  • Minorities in the Confederate Army
    Minorities In The Confederate Army Historical facts concerning the ethnic makeup of the Confederate Army. By James S. Davis General William W. Loring Camp 1316 Sons of Confederate Veterans Many people today are taught that the War Between The States was about slavery and that Southern whites were attempting to establish a white-only, or a white-supremacist society, and that the north was fighting only to free the slaves. The truth about the diversity in the Confederate army is nothing like this work of fiction most of our children are taught. Not all of the Confederate soldiers came from the South, but from the North as well. Many were of foreign-birth, or from minorities within the Confederate States of America. Mexicans and Mexican-Americans enlisted, as well as African-Americans and even Native-Americans. Many unusual nationalities, such as Egypt and Syria, were represented on the Confederate enlistment rolls, and all of these groups made the Southern military a more interesting and diverse fighting force. The Confederate soldiers were indeed more varied than what is commonly portrayed today. This pamphlet is only intended to provide the reader with an overview of those who filled the ranks of the Confederate Army. I encourage all those seeking the truth concerning the minorities who wore the gray to explore the bibliography provided at the end of this pamphlet. *********** Confederates of European Descent Canadians enlisted to fight for the C.S.A. No clear reasons were given, but they are probably similar to many of the reasons given by the others. No exact number has ever been given, but the claim has been made by Canadians that they had 40,000 men in the Confederate ranks.

B LIPPINCOTT COMPANY PHILADELPHIA 1905 TOHE T FRIEND OF MY YOUTH MADAME E MILY S. KIEFE OF P ARIS THIS V OLUME IS AFFECTIONATELY I NSCRIBED BY THE A UTHOR 156700 " W herever possible, let us not be told about this man or that. Let us hear the man himself speak, let us see him act, and let us be left to form our own opinions about him. The historian, we are told, must not leave his readers to themselves. He must not only lay the facts before them : he must tell them what he himself thinks about those facts. In my opinion this is precisely what he ought not to do." — Froude on The Science of History. PREFACE 0 w rite a comprehensive history of the Jews of South Carolina is to-day a task of no small difficulty : not that there is any dearth of material at the disposal of the historian, but by reason of the very vastness of that material, of which scarcely anything has hitherto )een utilized. Twenty years ago the task would have been a much easier one. There were then several people still living in Charleston who were born in the first decade of the nine teenth century and who could have filled in many an inter esting gap that must now remain void.

  • Rabbi Marc Jordan Ben-Meir
    The Sons of Joshua (The Story of the Jewish Contribution to the Confederacy) Marc Jordan Ben-Meir, Ph.D. “Now Joshua son of Nun was filled with the spirit of wisdom because Moses had laid his hands upon him; and the Israelites heeded him, doing as the Lord commanded Moses.” The Holy Bible Deuteronomy 34:9 “The quarrel between the North and the South is, as it stands, solely a fiscal quarrel.” Charles Dickens, 1861 2 INTRODUCTION I love the Old South and tales of the Civil War. The effort that went into this book was because I wanted to share with people my love of the period; a gentler time. When I was in college and later graduate school I had to read and absorb information from huge texts that almost outweighed me. Too much information!!! But I also didn’t want to write short blurbs. What I settled for is the book before you. Short, not overweight, but packed with information written in an easy to read format and a bibliography supporting what I am presenting. Who would have imagined that Jefferson Davis had three Jews in his cabinet? Please, read. Enjoy. 3 DEDICATION To my grandparents the Fox’s and the Friedman’s as well as my parents Murray and Shirley Friedman. My past. To my beloved wife Tina who makes my life worth living. Thank you for your patience and support; especially when I have one of these crazy ideas. My present. To Naphtali, Dr. Ron, and Jonathan Ben-Meir; my sons who carry my name into the future.

  • The Whipping Man by Matthew Lopez
    Pacific Conservatory Theatre Student Matinee Program Presents The Whipping Man By Matthew Lopez Generously sponsored by Tim Bennett A Study Guide for Educators 1 Welcome to PCPA A NOTE TO THE TEACHER Thank you for bringing your students to PCPA. Here are some helpful hints for your visit to the Severson Theatre. The top priority of our staff is to provide an enjoyable experience of live theatre for you and your students. Use the study guide to prepare your students prior to the performance. Each study guide has grade level notations that will help you navigate to material you can use in your curriculum. SUGGESTIONS FOR STUDENT ETIQUETTE Notable behavior is a vital part of theater for youth. Going to the theater is not a casual event. It is a special occasion. If students are prepared properly, it will be a memorable, educational experience for all. 1. Have students enter the theater in a single file. We suggest you have one adult for every ten to fifteen students. Our ushers will assist you with locating your seats. Please wait until the usher has seated your party before any rearranging of seats to avoid injury and confusion. While seated, teachers should space themselves so they are visible, between every ten to fifteen students. Teachers and adults must remain with their group during the entire performance. 2. Once seated in the theater, students may go to the bathroom in small groups and with the teacher’s permission. Please chaperone younger students. It’s important to know that due to the intimacy of our theater space, should you exit while the show is in progress, you will not be allowed to re- enter the theatre until a moment within the performance that would allow you to be reseated with minimal distraction.
