Shufelt ABSTRACT This dissertation examines relations between African-Americans and Italian immigrants during the early development of the Italian-immigrant community in Baltimore. The first part includes a summary of the social, political, and economic circumstances in which interactions between African-Americans and Italian immigrants occurred at the end of the nineteenth century. The second part traces the development of relations between these two groups as the people of Baltimore lived through a series of crises, including a major fire in the central business district, two attempts to disfranchise African-Americans, and a series of ordinances intended to exclude African-Americans from living in predominantly white neighborhoods. The crises that occurred in the early twentieth century presented bases for cooperation as well as conflict between African-Americans and Italian immigrants. Both groups faced difficulties as a result of lost jobs following the fire. In the disfranchisement campaigns of 1905 and 1909, African-Americans and Italian immigrants faced similar political concerns, as the disfranchisement plans jeopardized the voting rights of all ii Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

Housing segregation ordinances directed against African-Americans raised the possibility that similar ordinances might be used against immigrants. On the other hand, African-Americans and Italian immigrants had similar employment skills and competed for jobs and housing. Despite the potential for both cooperation and conflict, Italian immigrants in Baltimore developed attitudes about race relations that discouraged cooperation with African-Americans, even in circumstances in which African Americans and Italian immigrants had common interests. The cultural adjustment o f Italian immigrants to a racially and ethnically diverse society in Baltimore was the product of interactions with not only African-Americans, but also Baltimore’s many other ethnic communities. Through these interactions, Italian immigrants learned that, in America, African- Americans were defined as permanent outsiders, and for newcomers, such as Italian immigrants, it was important to separate themselves African-Americans. iii Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Among the thousands of travelers who arrived in Baltimore in the nineteenth century were two nine-year-old boys, Frederick Douglas and Augustine Palmisano. Douglas was bom into slavery on an isolated plantation near Easton, in Talbot County, on Maryland's Eastern Shore, where he lived until his master shipped him to Baltimore to work as an errand boy. On a Sunday morning in 1826, following a day's sailing on the Chesapeake Bay, Douglas first saw the city from the deck of his master’s sloop, the Sally Lloyd.1 Palmisano's voyage to Baltimore was far longer; he was bom in Sicily, then emigrated to Baltimore in the 1880s with his parents, Cosimo and Anna Marie, and his younger brother, Vincent2 1 Frederick Douglas, Life and Times of Frederick Douglass, with an Introduction by Rayford W.

Frederick Douglas, as a slave boy, and Augustine Palmisano, as an immigrant boy, both arrived in Baltimore as strangers in a new land. Nonetheless, each found in Baltimore much that served him well inmanhood. Removed from the isolation of Maryland's rural Eastern Shore, Douglas came into contact with a wider world in which he discovered the "direct pathway horn slavery to freedom."3 He seized the opportunity to acquire literacy, thereby gaining access to the knowledge he used to escape from slavery and become famous as an anti-slavery advocate, writer, publisher, adviser to President Lincoln, and Consul General to the Republic of Haiti. Palmisano's fame and national stature were not comparable to Douglas's, but he too mastered written English, and thereby gained access to the scientific knowledge he used to become

  • Italy's Atlanticism Between Foreign and Internal
    UNISCI Discussion Papers, Nº 25 (January / Enero 2011) ISSN 1696-2206 ITALY’S ATLANTICISM BETWEEN FOREIGN AND INTERNAL POLITICS Massimo de Leonardis 1 Catholic University of the Sacred Heart Abstract: In spite of being a defeated country in the Second World War, Italy was a founding member of the Atlantic Alliance, because the USA highly valued her strategic importance and wished to assure her political stability. After 1955, Italy tried to advocate the Alliance’s role in the Near East and in Mediterranean Africa. The Suez crisis offered Italy the opportunity to forge closer ties with Washington at the same time appearing progressive and friendly to the Arabs in the Mediterranean, where she tried to be a protagonist vis a vis the so called neo- Atlanticism. This link with Washington was also instrumental to neutralize General De Gaulle’s ambitions of an Anglo-French-American directorate. The main issues of Italy’s Atlantic policy in the first years of “centre-left” coalitions, between 1962 and 1968, were the removal of the Jupiter missiles from Italy as a result of the Cuban missile crisis, French policy towards NATO and the EEC, Multilateral [nuclear] Force [MLF] and the revision of the Alliance’ strategy from “massive retaliation” to “flexible response”. On all these issues the Italian government was consonant with the United States. After the period of the late Sixties and Seventies when political instability, terrorism and high inflation undermined the Italian role in international relations, the decision in 1979 to accept the Euromissiles was a landmark in the history of Italian participation to NATO.

