

Twentieth-Century Florida: A Bibliographic Essay, Gary R. Mormino Jun 2022

Twentieth-Century Florida: A Bibliographic Essay, Gary R. Mormino

Florida Historical Quarterly

On New Year's Day, 1920, Florida was a sparsely populated, geographically isolated, and politically insignificant state. The state's population, the smallest in the South, had not yet reached the one million mark. Florida ranked thirty-second of forty-eight states, having just surpassed Colorado in population.1 In comparison, southern neighbors Alabama and Georgia recorded populations of 2.4 and 2.9 million inhabitants. The influence of North Florida and the Panhandle had crested by 1920. By 1930, new places and cities that had not even been born in 1910 signified the pulse beat and direction of Florida: Boca Raton, Coral Gables, and Miami Beach. …

"A New Social Awakening": James Hudson, Florida A. & M. University's Religious Life Program, And The 1956 Tallahassee Bus Boycott, Larry O. Rivers

Florida Historical Quarterly

On May 28, 1956, an event occurred on the Tallahassee campus of Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University (FAMU) that fused an educator and religious leader, his teachings on nonviolence, a detestable act of racial discrimination, and the passion of well-prepared university students into a crusade for social change.

Introduction: 500 Years Of Florida History-The Twentieth Century, Connie L. Lester Jun 2022

Introduction: 500 Years Of Florida History-The Twentieth Century, Connie L. Lester

Florida Historical Quarterly

This is the last of the special issues devoted to the celebration of Florida's 500 Years of History. Launched in 2013 in conjunction with the state's commemoration of the landing of Juan Ponce de Leon on the peninsula, the Florida Historical Quarterly editors proposed a multi-year, multi-issue endeavor to capture a snapshot of Florida history at the second decade of the twenty-first century. As conceived the project called for 6 special issues, one each for the 16th, 17th, 18th, and 20th centuries and two for the long 19th century (1800-1920). At completion, the special issues included the work of 31 …

The Evolving Suffrage Militancy Of Mary Nolan, Judith Pouche

Florida Historical Quarterly

Petite, frail, physically impaired, and seventy-three years old, Mary Nolan could easily be underestimated by anyone foolish enough to equate physical vigor with mental strength. On November 14, 1917, several men brutalized the Jacksonville grandmother as she endured what suffragists would soon call the "Night of Terror" in a Virginia prison. One guard had told her, "I'll take you and handle you, and you'll be sorry you made me." Nolan recalled: "A man sprang at me, and caught me by the shoulder. ... I was jerked down the steps and away into the dark ... [,and later] they pushed me …

The Right To Vote And The Long Nineteenth Century In Florida, Robert Cassanello Jun 2022

The Right To Vote And The Long Nineteenth Century In Florida, Robert Cassanello

Florida Historical Quarterly

These special issues are meant to reflect on the quincentennial history of Ponce de Leon's landing on the shores of the Florida peninsula and as historians we are challenged to understand and come to terms with the consequence of those actions. The editors of the Florida Historical Quarterly have asked the contributors to explore Florida's past through the lens of a century long view. The nineteenth century presents such a unique challenge for these types of historical reflections because so much by way of technology, communication, transportation, societal relations transformed more rapidly than any previously recorded century. The world was …

African Americans In Florida, 1870-1920: A Historiographical Essay, David H. Jackson Jun 2022

African Americans In Florida, 1870-1920: A Historiographical Essay, David H. Jackson

Florida Historical Quarterly

The history of African Americans in Florida is a subject area that remains under-researched. While historians have generally done a commendable job examining the topic for the last fifty years or so, Florida still lags behind other southern states when it comes to scholarship on its African American populace. Thus, this essay seeks to review some of the scholarly works that have been published on the subject of African Americans in Florida from 1870 to 1920. It is arranged thematically with scholarship addressing major topics such as: Reconstruction, racial relations, racial violence, politics, religion, urban history, labor, black women, education, …
