Wynne Claude Pepper and the Seeds of His 1950 Defeat, 1944-1948 by JAMES C. CLARK laude Pepper’s defeat in the 1950 Florida Democratic Sen- C atorial primary has long been seen as the result of a vicious campaign in which his opponents used underhanded methods to win. But while the 1950 campaign between Pepper and George Smathers was one of the nastiest in Florida history, the roots of Pep- per’s loss can be traced to 1945, when he began to feud with Presi- dent Harry Truman and began courting the political left. Those two activities so badly damaged his standing in Florida that he lost the large following which had sent him to the U.S. Senate in three previous elections. The 1950 election was hard fought, but no more so than sev- eral others, including Richard Nixon’s remarkably similar cam- paign in California and Senator Frank Graham’s loss in North Carolina. In both of those races, the winners successfully tied their opponents to various groups linked with communism. Smathers used the same technique, but Pepper had actually flirted with such organizations and had repeatedly praised Soviet leader Joseph Sta- lin. Pepper regarded himself as the political heir to President Franklin Roosevelt and near the end of World War II launched a campaign to position himself as a champion of world peace through closer relations with the Soviet Union. Had events turned out differently, his gamble might have propelled him into the pres- idency instead of to defeat in Florida. Before the United States entered World War II, Pepper spent nearly two years talking about military preparedness and the com- ing American involvement in the war. Although he was heavily crit- icized at the time, he turned out to be correct and became a national figure. As the war progressed, Pepper thought he could advance his political career by advancing the issue of world peace. Unfortunately, for Pepper, world events shattered his dream for Mr. Clark is a doctoral student in history, University of Florida. [1] 2 FLORIDA HISTORICAL QUARTERLY world peace. Instead of political advancement, Pepper endured five years of negative publicity that few politicians could have sur- vived. Just seven weeks after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, Pepper began to think about the postwar period. He wrote to his friend Raymond Robins, ". I am doing what I can to foster an ap- preciation of the necessity of some kind of a world governmental structure to be built upon the Post War wreckage.“1 In April 1942, Pepper submitted a resolution calling for the United States to join a world organization after the war.2 He believed the issue of world peace would increase his stand- ing in the Senate, where he had often been seen as a publicity seeker. He told former Senator Sherman Minton he had “a feeling that I have gained some influence in the Senate. There is no need concealing the fact that all of them have never thought that I was the greatest person in the world.“3 In the Senate, Pepper was one of Franklin Roosevelt’s most loyal supporters, always the first to rally to a Roosevelt idea and will- ing to lend his considerable oratorical skills to defend the Presi- dent on the Senate floor. Roosevelt’s death in 1945 was a severe blow to Pepper. The senator had come to believe that he was the logical heir to the Roosevelt political legacy and his relations with the new President, Harry Truman, were at best cool. Years later, Pepper told an interviewer, “I liked Harry Truman, but he was not someone to take seriously.“4 It was a major error on Pepper’s part to underestimate Truman. Within weeks of Roosevelt’s death, Pepper began to have reser- vations about Truman. At first, he wrote that Truman, ". has shown good judgement, good sense and good manners. He will not be a great President but I believe he will be a good President."5 But soon he became disillusioned. According to Henry Wallace, Pep- per “spoke at some little length about his disillusion about the way things were going. He seemed to think there was danger of the 1.

  • 30 Rock: Complexity, Metareferentiality and the Contemporary Quality Sitcom
    30 Rock: Complexity, Metareferentiality and the Contemporary Quality Sitcom Katrin Horn When the sitcom 30 Rock first aired in 2006 on NBC, the odds were against a renewal for a second season. Not only was it pitched against another new show with the same “behind the scenes”-idea, namely the drama series Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. 30 Rock’s often absurd storylines, obscure references, quick- witted dialogues, and fast-paced punch lines furthermore did not make for easy consumption, and thus the show failed to attract a sizeable amount of viewers. While Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip did not become an instant success either, it still did comparatively well in the Nielson ratings and had the additional advantage of being a drama series produced by a household name, Aaron Sorkin1 of The West Wing (NBC, 1999-2006) fame, at a time when high-quality prime-time drama shows were dominating fan and critical debates about TV. Still, in a rather surprising programming decision NBC cancelled the drama series, renewed the comedy instead and later incorporated 30 Rock into its Thursday night line-up2 called “Comedy Night Done Right.”3 Here the show has been aired between other single-camera-comedy shows which, like 30 Rock, 1 | Aaron Sorkin has aEntwurf short cameo in “Plan B” (S5E18), in which he meets Liz Lemon as they both apply for the same writing job: Liz: Do I know you?

