Interview with Ambassador Keith L. Wauchope Library of Congress Interview with Ambassador Keith L. Wauchope Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Foreign Affairs Oral History Project AMBASSADOR KEITH L. WAUCHOPE Interviewed by: Charles Stuart Kennedy Initial interview date: March 8, 2002 Copyright 2007 ADST Q: Today is March 8th, 2002. This is an interview with Keith Wauchope. This is done on behalf of the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training and I'm Charles Stuart Kennedy. Keith, let's start kind of at the beginning. Could you tell me when and where you were born? WAUCHOPE: I was born at Manhattan Hospital in New York City on October 13, 1941. My parents actually lived out on the south shore of Long Island at the time Q: Okay, tell me a bit about, first of all on your father's side, sort of where the family came from and your father's education and what he was doing. WAUCHOPE: Okay, well, my father's father came to the United States in the early 1880s. He was a young man in County Cavan, Ireland and was sent by his father down to Trinity College Dublin to study for the ministry, the Presbyterian ministry. He and his older brother Jack, who was also studying at Trinity, decided they didn't want to become ministers, so they quite literally ran away to sea. He and his brother first went off to Australia and this trade between the UK, between England and Australia. After several voyages in the 1870s my grandfather jumped ship and joined the Australian army. I was told and that he stayed in Australia for only about six months or so, and then deserted the army and signed onto Interview with Ambassador Keith L. Wauchope http://www.loc.gov/item/mfdipbib001660 Library of Congress another ship to Peru. He joined the Peruvian navy and stayed with them for a while. He earned a naval rating, and then he deserted the Peruvian navy and caught a ship to San Francisco. He came ashore in San Francisco and joined the U.S. Navy. Q: About when was this? WAUCHOPE: He would have come to the United States in the early 1880s, I guess. Having joined the United States navy, he became very intrigued with American democracy and political issues. He ended up being the librarian at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Since he never had a college education, he started to educate himself through reading the books in the library. He became persuaded that socialism was the most rational system, so he became a socialist. When he got out of the navy he joined the American Socialist Party and he became a journalist for the socialist party, eventually the editor of the New York Call. Prior to that, he worked for socialist publications in Chicago, Erie, Pennsylvania and eventually in New York. The New York Call was an influential socialist newspaper in New York and because of his stature as the editor and because of his oratorical skills; in 1910 the socialists made him their candidate for mayor of New York on the socialist ticket. I believe that it was at that time he changed his name to Wanhope, W-A-N-H- O-P-E so as to be easier to pronounce for his supporters. In 1912 he was the socialist candidate for governor of New York. He was soundly defeated both times, needless to say. Then in 1917 when the United States entered World War I, Eugene Debs, the leader of the American Socialist Party denounced the war as a creature of the “malefactors of great wealth” and called upon all socialists to refuse to participate. My grandfather said that this position was wrong. He believed that if the Socialist Party worked against the United States participation in the First World War, that the party would in fact be destroyed because the war was a popular cause. As a result, my grandfather was run out of the party. Eugene Debs went to prison and my grandfather lost his job as editor, and, unable to find other jobs in journalism, he went back to sea. I guess he remained at sea until the late '20s or early '30s when he finally was able to retire. Interview with Ambassador Keith L. Wauchope http://www.loc.gov/item/mfdipbib001660 Library of Congress As my father's family never had much money since my grandfather never made more than $25 per week as a newspaper editor, my father ended up going to the New York School Ship, which was the merchant marine academy for the State of New York at that time. It was a two-year course and he received a certificate to sit for the third mate's exam. You had to be 21 