STATEMENT OF HISTORIC CONTEXTS In 2000 Congress directed the National Park Service to prepare a theme study on the World War II home front. The purpose of the study is to identify historic places that best represent the wartime mobilization that occurred in the United States and its territories and possessions between 1939 and 1945 and that should be considered for National Historic Landmark designation or for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. The task of identifying places that can tell the home front story is a challenging one. Thousands of factories, government office buildings, research laboratories, housing projects, military bases, United Service Organization (USO) canteens, day care centers, and schools were built or expanded during the war. Theaters in hundreds of communities across the nation sponsored War Bond drives and showed both terrifying news reels and uplifting and entertaining movies. Railroad and bus stations in large cities and small towns could barely contain the millions of men and women passing through them on their way to military service or new defense jobs. Other places represented less positive wartime stories: segregated housing and military bases, war relocation centers for persons of Japanese descent, prisons where conscientious objectors were held, and sites of racial conflict or labor/management confrontation. Some home front properties have already been recognized. A number are included in the National Park System. The Rosie the Riveter/World War II Home Front National Historical Park, in Richmond, California, was established in 2000 specifically to recognize the important wartime contributions of workers, including women and minorities, and ordinary citizens, who collected and saved and sacrificed on the home front. Others have been designated as National Historic Landmarks or listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Because World War II is still so recent, most home front properties have not yet been comprehensively surveyed or evaluated. In addition, many sites have been lost to demolition or destructive change, in part because no one knew they were important. While these facts have made the completion of this theme study more difficult, they have also underlined the urgent necessity of providing the historic contexts needed to identify and recognize these properties as quickly as possible. This context section is divided into four parts. The first, written by John W. Jeffries, Professor of History at the University of Maryland Baltimore County, gives a general overview of the wartime home front, concentrating on the critical role of the federal government in mobilizing industry, science and technology, agriculture, manpower, money, morale, and security. It also discusses the impact of the mobilization on the nature of the American political economy, on prosperity and living standards, on opportunities and expectations, on demographic and geographic change, and on national politics. The second part was written by William M. Tuttle, Jr., Professor of American Studies at the University of Kansas. It provides more detail about how ordinary men, women, and children reacted to sometimes overwhelming population movements, to the absence of fathers and brothers in the military, to massive, if temporary, changes in women’s roles, and to the all-pervasive presence of the war in popular culture. The third part, written by Nelson Lichtenstein, Professor of History at the University of California, Santa Barbara, discusses the effects of the massive industrial mobilization on working people, particularly women and African Americans, and the central role of organized labor. This part also includes the battles for union recognition

  • Significant Dates in Asian/Chinese American History - 4 by Chinese American Heroes
    Significant Dates in Asian/Chinese American History - 4 By Chinese American Heroes Chinese American Heroes presents this series of significant dates in Asian American and Chinese American history. This is by no means a comprehensive list of events due to our limited time and resources for research. For the same reasons we concentrated on the major Asian American population groups in this country in numbers, the Chinese, Japanese, South Asian, Southeast Asian, and Filipino Americans. In Installment 4 we go from 1941 to 1945. World War II marks a major turning point as it sees Asian Americans serving in the US military and in war industries in unprecedented numbers. Job opportunities suddenly open up in many areas where Asian Americans had been blocked because of racism. The American alliance with China and the need to keep China in the war also leads to the formal end of the Chinese Exclusion Act, although immigration remains extremely limited. After the war, the GI Bill pays for the college education of Asian American veterans. These men and women then begin the climb up the ladder of American society towards the middle class and start leaving ethnic enclaves like Chinatown to move into formerly whites only suburbs. DATE EVENT 1941 Formation of the Military Intelligence Service (MIS) in November 1941. Language specialists are recruited to be attached to military units to provide translation and interrogation services. Many Japanese Americans are recruited or drafted directly from internment camps (see Executive Order 9066.) They are credited with shortening the war in the Pacific by at least a year with their services.

The Cathedral of St. John the Divine (Map New York disappear to differing amounts of fanfare and 18) has a very medieval vibe and is the world’s largest make room for whatever it is we’ll be romanticizing in the unfinished cathedral—a much cooler destination than the future. Ain’t that the circle of life? The landmarks discussed eternally crowded St. Patrick’s Cathedral (Map 12). are highly idiosyncratic choices, and this list is by no means complete or even logical, but we’ve included an array of places, from world famous to little known, all worth visiting.

