  • The Colorblind Turn in Indian Country: Lumbee Indians, Civil Rights, and Tribal State Formation
    The Colorblind Turn in Indian Country: Lumbee Indians, Civil Rights, and Tribal State Formation by Harold Walker Elliott A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the University of Michigan 2019 Doctoral Committee: Professor Philip Deloria, Co-Chair, Harvard University Professor Matthew Lassiter, Co-Chair Associate Professor Matthew Countryman Professor Barbra Meek Professor Tiya Miles, Harvard University Harold Walker Elliott [email protected] ORCID iD 0000-0001-5387-3188 © Harold Walker Elliott 2019 DEDICATION To my father and mother, Hal and Lisa Elliott And for Lessie Sweatt McCloud, her ancestors, and her descendants ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This dissertation is the culmination of eight years of graduate study and nearly a decade of research, writing, and editing. The result is deeply imperfect. Its faults come from my many shortcomings as an author. For anything this project does accomplish, I owe credit to the many people who have helped me along the way. Completing this project would have been impossible without the love, support, and inspiration of my parents, Hal and Lisa Elliott. During my upbringing, they instilled the values that guided me through the moral choices that a project like this one entails. My mother and her family have always been the driving forces behind my research into Lumbee and American Indian history. My father, a reluctant physician, passed down his fondness for history and dream of writing it. In the many difficult moments over the past eight years, my parents steadied me with long hugs or reassuringly familiar, South Carolina-accented voices on the phone.

  • Lessons on Political Speech, Academic Freedom, and University Governance from the New North Carolina
    LESSONS ON POLITICAL SPEECH, ACADEMIC FREEDOM, AND UNIVERSITY GOVERNANCE FROM THE NEW NORTH CAROLINA * Gene Nichol Things don’t always turn out the way we anticipate. Almost two decades ago, I came to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC) after a long stint as dean of the law school in Boulder, Colorado. I was enthusiastic about UNC for two reasons. First, I’m a southerner by blood, culture, and temperament. And, for a lot of us, the state of North Carolina had long been regarded as a leading edge, perhaps the leading edge, of progressivism in the American South. To be sure, Carolina’s progressive habits were often timid and halting, and usually exceedingly modest.1 Still, the Tar Heel State was decidedly not to be confused with Mississippi, Alabama, South Carolina, or my home country, Texas. Frank Porter Graham, Terry Sanford, Bill Friday, Ella Baker, and Julius Chambers had cast a long and ennobling shadow. Second, I have a thing for the University of North Carolina itself. Quite intentionally, I’ve spent my entire academic career–as student, professor, dean, and president–at public universities. I have nothing against the privates. But it has always seemed to me that the crucial democratizing aspirations of higher education in the United States are played out, almost fully, in our great and often ambitious state institutions. And though they have their challenges, the mission of public higher education is a near-perfect one: to bring the illumination and opportunity offered by the lamp of learning to all. Black and white, male and female, rich and poor, rural and urban, high and low, newly arrived and ancient pedigreed–all can, the theory goes, deploy education’s prospects to make the promises of egalitarian democracy real.

  • A Jewish Tour of the Carolinas
    THE LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA AT CHAPEL HILL THE COLLECTION OF NORTH CAROLINIANA PRESENTED BY Elizabeth and Walter J. Klein Cp296 K64j Preface You can tell a Jewish traveler by the way he checks into a hotel room, unpacks and automatically skims the local phonebook for Jewish names and places. His sense of history takes him to the nearest synagogue, where he looks for familiar names on the memorial plaques. His optimism shows when he sits down in a kosher restaurant and hopes to bump into a friend of a friend. When he looks at his U.S. map, he may be wise enough to discover the Carolinas, where Jewish population is generally enjoying healthy growth. Yet to thousands of Jewish travelers the Carolinas are unfamiliar territory. Motorists speed from New York to Florida, stop overnight at South of the Border, and are greeted in Miami with two questions: "So which way did you come?" and "How long did it take you?" This modest publication may change all that. Within the 85,829 square miles of these two states lie treasures for Jews of all ages, persuasions and personalities. Many of the following 54 destinations come as refreshing surprises even to Jewish people born and living in North and South Carolina. There are unbelievable stories (try #32), touching spots (#46), surprises (#35) and oddities (#52-54). You can find places where Jews gave to the communities they loved and places where communities honored the Jews they loved. When you opt to see all or most of these destinations, think about at least two days each in Charlotte and Charleston.

  • Did You Know? North Carolina
    Did You Know? North Carolina Discover the history, geography, and government of North Carolina. The Land and Its People The state is divided into three distinct topographical regions: the Coastal Plain, the Piedmont Plateau, and the Appalachian Mountains. The Coastal Plain affords opportunities for farming, fishing, recreation, and manufacturing. The leading crops of this area are bright-leaf tobacco, peanuts, soybeans, and sweet potatoes. Large forested areas, mostly pine, support pulp manufacturing and other forest-related industries. Commercial and sport fishing are done extensively on the coast, and thousands of tourists visit the state’s many beaches. The mainland coast is protected by a slender chain of islands known as the Outer Banks. The Appalachian Mountains—including Mount Mitchell, the highest peak in eastern America (6,684 feet)—add to the variety that is apparent in the state’s topography. More than 200 mountains rise 5,000 feet or more. In this area, widely acclaimed for its beauty, tourism is an outstanding business. The valleys and some of the hillsides serve as small farms and apple orchards; and here and there are business enterprises, ranging from small craft shops to large paper and textile manufacturing plants. The Piedmont Plateau, though dotted with many small rolling farms, is primarily a manufacturing area in which the chief industries are furniture, tobacco, and textiles. Here are located North Carolina’s five largest cities. In the southeastern section of the Piedmont—known as the Sandhills, where peaches grow in abundance—is a winter resort area known also for its nationally famous golf courses and stables.

Communication in Young Children with Fragile X Syndrome: A Qualitative Study of Mothers’ Perspectives Nancy Brady, University of Kansas Debra Skinner, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill Joanne Roberts, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill Elizabeth Hennon University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill Abstract Purpose: The purposes of the study were to provide descriptive and qualitative information about communication in young children with fragile X syndrome (FXS) and about how families react to and accommodate communication differences in their children. Method: In-depth interviews were conducted with 55 mothers of young children with FXS. Interviewers asked mothers to describe their children’s communication, strategies they used to help promote their children’s communication, communication-related frustrations, their expectations for their children and the roles that they perceive for themselves. Results: Over half the children were nonverbal and learning to communicate with augmentative or alternative communication (AAC). Mothers reported using strategies that were developmentally appropriate and recommended by early childhood experts, such as reading and talking to their children. Many mothers identified challenges faced in helping their child to communicate, and some cited difficulty obtaining speech-language services as a challenge. Mothers identified their roles as caregiver, teacher, therapist and advocate. Conclusions: The perspectives offered by mothers are valuable because they indicate how children with FXS communicate in natural contexts.