Voulgaris A Thesis in the Field of History for the Degree of Master of Liberal Arts in Extension Studies Harvard University November 2016 © November 2016, Panos John Voulgaris Abstract The rhetoric and life of Muhammad Ali greatly influenced the advancement of African Americans. How did the words of Ali impact the development of black America in the twentieth century? What role does Ali hold in history? Ali was a supremely talented artist in the boxing ring, but he was also acutely aware of his cultural significance. The essential question that must be answered is how Ali went from being one of the most reviled people in white America to an icon of humanitarianism for all people. He sought knowledge through personal experience and human interaction and was profoundly influenced by his own upbringing in the throes of Louisville’s Jim Crow segregation.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Cubans and the Caribbean South: Race, Labor, and Cuban Identity in Southern Florida, 1868-1928 A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in History by Andrew Gomez 2015 © Copyright by Andrew Gomez 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Cubans and the Caribbean South: Race, Labor, and Cuban Identity in Southern Florida, 1868- 1928 by Andrew Gomez Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Los Angeles, 2015 Professor Frank Tobias Higbie, Chair This dissertation looks at the Cuban cigar making communities of Key West and Ybor City (in present-day Tampa) from 1868 to 1928. During this period, both cities represented two of largest Cuban exile centers and played critical roles in the Cuban independence movement and the Clear Havana cigar industry. I am charting how these communities wrestled with race, labor politics, and their own Cuban identity. Broadly speaking, my project makes contributions to the literature on Cuban history, Latino history, and transnational studies. My narrative is broken into two chronological periods. The earlier period (1868-1898) looks at Southern Florida and Cuba as a permeable region where ideas, people, and goods flowed freely. I am showing how Southern Florida was constructed as an extension of Cuba and that workers were part of broader networks tied to Cuban nationalism and Caribbean radicalism. Borne out of Cuba’s independence struggles, both communities created a political and literary atmosphere that argued for an egalitarian view of a new republic. Concurrently, workers began to ii experiment with labor organizing. Cigar workers at first tried to reconcile the concepts of nationalism and working-class institutions, but there was considerable friction between the two ideas.

It aims to provide an explanation of the relationship between boxing, its embodied practices and local routine performance and the economic culture which makes it possible and drives the sport along particular trajectories. This chapter starts with the dialogue between the economic demands of globalized sport and the links between the economic context and local practices and investments in the sport. The media are a focus in this chapter because of their powerful involvement in the making of the cultural economy of boxing. The chapter uses examples of the representation of boxing and the making of its celebrities and heroes in shaping its cultural economy as well as the particularities of boxing and its capacities for change, for example through its localized practices and the continuance of amateur boxing. The chapter offers a discussion of some of the capacities boxing has for attracting illegitimate as well as legitimate finance and the complicated intersection of personal and local commitments and the forces of global capital.

  • An Obligation to Do One's Best by Dana Smessaert May 2020
    An Obligation to do One’s Best by Dana Smessaert May 2020 Director of Thesis: Angela Wells Major Department: School of Art and Design An Obligation to do One's Best is an exploration of myth and reality at home in a small southern town. The artist is calling into question whose history we are referencing when it comes to art, economics, and culture. In these liminal landscapes, the viewer/spectator becomes a collaborator in the mythos of racism in the Southern narrative—the denial of not only its racist past but also the strides of the Civil Rights protests. The research explores the agency of history and cultural capital through a site-specific installation with images, video, sculpture, and sound. Creating a liminal landscape of the American South through physical and metaphysical readings of its trauma, history, and understanding the “...south as a noun that behaves like a verb.”1 The South is entwined with history, politics, economics, and racism, a link that can never be severed, this paper consorts with classic literature, history, cinema, demographics, and philosophy. The American South, the house, the name, and the family's history are complicated and seemingly transparent to those on the outside. However, the stories of those who live here still exist in the space between myth and reality. 1 Romine, Scott. The Real South: Southern Narrative in the Age of Cultural Reproduction.

