  • Episodes from a Hudson River Town Peak of the Catskills, Ulster County’S 4,200-Foot Slide Mountain, May Have Poked up out of the Frozen Terrain
    1 Prehistoric Times Our Landscape and First People The countryside along the Hudson River and throughout Greene County always has been a lure for settlers and speculators. Newcomers and longtime residents find the waterway, its tributaries, the Catskills, and our hills and valleys a primary reason for living and enjoying life here. New Baltimore and its surroundings were formed and massaged by the dynamic forces of nature, the result of ongoing geologic events over millions of years.1 The most prominent geographic features in the region came into being during what geologists called the Paleozoic era, nearly 550 million years ago. It was a time when continents collided and parted, causing upheavals that pushed vast land masses into hills and mountains and complementing lowlands. The Kalkberg, the spiny ridge running through New Baltimore, is named for one of the rock layers formed in ancient times. Immense seas covered much of New York and served as collect- ing pools for sediments that consolidated into today’s rock formations. The only animals around were simple forms of jellyfish, sponges, and arthropods with their characteristic jointed legs and exoskeletons, like grasshoppers and beetles. The next integral formation event happened 1.6 million years ago during the Pleistocene epoch when the Laurentide ice mass developed in Canada. This continental glacier grew unyieldingly, expanding south- ward and retreating several times, radically altering the landscape time and again as it traveled. Greene County was buried. Only the highest 5 © 2011 State University of New York Press, Albany 6 / Episodes from a Hudson River Town peak of the Catskills, Ulster County’s 4,200-foot Slide Mountain, may have poked up out of the frozen terrain.

As the English-speaking population grew, so did a desire for services in English, primarily driven by members of the Church of England, the official church of the Province. The city‘s population, decimated following its destruction in 1690, was about 300 households in 1759 when land for an English chapel was purchased.1 Ground was broken the same year for a building originally planned as a chapel for all English speaking peoples,2 and Presbyterians and other ―dissenters‖ (non-Anglican Protestants) participated in both land and material acquisition. Construction began in 1762. As for the Presbyterians, while the actual date of organization is unknown, the best current approximation is 1760. Friction developed early on between the two competing English groups. A 1765 letter from the Schenectady Anglican churchwardens to Sir William Johnson sought his acceptance as a trustee and his support for a petition before the Governor to grant the congregation a ―Charter to Secure their Rights and privileges in the Church built here‖ in order to ―prevent for the future the presbyterians from making any unjust attempts on the priviledges in the Church.‖3 –Continued on Page 4 John C.

Some ethnologists believe the Shawnee descended from the Fort Ancient people. The Shawnees were wanderers, who lived in many places in the south. They became associated closely with the Delaware in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Able fighters, the Shawnees stubbornly resisted white pressures until the Treaty of Greene Ville in 1795. At the time of the arrival of the European explorers on the shores of the North American continent, the American Indians were living in a network of highly developed cultures. Each group lived in similar housing, wore similar clothing, ate similar food, and enjoyed similar tribal life. In the geographical northeastern part of North America, the principal American Indian tribes were: Abittibi, Abenaki, Algonquin, Beothuk, Cayuga, Chippewa, Delaware, Eastern Cree, Erie, Forest Potawatomi, Huron, Iroquois, Illinois, Kickapoo, Mohicans, Maliseet, Massachusetts, Menominee, Miami, Micmac, Mississauga, Mohawk, Montagnais, Munsee, Muskekowug, Nanticoke, Narragansett, Naskapi, Neutral, Nipissing, Ojibwa, Oneida, Onondaga, Ottawa, Passamaquoddy, Penobscot, Peoria, Pequot, Piankashaw, Prairie Potawatomi, Sauk-Fox, Seneca, Susquehanna, Swamp-Cree, Tuscarora, Winnebago, and Wyandot.