to get your certificate as a third mate, which he eventually did. In any event he went on and became a second mate, first mate and in seven years he made a captain. He was a captain for seven years aboard the Farrell Lines ships - well, it was then the American South African Lines - and then it later became the Farrell Lines. Its principal business was with Africa, southern Africa. My father came ashore and married in 1935. He was made the port captain for the company. He met my mother when he was Captain of the S.S. City of New York, a small passenger liner. He had the chief steward make sure that all the attractive, single ladies aboard this flagship vessel were seated at the captain's table and hence he met my mother. We'll talk a little bit about her later. When the U.S. joined the Second World War, he was called to active duty despite being the father of three children. He had a naval reserve commission as a result of his training at the merchant marine academy. He was brought in as a lieutenant commander and then promoted to commander and captain. He was made the commanding officer of Sheepshead Bay Naval Training Facility in Brooklyn, New York. He worked in that position for about 18 months. He ran afoul of the left-leaning, in some cases communist, labor unions. At their request he was removed, but as he had always wanted a sea command. He commanded an attack transport in the Pacific for a period of about two and a half years and participated in 21 amphibious operations. After VJ Day, he returned to the United States where he rejoined the Farrell Lines. He had opened up its east African trade just before the war, and after the war he was sent out to open its West African trade. He was made the executive vice president and eventually in the 1960s, the president of the company. It was that African connection that got me interested in that region of the world because in 1959 and again in 1960 I took cruises as a deck cadet aboard the Farrell Line Interview with Ambassador Keith L. Wauchope http://www.loc.gov/item/mfdipbib001660 Library of Congress ships. The first voyage was to South Africa and the second to West Africa, and I think that sort of gave me a flavor of that part of the world. Q: Your mother's background? WAUCHOPE: Yes. Well, she was from Baltimore by origin and her father was an Irish immigrant as well. In point of fact, both of my grandfathers were born in Ireland, one in Northern Ireland, in County Cavan and the other one in Mayo. Her father had come to the United States to be a seminary student, but then chose not to pursue the seminary. He ended up, as far as I understand it, a traveling book salesman. My mother's mother was quite young, a good deal younger than he was and my mother remembers him being gone quite a bit of the time. Nonetheless, she was brought up by her mother in Baltimore. Then when she was about 20 years of age she decided to go to New York. She had already been working by that time for a shipping company; she completed high school, but didn't go to college. In New York she worked as various jobs as a secretary or executive assistant in shipping and later in advertising. She had some interesting experiences in that process. While working for a temporary agency, she worked for Lowell Thomas one evening recording in short hand his interview with Jimmy Doolittle over dinner. Through this agency she ended up working for Osa and Martin Johnson who were called explorers, but were entrepreneurs in filming exotic places. Q: Oh yes, hell's a popping. Wonderful comedians. I saw them in New York. WAUCHOPE: Yes. Oh, you're thinking of Olsen and Johnson. Q: Oh, no, no. This is Osa and Martin Johnson. Oh, yes. WAUCHOPE: Osa and Martin Johnson. Right. They made adventure movies. Q: Flying those amphibian planes and all that. Interview with Ambassador Keith L. Wauchope http://www.loc.gov/item/mfdipbib001660 Library of Congress WAUCHOPE: That's right. Exactly. They flew some of the very first amphibians and they flew them over to Africa. In 1933 I believe it was my mother was now their full time secretary back in their apartment in New York while they had a place just outside of Nairobi, which was their base of operations in East Africa, their aircraft flew out of that area as well. My mother was doing their income tax, very few people had to pay income tax at that time, but they made enough money from their movies and lecture tours and books that they did in fact have to pay.

