  • Postwar Urban Redevelopment and North Dallas Freedman's Town
    Roads to Destruction: Postwar Urban Redevelopment and North Dallas Freedman’s Town by Cynthia Lewis Like most American cities following World War II, Dallas entered a period of economic prosperity, and city leaders, like their counterparts throughout the nation, sought to maximize that prosperity through various urban renewal initiatives.1 Black urban communities across the country, branded as blighted areas, fell victim to the onslaught of postwar urban redevelopment as city leaders initiated massive renewal projects aimed at both bolstering the appeal and accessibility of the urban center and clearing out large sections of urban black neighborhoods. Between the years 1943 and 1983, Dallas city officials directed a series of massive redevelopment projects that decimated each of the city’s black communities, displacing thousands and leaving these communities in a state of disarray.2 This paper, which focuses on the historically black Dallas community of North Dallas, argues that residential segregation, which forced the growth and evolution of North Dallas, ultimately led to the development of slum conditions that made North Dallas a target for postwar slum clearance projects which only served to exacerbate blight within the community. Founded in 1869 by former slaves, North Dallas, formerly known as Freedman’s Town, is one of the oldest black neighborhoods in Dallas.3 Located just northeast of downtown and bounded by four cemeteries to the north and white-owned homes to the south, east, and west, the area became the largest and most densely populated black settlement in the city. Residential segregation played a pivotal role in the establishment and evolution of North Dallas, as it did with most black urban communities across the country.4 Racial segregation in Dallas, with its roots in antebellum, began to take 1 For an in-depth analysis of the United States’ postwar economy, see Postwar Urban America: Demography, Economics, and Social Policies by John F.

Danny Yang• Page 1 Hebrews 11:13-16 All of these died in faith without having received the promises, but from a distance they saw and greeted them. They confessed that they were strangers and foreigners on the earth, for people who speak in this way make it clear that they are seeking a homeland. If they had been thinking of the land that they had left behind, they would have had opportunity to return. But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; indeed, he has prepared a city for them. Have you been to a wedding recently? Have you been to a wedding reception? In this room full of clergy and lay leaders, I’m sure we’ve been to more than our fair share. Do you remember the main course at the last reception? Did you have chicken, beef, or fish? Maybe among the more disciplined in this room, you took the vegetarian option. Now here’s a question that I’m really curious about: has anyone here ever eaten chicken feet at a wedding reception? In fact, how many of you have ever even had chicken feet before? This gets a bit personal for me because 15 years ago this coming August, my wife and I served chicken feet at our wedding reception here in Houston.

  • Latin Neighborhoods in the United States Ernesto Castañeda Assistant
    Latin Neighborhoods in the United States Ernesto Castañeda Assistant Professor of Sociology American University, Washington DC MARCH 1, 2019 Abstract Inner-cities, African-American neighborhoods, Chinatowns and other abstract concepts of racialized spaces occupy important roles in social theory and policy, yet the concept of the Barrio, or Mexican-American neighborhood, has faded away since Oscar Lewis’ work on “the culture of poverty.” Is there a policy or theoretical use to talking about U.S. Barrios in general or should the discussion of Mexican neighborhoods be place-specific? The presentation compares two Latino neighborhoods: El Barrio/East Harlem, New York City, NY; and El Segundo Barrio, El Paso, TX. Levels of Analysis Demographers use Census data and large surveys ◦ Good to look at trends in the size of the Latino population ◦ Macro Level Less common to look at ethnic groups beyond neighborhood boundaries and to compare between cities ◦ Good to look at particulars and generalizable processes ◦ Meso level Community Studies – look at particular neighborhoods ◦ Good to discover processes and social dynamics ◦ Micro Level (Castañeda et al. 2013) Chicago School Studied immigrants as communities in bounded urban areas. Urban Communities A theoretical, tourist, and mental map fetish? Research Questions Does it make sense to talk about a general Latino experience across the U.S.? Is there a policy or theoretical use to talking about U.S. Barrios in general or should the discussion of Mexican neighborhoods be place-specific? How do local contexts and built environments affect inter-ethnic relations? Barrios ❑ There is relatively small amount of academic work published about Barrios or Latino neighborhoods.

  • Hispanic Texans
    texas historical commission Hispanic texans Journey from e mpire to Democracy a GuiDe for h eritaGe travelers Hispanic, spanisH, spanisH american, mexican, mexican american, mexicano, Latino, Chicano, tejano— all have been valid terms for Texans who traced their roots to the Iberian Peninsula or Mexico. In the last 50 years, cultural identity has become even more complicated. The arrival of Cubans in the early 1960s, Puerto Ricans in the 1970s, and Central Americans in the 1980s has made for increasing diversity of the state’s Hispanic, or Latino, population. However, the Mexican branch of the Hispanic family, combining Native, European, and African elements, has left the deepest imprint on the Lone Star State. The state’s name—pronounced Tay-hahs in Spanish— derives from the old Spanish spelling of a Caddo word for friend. Since the state was named Tejas by the Spaniards, it’s not surprising that many of its most important geographic features and locations also have Spanish names. Major Texas waterways from the Sabine River to the Rio Grande were named, or renamed, by Spanish explorers and Franciscan missionaries. Although the story of Texas stretches back millennia into prehistory, its history begins with the arrival of Spanish in the last 50 years, conquistadors in the early 16th cultural identity century. Cabeza de Vaca and his has become even companions in the 1520s and more complicated. 1530s were followed by the expeditions of Coronado and De Soto in the early 1540s. In 1598, Juan de Oñate, on his way to conquer the Pueblo Indians of New Mexico, crossed the Rio Grande in the El Paso area.

  • The Kansas Immigrants Ii
    THE KANSAS IMMIGRANTS II Division of Continuing Education andKANU The University of Kansas THE KANSAS IMMIGRANTS II The Division of Continuing Education KANU The University of Kansas The Kansas Immigrant Series was produced by the University of Kansas Division of Continuing Education and KANU radio with support from the Kansas Committee for the Humanities National Public Radio, and the National Endow'ment for the Humanities. Copyright 1981 The University of Kansas Cover Design Jan Morris and Charli Frederick The Kansas Immigrants II The Kansas Immigrants II follows the highly successful radio series The Kansas Immigrants. The material for this second-year series has been broadcast on radio programs and published as newspaper articles. This bound volume contains the newspaper articles, which differ slightly in to'rm and content from the radio version. A bound volume of scripts is also available for the first-year series. The radio programs for both series are available on audio- cassettes. The Kansas Immigrants II addresses a number of issues: the efforts of immigrants to assimilate to the larger society while attempting to maintain their own ethnic identity, the occasional violence in the meeting of different cultures in formerly homogeneous communities, and the problem of understanding different family values and lifestyles from one culture to another. It also examines the difficulties in preserving ethnic heritage; the oppre~sion, segregation, and exploitation of ethnic minorities; the contributions of ethnic groups to the arts and cuisine; and the role of the ethnic church or organization in nurturing its members. The first series dealt with immigration to Kansas prior to 1920; the second-year programs dip back in time to pick up a few early topics but concen- trate mainly on developments after 1920.
