Lindbergh, the Minnesota boy who made the first nonstop flight across the Atlantic, landed at Le Bourget airfield outside Paris on May 21, 1927. "Lucky Lindy" became an instant world hero, but he also forged an important emotional link between France and the United States by his flight from New York to Paris. A tew days after this book on the contribu- tions of the French to this area comes off the press, the 60th anniversary of Lindbergh's flight will be celebrated in Paris. A program of activities has been organized by the Charles A. Lindbergh Fund for the week of May 18, 1987. The Fund is headquartered in Minneapolis. Lindbergh's boyhood home and the Lindbergh 4 Museum are located in his hometown of Little Falls, Minnesota. The Advisory Board of the International Language Villages will participate in the commemorative activities in France. For these reasonsbecause the celebration coincides with the publication of this volume and because a special link between France and the United States resulted from the feat of a , e young Minnesota barnstorming pilot just 60 Charles A.

  • Retitling, Cultural Appropriation, and Aboriginal Title
    1 Retitling, Cultural Appropriation, and Aboriginal Title by Michel-Antoine Xhignesse Capilano University [email protected] This is a penultimate draft. Please cite the final version: Xhignesse, Michel-Antoine (2021). Retitling, Cultural Appropriation, and Aboriginal Title. British Journal of Aesthetics 61 (3) :317-333. Abstract: In 2018, the Art Gallery of Ontario retitled a painting by Emily Carr which contained an offensive word. Controversy ensued, with some arguing that unsanctioned changes to a work’s title infringe upon artists’ moral and free speech rights. Others argued that such a change serves to whitewash legacies of racism and cultural genocide. In this paper, I show that these concerns are unfounded. The first concern is not supported by law or the history of our titling practices; and the second concern misses the mark by ignoring the gallery’s substantial efforts to avoid just such an outcome. Picking up on a suggestion from Loretta Todd, I argue that we can use Aboriginal Title as a model for thinking about the harms perpetuated by cultural appropriation, and the practices we should adopt to mitigate them. 2 Retitling, Cultural Appropriation, and Aboriginal Title 1. Introduction In 2018, the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) retitled a painting by Emily Carr: formerly known as The Indian Church (1929), it is now called Church at Yuquot Village.1 The move sparked controversy nationwide: some worried that changing a work’s artist-given title changes its associated work, and that such unsanctioned changes to a work infringe upon artists’ moral rights; others worried that the change papered over Canada’s shameful history of Indigenous-Crown (and -settler) relations, including the state’s legacy of cultural genocide.

  • Indigenous Languages
    INDIGENOUS LANGUAGES PRE-TEACH/PRE-ACTIVITY Have students look at the Indigenous languages and/or language groups that are displayed on the map. Discuss where this data came from (the 2016 census) and what biases or problems this data may have, such as the fear of self-identifying based on historical reasons or current gaps in data. Take some time to look at how censuses are performed, who participates in them, and what they can learn from the data that is and is not collected. Refer to the online and poster map of Indigenous Languages in Canada featured in the 2017 November/December issue of Canadian Geographic, and explore how students feel about the number of speakers each language has and what the current data means for the people who speak each language. Additionally, look at the language families listed and the names of each language used by the federal government in collecting this data. Discuss with students why these may not be the correct names and how they can help in the reconciliation process by using the correct language names. LEARNING OUTCOMES: • Students will learn about the number and • Students will learn about the importance of diversity of languages and language groups language and the ties it has to culture. spoken by Indigenous Peoples in Canada. • Students will become engaged in learning a • Students will learn that Indigenous Peoples local Indigenous language. in Canada speak many languages and that some languages are endangered.

