Learning to Remember Slavery at the Museum: School Field-Trips, Difficult Histories and Shifting Historical Consciousness LEARNING TO REMEMBER SLAVERY AT THE MUSEUM: SCHOOL FIELD-TRIPS, DIFFICULT HISTORIES AND SHIFTING HISTORICAL CONSCIOUSNESS Nikki Spalding A thesis submitted for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Arts and Cultures Newcastle University June 2012 ABSTRACT Taking as its point of departure Understanding Slavery, a national, multi-museum education project that includes learning resources, lesson-plans and a web-site, this thesis investigates the performance of recent shifts in historical consciousness in the context of museum field- trip sessions developed in England in tandem with the 2007 bicentenary of the abolition of the slave trade. It argues that, as important cultural memory products, government- sponsored education initiatives require the same academic attention that history textbooks receive. This research combines macro- and micro-analyses in order to examine the role of education during politically charged periods of heightened commemorative activity, demonstrating how the production and consumption of educational media in museums influence – and are influenced by – political, historical and cultural discourses, changes in the curriculum, and shifts within historical consciousness. Using analysis of qualitative data generated through observations of nine school field-trips, discussions with museum education staff and pre- and post-visit surveys with pupils and teachers (where possible), this thesis examines the experiences of school pupils (aged eleven to fourteen) learning about the history of slavery in the years immediately following the bicentenary. In addition to fieldwork undertaken at museums in Hull, Liverpool and London, this thesis also includes fieldwork carried out at a museum in Ontario, where school groups learn about the Underground Railroad and early Black settlement in Canada. This comparative case study offers an opportunity to critically consider the dominant trends in pedagogy and practice that have evolved in England in recent years as a result of multi- site initiatives, collaborative resource development, professional workshops and teacher training programmes. This reflective assessment is achieved through an examination of key themes emerging from the data, including issues surrounding the ‘universal’ lessons of slavery history for citizenship education, the pedagogy and ethics of object handling and the use of drama, role-play and empathy. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First of all I wish to thank Rhiannon Mason, for her unwavering support and encouragement over the last five years; she has been a constant source of inspiration, and her passion, understanding and guidance have played an invaluable role in shaping the time I have spent in ICCHS, both as an MA student and then as a research postgraduate. Secondly, I would like to thank Areti Galani for her tremendous contribution as my second supervisor, in particular for always bringing her enthusiasm, expertise and patience to supervisor meetings. I also want to thank both Rhiannon and Areti for their tireless work as the directors of research postgraduate studies at ICCHS. All of the staff at the International Centre for Cultural and Heritage Studies have been welcoming and supportive throughout my time in the department. In particular, I would like to thank Aron Mazel for sharing both his compassion and his stories. I would also like to thank Peter Davis, Gerard Corsane, Myra Giesen, Andrew Newman and Chris Whitehead for their kind encouragement and advice, and Niesha Doyle, Sylvia Brown and Marianne Archbold for all their help over the years. Many thanks must go to my partners in crime, whose friendships have enriched my life; Stephanie Hawke, Tori Park, Suzie Thomas, Ino Maragoudaki, Bryony Onciul, Justin Sikora and last but by no means least Michelle Stefano. Steph and Tori – 1.12 massive! I wouldn’t have made it through those first few years without them. Suzie for being my academic Yoda and showing me how it’s done. Ino held my hand through some difficult times and always made me smile. My many conversations with Bryony reassured me that I was not alone and helped me figure out solutions to any problems I was facing. Justin has been a constant source of distraction and procrastination since his arrival, for which I am eternally grateful! Michelle (and Whiskey), I will never be able to repay you for the emotional and intellectual support you have given me; you have been an absolute rock. I must also acknowledge the numerous staff at my four case study museums for the wonderfully generous attitude they all showed in sharing their time, knowledge, experiences, resources and, in the case of Buxton Museum, their hospitality, during my fieldwork. On a similar note, I am grateful to the teachers (and pupils) from all of the schools I observed for accommodating my research needs and enthusiastically sharing their expertise and reflections. I would also like to thank the participants of the Their Past, Your iii Future InSite programme for the many thought-provoking conversations that shaped the early stages of this research. I also owe a huge thank you to Andrew Pitts for designing and developing the website used in this research and for his wonderfully persistent, perfectionist approach. To Sue Waite and Ben Simmons, I am grateful firstly for their professional advice and support, but mostly for their friendship, and for making my seven months in Plymouth both enjoyable and memorable. I must also acknowledge the financial support of the Arts and Humanities Research Council, who not only funded my studies for three years, but also paid for my study visit to Canada. Thank you to Emily Beeston and Steve Emeneau for giving me a place to stay whilst in Ontario and for helping me fall in love with their beautiful country. For their personal and, all too often, financial support, I would like to thank my loving parents, who self-admittedly have no idea what I have been up to over the last four years, but are very proud of me all the same. My family and friends have all been a wonderful source of fun and relaxation during these years, and I would particularly like to thank David, Jayne, Andrew and Claire Spalding, Jill Hunter (the best housemate ever), Evan Mulligan, Sarah Lundy, Lucy Pickering, Becky Mayhew, Kate Smith, Vicki Wolverson, Alice New, Alex Hutchinson, Megan Dunmall, Simon Watt and Olcay Sert for always being there for non-museum or research related activities. Lastly, I would like to dedicate this dissertation to my A-level English teacher, Chas Ponsford, and my undergraduate English Literature tutor, Kate Davies. I hope that in some small way this acknowledges how important the kind and timely expressions of their belief in me have been; without them, I doubt that completing a PhD would ever have seemed possible.

