He was elected in 1977, the first Black mayor since Reconstruction. Tchula, a town of 2,000, is 75 percent Black and the official unemployment rate is 40 percent. Two thirds of the town is dependent upon welfare. Holmes County, where Tchula is located, is the tenth poorest in the U. S. The majority of Black people who live there are in Borricada photo homes which lack plumbing or electricity. When Eddie The four horsemen of the Apocalypse Women in the Nicaraguan revolution Carthan was elected mayor he began to make changes, securing federal funds to improve conditions, and mov­ ing to bring in small businesses. He initiated programs to repair, remodel and weatherize homes. He started a ln-person report on Nicaragua, Peru, Mexico day care program and a nutrition project for senior citi­ zens and handicapped.

  • High Cotton and the Low Road: an Unraveling Farm Bill Coalition and Its Implications
    REPRINTED AND DISTRIBUTED WITH PERMISSION OF THE DRAKE JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL LAW HIGH COTTON AND THE LOW ROAD: AN UNRAVELING FARM BILL COALITION AND ITS IMPLICATIONS Jonathan W. Coppess† At the center of this conversation is the United States Congress, the only institution in which representatives from throughout the nation come together to hash out national policy. In the 1850s, a crisis over fundamental American values and institutions—the slavery crisis—eroded the process of debate and compromise that gives Congress its purpose and power. In 2018, a crisis over different fundamentals—immigration, the rule of law, the status and safety of women and people of color—is doing much the same. If Congress’s checkered past teaches us anything on this score, it teaches this: A dysfunctional Congress can close off a vital arena for national dialogue, leaving us vulnerable in ways that we haven’t yet begun to fathom.1 Abstract ......................................................................................................... 344 I.

  • A Strategic Flip-Flop in the Caribbean 63
    Hoover Press : EPP 100 DP5 HPEP000100 23-02-00 rev1 page 62 62 William Ratliff and Roger Fontaine U.S. interference in Cuban affairs. In effect it gives him a veto over U.S. policy. Therefore the path of giving U.S. politicians a “way out” won’t in fact work because Castro will twist it to his interests. Better to just do it unilaterally on our own timetable. For the time being it appears U.S. policy will remain reactive—to Castro and to Cuban American pressure groups—irrespective of the interests of Americans and Cubans as a whole. Like parrots, all presi- dential hopefuls in the 2000 presidential elections propose varying ver- sions of the current failed policy. We have made much here of the negative role of the Cuba lobby, but we close by reiterating that their advocacy has not usually been different in kind from that of other pressure groups, simply much more effective. The buck falls on the politicians who cannot see the need for, or are afraid to support, a new policy for the post–cold war world. Notes 1. This presentation of the issues is based on but goes far beyond written testimony—“U.S. Cuban Policy—a New Strategy for the Future”— which the authors presented to the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Com- mittee on 24 May 1995. We have long advocated this change, beginning with William Ratliff, “The Big Cuba Myth,” San Jose Mercury News,15 December 1992, and William Ratliff and Roger Fontaine, “Foil Castro,” Washington Post, 30 June 1993.

    GOV 291 Cuba in the Post Cold War Era The United States and Cuba recently “normalized” relations, ending the last vestige of the Cold War. The course will offer an examination of the social, economic, and political roots of the Cuban revolution of 1959 and the changes brought about in Cuban politics and society as a result of the revolution. This course is a unique opportunity to study Cuban history and the political and economic system of one of the world's few remaining socialist countries. Students do reading on the historic background of the area under study and then focus on contemporary political, social, and economic issues through meeting with resource people: professors, political activists, and grass roots organizers. The course will be conducted in English but knowledge of Spanish will definitely enhance appreciation of our stay in Cuba and study of Cuban history, politics, and society. Tentative Itinerary: Activities will include: Meet with Cuban University students Attend Cuban cultural events, including a jazz club and baseball game Meet with Cuban academics on a range of topics from economic reforms on the island to US-Cuban relations Visit an urban agricultural farm Travel to Santa Clara to visit the Che Guevara Memorial Meet representatives of Cuban political organizations, including the Federation of Cuban women and a member of parliament Tour the city of Havana including its colonial sector Visits to a school and medical clinic There will be three meetings held prior to departure. Each will last two hours (6 hours) There will be four meetings held after the return from Cuba (8 hours) The dates for these meetings shall be determined.

As members of my advisory committee, Max Paul Friedman, Neil Jumonville and Michael Creswell were not only invaluable in the construction of this work, but were also instrumental in the furthering of my education. I would also like to thank Marcia Gorin and the other research librarians at Florida State University’s Strozier Library for showing me how to use the contents of that building. I realize that I have now named four people instead of three, but brevity should surely take a bow to research librarians for their amazing work.