  • The Florida Terror: Race Relations in the Early Twentieth-Century
    The Florida Terror: Race Relations in the Early Twentieth-Century Summary Many years before the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950’s and 1960’s brought nationwide attention to the plight of African-Americans in the South, racial violence was a fact of life. Many whites held firm to an unwritten code that demanded brutal punishment for individual blacks, or entire communities, that “stepped out of line.” In this lesson, students will: read about race relations in the post-WWI years and the Ku Klux Klan; explore individual incidents of racial violence in Florida before the Civil Rights era; and create annotated maps/timelines of these incidents. Objectives Students will: 1) Understand how demographic changes after World War I led to strained relations between whites and blacks in the North and the South; 2) Read an account of the origins and reformation of the Ku Klux Klan, from the early 1900’s to the present; 3) Explore five incidents of racial violence from 1920 to 1944. U.S. History Event This lesson could be used within the context of any unit on the 1920’s, including racial unrest in the post-WWI years and the nativism movement. It could also be used as am opening lesson to the Civil Rights Movement. Grade Level This lesson can be implemented in a middle school or high school American history classroom, but because of the sensitive subject matter may be more appropriate for high school. Materials AAA AutoClub maps of Florida (optional), maps of Florida found at http://fcit.usf.edu/florida/maps/state/64000.htm (optional), a transparency of the lyrics to “Strange Fruit,” a transparency or copies of one of several pictures from http://www.liu.edu/cwis/cwp/library/african/2000/lynching.htm , one copy of Reading Passage #1 and Reading Passage #2 for each pair, one copy of Exhibits A-E for each pair, one copy of “Matrix for Information about Florida Racial Violence” for each student (or pair), Lesson Time This lesson can be completed in one block period.

My uncle, being a father, was my intro to boxing and boxing books. I was first exposed to Muhammad Ali as a young child watching some old bands in my uncle's house. I remember thinking how he could be the greatest when he lost so many times. Of course, the undefeated champion beats several times champion every day of the week. I remember watching Ali light the Olympic flame in Atlanta as a 12-year-old and wondering why this guy was a hero, why he loved so much. Then I read The King of the World: The Rise of Muhammad Ali and the American Hero (1998) by David Remnick. Its been more than 15 years since I read this book, shortly after it was first published. As anyone who has read any Remnick will know, they are written with a style and imagination that describes all their work. It's a great book.

  • African American Women's Resistance in the Aftermath
    AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMEN’S RESISTANCE IN THE AFTERMATH OF LYNCHING by LACEY A. BROWN-BERNAL THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History at The University of Texas at Arlington December 2019 Arlington, Texas Supervising Committee: Stephanie Cole, Supervising Professor Delaina Price Christopher Morris ABSTRACT AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMEN’S RESISTANCE IN THE AFTERMATH OF LYNCHING Lacey A. Brown-Bernal, M.A. History The University of Texas at Arlington, 2019 Supervising Professor: Stephanie Cole This thesis focuses on resistance strategies used by African American women in the aftermath of lynching in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It examines the ways in which those strategies were shared, modified, and deployed by black women activists throughout the Jim Crow Era and traces the connection to contemporary movements for social justice. The starting point for this study of generational change within African American women’s resistance to violence is the transatlantic anti-lynching campaign of Ida B. Wells and an examination of newspaper articles that detailed her actions while abroad with an eye to considering how her approach shaped the reception of her message. Also included in this work is a case study that examines the life of one woman and her family in the aftermath of lynching in order to understand the extent to which that event shaped their lives in the immediate aftermath and as they moved forward. As a result, the importance of family, church, and community to some survivors of racial violence is illuminated. A broader look at the actions of multiple women between 1892-1955 shows that black women in the aftermath of lynching manipulated the gendered language surrounding the ideology of male breadwinners to file civil cases when a male family member was lynched, adding to a collective knowledge of resistance strategies across generations.
