I told my daughter that we were going to court before she went to school. I thought that this would be a good chance for her to see how the justice system works. We arrived in the courtroom before all the activity began. Apparently, the Providence Police had a busy weekend. While we were waiting for the judge to take the bench, the sheriffs led out prostitutes in handcuffs who had been rounded up the night before. Soon after they came out, the judge took the bench and my client was arraigned. Once we got back to the car, I asked my daughter what she thought about the process. She responded, “I’m not sure about the process, but that jury was really sleazy.” My thought? I was really proud that she knew they had been put in the jury box.

  • Waterfronts for Work and Play: Mythscapes of Heritage and Identity in Contemporary Rhode Island
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: WATERFRONTS FOR WORK AND PLAY: MYTHSCAPES OF HERITAGE AND IDENTITY IN CONTEMPORARY RHODE ISLAND Kristen A. Williams, Doctor of Philosophy, 2010 Dissertation directed by: Dr. Nancy L. Struna Department of American Studies My dissertation examines the relationship between heritage sites, urban culture, and civic life in present-day Rhode Island, evaluating how residents‟ identities and patterns of civic engagement are informed by site-specific tourist narratives of eighteenth, nineteenth and early twentieth-century labor histories. Considering the adaptive reuse of former places of maritime trade and industry as contemporary sites of leisure, I analyze the role that historic tourism plays in local and regional economic urban redevelopment. I argue that the mythscapes of exceptionalism mobilized at Rhode Island‟s heritage sites create usable pasts in the present for current residents and visitors alike, alternatively foregrounding and obscuring intersectional categories of difference according to contemporaneous political climates at the local, national and transnational levels. This study is divided into two parts, organized chronologically and geographically. While Part I examines the dominant tourist narratives associated with Newport County, located in the southeast of the state and including Aquidneck Island (also known as Rhode Island), Part II takes the historic tourism associated with mainland Providence Plantations as its case study and focuses exclusively on Providence County, covering the middle
