  • Altgeld, John Peter
    • John Peter Altgeld was the most controversial pub­ lic figure in the eastern half oE the natIon in the 1890s, but he's the forgotten man in his home c\lmmuni­ ty of Little Washington, Richland County, Ohio. Hardly anybody now liv­ ing in the little rural neigh­ borhood southeast of Mans­ field ever heard of Alt­ geld. And it's a good bel that most Mansfitlders nev­ er did either. Several books have been written about this coura­ geous and colorful man. He has fascinated writers since he oecame governor of Illi­ !lois in 1892. Today he *wou;d be the idol of millions of young liberals throughout the na­ tion, yet he was one of the most maligned'men ever to hold public office. Born in Germany in 1847, Altgeld was brought to Rich­ land County when he was only a few months old. His parents settled near New­ ville in Worthington Town­ ship. The elder Altgeld held the popular German view of that era, that children should go to work as soon as they reached their teens. .'.. Schooling, it was felt, was ." -- a waste of time.

  • Sir Galahad & the Pols
    Core Idea: CARE Reform government. “Sir Galahad & the Pols” January 28, 1952 Time magazine cover story about Adlai Stevenson II, January 28, 1952 issue Excerpt: If Lincoln Steffens* was right, corruption is the norm of U.S. political life; in spite of reform, the pols always come back; the Sir Galahads, sooner or later, get licked, or get laughed out of court, or join the gang. But men like Adlai Stevenson have dedicated themselves to a more hopeful and more dynamic proposition: that the U.S. is not a static pattern but a still-continuing experiment—an experiment, among other things, in good government. *Steffens was an early twentieth-century muckraking journalist. Background: Although this Time magazine cover story ran six months prior to the Democratic National Convention, it was a clear indication that party leaders, including President Harry S. Truman, were increasingly interested in Stevenson and his political future. One week before this article appeared on newsstands, Truman invited Stevenson to the White House for a private meeting. At that time, both Truman and Stevenson remained tightlipped—at least publicly—about their near-term political aspirations. It wasn’t until losing the March 10 New Hampshire primary to Tennessee Sen. Estes Kefauver that Truman formerly announced he would not seek reelection. Stevenson, on the other hand, did not participate in the Democratic primaries, and only received his party’s nomination after being “drafted” during the August convention. Regardless, Truman used the January White House meeting with Stevenson to gauge the political strengths and weaknesses of the Illinois governor. As this article shows, it was Stevenson’s single term as Illinois governor that made him a national figure.

COWAN 2015 Immigrants, Nativists, and the Making of Chicago, 1835-1893 Mimi Cowan Advisor, Dr. Kevin Kenny Between 1835 and 1893, the majority of immigrants who settled in Chicago were of Irish or German birth. Even though the city’s economic leaders’ plans to transform Chicago into a center of international trade required the labor of these immigrants, Irish and German Chicagoans were still the targets of nativism. They were not, however, merely objects of nativism; instead, they were able to challenge nativist-inspired policies and assumptions about the inability of immigrants to become loyal Americans. They demonstrated their allegiance to the U. S. through service in independent ethnic militias and challenged policies that they felt unfairly targeted them, such as temperance laws in the 1850s, militia laws in the 1870s, and educational policy in the 1880s. But after 1865, as Chicago industrialized, labor conflict grew. As a result, the success of immigrants’ efforts to demonstrate their allegiance or combat nativist-inspired policies relied on their willingness to distance themselves from radicalism.

  • Performing Haymarket
    Performing Haymarket Sarah Kanouse1 Department of Cinema and Photography, Southern Illinois University Carbondale, Illinois USA Email: H U [email protected] H Abstract After over a century of official silence, the City of Chicago dedicated a new monument to the Haymarket Affair, one of the central events in the history of labor activism and radical politics worldwide, in 2004. The monument signaled a profound change in how divergent views on Haymarket are managed, and the monument’s iconography and inscription, as well as the media coverage surrounding it, emphasized themes of consensus and closure. Yet the new monument is not the only memorial to have been placed on the site, and in the past century a range of much more explicitly partisan commemorations have taken place there. This paper critically considers performative memorials inspired by anarchist observances but coming out of arts practice, with special attention given to the poetics and politics implied by this work. The author’s own memorial performance is discussed in detail; also addressed are works by Brian Dortmund, Kehben Grifter, and Michael Piazza. 1 © Sarah Kanouse, 2008; journal compilation © ACME Editorial Board, 2008 Performing Haymarket 70 The May Day 2006 demonstrations on behalf of immigrant rights were paired, on my campus, with a student demonstration against proposed tuition increases. In our small town, neither gathering attracted more than 200 people, but the sense of excitement the following day in my classroom of film students was palpable. I duly recounted the history of May Day, as I do each year to whomever will listen, and, despite the sense of accomplishment and hope that the previous day’s demonstration had given me, my students remained convinced that the idea of the general strike was one that could never happen here, not now.
