M. Brooks, Statistical Reporting Service, U.S. Dept. of Agriculture 1977 I FOREWORD The Statistical Reporting Service, as with any organization, needs to know its past to understand the present and appraise the future. Accordingly, our technical procedures are peri- ^odically set forth in ''Scope and Methods of the Statistical Reporting Service," and the agency's early development and program expansion were presented in "The Story of Agricultural Estimates." However, most important are the people who de- veloped this complex and efficient statistical service for agriculture and those who maintain and expand it today. Dr. Harry C. Trelogan, SRS Administrator, 1961-1975, arranged for Emerson M. Brooks to prepare this informal account of some of the people who steered SRS's course from 1933 to 1961. The series of biographical sketches selected by the author are representative of the people who helped develop the per- sonality of SRS and provide the talent to meet challenges for accurate and timely agricultural information. This narrative touching the critical issues of that period and the way they'^ were resolved adds to our understanding of the agency and helps maintain the esprit de corps that has strengthened our work since it started in 1862. Our history provides us some valuable lessons, for "those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." W.

  • “Bug-Out Boogie” – the Swan Song of Segregation in the United States
    “BUG-OUT BOOGIE” – THE SWAN SONG OF SEGREGATION IN THE UNITED STATES ARMY: DESEGREGATION DURING THE KOREAN WAR AND DISSOLUTION OF THE ALL-BLACK 24th INFANTRY REGIMENT BY C2014 Ben Thomas Post II Submitted to the graduate degree program in History and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ___________________________________ Dr. Theodore Wilson, Chairperson ___________________________________ Dr. Adrian Lewis, Committee Member _____________________________ Dr. Jeffrey Moran, Committee Member _____________________________ Dr. Roger Spiller, Committee Member _____________________________ Dr. Barbara Thompson, Committee Member Date defended: August 15, 2014 The Dissertation Committee for Ben Thomas Post II certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: “BUG-OUT BOOGIE” – THE SWAN SONG OF SEGREGATION IN THE UNITED STATES ARMY: DESEGREGATION DURING THE KOREAN WAR AND DISSOLUTION OF THE ALL-BLACK 24th INFANTRY REGIMENT ___________________________________ Dr. Theodore Wilson, Chairperson Date approved: August 15, 2014 ii Abstract In tracing the origins of the movement to desegregate the U.S. Army, most scholars pointed to President Truman’s Executive Order 9981 signed on July 26, 1948. Other scholars highlighted the work done by the “President’s Committee on Equality and Opportunity in the Armed Services,” also known as the Fahy Committee, which was formed as a result of Order 9981. However, when the United States was compelled to take military action following the surprise attack by North Korean forces on June 25, 1950, the U.S. Army units sent into action in Korea were mostly composed of segregated units such as the all-black 24th Infantry Regiment.

THE ASSIMILATED ASIAN AMERICAN AS AMERICAN ACTION HERO: ANNA MAY WONG, KEYE LUKE, AND JAMES SHIGETA IN THE CLASSICAL HOLLYWOOD DETECTIVE FILM PHILIPPA GATES In Hollywood film, there is a distinction made between “Asian” as a racial and national category and “Asian American” as an ethnic one—the former often being criminalised for their cultural autonomy while the latter were lauded when they assimilated into mainstream, American culture.1 While Charlie Chan embodies the former, he is one of the rare examples of an Asian character at the center of a Classical Hollywood film who was presented as the hero, namely the protagonist with whom the mainstream (read: white) filmgoer was aligned.

  • Film and the Chinese Medical Humanities
    Film and the Chinese Medical Humanities “This collection of film studies brings together the creative work of China’s most talented filmmakers as they reflect on contemporary social problems, work out in narratives and images an original analysis of what’s wrong with us (as individuals, as a society, and in cultural settings), and as they propose paths to redemption.” – Judith Farquhar, Max Palevsky Professor Emerita, Department of Anthropology, University of Chicago Film and the Chinese Medical Humanities is the first book to reflect on the power of film in representing medical and health discourse in China in both the past and the present, as well as in shaping its future. Drawing on both feature and documentary films from mainland China, the chapters each engage with the field of medicine through the visual arts. They cover themes such as the history of doctors and their concepts of disease and therapies, understanding the patient experience of illness and death, and establishing empathy and compassion in medical practice, as well as the HIV/AIDs epidemic during the 1980s and 1990s and changing attitudes towards disability. Inherently interdisciplinary in nature, the contributors therefore provide different perspectives from the fields of history, psychiatry, film studies, anthropology, linguistics, public health and occupational therapy as they relate to China and people who identify as Chinese. Their combined approaches are united by a passion for improving the cross-cultural understanding of the body and ultimately healthcare itself. A key resource for educators in the Medical Humanities, this book will be useful to students and scholars of Chinese Studies and Film Studies as well as global health, medical anthropology and medical history.