  • The Case of the U.S.-Based Liberian Diaspora Osman
    THE PROMISE AND PERILS OF DIASPORA PARTNERSHIPS FOR PEACE: THE CASE OF THE U.S-BASED LIBERIAN DIASPORA OSMAN ANTWI-BOATENG, PH.D. United Arab Emirates University Department of Political Science Al Ain, UAE ABSTRACT In seeking to contribute towards peace-building in Liberia, the U.S-based Liberian Diaspora is building international partnerships with its liberal minded host country, liberal institutions such as the United Nations and Non-Governmental Organizations and private and corporate entities in the host land. There is a convergence of interests between moderate diaspora groups interested in post- conflict peace-building and liberal minded countries and international institutions seeking to promote the liberal peace. The convergence of such multiple actors offers better prospects for effective building in the homeland because collectively, they serve as counter-weights to the parochial foreign policy impulses of each peace-building stakeholder that might be inimical to peace-building. While there are opportunities for the U.S-based Liberian diaspora to forge international partnerships for peace-building, there are challenges that can undermine well intentioned collaborations. These include: logistical challenges in executing transnational projects; self-seeking Diaspora members, divided leadership and poor coordination, and lack of sustainability of international partnerships. KEYWORDS: Liberia, Diaspora, peace-building, Civil War, Africa, Conflict. _______ INTRODUCTION The dominant discourse about the link between Diasporas and conflict has been overwhelmingly negative and this is not without foundation. A seminal work by Collier et al. (1999) at the World Bank made two conclusions. First, the external resources provided by the Diaspora can generate conflict. Second, the Diaspora poses a greater risk for renewed conflict even when conflict has abated.

  • Losing Your Internet: Narratives of Decline Among Long- Time Users
    CHAPTER THREE Losing Your Internet: Narratives of Decline among Long- Time Users KEVIN DRISCOLL Annette Markham’s Life Online (1998) documents an historical conjuncture in which the visibility of the Internet in popular culture outpaced hands-on access for most Americans. At the time that Markham was completing her fieldwork, approximately one-third of Americans reported using the Internet, most of whom were white, wealthy, highly educated, and male (Rainie, 2017). Yet, for half a decade, news and entertainment media had been saturated with stories of the Internet as a technical marvel, economic opportunity, social revolution, and moral threat (Schulte, 2013; Streeter, 2017). Every few months, the cover of Time magazine added a new dimension to the Internet story, from the “info highway” in 1993, to the “cyberporn” panic in 1995, dot-com “golden geeks” in 1996, and the “death of privacy” in 1997. Beyond these sensational headlines, friends and coworkers gos- siped about relationships and romances forming online. Early users of the Internet were similarly enthusiastic and many shared a sense that computer-mediated com- munication might transform the social world. Even Markham described her initial observations of the internet and its growing user population as “astounding” and “extraordinary” (1998, pp. 16–17). At the turn of the century, the Internet seemed charged with unknown possibility. Twenty years later, the structure of feeling that characterized early encoun- ters with the Internet has changed. For millions of people, computer-mediated communication is now an unremarkable aspect of everyday life. In comparison to the fantastical multi-user environments that Markham described in 1998, typical uses of the internet in 2017 seem quite dull: reading the news, solving a crossword 26 | KEVIN DRISCOLL puzzle, shopping for household goods, or arranging meetings with coworkers.

  • Remarks for Chairman Fred Hochberg American Association of Port Authorities Spring Conference Washington, DC – March 25Th, 2014
    Remarks for Chairman Fred Hochberg American Association of Port Authorities Spring Conference Washington, DC – March 25th, 2014 Good afternoon. Thank you, Kurt, for that introduction, and thanks for inviting me to join you here today. I’ve always felt a strong connection to the work you do as Port Authority professionals. And that’s for two reasons: one nostalgic, and one professional. The first reason goes back to 1967, when I was 15 years old. Yes, I’ll do the math for you—I’m 62 today. That year, I had the opportunity to board a freighter headed from Brooklyn to southern Africa. The carrier was a company called Farrell Lines. Today, Farrell Lines still operates a fleet under the Danish Maersk Line, carrying American military cargoes across the Atlantic. On the voyage I took as a teenager, we made our way around the Cape of Good Hope, stopping at a number of ports along the way. I visited Namibia, which at the time was still called German South-West Africa. I visited Angola. I visited the city of Maputo in Mozambique, which was then known as Lourenço Marques. Of course, I had no idea at the time that I’d ever be back in Mozambique, let alone as a government employee. But 45 years later, I was there again—this time to promote U.S. energy and infrastructure investment. As a young man, experiencing a new and mysterious continent was the thrill of a lifetime. And I’ll never forget how it felt to be on that freighter, making our way through bustling harbors, exploring southern Africa port by port.