  • THE HUDSON RIVER VALLEY REVIEW a Journal of Regional Studies
    SPRING 2019 THE HUDSON RIVER VALLEY REVIEW A Journal of Regional Studies The Hudson River Valley Institute at Marist College is supported by a major grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities. This issue of The Hudson River Valley Review has been generously underwritten by the following: Peter Bienstock THE POUGHKEEpsIE GRAND HOTEL SHAWANGUNK VALLEY AND CONFERENCE CENTER …centrally located in the Historic Hudson Valley CONSERVANCY midway between NYC and Albany… Conservation • Preservation • Education www.pokgrand.com From the Editors While perhaps not at first apparent, the articles in this issue share a common theme—struggle. The Dutch colonists had to carve a home out of the New World wilderness. Two centuries later, descendants of the original inhabitants of a part of that world (which wasn’t entirely wilderness after all) tried to reclaim their sovereignty. Just fifty years after that, women undertook a march from New York City to Albany to assert their right to vote and gain adherents for their cause. Finally, while the rise and fall of Albany’s lumber district perhaps doesn’t readily seem to fit the theme, here, too, a struggle took place to establish and maintain a community on and around it. This latter essay underscores the essential role of technological innovation, a concept that leads us to a second underlying theme of this issue—progress. Sometimes welcome, sometimes not, for better or worse it is always unstoppable. Call for Essays The Hudson River Valley Review will consider essays on all aspects of the Hudson River Valley — its intellectual, political, economic, social, and cultural history, its prehistory, architecture, literature, art, and music — as well as essays on the ideas and ideologies of regionalism itself.

  • Becoming a “Nation of Statesmen”: the Mohicans' Incorporation Into the Iroquois League, 1671–1675
    ✦✧✦✧✦✧✦✧✦✧✦✧✦✧✦✧✦✧✦✧✦✧✦✧✦✧✦✧✦✧✦✧✦✧✦ Becoming a “Nation of Statesmen”: The Mohicans’ Incorporation into the Iroquois League, 1671–1675 evan haefeli HE 1670s were a pivotal period for the Indigenous his- T tory of New England and the eastern woodlands more generally. Most important was the war called King Philip’s or Metacomet’s that devastated the Indigenous communities of southern New England between 1675 and 1676 and contin- ued in Maine until the spring of 1678. The English victory owed more than a little to the intervention of the Mohawks of the Iroquois League, who struck an alliance with the New Englanders, prevented Metacomet’s people from resupplying themselves at Albany, and then forced them back to their na- tive country, weakened and lacking gunpowder. The Covenant Chain alliance that followed in 1677, mediated by the governor of New York, has dominated accounts of colonial Indian rela- tions as it reinforced the bond between the English colonists and the Iroquois League and guaranteed the subordination of the peoples who had fought with Metacomet. Having secured peace on their eastern border, the League could quickly van- quish the Susquehannocks and then proceed to attack Indige- nous nations further south. By 1680 the diplomatic landscape For their helpful comments on earlier versions of this article, I would like to thank my colleagues in Texas A&M University’s Caribbean and Atlantic Studies work- ing group, especially Ray Batchelor, Cynthia Bouton, and April Hatfield, as well as Side Emre, an anonymous reviewer, and Jonathan Chu.

  • Self- and Counter-Representations of Native Americans: Stereotypical Images of and New Images by Native Americans in Popular Media
    Intercultural Communication Studies XX: 2 (2011) LIU & ZH ANG Self- and Counter-Representations of Native Americans: Stereotypical Images of and New Images by Native Americans in Popular Media Kedong LIU & Hui ZH ANG Harbin Institute of Technology, China Abstract Historically speaking, American mainstream media have distorted Native American images, which has misled the formation of young Native Americans’ identity. The emerging Native American writer and film maker Sherman Alexie has countered the distortion by uttering his own voice and presenting his own image of the new American Indians. Alexie has replaced the reticent, subservient, disappearing “Noble Savage” with the expressive, free, and surviving new Indians. Alexie depicts successful and resilient American Indian characters and plots in films, novels (sometimes with cartoon illustrations). He has also disintegrated the stereotypical mascot and ushered in a new Indian image. Racial genocide, assimilation, and oppression are substituted by syncretism. Keywords: Native American, film, TV, radio, novel, cartoon Introduction American mainstream media have always tended to distort Native American images. The film, Dances with Wolves; the radio and TV Western, The Lone Ranger; and the novel, by Fenimore Cooper, The Last of the Mohicans, to name just a few, present negative or romanticized images of American Indians, either nasty or cruel, or subservient and laconic, but all disappearing. 1These distortions have severely misled the formation of young Native Americans’ identity. As a counter strategy, native writers and film workers began to counteract by putting whites in their lenses and representing their own lives and images. This study2 takes examples from several media: film, TV, radio, books, cartoons, etc., and focuses on the works of the emerging Native American Artist Sherman Alexie.