  • Black Georgians
    Subject Guide Black Georgians Ref. Wong/6/98 Ref. AN/3 Ref. EPHEMERA/292 Background The Georgian period covers the years 1714 to 1837, from the reign of King George I, the great grandson of King James I, through to the end of King William IV’s reign. For some, the Georgian period extends only until 1830, finishing with the death of King George IV. This subject guide, however, recognises the regency of King George IV’s brother, King William IV, which ended with his death in 1837. In 1837, Queen Victoria ascends to the throne, ending the Georgian period and introducing the Victorian period. The Georgian period was a time of immense growth and change in Britain, a pivotal point in British history. The emergence of Industrialisation during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries changed the landscape and economy of Britain forever, through the introduction of steam engines, large-scale production factories, and the development of a new network of canals.1 During the eighteenth century, there were a number of pioneering individuals who worked relentlessly as abolitionists, poets, political leaders, and radicals. They actively challenged prevailing notions of white supremacy and the system of enslavement that, until then, was dominating British consciousness. A number of these individuals published first- person testimonies relating the horrors of enslavement. These forcefully drew attention to a trade that many in Georgian society were unable to fully comprehend. These prevailing notions of white supremacy were challenged in all aspects of British society, through the arts, politics and sports. Whilst there were a number of prominent figures leading and shaping the campaign for racial equality in Georgian Britain, there were a larger number of more “everyday” Black Georgians, working particularly as domestic servants.

  • Communist China's Policy of Oppression in East Turkestan
    ABOUT THE AUTHOR Now writing under the pen-name of HARUN YAHYA, Adnan Oktar was born in Ankara in 1956. Having complet- ed his primary and secondary education in Ankara, he stud- ied fine arts at Istanbul's Mimar Sinan University and philos- ophy at Istanbul University. Since the 1980s, he has published many books on political, scientific, and faith-related issues. Harun Yahya is well-known as the author of important works disclosing the imposture of evolutionists, their invalid claims, and the dark liaisons between Darwinism and such bloody ide- ologies as fascism and communism. Harun Yahya’s works, translated into 63 different languages, constitute a collection for a total of more than 55,000 pages with 40,000 illustrations. His pen-name is a composite of the names Harun (Aaron) and Yahya (John), in memory of the two esteemed Prophets who fought against their peoples' lack of faith. The Prophet's seal on his books' covers is symbolic and is linked to their contents. It represents the Qur'an (the Final Scripture) and Prophet Muhammad (may Allah bless him and grant him peace), last of the prophets. Under the guidance of the Qur'an and the Sunnah (teachings of the Prophet [may Allah bless him and grant him peace]), the author makes it his purpose to disprove each fundamental tenet of irreli- gious ideologies and to have the "last word," so as to completely silence the objections raised against reli- gion. He uses the seal of the final Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace), who attained ultimate wisdom and moral perfection, as a sign of his intention to offer the last word.

  • Crossing the Strait from Morocco to the United States: the Transnational Gendering of the Atlantic World Before 1830
    CROSSING THE STRAIT FROM MOROCCO TO THE UNITED STATES: THE TRANSNATIONAL GENDERING OF THE ATLANTIC WORLD BEFORE 1830 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Marsha R. Robinson, MA ®®®®® The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Claire Robertson, Advisor Professor Ahmad Sikainga _________________________ Professor Stephen Hall Advisor History Graduate Program Copyright by Marsha Renee Robinson 2006 ABSTRACT This world women’s history is a comparative legal study tracing two thousand years of cultural contact through 1830 between the Saharan-based, gynecentric, Berian culture foundational to the Maliki Islam of the Berbers, Southern Arabs and Iberians, and the Mesopotamian and eastern Mediterranean patriarchy foundational to West Asiatic Islam and Western Christianity. The work explores the female-friendly Berian values common to the Saharan salt marsh diaspora and Almoravid Andalusia and North Africa, correcting patriarchal Sassanid influences upon Abbasid and Almohad omissions of female politicians from their imperial histories of the Maghrib. The European patriarchal bias began during Isabel I’s Reconquista Spain when the Spanish Inquisition attempted a purge of Berian matriliny. It continued with British harem envy, hyper-virility and political jealousy as Anglo-Americans engaged Barbary states. Western Christian philosophers, Freemasons, politicians and ministers used misperceptions of the harem to limit Western women’s economic and legal rights. In the U.S., this resulted in the simultaneous rise of domesticity, left-handed marriages, and de facto American polygyny. The Berber cultural influence on the U.S. occurred in the 1833 U.S.