  • History of Baillytown and Swedish Settlement
    REDISCOVERING A SWEDISH ETHNIC PAST: - THE NATIONAL PARK SERVICE AND BAILLYTOWN, INDIANA* DAVID MCMAHON The Carlsons, Samuelsons, Johnsons and Petersons, whose names abound in atlases and platbooks from 1876 to the 1970s, are of Swedish descent. The area around the Bailly homestead became a busy Scandinavian agricultural settlement. Sarah Gibbard and Robert S. Jackson, 1978 Baillytown: An Overview Around 1850 Swedes began to settle parts of Westchester Township, Porter County, Indiana, near the sand dunes along the shores of Lake Michigan. This rural settlement was known to Swedish-Americans as Baillytown; it became the nucleus of an expanding ethnic community that later included the Swedish immigrants who settled in Chesterton and Porter, Indiana.1 The Swedes established denominational churches and societies that maintained their ethnicity well into the 1920s. They expressed love for their homeland at picnics and celebrations that mixed Swedish and American themes. Swedes, furthermore, contributed to the social and economic history of the area as farmers, railroad workers, common laborers, and prominent citizens. At its founding, Baillytown was intimately linked with the development of nearby Chicago, where the largest Swedish-American community in the nation developed. Baillytown did not have ethnic institutions as highly developed as "Swede Town" in Chicago, but its proximity to that metropolis kept it connected to Swedish-American cultural life, especially as existed around the turn of the century.2 Baillytown's close association with the Augustana Synod enabled it to maintain its Swedishness and resist overt Americanization. Baillytown's first church was founded by early organizers of the synod from Chicago, and it was the birthplace of Gustav Albert 26 Andreen, later president of Augustana College and Theological Seminary at Rock Island, Illinois.3 In the 1960s and 1970s, Baillytown was once again active as an ethnic community after years of seeming quiescence, as former residents began to restore old landmarks and preserve their heritage.

  • Society in Colonial Latin America with the Exception of Some Early Viceroys, Few Members of Spain’S Nobility Came to the New World
    Spanish America and Brazil 475 Within Spanish America, the mining centers of Mexico and Peru eventually exercised global economic influence. American silver increased the European money supply, promoting com- mercial expansion and, later, industrialization. Large amounts of silver also flowed to Asia. Both Europe and the Iberian colonies of Latin America ran chronic trade deficits with Asia. As a result, massive amounts of Peruvian and Mexican silver flowed to Asia via Middle Eastern middlemen or across the Pacific to the Spanish colony of the Philippines, where it paid for Asian spices, silks, and pottery. The rich mines of Peru, Bolivia, and Mexico stimulated urban population growth as well as commercial links with distant agricultural and textile producers. The population of the city of Potosí, high in the Andes, reached 120,000 inhabitants by 1625. This rich mining town became the center of a vast regional market that depended on Chilean wheat, Argentine livestock, and Ecuadorian textiles. The sugar plantations of Brazil played a similar role in integrating the economy of the south Atlantic region. Brazil exchanged sugar, tobacco, and reexported slaves for yerba (Paraguayan tea), hides, livestock, and silver produced in neighboring Spanish colonies. Portugal’s increasing openness to British trade also allowed Brazil to become a conduit for an illegal trade between Spanish colonies and Europe. At the end of the seventeenth century, the discovery of gold in Brazil promoted further regional and international economic integration. Society in Colonial Latin America With the exception of some early viceroys, few members of Spain’s nobility came to the New World.

  • Neo-European Worlds
    Garner: Europeans in Neo-European Worlds 35 EUROPEANS IN NEO-EUROPEAN WORLDS: THE AMERICAS IN WORLD HISTORY by Lydia Garner In studies of World history the experience of the first colonial powers in the Americas (Spain, Portugal, England, and france) and the processes of creating neo-European worlds in the new environ- ment is a topic that has received little attention. Matters related to race, religion, culture, language, and, since of the middle of the last century of economic progress, have divided the historiography of the Americas along the lines of Anglo-Saxon vs. Iberian civilizations to the point where the integration of the Americas into World history seems destined to follow the same lines. But in the broader perspec- tive of World history, the Americas of the early centuries can also be analyzed as the repository of Western Civilization as expressed by its constituent parts, the Anglo-Saxon and the Iberian. When transplanted to the environment of the Americas those parts had to undergo processes of adaptation to create a neo-European world, a process that extended into the post-colonial period. European institu- tions adapted to function in the context of local socio/economic and historical realities, and in the process they created apparently similar European institutions that in reality became different from those in the mother countries, and thus were neo-European. To explore their experience in the Americas is essential for the integration of the history of the Americas into World history for comparative studies with the European experience in other regions of the world and for the introduction of a new perspective on the history of the Americas.
