Political Reconstruction In Florida, Jeffell H. Shofner
Political Reconstruction In Florida, Jeffell H. Shofner
Florida Historical Quarterly
Until well into the 1930s historians accepted as standard the interpretations of Reconstruction offered by the “Dunning school.” Professor William A. Dunning and his students at Columbia University had undertaken extensive research in preparing scholarly monographs on the Reconstruction period in each southern state. But they wrote at a time when most Americans considered Negroes as inferior beings and their studies usually began with this basic assumption. It usually followed that the Congressional Radicals had been wrong in all they attempted. Helpless white populations had been subjugated by selfish outsiders who plundered the states, using ignorant Negro voters to maintain …
Early History Of The Cross-Florida Barge Canal, Charles E. Bennett
Early History Of The Cross-Florida Barge Canal, Charles E. Bennett
Florida Historical Quarterly
The dream of constructing an all-water route across the peninsula of Florida to carry freight and passengers has often been discussed and debated in the past history of this state. Many plans were projected and discarded, surveys were made, and work even began on a canal during the 1930s. However, only now is the Cross-Florida Barge Canal actually underway with completion scheduled for sometime after 1970.
Henry Bradley Plant And Florida, Dudley S. Johnson
Henry Bradley Plant And Florida, Dudley S. Johnson
Florida Historical Quarterly
Florida was a fertile field for developers during the last quarter of the nineteenth century. Lumbermen were at work in the northern part of the state; the citrus industry was in its infancy; phosphate mining was just beginning; and northern vacationers and some invalids were discovering the restorative powers of Florida’s climate. Railroads were needed to serve and to further develop these diverse interests. Many men dreamed of building a network of rails in the state, and some began the project. Most failed, although a few succeeded. Henry Bradley Plant was one of the more successful. He constructed railroads, hotels, …

Bishop Michael J. Curley And Anti-Catholic Nativism In Florida, David P. Page
Florida Historical Quarterly
The four-hundred year history of the Catholic Church in Florida, beginning with the Spanish settlements of the sixteenth century, and continuing through successive English, Spanish, and United States occupations of the peninsula, has not been an entirely peaceful passage. It has been marked by periodic conflicts between Indians and missionaries, missionaries and Spanish officials, missionaries and English raiders, parish priests and governors, parishioners and United States officials, and, finally, during the first half of the nineteenth century, between parish trustees and pastors. In the years between the Civil War and World War I, the church in Florida enjoyed a consoling …

An Episode In The Third Seminole War, James W. Covington
An Episode In The Third Seminole War, James W. Covington
Florida Historical Quarterly
The Third Seminole War covers the period from December 1855 to the spring of 1858. Although this war brought to a complete standstill nearly all economic growth in central and southern Florida and involved a large expenditure of money and men by national and state forces, it has been virtually ignored by writers who have preferred to pay more attention to the much more famous conflict which lasted from 1835 to 1842. The Second Seminole War attained national attention because the Indians were not crushed and because such well-known figures as Thomas Jesup, Zachary Taylor, Winfield Scott, Richard K. Call, …
Historical Beginnings Of Ybor City And Modern Tampa, Durward Long
Historical Beginnings Of Ybor City And Modern Tampa, Durward Long
Florida Historical Quarterly
The story of the revitalization of Tampa, Florida at the end of the nineteenth century is illustrative of many developments accompanying the expansion of cities in that era. Part of the story concerns the attempt to build Ybor City, separate from but adjacent to Tampa, based on immigrant capital and immigrant labor. While Ybor City failed to retain its separateness from Tampa, its cigars - “Hav-A-Tampa, ” “Tampa Nuggets,” “Tampa Straights,” and many others - widely advertised this Florida city. Tampa became famous for cigars even though production began in Ybor City in 1886, and her reputation continues. As late …
American Seizure Of Amelia Island, Richard G. Lowe
American Seizure Of Amelia Island, Richard G. Lowe
Florida Historical Quarterly
In 1817 the United States took actions at a small island off the northeast coast of Florida which aroused protests from the Spanish government. A band of South American adventurers had occupied Spanish-owned Amelia Island in June and had been using their base as a smugglers’ gateway into Georgia and the southern states. In December 1817, the United States purged the island of its invaders, apparently trying to get rid of this group of troublesome ruffians and smugglers that were agitating along the southern border. A closer examination of this event, however, reveals an additional motive as well.
The Narrow Waters Strategies Of Pedro Menendez, Paul E. Hoffman
The Narrow Waters Strategies Of Pedro Menendez, Paul E. Hoffman
Florida Historical Quarterly
In a letter to Philip II from Cadiz on December 3, 1570, Pedro Menendez de Aviles, Adelantado of Florida and Captain General of the Armada for the Guarding and Security of the Coasts, Islands, and Ports of the Indies, said that he planned to “place myself in the Bahama Channel where he [Jacques Sores, considered to be one of the best French corsairs and at the time at large in the Caribbean] could not come out without my seeing him.” Menendez recognized that the control of the Bahama Channel was essential for the security of the Caribbean. He said that …

Can You See Me? Re-Centering Biracial Voices Through Chicana Intervention In Children's Literature, Andrea Putala
Can You See Me? Re-Centering Biracial Voices Through Chicana Intervention In Children's Literature, Andrea Putala
Master of Arts in American Studies Capstones
Can You See Me? Re-Centering Biracial Voices through Chicana Intervention in Children’s Literature offers critical reflection on an applied research project: the writing of a children’s book that interrogates how introducing a complex theoretical concept would take form. Children’s media introduced in the home and the school are some of the biggest influences when it comes to identity and societal expectations. Unfortunately for students who are bi or multiracial, there has been a lot of erasure of their voices and experiences that do not help cultivate positive identity formations. Chicana feminists situated their voices, histories, and experiences within their …
Endless Scrolling: Technology, (Dis)Connection, And Place In Times Of Covid-19, Felecia Glover
Endless Scrolling: Technology, (Dis)Connection, And Place In Times Of Covid-19, Felecia Glover
Master of Arts in American Studies Capstones
The COVID-19 pandemic created sudden ruptures in the ways many people connected with one another in their day to day lives. Though experiences differed, many turned to communication technology as a means to continue to connect despite COVID restrictions. For some this meant learning to collaborate with coworkers through a screen, while for others it allowed for a sense of closeness with those at a great geographical distance. For many, the seemingly separate spheres of the work, home, and social life all began to take place in one physical, and many virtual, spaces. Though it allows for a smoother transition …

Kinstitution: A Topia Between Archive And Proposal, Christopher Lineberry
Theses and Dissertations
Situating Topher Lineberry's work, this paper offers a primer on institutional critique, preliminary developments of "kinstitutional critique," and the cultivation of family-derived art history through the work of the artist's grandmother, Helen Lineberry. Feeding into a working understanding of family-and-kin-as-institution, the paper ultimately locates Topher Lineberry's work between relations to place, historical archives, and speculative proposals.

Some (Im)Material Girls, Living In (Im)Material Worlds, With Seeds, Stars, And Shit, Matthew Weiderspon
Theses and Dissertations
This writing situates material and gestural vocabularies cultivated in my artwork in relation to my lived experience; primarily my rural upbringing in Colorado. Scattered floor dispersals, calling sounds, and bodily movements desire reconsiderations of hope in precarity through a disorientation of place, association, scale, and language.
