January 2016 Meeting, and Many Folks in the University of Saint Joseph Community 1 Robert Shaffer for the PHS newsletter, which PHS News features many highlights of that conference, including minutes of the PHS Board and General January 2016 Meeting, and many folks in the University of Saint Joseph community. In broad strokes, the feedback I have received about the conference has been nothing but extremely positive, from veteran PHS attendees to first-time graduate student presenters. Many folks spoke of the high-quality scholarly presentations, the richness of the conference program and sessions and the convivial atmosphere (that is a hallmark for PHS conferences). For the first time, we had a twitter Newsletter of the presence. We welcomed scholars locally, nationally and internationally and we can look Peace History Society forward to a special issue of Peace & Change in www.peacehistorysociety.org the future. I hope that many PHS members had the opportunity to attend the AHA this year in President’s Column Atlanta, and specifically the PHS-sponsored panel organized by Ian Fletcher and Robbie Lieberman: “The Whole World is Mobilizing: Global Dimensions of Peace and Antiwar Activism around the Vietnam War.” (See p. 26.) I also hope that many PHS members will share their scholarly expertise with contributions to Mitch Hall’s forthcoming Opposition to War: An Encyclopedia of United States Peace and Antiwar Movements. (See p. 28.) Membership renewals for 2016 have gone out, so if you have not done so, make sure you take Kevin J. Callahan care of this promptly to ensure no disruption in receipt of our journal, Peace & Change. Editor Greetings Peace History Society Members!

Houser will retire from the American Committee on Africa, having served as executive director since 1955. Leadership will be handed on to his colleague of many years, research director Jennifer Davis. It gives me great pleasure to take this opportunity to recall George's achievements and to welcome Jennifer as the new director. George Houser arrived in Luanda this April the very day that the leaders of the Front Line States were meeting thereto discuss Namibia's future. He spent two hours with Angolan Foreign Minister Paulo Jorge the night before the Foreign Minister met with Chester Crocker, Assistant Secretary of Statedesignate for African Affairs. Being in the right place at the right time is something George Houser has been doing for more than twenty five years. He was in Addis Ababa in 1963 when the Organization of African Unity was founded, and in Ghana in 1954 and Zimbabwe in 1980 when important elections were held in those two countries. He attended the All African People's Conference in 1958, 1960, and 1961, meeting Patrice Lumumba, Tom Mboya, Kwame Nkrumah and many others. George met Nkrumah on his first trip to Africa in 1954, and ACOA helped sponsor a dinner in his honor in 1958 which was attended by 1100 people. Kenneth Kaunda and Julius Nyerere were among numerous other leaders who ACOA invited to the US to speak or assisted as they came to the UN to petition.

  • Radical Pacifism, Civil Rights, and the Journey of Reconciliation
    09-Mollin 12/2/03 3:26 PM Page 113 The Limits of Egalitarianism: Radical Pacifism, Civil Rights, and the Journey of Reconciliation Marian Mollin In April 1947, a group of young men posed for a photograph outside of civil rights attorney Spottswood Robinson’s office in Richmond, Virginia. Dressed in suits and ties, their arms held overcoats and overnight bags while their faces carried an air of eager anticipation. They seemed, from the camera’s perspective, ready to embark on an exciting adventure. Certainly, in a nation still divided by race, this visibly interracial group of black and white men would have caused people to stop and take notice. But it was the less visible motivations behind this trip that most notably set these men apart. All of the group’s key organizers and most of its members came from the emerging radical pacifist movement. Opposed to violence in all forms, many had spent much of World War II behind prison walls as conscientious objectors and resisters to war. Committed to social justice, they saw the struggle for peace and the fight for racial equality as inextricably linked. Ardent egalitarians, they tried to live according to what they called the brotherhood principle of equality and mutual respect. As pacifists and as militant activists, they believed that nonviolent action offered the best hope for achieving fundamental social change. Now, in the wake of the Second World War, these men were prepared to embark on a new political jour- ney and to become, as they inscribed in the scrapbook that chronicled their traveling adventures, “courageous” makers of history.1 Radical History Review Issue 88 (winter 2004): 113–38 Copyright 2004 by MARHO: The Radical Historians’ Organization, Inc.

    THE REVEREND GEORGE MILLS HOUSER “NARRATIVE HISTORY” AMOUNTS TO FABULATION, THE REAL STUFF BEING MERE CHRONOLOGY Reverend George Houser “Stack of the Artist of Kouroo” Project HDT WHAT? INDEX REVEREND GEORGE HOUSER GEORGE MILLS HOUSER 1916 June 2, Friday: George Mills Houser was born in Cleveland, Ohio to a Methodist missionary couple, the Reverend Otto Henry Houser and Ethel Mills Houser. He would be with his parents at Manila in the Philippine Islands and turn eight while the family was in London on its way back to the United States. Influenced by Henry David Thoreau and his theories on how to use nonviolent resistance to achieve social change, he would join the War Resisters League and in November 1940 while studying at Union Theological Seminary in New York become a war protestor, and join with other ministerial students in conscientious objection to draft registration. After release from the federal prison in Danbury, Connecticut with a felony record, he would find himself unwelcome at the Union Theological Seminary because he had in that principled stand somehow discredited this Christian institution, and would need to complete his ministerial training instead at the Theological Seminary in Chicago.

  • Should US Military Evaders Be Extradited From
    Should U.S. Military Evaders Be Extradited From Canada? Pro and Con Arguments By Dave Olson, August 2004 - 1! - © 2004-5 Dave Olson, “Should US Military Service Evaders be Extradited?” Yes. Military service evaders are in violation of U.S. laws, as well as personally breaching their contract and oath. Alternative programs exist for legitimate conscientious objectors to fulfill their duties in a responsible manner. Harboring cowardly deserters strains International relations and also drains the resources of the host country. No. AWOL personnel would be prosecuted, and possibly persecuted or executed, if repatriated to the United States. Military personnel, who oppose war for moral, ethical, or political reasons, should be recognized as political refuges and granted asylum if requested. No one should be forced to put their life at risk for an illegal war or be obliged to obey immoral orders. - 2! - © 2004-5 Dave Olson, “Should US Military Service Evaders be Extradited?” Yes Military service evaders are in violation of U.S. laws, as well as personally breaching their contract and oath. Alternative programs exist for legitimate conscientious objectors to fulfill their duties in a responsible manner. Harboring cowardly deserters strains International relations and also drains the resources of the host country. 1) Military personnel have a legal responsibility to fulfil their required military service period. Deserters must be extradited to ensure critical military discipline lest soldiers flee in time of war leaving their country vulnerable. Any country that harbors deserters against extradition requests is complicit with this law- breaking activity which infringes on a sovereign nation’s ability to make war.
