  • Semaphore Sea Power Centre - Australia Issue 8, 2017 the Royal Australian Navy on the Silver Screen
    SEMAPHORE SEA POWER CENTRE - AUSTRALIA ISSUE 8, 2017 THE ROYAL AUSTRALIAN NAVY ON THE SILVER SCREEN In this day and age, technologies such as smart phones and tablets allow users to film and view video streams on almost any topic imaginable at the convenience of their fingertips. Indeed, most institutions, including the Royal Australian Navy (RAN), promote video streaming as part of carefully coordinated public relations, recruiting and social media programs. In yesteryear, however, this was not a simple process and the creation and screening of news reels, motion pictures and training films was a costly and time consuming endeavor for all concerned. Notwithstanding that, the RAN has enjoyed an ongoing presence on the silver screen, television and more recently the internet on its voyage from silent pictures to the technologically advanced, digital 21st century. The RAN’s earliest appearances in motion pictures occurred during World War 1. The first of these films was Sea Dogs of Australia, a silent picture about an Australian naval officer blackmailed into helping a foreign spy. The film’s public release in August 1914 coincided with the outbreak of war and it was consequently withdrawn after the Minister for Defence expressed security concerns over film footage taken on board the battlecruiser HMAS Australia (I). There was, however, an apparent change of heart following the victory of HMAS Sydney (I) over the German cruiser SMS Emden in November 1914. Australia’s first naval victory at sea proved big news around the globe The Art Brand Productions - The Raider Emden. and it did not take long before several short, silent propaganda films were produced depicting the action.

No part of this publication may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means, electronic or mechanical, including photocopy, recording, or any information storage and retrieval system, without permission in writing from the publisher. Published October 2018 For Ward W. Briggs, Jr., Henry Louis Gates, Jr., Meyer Reinhold and Cornel West, my friends and teachers. Introduction Many of us remain unaware that among the members of the American Philological Association (Society for Classical Studies since 2014) during the latter half of the nine- teenth century were people of African and African American descent, for little or noth- ing had been written about them before the American Philological Association published my pamphlet, The First Three African American Members of the American Philological Association in 2001. We have, however, understood for some time that Americans from the late eighteenth century through the nineteenth century were engaged in heated argu- ments about the appropriate type of education needed by Americans in general, and particularly over the needs of the newly-freed slaves after the Civil War. What we had not yet realized was that these were also concerns among members of the black diasporic community itself, which understood that the study of ancient Greek and Latin had long been the intellectual standard

  • Lost Villages of the Eastern Aleutians
    Chapter 14 The Agony of Makushin fter she arrived at Unalaska for medical treatment in the fall of 1935, Annie Olsen informed authorities that Pete Olsen had been molesting A her for five years. She was seventeen. Tatiana Olsen corroborated her adopted daughter’s affidavit and on September 6, 1935, Olsen was brought to Unalaska by the U.S. deputy marshal on a charge of rape. When the women appeared in court, however, they reversed their testimony, and the case against him was dismissed for insufficient evidence. Court officials considered conducting an investigation to determine if the women had perjured themselves. Annie returned to Makushin with her mother and, less than a year later, on June 19, 1936, she died at the age of eighteen. She was buried near the church. “What there was done to me in Sept. 1935,” Olsen wrote bitterly five years later, referring to those who had instigated and pursued the case, “is not forgotten and never will be.”1 By the mid-1930s, Elia Borenin had been selected as village chief. Akenfa Galaktionoff was second chief.2 Men continued traveling to the Pribilof Islands each June to work in the seal harvest. This meant that Olsen had to shear his sheep earlier than he might have wished. He confessed to the manager of the sheep ranch at Chernofski that he wasn’t much of sheep man. Nevertheless, he steadily increased the size of his herd, ran more fencing and experimented with local and imported grass for feed. He traded rams and ewes with the much larger ranch at Chernofski.

  • Jock Ross, Recruiting Men to His Club with the Purpose of Being the One Dominant Motorcycle Gang in Sydney and Eventually Australia
    A SCREENTIME production for Network Ten MEDIA KIT MEDIA CONTACTS Catherine Lavelle Kirsty Wilson FOR SCREENTIME NETWORK TEN PUBLICITY T 02 9405 2880 T 02 9650 1102 M 0413 88 55 95 M 0434 070 223 E [email protected] E [email protected] As at 20.3.12 Milperra a name that will be remembered in infamy. On September 2nd, Fathers Day 1984, two motorcycle clubs – the Bandidos and the Comancheros – went to war at a public swap meet. After a brief but violent battle, seven people had been shot dead, including a young innocent bystander, and some forty other club members needed hospitalisation. Brothers in Arms is the story of how that day came to pass. In the 1970s, the outlaw bikie scene was in its fledgling days. More wild west than organized crime, the Comancheros vied with many other motorcycle gangs for territory. As the tribes fought, the Comancheros were also fighting their own internal battle, with the Supreme Commander, Jock Ross, recruiting men to his club with the purpose of being the one dominant motorcycle gang in Sydney and eventually Australia. Not everyone agreed with his tactics. When the men challenged him, Jock split the club in what was a betrayal of his most loyal acolyte, Anthony “Snoddy” Spencer. With this act, Jock Ross misjudged the feelings of his men. Instead of staying with him, the majority mutinied, sticking with Snoddy who formed the Bandidos. And the seeds for Milperra were sown. With powerful forces within each of the rival clubs demanding retribution, a series of tit-for-tat attacks led to war being declared.