During 65 years of building, fighting and maturing, the VPA together with the people of Vietnam has gained a series of glorious victories winning major wars against foreign aggressors, contributing mightily to the people’s democratic revolution, regaining independence, and freedom, and reunifying the whole nation. This has set the country on a firm march toward building socialism, and realising the goal of “a wealthy people, a powerful country, and an equitable, democratic and civilized society.” Under the leadership of the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV), the country’s comprehensive renovation has gained significant historical achievements. Despite all difficulties caused by the global financial crisis, natural disasters and internal economic weaknesses, the country’s socio-political situation remains stable; national defence- security has been strengthened; social order and safety have been maintained; and the international prestige and position of Vietnam have been increasingly improved. As a result, the new posture and strength for building and safeguarding the Homeland have been created. In the process of active and proactive international integration, under the complicated and unpredictable 7 conditions in the region as well as in the world, Vietnam has had great opportunities for cooperation and development while facing severe challenges and difficulties that may have negative impacts on the building and safeguarding of the Homeland.

The Industry Baltimore’s cultural, entertainment, and natural amenities are enjoyed by the residents in the Baltimore region as well as national and international tourists. In 2004, 11.79 million visitors from outside the Baltimore region explored the many attractions our City has to offer. In addition, 3.97 million visitors liv- ing in the Baltimore region, but outside Baltimore City, visited Baltimore. Of course, the 650,000 Baltimore City residents also enjoyed Baltimore’s numer- ous cultural, entertainment, and natural resource amenities. These amenities provide activities for all segments of the population, from youth and families to the elderly. The following discussion focuses on the market for Baltimore’s cultural, entertainment, and natural amenities, with emphasis on our customer base, market size, and trends. Heritage and Cultural Resources Baltimore’s heritage and cultural tourism industry provides place-based, unique experiential products that range from large, world-renowned attractions and events to small, locally celebrated attractions and events. The heritage and cultural tourism industry provides products within three broad areas: visual arts, including art museums, galleries, schools, studios, architecture and archi- tecture-related events; performing arts, including theater, art cinema, dance, and music; and historical and cultural resources, including history museums, literary events, bus and walking tours, and historic districts.1 These resources provide life-enriching experiences that are attracting a larger number of visitors who are generally over the age of 40. Heritage and Cultural tourism is expanding its products, especially in the African American niche market. In addition, visitation to historic and culturally rich neighborhoods is increasing.

Cowan M.A., University of Cincinnati, 2003 B.A., King College, 1999 Committee Chair: Dr. David Stradling Abstract This dissertation examines the growth of tourism as a strategy for downtown renewal in the postwar American city. In the years after World War II, American cities declined precipitously as residents and businesses relocated to rapidly-expanding suburbs. Governmental and corporate leaders, seeking to arrest this decline, embarked upon an ambitious program of physical renewal of downtowns. The postwar “urban crisis” was a boon for the urban tourist industry. Finding early renewal efforts ineffective in stemming the tide of deindustrialization and suburbanization, urban leaders subsidized, with billions of dollars in public finances, the construction of an infrastructure of tourism within American downtowns. By the latter decades of the period, tourist development had moved from a relatively minor strategy for urban renewal to a key measure of urban success.

  • Cities and Cinema
    Cities and Cinema Films about cities abound. They provide fantasies for those who recognize their city and those for whom the city is a faraway dream or nightmare. How does cinema rework city planners’ hopes and city dwellers’ fears of modern urbanism? Can an analysis of city films answer some of the questions posed in urban studies? What kinds of vision for the future and images of the past do city films offer? What are the changes that city films have undergone? Cities and Cinema puts urban theory and cinema studies in dialogue. The book’s first section analyzes three important genres of city films that follow in historical sequence, each associated with a particular city, moving from the city film of the Weimar Republic to the film noir associated with Los Angeles and the image of Paris in the cinema of the French New Wave. The second section discusses socio-historical themes of urban studies, beginning with the relationship of film industries and individual cities, continuing with the portrayal of war-torn and divided cities, and ending with the cinematic expression of utopia and dystopia in urban science fiction. The last section negotiates the question of identity and place in a global world, moving from the portrayal of ghettos and barrios to the city as a setting for gay and lesbian desire, to end with the representation of the global city in transnational cinematic practices. The book suggests that modernity links urbanism and cinema. It accounts for the significant changes that city film has undergone through processes of globalization, during which the city has developed from an icon in national cinema to a privileged site for transnational cinematic practices.
