  • Musical Life in Boston in the Eighteenth Century
    1939.] Musical Life in Boston 293 MUSICAL LIFE IN BOSTON IN THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY BY HENRY WILDER FOOTE TT WAS a cynic who said that "history is a lie •*- agreed upon," but his cynicism was not without justification. There are innumerable illustrations of the way in which a popular myth, first set afloat either to glorify or to discredit an individual, a group, or a cause, has been unquestioningly accepted as sober fact by credulous or lazy historians, and transmitted with heightened colors and swelling distortions through generations to come. That is the excuse for the "debunking" of history in vogue in recent years. It was used chiefiy to uncover the human limitations of popular idols, and sometimes has gone so far as to strip them of well-nigh every shred of decency and honor. It has less often been applied to the rehabilita- tion of persons or groups who have been the victims of malicious disparagement. In the last three-quarters of a century few groups have suffered so much in reputation from "lies agreed upon" as the Puritans who settled in New England. This is true of a,lmost every aspect of their lives, not least in regard to their cultural standards. Thus, in the face of the documentary evidence afforded by some two hundred portraits which were painted in New England before Copley rose to fame, the histories of American art offer nothing but a medley of misin- formation and prejudice in their scanty comments about all the painters who preceded Copley. And when the historians have dealt with early American music they have been, for the most part, just as ignorant, as prejudiced, and as parrot-like in their unquestioning 294 American Antiquarian Society [Oct., reiteration of the popular mjrth that "the Puritans hated music."

  • 2010 Was Not Just About Our Current Work
    1 GLOBAL REACH OF UUSC’S HUMAN-RIGHTS WORK 50 organizations in 23 countries THE AMERICAS AFRICA ASIA Argentina Egypt Afghanistan Bolivia Kenya Gaza Ecuador South Africa Iraq El Salvador Sudan Myanmar Guatemala Tanzania Pakistan Haiti Uganda Philippines Honduras Mexico Nicaragua Peru United States OUR VISION The Unitarian Universalist Service Committee envisions a world free from oppression and injustice, where all can realize their full human rights. OUR MISSION The Unitarian Universalist Service Committee advances human rights and social justice around the world, partnering with those who confront unjust power structures and mobilizing to challenge oppressive policies. Dear Members and Supporters, The great American labor and political leader Eugene Debs once said, “I would not lead you into this promised land . because if I could lead you in, someone else would lead you out.” Like Debs, UUSC is committed not to leading people to the promised land but to walking hand in hand with all those for whom that land is at the moment but a dream. One of our jobs is to make sure that UUSC members have opportunities to join that great journey. This year’s annual report describes four instances in which we did just that, in Haiti, Ecuador, Kenya, and the United States. The four projects you’ll read about — providing earthquake relief, defending the human right to water, supporting workers, and building religious understanding — are representative of the ways that UUSC works to advance human rights and social justice around the globe.
