JanMohamed, Chair Hertha D. Sweet Wong Waldo E. Martin, Jr. Spring 2010 1 Abstract The Relationship of Newspaper Articles to Modern Culture by Aurelio José Pérez Doctor of Philosophy in English University of California, Berkeley Professor Abdul JanMohamed, Chair In this dissertation, I examine legal definitions of race within the United States and the representation and reformulation of these categories within U.S. literature. The substrate of this dissertation is a collection of American literary and legal texts from the 17th through the 20th centuries. I examine how these texts chronicle, represent, and often intentionally misrepresent individuals’ attempts to subvert and even openly challenge delimited identifications such as ‘immigrant’ or ‘slave.’ Often these challenges are leveled against the normative identificatory organ of ‘Law,’ that is, the judicial processes and legal decisions that establish and confirm these reductive identifications. The mode of the challenges I examine is movement, or literal mobility. When normative pathways of identification begin to fail, mobility gains importance as a means of transgressing, figuratively and literally, usually impermeable classificatory boundaries.

Articlesdiscuss the War on Poverty, the people involved, how it succeeded,and how it ultimately failed. One article examines the role of theCouncil of the Southern Mountains, established in 1913. Federalofficials used the council's reputation to facilitate communicationsbetween the Office of Economic Opportunity (0E0) and local Community Action Programs. Council members held OE0 at least partly responsiblefor shortcomings of the anti-poverty effort and found itdifficult to square 0E0's approach with local realities. During the late 1960sthe council underwent radical transformation. Federal relationscooled and money dried up. Since that time, it has been reconstructedand survives as a promoter of ideas and grassroots Appalachianprograms. The magazine includes reprinted news articles aboutthe War on Poverty and profiles former council members. A separatearticle profiles David Whisnant, author and leader of theAppalachian Studies movement.

Museum of Appalachia Clinton, TN 2819 Andersonville Hwy, 37716 Elaine Meyer, President Telephone: 865-494-7680 Fax: 865-494-8957 [email protected] www.museumofappalachia.org The Museum of Appalachia, an official Smithsonian Affiliate, is a farm-village with some three- dozen historic log structures. The exhibit also hosts halls filled with authentic Appalachian artifacts, gardens, and farm animals in a picturesque setting surrounded by split-rail fences. This extensive and fascinating Museum tells the stories of the Appalachian people in their own words and through the artifacts they left behind. It’s a valuable resource for teaching regional history and culture. The Mark Twain Family Cabin was the Tennessee home of the famous American author’s family; they moved to Missouri some five months before his birth. Structures include log cabins, a rare cantilevered barn, one-room schoolhouse, log church, and old-time sawmill. The Hall of Fame houses numerous exhibits including an extensive collection of old- time musical instruments, perpetual motion machine, and a machine gun captured by World War I hero Sergeant Alvin York. Musicians play old-time tunes “on the porch” for visitors. Program info: Student groups receive an interactive musical program and orientation. Children learn about life in historic Appalachia, and have the opportunity to sing and play simple musical instruments including the spoons, washboards, washtub bass, and saws. A self-guided Museum tour follows. Cost: $6.00 per student Hours: Seasonal; call for days and hours of operation Lunch: Groups may bring picnic lunches to eat on the grounds Shopping: American-made regional crafts available in the gift shop at the Museum Chaperones: Free admission for teachers Teaching resources, developed according to state curriculum guidelines, are available on the Museum website, www.museumofappalachia.org.
