How California Was Won: Race, Citizenship, And The Colonial Roots Of California, 1846 – 1879 Abstract The construction of California as an American state was a colonial project premised upon Indigenous removal, state-supported land dispossession, the perpetuation of unfree labor systems and legal, race- based discrimination alongside successful Anglo-American settlement. This dissertation, entitled “How the West was Won: Race, Citizenship, and the Colonial Roots of California, 1849 - 1879” argues that the incorporation of California and its diverse peoples into the U.S. depended on processes of colonization that produced and justified an adaptable acialr hierarchy that protected white privilege and supported a racially-exclusive conception of citizenship. In the first section, I trace how the California Constitution and federal and state legislation violated the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. This legal system empowered Anglo-American migrants seeking territorial, political, and economic control of the region by allowing for the dispossession of Californio and Indigenous communities and legal discrimination against Californio, Indigenous, Black, and Chinese persons.

  • EARLY HISTORY of SAN LORENZO the Ohlone We First Acknowledge That All of What Is Now Called San Lorenzo Is on the Homeland of Th
    EARLY HISTORY OF SAN LORENZO The Ohlone We first acknowledge that all of what is now called San Lorenzo is on the homeland of the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe of the San Francisco Bay Area. We acknowledge and respect their connection to this region and give thanks for the opportunity to live, work and learn on their traditional homeland. East Bay landscape, from The Ohlone Way, Malcolm Margolin, Heyday Books For thousands of years, Ohlone people have lived in the Bay Area, along the bay, the creeks and springs. The word “Ohlone” is used today to describe the original people who live in the San Francisco Bay Area. The word “Ohlone” describes a language group made up of many smaller tribes. These tribes have some differences in culture and traditions, but they are all connected by similar languages. In the area around the East Bay, the language spoken is Chochenyo Ohlone. The land of San Lorenzo is on the homeland of the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe. In Chochenyo, Muwekma means “the People.” The Ohlone were careful stewards of the natural resources around them. They didn’t just live off the abundance of the Bay Area - they shaped the landscape to meet their needs and ensure sustainability for other life as well. They built homes and canoes of natural tule reeds. They caught fish and shellfish from the coastal waters, and caught shorebirds with nets. They harvested acorns, and gathered seeds, roots and berries from the wide variety of plants and grasses that grow in the region. Ohlone Village, mural by Ann Thiermann for the Santa Cruz Museum of Natural History.

  • Seventy-Five Years in California; a History of Events and Life in California
    Seventy-five years in California; a history of events and life in California THE first habitation in Yerba Buena, a tent dwelling erected in 1835 by Capt. Wm. A. Richardson, at the corner of Clay and Dupont streets, occupied the site of No. 18 on the view map. In July, 1836, Jacob Primer Leese built the first house, just south of Richardson's location. The residence and place of business of William Heath Davis, author of “Seventy-five Years in California,” is marked No. 7. Yerba Buena Cove appears in its natural condition with the waters of the Bay nearly touching Montgomery Street. The Laguna Salada, or Saltwater Lagoon, now almost forgotten, is shown where Montgomery and Jackson streets cross. It was over this tidal inlet that William S. Hinckley, when Alcade, built the first bridge in California in 1844. This rare view of the San Francisco of 1846-7 fittingly illustrates the early days of the city which William Heath Davis describes. To the north of the home of Wm. A. Leidesdorff—No. 11—Wm. Heath Davis built the first brick building of more than one story in California in 1849, leasing it to the U. S. Treasury for a custom house. The flagpole upon which Capt. John B. Montgomery raised the American flag July 9, 1846, was removed from the Plaza in 1850 and re-erected in front of the Davis building, where it was destroyed by the fire of May 4, 1851. California Street was laid out by Jasper o'Farrell, who enlarged the survey of the town made by Jean Jacques Vioget in 1839.
