Short sections of text, not to exceed two paragraphs, may be quoted without explicit permission provided that full credit, including © notice, is given to the source. Off we go into the wild blue yonder, Climbing high into the sun Introduction Of the several large and important domestic housing and urban programs produced by Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society administration, the best-known is Model Cities. Although it lasted only from 1966 to 1974, its advocates believed Model Cities had promised a better tomorrow for America’s cities and bitterly lamented its termination—blaming Richard Nixon’s policies, diversion of funds for the Vietnam war, and the nation’s lack of commitment to social progress. Yet the legislation that created Model Cities was ambitious, contradictory, and vague. As such, it vividly expressed the idealistic impulses, currents of thought, and reactions to events that converged, however incoherently, in national urban policy of the 1960s. At the center of the fervor for domestic policy was the president of the United States, Lyndon Johnson, who hungered for dramatic new programs that would transform the country the way New Deal policies had reshaped America in his youth.

Walzer The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2017 Under the Supervision of Professor Rachel Buff This dissertation examines the importance of white ethnicity, and especially Germanness, in the “civic branding” and urban restructuring efforts of city officials, civic boosters, and business leaders in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in the mid-to-late twentieth century. Scholars have increasingly identified the significant roles the “revival” of European ethnic identities played in maintaining white racial privilege in response to the Civil Rights Movement since the 1960s.

    e.polis Volume V, Fall/Winter 2012 1 The Saga of a Landslide Reelection, Baby Bonds, and a Recall: Mayor Daniel W. Hoan 1932-1933 Scott R. Letteney e.polis Volume V, Fall/Winter 2012 2 INTRODUCTION In April 1933, rumors of an impending effort to recall the mayor of Milwaukee spread around Milwaukee City Hall.1 While the purported motivations driving the nascent attempt to unseat Mayor Daniel W. Hoan included his inability to push a change to the City tax code through the Common Council, deteriorating conditions in City Hall, and pressure from local taxpayer organizations, the real problem may have been the depths in which Milwaukee found itself during the Great Depression. According to a letter sent to him by the Fifteenth Ward Taxpayers’ Club, during the depression Mayor Hoan failed to show “any leadership that would tend to lessen the burden of the hard-pressed citizens of Milwaukee.”2 Daniel Webster Hoan was elected mayor of the City of Milwaukee in 1916 after having served as Milwaukee’s City Attorney for six years. Hoan was born in Waukesha, Wisconsin, and educated at the University of Wisconsin and the Kent College of Law. He was admitted to practice law in Wisconsin in 1907. He served as a labor attorney until he was elected Milwaukee City Attorney in 1910.3 Hoan had been elected City Attorney, as part of a veritable sweep of the election by members of the Socialist Party, with Emil Seidel at the head of the ticket. Seidel was the first of three Socialist mayors that would serve the City of Milwaukee over the next half- century.

As sun clears the horizon, camera slows to real time and pulls back to show the urban lakefront. Host starts talking and walks into the frame. It starts here, of course, where the lake meets the land. Our story dawns beside one of the largest bodies of fresh water on earth. Today Lake Michigan is weather and drinking water, a place to fish and a place to sail, but it’s much more than that. Lake Michigan is why Milwaukee’s here. It was on this shore of an inland sea, where a deep river enters a broad bay, that a city was born. Pan north across bay to downtown and hold. Wave sounds continue. It would be a city known for beer and bubblers, for smokestacks and steeples, for Socialist mayors and major industries. But that’s not how Milwaukee began. Wave sounds up. Indian drumbeats begin. As each wave breaks, a layer of urban features is washed away, and the scene morphs to an early-morning view of a broad beach bordered by forest in deep winter.

My dissertation investigates the response of Milwaukee’s white urban Protestant churches to the Second Great Migration, which led to tremendous growth in the city’s African American population. The difficulty caused by many white members living in the suburbs while still attending church in racially transitioning city neighborhoods was compounded in some cases by the negative influence exerted by denominational history and polity. While those realities were often far more significant than theology in determining how individual congregations reacted to the first instances of racial diversity in their midst, churches that viewed demographic transition solely as a spiritual opportunity were the ones able to successfully become integrated congregations.