Coolest Skyscrapers Head downtown to view City Hall (Map 3) (1812), Most visitors to New York go to the top of the Empire State Tweed Courthouse (Map 3) (1881), Jefferson Market Building (Map 9), but it’s far more familiar to New Yorkers Courthouse (Map 5) (1877—now a library), the Municipal from afar—as a directional guide, or as a tip-off to obscure Building (Map 3) (1914), and a host of other court- holidays (orange & white means it’s time to celebrate houses built in the early 20th century.

  • The Pillars of American Grand Strategy in World War II by Tami Davis Biddle
    Leveraging Strength: The Pillars of American Grand Strategy in World War II by Tami Davis Biddle Tami Davis Biddle is the Hoyt S. Vandenberg Chair of Aerospace Studies at the U.S. Army War College in Carlisle, PA. She is the author of Rhetoric and Reality in Air Warfare: The Evolution of British and American Thinking about Strategic Bombing, 1914–1945, and is at work on a new book titled, Taking Command: The United States at War, 1944–1945. This article is based on a lecture she delivered in March 2010 in The Hertog Program on Grand Strategy, jointly sponsored by Temple University’s Center for Force and Diplomacy, and FPRI. Abstract: This article argues that U.S. leaders navigated their way through World War II challenges in several important ways. These included: sustaining a functional civil-military relationship; mobilizing inside a democratic, capitalist paradigm; leveraging the moral high ground ceded to them by their enemies; cultivating their ongoing relationship with the British, and embra- cing a kind of adaptability and resiliency that facilitated their ability to learn from mistakes and take advantage of their enemies’ mistakes. ooking back on their World War II experience from the vantage point of the twenty-first century, Americans are struck, first of all, by the speed L with which everything was accomplished: armies were raised, fleets of planes and ships were built, setbacks were overcome, and great victories were won—all in a mere 45 months. Between December 1941 and August 1945, Americans faced extraordinary challenges and accepted responsibilities they had previously eschewed.

  • An Organized Inequity
    The AlexAndriAn VII, no. 1 (2018) An Organized Inequity Lauren Post “An Organized Inequity” counters the accepted narrative of Japanese-Americans assimilating back into American society with ease. Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s signing of Executive Order 9066 allowed for Japanese Relocation, as well as the hardships yet to come for those of Japanese heritage in America. It takes into account personal testimonies from camp inmates, examines education repertoire for children within the camps, as well as graduation statistics from Japanese-American students within the camps in comparison to white students, and other minorities within the States. The essay endeavors to explicate the effect that poor living conditions and ineffective education within the camps, as well as discrimination faced after the war, had on the strive and success rate of Japanese-American children after World War II. At first, they were gathered quietly, slowly, and then, all at once—a mass incarceration orchestrated within forty-eight hours after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Paranoia trailed closely behind the hysteria of war, turning rational thought into anxiety riddled with hatred. Those of Japanese heritage living within the United States at the time, found themselves ill-suited to face the hostilities that would soon engulf their world. By the end of 1942, two congressional committees began investigating means of evacuating the Japanese, including Americans of Japanese ancestry. On February 13, a meeting of the Congressional Committees on Defense and on Alien Nationality and Sabotage, passed a resolution, recommending that there be an immediate evacuation of absolutely all people of Japanese lineage, as well as any others whose presence was deemed by the U.S.

  • William Faulkner, Richard M. Weaver, and the Crisis of Modernity
    Divine Philosophies of Two Southern Gentlemen: William Faulkner, Richard M. Weaver, and the Crisis of Modernity Submitted by Vickie Lynn Caudle A thesis submitted i n partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Northeastern State University December 2015 ii Divine Philoso ph ies of Two Southern Gen tlemen: Will iam Faulkner, Richard M. Weave r, and the Crisis of Moderni ty Vickie Lynn Caudle Th is th esis is approv .for recom mend ation to the Graduate College / / 2 Dean, Graduate College, Date 3 Abstract This thesis is an examination of the response in writing of two Southern writers, William Faulkner and Richard M. Weaver, to the crisis of modernity. In looking at some of the changes brought about in the society as well as problems created, these two Southern sons respond to the same and offer some solutions through Platonic ideas or concepts of the metaphysical as is shown in their narrative and philosophical work. Two of the early works of Faulkner, The Unvanquished and Sanctuary, as well as three of the essays of Weaver, "The Phaedrus and the Nature of Rhetoric," "To Write the Truth," and "The Power of the Word," are considered. Weaver offers a powerful critique of modernity and the problems associated with it. Faulkner's offering is less direct, as his is through the creative response of narrative. Both demonstrate how the evils of modernity can be countered by a combination of dialectic and right rhetoric rooted in a commitment to the ideas of the metaphysical. 4 Acknowledgements I would like to thank everyone who has listened to, encouraged, and supported me throughout this endeavor.
