Free Land Attracted Many Colonists to Texas in 1840S 3-29-92 “No Quitting Sense” We Claim Is Typically Texas
“Between the Creeks” Gwen Pettit This is a compilation of weekly newspaper columns on local history written by Gwen Pettit during 1986-1992 for the Allen Leader and the Allen American in Allen, Texas. Most of these articles were initially written and published, then run again later with changes and additions made. I compiled these articles from the Allen American on microfilm at the Allen Public Library and from the Allen Leader newspapers provided by Mike Williams. Then, I typed them into the computer and indexed them in 2006-07. Lois Curtis and then Rick Mann, Managing Editor of the Allen American gave permission for them to be reprinted on April 30, 2007, [email protected]. Please, contact me to obtain a free copy on a CD. I have given a copy of this to the Allen Public Library, the Harrington Library in Plano, the McKinney Library, the Allen Independent School District and the Lovejoy School District. Tom Keener of the Allen Heritage Guild has better copies of all these photographs and is currently working on an Allen history book. Keener offices at the Allen Public Library. Gwen was a longtime Allen resident with an avid interest in this area’s history. Some of her sources were: Pioneering in North Texas by Capt. Roy and Helen Hall, The History of Collin County by Stambaugh & Stambaugh, The Brown Papers by George Pearis Brown, The Peters Colony of Texas by Seymour V. Conner, Collin County census & tax records and verbal history from local long-time residents of the county. She does not document all of her sources. -

Epilogue itchcock and his works continue to experience life among generation Y Hand beyond, though it is admittedly disconcerting to walk into an undergraduate lecture hall and see few, if any, lights go on at the mention of his name. Disconcerting as it may be, all ill feelings are forgotten when I watch an auditorium of eighteen- to twenty-one-year-olds transported by the emotions, the humor, and the compulsions of his cinema. But certainly the college classroom is not the only guardian of Hitchcock ’ s fl ame. His fi lms still play at retrospectives, in fi lm festivals, in the rising number of fi lm studies classes in high schools, on Turner Classic Movies, and other networks devoted to the “ oldies. ” The wonderful Bates Motel has emerged as a TV serial prequel to Psycho , illustrating the formative years of Norman Bates; it will see a second season in the coming months. Alfred Hitchcock Presents and The Alfred Hitchcock Hour are still in strong syndication. Both his fi lms and television shows do very well in collections and singly on Amazon and other e-commerce sites. -

Commission on Public Art Inventory Review Online Comment Submissions the Public Comments in This Document Were Collected from Au
Commission on Public Art inventory review online comment submissions The public comments in this document were collected from August 15 to September 5. They are in response to a call from Mayor Greg Fischer, encouraging the public to add their voice to the review of public art that can be interpreted to honor bigotry, discrimination, racism and/or slavery. 40204: I am not opposed to removing the Castleman statue. I would miss having a horse in the neighborhood, however, so if it could be replaced by another rider, perhaps Oliver Lewis and Aristides, the first KY Derby winners. That would be cool. Any statue with Confederate imagery should be removed. Period. 40299: We should not have public murals and statues of leaders of the confederacy. The bottom line is that these men of the confederacy fought to keep hatred, bigotry and racism alive. I don't want our city to have statues honoring these men, because I know Louisville is an inclusive community dedicated to bringing different folks together. 40212: Remove all statues glorifying these traitors. I can’t imagine what a PoC feels about these abominations. 40243: Please leave history ALONE... 40208: A democracy should have monuments celebrating the oppressed and not the oppressors. We need to tear down any monuments celebrating the Confederacy. I also think you should add to this list nude portraits, paintings objectifying women, and paintings featuring people in poverty. I would recommend going through the library and removing all books before 1975 and blocking all websites that involve actual thinking. History has been written, to ignore it is unwise. -

Educator's Guide
Educator’s Guide With Common Core State Standards correlations Five of the original thirteen Freedom Riders study a map of the route they plan to take from Washington, D.C., to New Orleans, Louisiana. They are (left to right): Edward Blankenheim, James Farmer, Genevieve Hughes, the Reverend Benjamin Cox, and Henry “Hank” Thomas. AP Images Introduction Larry Dane Brimner begins his journalistic narrative about Freedom Ride 1961 with the four Supreme Court decisions that provided the foundation for this key event in the civil rights movement. Day-by-day accounts present not only what happened, but the context—the time, the politics, the cultural and political climate—so that today’s fourth through eighth grade students can get a fuller understanding of the significance of the Ride. Key players are introduced; segregation is revealed; violent confrontations are described; and on-the-spot decisions and responses are discussed. Along with many photographs, this is moment-to-moment history that offers your students a sense of what segregation was like in the South and how dedicated and courageous the Freedom Riders were. This guide provides activities, discussion questions, and content reviews that connect to language arts, history, geography, government, ethics, and critical thinking. Common Core standards are noted with each activity. Before Reading SOCIAL STUDIES: HISTORY; LANGUAGE: SPEAKING AND LISTENING Introduce your students to some of the riders and goals of Freedom Ride 1961. Watch the first two and a half minutes ofFreedom Riders, a documentary on the civil rights movement in the U.S. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66_kqSG6aHI They will learn why several of the riders wanted to be a part of this event. -
