The NorthCarolina Awards 2009 The Award The North Carolina Awards were instituted in 1961 by the North Carolina General Assembly. The awards have been given annually since 1964 to citizens who have distinguished themselves and obtained notable accomplishments in the fields of fine arts, literature, public service, and science. It is the highest honor the Governor and the State of North Carolina can bestow. The NorthCarolina Awards Committee Jack Cozort, Chairman Raleigh, North Carolina Hal Crowther Hillsborough, North Carolina Selma E. Fox Charlotte, North Carolina Jean W. McLaughlin Penland, North Carolina Charles A. Sanders Durham, North Carolina Message from the Governor The six outstanding North Carolinians who will receive the 2009 North Carolina Award embody North Carolina’s spirit. These distinguished luminaries are in good company. Previous recipients include Nobel Laureates, visionary leaders, statesmen and stateswomen, titans of business, and world renowned artists. Each recipient exemplifies the state motto, Esse Quam Videri, “To Be Rather Than To Seem.” It is my high honor and privilege to bestow upon them the North Carolina Award, our highest civilian tribute. They have our enduring thanks for sharing their great talents, leadership and service with us.

In fact, Barrax has been called a “poet’s poet.” His poems “resonate with intelligence, integrity and, yes, music” writes North Carolina Poet Laureate Kathryn Stripling Byer. He himself says that “I am curious about everything. Everything that I read goes into my work.. What I write is a natural outgrowth of what I read and what I learn through my reading.” For a life committed to truth-telling and

Goldsmith Department of History Duke University Date:_______________________ Approved: ___________________________ Nancy MacLean, Supervisor ___________________________ Edward J. Balleisen ___________________________ Adriane Lentz-Smith ___________________________ Gary Gereffi ___________________________ Helen Ladd An abstract of a dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Graduate School of Duke University 2018 Copyright by William D. Goldsmith 2018 Abstract This dissertation shows how an array of policymakers, invested in uprooting an unequal political economy descended from the plantation system and Jim Crow, gravitated to education as a centerpiece of development strategy, and why so many are still disappointed in its outcomes. By looking at state-wide policymaking in North Carolina and policy effects in the state’s black belt counties, this study shows why the civil rights movement was vital for shifting state policy in former Jim Crow states towards greater investment in human resources. By breaking down employment barriers to African Americans and opening up the South to new people and ideas, the civil rights movement fostered a new climate for economic policymaking, and a new ecosystem of organizations flourished to promote equitable growth.

    Motion for Appropriate Relief Pursuant to the Racial Justice Act

    STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA IN THE GENERAL COURT OF JUSTICE COUNTY OF STANLY SUPERIOR COURT DIVISION 95 CRS 567 STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA ) v. ) ) GUY TOBIAS LEGRANDE, Defendant. ) ........................................................... MOTION FOR APPROPRIATE RELIEF PURSUANT TO THE RACIAL JUSTICE ACT ............................................................ Defendant, Guy Tobias LeGrande, through counsel, files this Motion for Appropriate Relief pursuant to the Racial Justice Act (HA), N.C. Gen. Stat. $$ 15A-2010 to 15A-2012, the Sixth, Eighth, and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution, and Art. I, $9 1, 19, 24, 26, and 27 of the North Carolina Constitution. Under the RJA and constitutional law, Defendant, who is currently under a sentence of death, is entitled to a sentence of life imprisonment without parole. INTRODUCTION 1. The evidence set out in this Motion establishes that race is a significant factor in North Carolina's system of capital punishment. The comprehensive, scientific study presented here demonstrates that race is a significant factor in capital proceedings. Prosecutors across the state strike eligible black and other racial minority venire members at double the rate they strike eligible white venire members and individuals who kill whites have significantly increased odds of receiving a death sentence than those who kill blacks or other racial minorities. 2. The evidence set out in this Motion also establishes that race is an extraordinarily significant factor in capital proceedings in the 20Ih ~rosecutorialDistrict. The disparity seen between the prosecutors' strikes of eligible black and other racial minority venire members compared to eligible white venire members is the highest of any district in North Carolina that has more than one person currently on death row.

    North Carolina: Major Education Initiatives (1999-2009) and Statistics

    Offices of Research and Education Accountability OREA TENNESSEE COMPTROLLER OF THE TREASURY, JUSTIN P. W ILSON North Carolina: Major Education Initiatives (1999-2009) and Statistics Prepared for the House Education Committee, Chairman Harry Brooks February 2010 North Carolina’s ABCs of Public Education program has been the state’s major education initiative over the past decade. The ABCs of Public Education was initiated under former Governor Jim Hunt, passed in 1996 by the North Carolina legislature, and expanded upon by former Governor Mike Easley. The program has focused on strong accountability, teaching the basics with an emphasis on high educational standards, and maximum local control. Outlined below are the main elements of the ABCs program, as well as other notable education initiatives that took place over the past decade. Broad coalition of state leaders, sustained focus on education reform For at least two decades, North Carolina’s elected officials, state leaders, policymakers, educators, and the business community have consistently made education one of the state’s top priorities. The Public School Forum was created in 1986 to bring business, political, and education leaders together as “a standing blue ribbon commission on education and the economy.” With a 60-member board that includes an equal number of business, political, and education leaders, the Forum sponsors yearly study groups that develop recommendations around specific education policy issues. These recommendations are often implemented into law in a form very near to what was proposed by the study group. In addition to the Public School Forum, a succession of education reform-minded governors have focused on education from the highest levels of state government.

Information about North Carolina also is featured in 14 appendices, including education statistics (p105), North Carolina counties population map, state budget, and state symbols.
