(December 2011) William Francis Collopy, B.A., Iona College; M.L.A., University of St. Thomas Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Harold C. Livesay The dissertation argues that Catholicism’s theology and sacramentalism constituted the foundation of a ministry that from Reconstruction through the 1930s extended the religion’s reach in the U.S. beyond its historical loci of numerical strength and influence to African American communities in the South. The dissertation draws on decrees of the Council of Trent, papal encyclicals, pastoral letters, theological treatises, and Catholic interpretation of Judeo-Christian scripture to demonstrate that the Church’s beliefs manifestly shaped its African American ministry. -

GREATER KANSAS CITY and the URBAN CRISIS, 1830-1968 By
GREATER KANSAS CITY AND THE URBAN CRISIS, 1830-1968 by VAN WILLIAM HUTCHISON B.A., Indiana State University, 1999 M.A., Indiana State University, 2001 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2013 Abstract In the last two decades, the study of postwar American cities has gone through a significant revisionist reinterpretation that overturned an older story of urban decay and decline beginning with the tumultuous 1960s and the notion that a conservative white suburban backlash politics against civil rights and liberalism appeared only after 1966. These new studies have shown that, in fact, American cities had been in jeopardy as far back as the 1940s and that white right-wing backlash against civil rights was also much older than previously thought. This “urban crisis” scholarship also directly rebutted neoconservative and New Right arguments that Great Society liberal programs were at fault for the decline of inner-city African American neighborhoods in the past few decades by showing that the private sector real estate industry and 1930s New Deal housing programs, influenced by biased industry guidelines, caused those conditions through redlining. My case study similarly recasts the history of American inner cities in the last half of the twentieth century. It uses the Greater Kansas City metropolitan area, especially Kansas City, Missouri and Kansas City, Kansas, as a case study. I deliberately chose Kansas City because traditional urban histories and labor histories have tended to ignore it in favor of cities further east or on the west coast. -

History of the Diocese of Providence
History of the Diocese of Providence The history below was researched and authored by Fr. Robert Hayman, Pastor Emeritus of St. Sebastian Church in Providence. To contact Fr. Hayman, please write: Cathedral of SS. Peter & Paul, 30 Fenner Street, Providence, RI 02903. The Beginnings of Catholicism in Rhode Island Rather than observing its 125th anniversary in 1997, the Diocese of Providence might well be observing its 152nd. In 1843, when the Diocese of Boston, which had until then encompassed all of New England, was divided, the Holy See designed Hartford, Connecticut as the see city of the new diocese. The first Bishop of Hartford, the Vermont-born convert, Fr. William Barber Tyler, was a priest of the Diocese of Boston. Shortly after his ordination on March 17, 1844, Bishop Tyler was formally installed as head of the new diocese in Holy Trinity Church, Hartford, on Sunday, April 14, 1844. Hartford at that time had a population of roughly 13,000, of whom between 500 and 600 were adult Catholics, and was centrally located within the new diocese. However, Holy Trinity was burdened with debt and there was little extra revenue to support another priest living in the parish. Providence, on the other hand, had a population of 23,000, of whom over 2,000 were Catholics. There were two churches in the city, SS. Peter and Paul and St. Patrick’s. SS. Peter and Paul was the larger of the two and was debt free. After talking the matter over with Bishop Joseph Fenwick of Boston, Bishop Tyler came over to Providence on the first Sunday of July 1844, and announced to the parishioners of SS. -

History of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish. Seventy-Fifth Anniversary of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church, New Bedford, MA
History of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish. Seventy-Fifth Anniversary of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church, New Bedford, MA. CAP at Orchard Lake. Over one hundred years ago the first wave of Polish immigrants arrived at the shores of North America. Two reasons governed their departure from their homeland: the economic and the political conditions in Poland. The need for bread and the desire for freedom, then, impelled these emigrants across the Atlantic Ocean. Knowing neither the language nor the existing con- ditions on these shores, they were, nonetheless, full of hope that through their hard work and savings they would improve their lot and that of their families. Anyone with even a passing knowledge of the history of Polish immigration is aware of the Poles' strong dedication to and love for the church. Wherever a group of them settled, their primary concern was to found and erect, from their meager possessions, a parish church and a school for their children. Their earnings being so scant and the groups being so small, it was very difficult to realize such a lofty aim. Understandably, initial progress was slow but steady. To other nationalities, the industry and the absorbing devotion of the Poles to their church were impressive. Consequently, after only 125 years, Poles can pride themselves on a wealth of religious, ethnic and social undertakings in every small or large city in the United States and Canada. All of this will remain a lasting tribute to their faith and their devotion to the Roman Catholic Church. Founder and First Pastor - Rev. -
