    YOUNGSTOWN STATE UNIVERSITY ORAL HISTORY PROGRAM The Depression INTERVIEWEE: JOHN MANNING INTERVIEWER: Cynthia Marsh SUBJECT: The Depression DATE: November 27, 1995 CM: This is an interview with Mr. John Manning for the Youngstown State University Oral History Department. By Cynthia Marsh at 2509 Cardinal Drive, Youngstown, Ohio on November 27 at approximately 1:25 pm. CM: Mr. Manning could you please tell me a little bit about your family and where you grew up? JM: I grew up, well I was born and raised on Kensington Avenue, 1440 Kensington Avenue, and it was four houses from McKinley School. There were seven children in our family, but two died young. They died during the flu epidemic. My dad and mother were born in Ireland. I couldn’t understand why they made it so tough during the Depression; it didn’t seem to bother them. Then when I would visit Ireland and see the conditions that they were used to, living in America was a picnic compared to what they had. They had all outside toilets, for some reason, no running water and a dirt floor. The conditions that they were used to compared to what we had in America was like a picnic and that is why it didn’t seem to bother them. My dad was out of work for four and a half years during the Depression. They had the soup kitchens down in old St. Columba Hall and even though anybody could go down there, all they had to do was bring a pail down to the hall and they would give you a great big pail of vegetable, hot vegetable soup.

  • During 1977-1979, Three of the Largest Steel Mills in the Youngstown, Ohio Area V
    During 1977-1979, three of the largest steel mills in the Youngstown, Ohio area v. ere shut down, eliminating over 10,000 primary jobs. Historian/labor attorney Staughton Lynd documents the efforts of the community, employees, and local unions to reopen the first mill and to prevent the closing of the remaining two. ' The Fight Against Shutdowns not only describes what happened, but defines the problems and outlines possible community strategy for the future. During my coverage of the plant shutdowns in Youngstown, I became convinced that there was a larger story to be told of how our economic system does not concern itself with social costs. Staughton Lynd’s book tells a large part of that story. " —Ao|s SALPUKAS, New York Times This book is instant history in the best sense of the term. Staughton Lynd writes with the passion and insight of one who was in the thick of the battle against the closing of Youngstown’s steel mills. But, as a historian and lawyer, he writes also with a keen eye for the facts and for reasoned argument. No book better catches what American workers are up against when corporate employers decide to shut up shop and move out. No book is better calculated to set the reader thinking about why our business system is so callous to the human costs of its profit-maximizing decisions, or the labor movement so laggard in rising to the defense Jf the victims of re-industrialization. If we are to do better in the future than we have in the past, it will be in part because we have been informed by committed writers like Staughton Lynd.

  • African-American Experience Youngstown(Pdf)
    African-American Experience in Youngstown 1940-1965 By Michael A. Beverly Master ofArts History Youngstown State University August 2002 African-American Experience in Youngstown 1940-1965 Michael A. Beverly I hereby release this thesis to the public. I understand that this thesis will be made available from the OhioLINK ETD Center and the Maag Library Circulation Desk for public access. I also authorize the University or other individuals to make copies of this thesis as needed for scholarly research. Signature: Approvals: ·~tM ().tJ(l~ dvisor Date Donna M. DeBlasio, Committee Member 2t!:IP2­ Date Abstract The twentieth century has seen many changes in American society. The United States has gone from a predominately rural society to a predominately urban society. The city ofYoungstown, Ohio, was a part ofthis population shift, and by 1930, the population reached 170,000, while a decade later inl940 the population decreased slightly to 167,720. With the onset ofWorld War II, Youngstown's steel industry needed many unskilled workers, which helped to bring about the last major wave ofmigration into the Mahoning Valley. One of the largest groups ofpeople who came to Youngstown during the 1940s and 1950s was African-Americans from the South. The purpose ofthis study is to determine whether African-Americans, especially the migrants, were able to build a viable community in Youngstown, how well they handled the effects of segregation and discrimination in the city, and how the city ofYoungstown compared to other cities in the North in their treatment ofAfrican-Americans. There are many aspects of the African-American community that must be considered when doing a study such as this.
