Warrior Writers Program Receives Geske Award Veterans Writing Workshop Recognized for Contribution to Literacy Pgs 2-3 IDEAS IN PROGRESS RAPPORT ISSUE 21 | WINTER 2019 WARRIOR WRITERS PROGRAM RECEIVES GESKE AWARD VETERANS WRITING WORKSHOP RECOGNIZED FOR CONTRIBUTION TO LITERACY PGS 2-3 The Healing Wall (excerpt) by Andy Gueck The family who searches the Wall to find a name, to put closure to the hole torn within their hearts every parent hopes that the telegram was wrong, That the name they seek is not there. As they reach the year, the day, the line, they find the name they so hoped was not there. Tears stream down her cheeks, weathered with age and sorrow, his eyes lose some of their luster in knowing the truth. The child seeking someone who was never there, touches a name, takes a shading, but receives no answers. Visitors to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington D.C. search for the names of loved ones and frequently copy the inscription as a memento.

  • Introduction to the American Civil Rights Movement
    Introduction to the American Civil Rights Movement By Mikhaela Barnes With special help from Connor McNellis Impact of the Civil War, Reconstruction and Jim Crow Laws The Beginnings of Slavery ❖ Slavery was introduced to the new colonies within the U.S. in 1619 in order to aid the settlers in the production of crops. ❖ The practice of slavery bled into the 17th and 18th century. Throughout this period of time, slaves become a huge factor of economic success for agriculture. ❖ In 1793 the creation of Eli Whitney’s cotton gin solidified the need for slaves throughout the country. ❖ Westward expansion became a huge ordeal within the 17th century, and along with it, the question as to whether or not slavery was immoral came along with it. ❖ The disagreement was over the issue of states rights and slavery. A number of states, mainly in the south, used agriculture as a main source of income. As a result, many of the states these states relied on slaves to work their land, and saw their abolition as the The Civil War government unlawfully taking their property ❖ Within this war, a total of 620,000 men, both Union and Confederate, gave their lives in this war. The Civil War was an internal conflict that lasted from 1861 to 1865. ❖ On May 9th, 1865 the Civil War was over and the abolition of slavery was spread throughout all states. Reconstruction: Results of the Civil War ❖ For the 12 years after the civil war (1865-1887) the union army controlled the south using martial law. ❖ This controlled environment eased the transition in the south by controlling terrorist groups such as the KKK and White Man’s League.

  • Black Horror on the Rhine”: Idealism, Pacifism, and Racism in Feminism and the Left in the Aftermath of the First World War
    “Black Horror on the Rhine”: Idealism, Pacifism, and Racism in Feminism and the Left in the Aftermath of the First World War PETER CAMPBELL* In the aftermath of the First World War, a storm of protest met the stationing of colonial African troops in the occupied German territories. The campaign, spearheaded by legendary Congo reformer Edmund Dene Morel, influenced a broad spectrum of leftists, feminists, anti-imperialists, and pacifists in Great Britain, the United States, and Canada. In the United States and Canada the mainstream labour movement—the American Federation of Labor in the United States and its Canadian affiliate the Trades and Labour Congress—generally did not respond to Morel’s appeal. In contrast, idealistic leftists, feminists, anti- imperialists, and peace activists—men and women most committed to the creation of a world without war, racial prejudice, and gender inequality—took up Morel’s anti-imperialist and blatantly racist campaign. This article seeks to explain how this seeming contradiction came to be. Dans la foulée de la Première Guerre mondiale, une tempête de protestations s’est élevée contre le stationnement de troupes coloniales africaines dans les territoires allemands occupés. La campagne, dirigée par Edmund Dene Morel, légendaire réformateur du Congo, a influencé un large éventail de gauchistes, de féministes, d’anti-impérialistes et de pacifistes en Grande-Bretagne, aux États-Unis et au Canada. Aux États-Unis et au Canada, les courants principaux du mouvement syndical – la fédération américaine du travail et son affilié canadien le Congrès des métiers et du travail – n’ont de façon générale pas répondu à l’appel de Morel.
