GERMAN IMMIGRANTS, AFRICAN AMERICANS, and the RECONSTRUCTION of CITIZENSHIP, 1865-1877 DISSERTATION Presented In
NEW CITIZENS: GERMAN IMMIGRANTS, AFRICAN AMERICANS, AND THE RECONSTRUCTION OF CITIZENSHIP, 1865-1877 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Alison Clark Efford, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2008 Doctoral Examination Committee: Professor John L. Brooke, Adviser Approved by Professor Mitchell Snay ____________________________ Adviser Professor Michael L. Benedict Department of History Graduate Program Professor Kevin Boyle ABSTRACT This work explores how German immigrants influenced the reshaping of American citizenship following the Civil War and emancipation. It takes a new approach to old questions: How did African American men achieve citizenship rights under the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments? Why were those rights only inconsistently protected for over a century? German Americans had a distinctive effect on the outcome of Reconstruction because they contributed a significant number of votes to the ruling Republican Party, they remained sensitive to European events, and most of all, they were acutely conscious of their own status as new American citizens. Drawing on the rich yet largely untapped supply of German-language periodicals and correspondence in Missouri, Ohio, and Washington, D.C., I recover the debate over citizenship within the German-American public sphere and evaluate its national ramifications. Partisan, religious, and class differences colored how immigrants approached African American rights. Yet for all the divisions among German Americans, their collective response to the Revolutions of 1848 and the Franco-Prussian War and German unification in 1870 and 1871 left its mark on the opportunities and disappointments of Reconstruction.

Summary: The purpose of this paper is to highlight the importance of the Spanish language and the remarkable contribution to Major League Baseball by Spanish- American players. Keywords: baseball, sports, Major League Baseball, Spanish, Latinos Introduction The purpose of this paper is to highlight the remarkable contribution made to Major League Baseball (MLB) by players from Spanish America both in terms of © Orlando Alba Baseball: a U.S. Sport with a Spanish-American Stamp Informes del Observatorio / Observatorio Reports. 017-01/2016EN ISSN: 2373-874X (online) doi: 10.15427/OR017-01/2016EN Instituto Cervantes at FAS - Harvard University © Instituto Cervantes at the Faculty of Arts and Sciences of Harvard University quantity and quality.1 The central idea is that the significant and valuable Spanish-American presence in the sports arena has a very positive impact on the collective psyche of the immigrant community to which these athletes belong. Moreover, this impact extends beyond the limited context of sport since, in addition to the obvious economic benefits for many families, it enhances the image of the Spanish-speaking community in the United States. At the level of language, contact allows English to influence Spanish, especially in the area of vocabulary, which Spanish assimilates and adapts according to its own peculiar structures. Baseball, which was invented in the United States during the first half of the nineteenth century, was introduced into Spanish America about thirty or forty years later.

The Mexican American War and Its Effects
1 The Mexican-American War and its Effects Justin GaVette History 499 Senior Thesis Primary Reader: Professor Rector Secondary Reader: Professor Jensen May 16, 2005 2 During the 19th century the United States acquired a huge portion of land through the Mexican-American War (1846-1848). President James Polk wished to acquire California by peaceful means, so he sent American envoy John Slidell to Mexico in 1845 to negotiate the sale of Texas, New Mexico, and California for no more than $25 million. This mission failed, so Polk sent General Zachary Taylor across the Rio Grande.1 Mexico saw the crossing of the Nueces River by Taylor’s troops as an act of war so Mexican troops were ordered to cross the Rio Grande. President Polk saw this as aggression towards the US and he declared war on Mexico on May 13, 1846 with the vote of 173-14 in Congress and 42-2 in the Senate both in favor of the war,2 thus starting the Mexican-American War.3 The war was waged for two years and the Americans did not cease hostilities until Mexico ratified the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo under US terms. The treaty was signed on February 2, 1848 and the US Senate amended then ratified it 4 by a vote of 38-14. 1 Jesse S.
