    Jenkin Lloyd Jones Jr. Through the headlines of the Tulsa Tribune the Jones family has been a part of local and national history. Chapter 01 – 1:15 Introduction Announcer: The grandfather of Jenkin Lloyd Jones Jr., Richard Lloyd Jones, bought the Tulsa Democrat from Sand Springs founder Charles Page, and turned it into the Tribune. The Tulsa Tribune was an afternoon newspaper and consistently republican; it never endorsed a democrat for U.S. president and did not endorse a democrat for governor until 1958. Jenkin Lloyd Jones Sr. was editor of the Tribune from 1941 to 1988, and publisher until 1991. Jenkin Jones brother Richard Lloyd Jones was the Tribune’s president. Jones Airport in Tulsa is named for Richard Lloyd Jones Jr. Other Jones family members served in various capacities on the paper, including Jenkin’s son, Jenkin Lloyd Jones Jr., who was the last publisher and editor of the paper which closed September 30, 1992. Like other large city evening newspapers, its readership had declined, causing financial losses. Jenk Jones spent thirty-two years at the Tulsa Tribune in jobs ranging from reporter to editor and publisher. He is a member of the Oklahoma Journalism Hall of Fame and the Universtiy of Tulsa Hall of Fame. And now Jenk Jones tells the story of his family and the Tulsa Tribune on Voices of Oklahoma, preserving our state’s history, one voice at a time.

Author Kathryn Smith will deliver a lecture on her latest book, Wright on Exhibit (Princeton University Press, 2017), at Santa Monica Public Library (Moore Ruble Yudell, 2006). More than 100 exhibitions of Frank Lloyd Wright’s work were mounted between 1894 and his death in 1959. Wright organized the majority of these exhibitions himself and viewed them as crucial to his self-presentation, as he did his extensive writings. He used them to promote his designs, appeal to new viewers, and persuade his detractors. Wright on Exhibit presents the first history of this neglected aspect of the architect’s influential career. Drawing extensively from Wright’s unpublished correspondence, Smith challenges the preconceived notion of Wright as a self-promoter who displayed his work in search of money, clients, and fame. She shows how he was an artist-architect projecting an avant-garde program, an innovator who expanded the palette of installation design “Sixty Years of Living Architecture” at the Guggenheim Museum in 1953. as technology evolved, and a social activist driven to revolutionize Photo: Pedro E. Guerrero society through design. Wright on Exhibit features color renderings, photos, and plans, as well as a checklist of exhibitions and an illustrated catalog of extant and lost models made under Wright’s supervision.

This philosophy was best exemplified by his design for Fallingwater (1935), which has been called "the best all-time work of American architecture".[1] Wright was a leader of the Prairie School movement of architecture and developed the concept of the Usonian home, his unique vision for urban planning in the United States.

  • A Great Architect
    A GREAT ARCHITECT WITH LOVE FOR NATURE AND LOTS OF FIGHT by Marilyn Secrest, Smithsonian, February, 1994 His reputation thrown into doubt after early success with his Prairie houses, Frank Lloyd Wright had a stunning finish Westhope, the house he built for his cousin Richard Lloyd Jones, is the subject of one of the many telling incidents in Frank Lloyd Wright's long career. Almost as soon as it was built, the roof began to leak. Lloyd Jones, in a fury, went to his desk and called his cousin. "Damn it, Frank," he raged, "it's leaking on my desk!" To which Wright calmly replied, "Richard, why don't you move your desk?" Wright, imperious and cocksure, the architect whose roofs always leaked: this view coalesced during his lifetime. If he was anything, the great and flamboyant architect was considered a law unto himself, an aberration, a historical anachronism; hardly the seminal figure he loudly proclaimed himself to Fallingwater—its concrete terraces cantilevered over swift-moving Bear be. That was the verdict when he died in 1959. Run in Pennsylvania, is known worldwide. Wright's 1936 perspective But Wright's reputation has experienced a view of the house is in the exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art. strong revival; nowadays, few contest the claim that he is the greatest American architect of the 20th century. In recognition of his new eminence, on February 20 the Museum of Modern Art in New York City will open the largest retrospective exhibition it has ever devoted to an architect. Curated by Terence Riley and Peter Reed, it will give a complete historical overview of Wright's work.

  • On the 100Th Anniversary of the Tulsa Race Massacre the Rev. Dr. J. Carl Gregg 30 May 2021 Frederickuu.Org
    The Stories We Tell Matter: On the 100th Anniversary of the Tulsa Race Massacre The Rev. Dr. J. Carl Gregg 30 May 2021 frederickuu.org The stories we tell matter. The choices we make about which stories to teach our children matter. All the stories we tell and retell, year after year matter. Our choices about stories we allow to be neglected or suppressed matter as well. And regarding stories and perspectives most and least prominent in our culture, who decides and who benefits matter. I bring all this up because tomorrow and the next day (May 31 and June 1) will mark the 100th anniversary of the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921. Although this event is now recognized as “the deadliest outbreak of white terrorist violence against a black community in American history,” the telling of this history was not only neglected, but downright suppressed for many years (Krehbiel xi). “Educators did not teach it. Government offices did not record it. Even archival copies of some newspaper accounts were selectively expunged” (The New York Times). In recent years the tide has started to turn—including the commitment of the Tulsa public school system to finally incorporate this history into their standard curriculum (https://www.tulsaschools.org/tulsaracemassacre). And for the general public, Greenwood Rising, a permanent history center in Tulsa, is opening soon to honor the legacy of all impacted by these events, and to “inspire meaningful, sustainable action” toward a more equitable future.

  • 'Yn Eu Hiaith Eu Hunain' / 'In Their Own Language'
    ‘YN EU HIAITH EU HUNAIN’ / ‘IN THEIR OWN LANGUAGE’: THE SETTLEMENT AND ASSIMILATION OF THE WELSH IN IOWA COUNTY, WISCONSIN, 1840-1920 Robert Humphries Submitted to the University of Wales Trinity Saint David in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts University of Wales Trinity Saint David, Lampeter 2012 i ABSTRACT Attracted by opportunities in lead mining and agriculture, the Welsh established a small but influential ethnic community in Iowa County, Wisconsin, in the mid-nineteenth century. However, it is a community that has so far escaped detailed historical study. This dissertation examines the settlement and assimilation of the Welsh between their arrival in the 1840s and the ethnic community’s effective dissipation in the early twentieth century. As Calvinistic Protestants from Britain, they were culturally similar to native- born Americans and other British immigrants. More than any other factor, it was the Welsh language that distinguished them from their neighbours and compelled them to settle close to each other and worship in their own congregations. Therefore this dissertation not only traces the development of the Welsh ethnic community, but also examines the role of language in shaping this process as well as how the immigrants’ perception of their native tongue changed. Although the Welsh went through a process of ‘ethnicization’ that reinforced their distinctive cultural identity, they also embraced mainstream American political and economic values. Indeed, the Welsh projected a public image of themselves as obedient citizens and were eager to assimilate. Rooted in beliefs they brought with them from Wales, these attitudes, as well as demographic change, contributed to the decline of Welsh linguistic and cultural identity in Iowa County in the early twentieth century.
