Some of the mostly White demonstrators — both in the nation’s capital and at other pro-Trump events across the U.S. — carried large wooden crosses. “I wanted to be here because I feel like the Democrats are slapping our Creator in the face: God Almighty,” said Diane McMichael, an evangelical Christian from California. “We are certainly founded on ‘one nation under God,’” said her husband, Bob. “Our roots were there, and we’ve See NATIONALISM, Page 8 NEW CONGRESSMAN — a church member and former Trump physician — witnesses attack.

  • Report on the History of Matthew P. Deady and Frederick S. Dunn
    Report on the History of Matthew P. Deady and Frederick S. Dunn By David Alan Johnson Professor, Portland State University former Managing Editor (1997-2014), Pacific Historical Review Quintard Taylor Emeritus Professor and Scott and Dorothy Bullitt Professor of American History. University of Washington Marsha Weisiger Julie and Rocky Dixon Chair of U.S. Western History, University of Oregon In the 2015-16 academic year, students and faculty called for renaming Deady Hall and Dunn Hall, due to the association of Matthew P. Deady and Frederick S. Dunn with the infamous history of race relations in Oregon in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. President Michael Schill initially appointed a committee of administrators, faculty, and students to develop criteria for evaluating whether either of the names should be stripped from campus buildings. Once the criteria were established, President Schill assembled a panel of three historians to research the history of Deady and Dunn to guide his decision-making. The committee consists of David Alan Johnson, the foremost authority on the history of the Oregon Constitutional Convention and author of Founding the Far West: California, Oregon, Nevada, 1840-1890 (1992); Quintard Taylor, the leading historian of African Americans in the U.S. West and author of several books, including In Search of the Racial Frontier: African Americans in the American West, 1528-1990 (1998); and Marsha Weisiger, author of several books, including Dreaming of Sheep in Navajo Country (2009). Other historians have written about Matthew Deady and Frederick Dunn; although we were familiar with them, we began our work looking at the primary sources—that is, the historical record produced by Deady, Dunn, and their contemporaries.

    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF M. Susan Van Laere for the degreeof Master of Arts in Applied Anthropologypresented on March 6, 2000. Title: The Grizzly Bear andthe Deer: The History of Federal Indian Policy and Its Impacton the Coast Reservation Tribes of Oregon, 1856-1877. Abstract Approved Redacted for privacy David R. Brauner The Coast Reservation of Oregonwas established under Executive Order of President Franklin Pierce in November,1855, as a homeland for the southern Oregon tribes. It was an immense, isolatedwilderness, parts of which had burned earlier inthe century. There were some prairies where farmingwas possible, but because the reservation system itself and farming,particularly along the coast,were unknown entities, life for the Indianswas a misery for years. Those responsible for the establishmentof the reservation were subject to the vagaries of the weather, the wilderness,the Congress, and the Office of Indian Affairs. Agents were accountable, not only forthe lives of Oregon Indians, but also for allof the minute details involved in answeringto a governmental agency. Some of the agentswere experienced with the tribes ofwestern Oregon; others were not. All of them believedthat the only way to keep the Indiansfrom dying out was to teach them theEuropean American version of agriculturalism.Eventually, if possible, Oregon Indians would be assimilated into the dominant culture. Mostagents held out little hope for the adults of the tribes. This thesis lays out the background for thedevelopment of United States Indian policies. European Americans' etimocentricideas about what constituted civilization became inextricablywoven into those policies. Those policies were brought in their infant stage to Oregon.

  • Chapter Twenty-Five “This Damned Old House” the Lincoln Family In
    Chapter Twenty-five “This Damned Old House” The Lincoln Family in the Executive Mansion During the Civil War, the atmosphere in the White House was usually sober, for as John Hay recalled, it “was an epoch, if not of gloom, at least of a seriousness too intense to leave room for much mirth.”1 The death of Lincoln’s favorite son and the misbehavior of the First Lady significantly intensified that mood. THE WHITE HOUSE The White House failed to impress Lincoln’s other secretaries, who disparaged its “threadbare appearance” and referred to it as “a dirty rickety concern.”2 A British journalist thought it beautiful in the moonlight, “when its snowy walls stand out in contrast to the night, deep blue skies, but not otherwise.”3 The Rev. Dr. Theodore L. Cuyler asserted that the “shockingly careless appearance of the White House proved that whatever may have been Mrs. Lincoln’s other good qualities, she hadn’t earned the compliment which the Yankee farmer paid to his wife when he said: ‘Ef my wife haint got an ear fer music, she’s got an eye for dirt.’”4 The north side of the Executive 1 John Hay, “Life in the White House in the Time of Lincoln,” in Michael Burlingame, ed., At Lincoln’s Side: John Hay’s Civil War Correspondence and Selected Writings (Carbondale: Southern Illinois University Press, 2000), 134. 2 William O.
