    July 6, 2020 VIA ELECTRONIC MAIL Roger Goodell, Commissioner National FootBall League 280 Park Avenue New York, NY 10017 [email protected] Dear Mr. Goodell, The undersigned are Native American leaders and organizations that have worked tirelessly and substantively for over half a century to change the racist name of the Washington team. We appreciate the statements made in recent days regarding the league and the team’s intention to revisit the name, But we are deeply concerned that the process or decision to rename is Being made in aBsence of any discussion with the concerned leadership. Specifically, we, the undersigned, request that the NFL immediately: 1. Require the Washington NFL team (Owner- Dan Snyder) to immediately change the name R*dsk*ns, a dictionary defined racial slur for Native Peoples. 2. Require the Washington team to immediately cease the use of racialized Native American Branding By eliminating any and all imagery of or evocative of Native American culture, traditions, and spirituality from their team franchise including the logo. This includes the use of Native terms, feathers, arrows, or monikers that assume the presence of Native American culture, as well as any characterization of any physical attributes. 3. Cease the use of the 2016 Washington Post Poll and the 2004 National AnnenBerg Election Survey which have Been repeatedly used By the franchise and supporters to rationalize the use of the racist r-word name. These surveys were not academically vetted and were called unethical and inaccurate By the Native American Journalist Association as well as deemed damaging By other prominent organizations that represent Native Peoples.

  • Babes in Bondage: Indentured Irish Children in Philadelphia in The
    Babes in Bondage: Indentured Irish Children in Philadelphia in the Nineteenth Century HE experiences of childhood, emotional, enhanced by the innocence of youth, and profoundly affecting, are a challenge Tto the imagination of the social historian. Children, even more than adults submerged in the mass of illiterate and inarticulate people in the past, are largely without historical chroniclers.1 Study of the influence of social customs, of home life, education and work life requires insight into the conditions of childhood. Not only were attitudes toward childhood different in the past from those of our own time, but there were types of juvenile experience quite different from contemporary forms of childhood participation. This is readily illustrated by the institution of child indentures in the nineteenth century. In Philadelphia the practice of legally binding children extended back to colonial times, from whence it was derived from England. Part of William Penn's original scheme for populating his vast holdings was a plan by which emigrants would be first indentured to captains of ships in England, and upon landing in Pennsylvania the indenture would then be sold to an American buyer.2 The institution of indenture was ancient, rooted in law and custom, and accepted as part of the economic and social life in the colonies. 1 The beginnings of a broader-based study of family and childhood have emerged in such studies as Shirley Glubock (ed.), Home Life and Child Care in Colonial Days (New York, 1969); Harvey L. Graff, "Patterns of Dependency and Child Development in the Mid- Nineteenth Century City: A Sample from Boston," History of Education Quarterly, XVII (1973), 12,9-143; Joseph F.

Conditions, if any, stipulated by Witness Nil File No. S.1666 Form Statement by John McCoy, Greenhills, Kill, Co. Kildare. I was born on a farm of about 70 acres in a bowl shaped valley surrounded with mountains in South Armagh. My mother who died when I was 15 years of age was an O'Hanlon. Her family claimed direct descent from the Princes of Orior who before the plantation of Ulster were the traditional standard bearers to the O'Neills, Princes of Tyrone. The last chieftain of the O'Hanlon clan was Redmond 0'Hanlon who at the time of the plantation of Ulster in or about 1670 was serving as an officer in the French Army and had been awarded the title of Count by the French Government. My earliest recollection of my mother was her recounting to me the successes and adventures of her famous forebearer who returned to Ulster to drive the Sassanagh out and deal in particular with the undertakers who had murdered his Ulster kith and kin and taken possession of his family lands in the neighbourhood of Tanderagee, Co. Armagh. I was told how this same Redmond O'Hanlon gathered together a body of men who were prepared to take up the hazardous endeavour of an Irish Rapparee in order to harass and dispossess the planters who had taken over all the rich lands of the area.
