APRIL 10 – 13 | HILTON ATLANTA • 1 We l c o m e Welcome to the 105th Annual Meeting of the Organization of American Historians! Meeting themes are rarely “ripped from the headlines” as if they were scripts from television’s Law and Order. However, the heated national debate over comprehensive immigration reform calls attention to American history’s perennial themes: the peopling of the United States and the great vitality derived from the diversity of the American population. “Crossing Borders,” then, seemed the appropriate choice to be the thematic focus of this year’s meeting.

  • The Fourth Awakening.Pdf
    Praise for The Fourth Awakening, from people just like you! WOW!! What a page turner! I received the manuscript for Th e Fourth Awakening via email late in the evening. I printed the fi rst fi ft y pages, fi guring that was all I could read before I fell asleep. But the 50th page ended with them in the car and Walker saying “We really have to go.” and Spence asking “Why?” I tossed and turned for 20 minutes making up all sorts of scenarios of why they needed to go right now. Th en I decided to heck with it and got up and to read the rest. I was glued to the screen until I fi nished the very last word at 9AM. You CANNOT release this book to an unsuspecting public without two things: A) A warning sign such as: CAUTION, once opened, this book cannot be closed until the last word is read. Reading this book will bring about great change in your life, whether you are ready or not. … And…MOST IMPORTANT B) A list of resources where people can get help to get back on track when knocked off by what they read, because there’s no way not to be aff ected by this information! For the past several years, I have had moments of intense clarity when the fog cleared away and I could see clearly, then the fog moved back in. I continue to search for ways to have that clarity for longer periods of time. Are you teaching the methods that Michael Walker would use to have that level of awareness? I want in! – Sybil Temple, Louisville, KY A very unusual concept..

  • The Clash and Mass Media Messages from the Only Band That Matters
    THE CLASH AND MASS MEDIA MESSAGES FROM THE ONLY BAND THAT MATTERS Sean Xavier Ahern A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2012 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Kristen Rudisill © 2012 Sean Xavier Ahern All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor This thesis analyzes the music of the British punk rock band The Clash through the use of media imagery in popular music in an effort to inform listeners of contemporary news items. I propose to look at the punk rock band The Clash not solely as a first wave English punk rock band but rather as a “news-giving” group as presented during their interview on the Tom Snyder show in 1981. I argue that the band’s use of communication metaphors and imagery in their songs and album art helped to communicate with their audience in a way that their contemporaries were unable to. Broken down into four chapters, I look at each of the major releases by the band in chronological order as they progressed from a London punk band to a globally known popular rock act. Viewing The Clash as a “news giving” punk rock band that inundated their lyrics, music videos and live performances with communication images, The Clash used their position as a popular act to inform their audience, asking them to question their surroundings and “know your rights.” iv For Pat and Zach Ahern Go Easy, Step Lightly, Stay Free. v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This thesis would not have been possible without the help of many, many people.

  • Civil War to Civil Rights Commemoration
    National Park Service U.S Department of the Interior Washington Support Office: Cultural Resources, Partnerships and Science Interpretation, Education and Volunteers Civil War to Civil Rights Commemoration Summary Report DEDICATION This report honors all those who suffered and died in this nation’s struggles for freedom and equality. It is also dedicated to our colleague, Tim Sinclair, who was taken from us too soon. Timothy D. Sinclair, Sr. (1974-2016) Chief of Interpretation Selma to Montgomery NHT Tuskegee Airmen NHS and Tuskegee Institute NHS You took us on a walk from Selma to Montgomery. To keep your vision and memory alive, “We’re still marching!” Silent sentinels stood watch for 22 hours to commemorate the 22 hours of combat that took place at Spotsylvania’s Bloody Angle. FREDERICKSBURG AND SPOTSYLVANIA NMP Cover Graphic: Courtesy of Chris Barr FOREWORD The Civil War to Civil Rights Commemoration has been quite a journey. Thanks to all of you who helped make it a meaningful and memorable one for our country. We hope our efforts have helped Americans understand the connection between these two epic periods of time as a continuous march toward freedom and equality for all–a march that continues still today. Along the way, perhaps the National Park Service learned something about itself, as well. When we first began planning for this commemorative journey, there were several Civil War parks that had difficultly acknowledging slavery as the cause of the war. Both Civil War sites and civil rights sites questioned whether a combined “Civil War to Civil Rights” Commemoration would water down and weaken each.

    An Internship with Kirvin Doak Communications A Capstone internship submitted to Southern Utah University in fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Masters of Art in Professional Communication December 2016 Ana Ramirez Capstone Chair Jon Smith, PhD Approval Page An Internship with Kirvin Doak Communications I certify that I have read this internship thesis and that, in our opinion, it is satisfactory in scope and quality as an internship for the degree of Masters of Professional Communication. Jon Smith, PhD ACKNOWLEDGMENTS 2 An Internship with Kirvin Doak Communications I would like to thank my parents for their ongoing motivation to help me excel in not only in my education but also throughout life. Being the first generation student I never imagined attaining my master's degree, but here I am, thanks to you. Thank you for bringing me lunch when I was in elementary school, rides to the airport for undergrad sorority conferences, having patience with me when I was stressed about graduation, and most importantly for loving me unconditionally. I want to thank my gladiators (you know who you are) who reminded me as to why I was perusing this degree when all I wanted to do was give up. Helping me take notes, ask a question in class for me when I didn't understand a concept, bringing me an endless amount of coffee to ease the writing process and truly believing that I am going to be successful in the near future. And finally, I would like to thank my professors that I have had at Southern Utah University.
