Pendas This dissertation examines the relationship between Black America and East Germany from 1949 to 1989, exploring the ways in which two unlikely partners used international solidarity to achieve goals of domestic importance. Despite the growing number of works addressing the black experience in and with Imperial Germany, Nazi Germany, West Germany, and contemporary Germany, few studies have devoted attention to the black experience in and with East Germany. In this work, the outline of this transatlantic relationship is defined, detailing who was involved in the friendship, why they were involved, and what they hoped to gain from this alliance.

  • Brian Patchett Was My Contemporary
    1 A foretaste of this historical article appeared in Sub Rosa winter issue, p. 4. A fascinating, well-researched piece about an Intelligence Corps defector in the Cold War. Of more than passing interest is that Brian Patchett was my contemporary. (Please note that for very long pieces such as this, we only lightly proofread.) Ed. Sergeant Brian Patchett and Other Wall-Crossers by Paul Croxson, 2015 On July 6 1963, the East German News Agency, A.N.D, announced the defection of Brian Patchett stating that ‘he had been working on the monitoring of East German and Soviet radio communications’. This was partly untrue as no German communications were being monitored at Gatow and he couldn’t speak German. He had, however, seemingly defected. In 1953, No. 1 Wireless Regt., then based in Münster, set up a detachment manned by Intelligence Corps Voice Ops in Berlin known as Royal Signals Detachment, RAF Gatow. As was nearly always the case, no public mention of the Intelligence Corps contingent there was made. It was based at Gatow Airport, originally opened by Goering in 1936 as the Deutsche Verjehrsflugschule (DVS) – German Civil Aviation Pilots’ Training School) a covert organisation for training pilots for the Luftwaffe. Geoffrey Elliott, who also served there, in his book Secret Classrooms1 describes the camp and life, ‘The detachment was housed in an anonymous building on the road that ran through the pine trees along the northern perimeter of the airfield. The buildings had survived the flattening of Berlin surprisingly well, the only signs of damage being the heads and swastikas ruthlessly hammered off the eagles which still remained, set in stone on the Kaserne walls.

These are not outmoded terms and neither Tony traditional Labour policies but also see them introducing Blair or anyone else can change the reality of how power, New Labour policies too. What do you criticise? The SNP left wealth and people are interconnected through the repetition can make all the accommodations it likes, but it knows that Scotrail’s job is to make profits for its investors - of platitudes. It is not true to say that there is no necessary money spent cutting business taxes is money spent prolonging contradiction between the policies of the left and the right.

WEST: Well, I guess start with birth. Born in Seattle in January 1910. I was removed to San Francisco with my family during the First World War. Went through grammar school in San Francisco. Then we moved down the peninsula to Burlingame. I went to high school there for a year. And then I went to a preparatory school in Marin County just north of San Francisco, from where I graduated in 1928. Upon my graduation, my godmother, who gave me a part of a ticket to a, not a ticket, but a... She had been planning on going on a tour of the Far East under the auspices of a man named Upton Close [? of Washington Hall]. She decided not to go and transferred it to me. I had been admitted to Stanford and was planning to go there. Then I began to talk to various of my father's friends. My father had spent a certain amount of time in the Far East. An apparent opportunity came to go to work for British-American Tobacco in Hangzhou, which I expected to visit during the course of this trip. Interview with George L.

  • Cleveland Architects Database
    Clevland Landmarks Commission Cleveland Architects Database The following is a listing of architects and master builders that have worked in Cleveland, from the 1820’s until the 1930’s. Discovering which architects designed certain buildings was determined by utilizing several sources, including the City of Cleveland Building Permits, and publications that included American Architect and Builder News, Inland Architect, Interstate Architect, the Ohio Architect and Builder, the Annals of Cleveland, the Plain Dealer, the Leader, the Press, Material Facts, the Bystander, and Cleveland Town Topics. The Cleveland Public Library card index for Architect’s in the Fine Arts Department was used. Books on Cleveland Architecture that were consulted included Cleveland Architecture 1876 – 1976, and the American Institute of Architects Guide to Cleveland Architecture were consulted. A catalogue of architectural drawings maintained by the Western Reserve Historical Society was consulted. The Cleveland Necrology file maintained by the Cleveland Public Library, the United States Census, and Cleveland City Directories were consulted in compiling this database. For the purposes of this database an architect was defined as anyone that called himself or herself as an architect. Robert Keiser compiled the Cleveland Architects as a hobby in after work hours over several years. This project terminates with 1930. Local building activity was severely curtailed by the Great Depression, and did not recover until the 1950’s. Many of the references in the database have

Martin Luther King’s and Angela Davis’s visits to West and East Germany: an Introduction In the history of the Black Civil Rights Movement the names of Martin Luther King and Angela Davis are well known. What is less known is their visit to Berlin in 1964 and, respectively 1972. Even more, the speeches they gave are not so easy to be found or commonly taught at university. With the Cold War and the struggle for Black freedom as a background, the US social and political situation starts to show a few gaps that will definitely become more prominent with the end of the Vietnam War; protest movements from students to Black people have been spreading all over the country in the mid-1960s.
