West? Why was it so hard to stop violence and crime? As homesteaders, hunters, miners and cattle ranchers flooded onto the Plains, they not only came into conflict with the Plains Indians who already lived there, but also with each other. This was a time of robberies, range wars and Indian wars in the wide open spaces of the West. Gradually, the forces of law and order caught up with the lawbreakers, while the US army defeated the Plains Indians. As homesteaders, hunters, miners and cattle ranchers flooded onto the Plains, they not only came into conflict with the Plains Indians who already lived there, but also with each other.

As a "bad" badman, a threat to the moral order, the Kid had to die so that civilization-repre sented by Sheriff Pat Garrett-could advance. This formula of conflict and resolution by death can be detected in dime novels and early magazine accounts, which dwell on the Kid's unheroic appearance and bloodthirsty char acter. After a period of meager interest, by the mid-1920s a quite different figure was being molded by biographers and film makers. This was the prototypical "good" badman, one who personifies a kind of idealism. In Walter Noble Burns's key biography in 1926 and in a 1930 film, the Kid becomes a redeemer who helps small farmers.

NORMAN K Denzin Sacagawea's Nickname1, Or the Sacagawea
NORMAN K DENZIN Sacagawea’s Nickname1, or The Sacagawea Problem The tropical emotion that has created a legendary Sacajawea awaits study...Few others have had so much sentimental fantasy expended on them. A good many men who have written about her...have obviously fallen in love with her. Almost every woman who has written about her has become Sacajawea in her inner reverie (DeVoto, 195, p. 618; see also Waldo, 1978, p. xii). Anyway, what it all comes down to is this: the story of Sacagawea...can be told a lot of different ways (Allen, 1984, p. 4). Many millions of Native American women have lived and died...and yet, until quite recently, only two – Pocahantas and Sacagawea – have left even faint tracings of their personalities on history (McMurtry, 001, p. 155). PROLOGUE 1 THE CAMERA EYE (1) 2: Introduction: Voice 1: Narrator-as-Dramatist This essay3 is a co-performance text, a four-act play – with act one and four presented here – that builds on and extends the performance texts presented in Denzin (004, 005).4 “Sacagawea’s Nickname, or the Sacagawea Problem” enacts a critical cultural politics concerning Native American women and their presence in the Lewis and Clark Journals. It is another telling of how critical race theory and critical pedagogy meet popular history. The revisionist history at hand is the history of Sacagawea and the representation of Native American women in two cultural and symbolic landscapes: the expedition journals, and Montana’s most famous novel, A B Guthrie, Jr.’s mid-century novel (1947), Big Sky (Blew, 1988, p.

July 31, 2020 Chancellor Kevin Guskiewicz Via Electronic Delivery
July 31, 2020 Chancellor Kevin Guskiewicz Via electronic delivery Dear Chancellor Guskiewicz: On behalf of the Commission on History, Race, and a Way Forward, we write to follow up on the Board of Trustees’ July 29 meeting, specifically with regard to the interim decision to leave the name of Thomas Ruffin Jr. on Ruffin Residence Hall. New evidence has come to light, which does not appear in any published account of Klan violence during the Reconstruction era. It is in the form of newspaper stories and public correspondence that link Ruffin to a legislative grant of amnesty to Klansmen who were responsible for two political assassinations in Alamance and Caswell Counties. Both victims – one black, the other white – were Republican officeholders and civic leaders. A full report accompanies this letter as a supplement to materials submitted in support of our July 10 recommendation that the names of Charles Aycock, Julian Carr, Josephus Daniels, Thomas Ruffin, and Thomas Ruffin Jr. be removed from campus buildings. We believe that the information presented warrants an expedited review and removal of Thomas Ruffin Jr.’s name from Ruffin Residence Hall at the earliest possible date. This referral and the attached report were approved unanimously by commission members on July 30 in a poll conducted via e-mail. For the Commission, Patricia S. Parker James Leloudis Thomas Ruffin Jr. (1824 – 1889) This document supplements supporting materials that accompanied the July 10, 2020, recommendation from the Commission on History, Race, and a Way Forward that the names of Thomas Ruffin and Thomas Ruffin Jr. be removed from Ruffin Residence Hall.

Thoughts on the Crucifixion Edward A
The Linacre Quarterly Volume 55 | Number 2 Article 16 May 1988 Why Did He Die in Three Hours?: Thoughts on the Crucifixion Edward A. Brucker Follow this and additional works at: http://epublications.marquette.edu/lnq Recommended Citation Brucker, Edward A. (1988) "Why Did He Die in Three Hours?: Thoughts on the Crucifixion," The Linacre Quarterly: Vol. 55: No. 2, Article 16. Available at: http://epublications.marquette.edu/lnq/vol55/iss2/16 Why Did He Die in Three Hours? Thoughts on the Crucifixion Edward A. Brucker, M.D. Doctor Brucker has served as director of laboratories at several hospitals and has, for the past 18 years, been a deputy medical examiner for Pima County in Arizona. He has studied and given lectures on the Shroud of Turinfor the past 27 years. Many problems exist with our understanding of crucifixion looking backward approximately 2,000 years. We know Constantine abolished crucifixions about 337 A. D. so that there is no known personal experience since that time of individuals reporting on crucifixions. Two events which add to our knowledge, however, and give us some insight as to how crucifixion was performed and what happened to the individual would be the Shroud of Turin which is probably the most important, and secondly, in 1968 in a Jewish cemetery - Givat ha M ivtar - in which the bones of a crucified individual, Johanaham, were identified with the nail being transfixed through the ankle bone and with scrape marks being identified on the radius bone. Other than these two events, we are limited to what the ancient historians and writers had to say about crucifixion.

The Unauthorized Hagiography of Edward W. Hawkins
GOOD NIGHT, LADIES: THE UNAUTHORIZED HAGIOGRAPHY OF EDWARD W. HAWKINS A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the College of English Morehead State University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in English by William Randolph Dozier 3 May 1997 Accepted by the faculty of the Caudill College of Humanities, Mo r ehead State University, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Arts in English Degr ee . Master' s Committee : Date GOOD NIGHT , LADIES: THE UNAUTHORIZED HAGIOGRAPHY OF EDWARD W. HAWKINS William Randolph Dozier, M. A. Morehead State University , 1997 Director of Thesis: 100% appr opriated texts have been aligned to form an author -free narrative-whole of rising and falling action which details the hanging of the outlaw Edward W. Hawkins in Estill County, Kentucky, on 29 May 1857 . Spanning 140 year s, the various documents, news accounts , ballads, and excerpts reconstitute Hawkins, a creature of dream, myth, and histor y . Hawkins is a type of Byronic hero, and the narrative traces his evolution from wanted fugitive to condemned prisoner to redeemed sinner . The competing texts of this assemblage differ in tone and particulars, thus creating a dynamic tension that pushes the narrative forward. The "hagiography" is an assault on the authority of the text, sacred and profane , and its message is simple : words arise from words. Accepted by: 1 invocation Oh, young reader, suffer me to exhort you to read the following pages with care and attention; they may serve you as a beacon by which you may escape the wretched condition which I am now in--incarcerated in the walls of a dungeon, loaded with chains and fetters, with the grim images of my murdered fellow-men haunting me day and night; and soon, oh! very soon, to be taken to the gallows, and there, in the spring season of my life, to be hurled into the presence of an offended God, who cannot look upon sin with the least allowance.

FOOD: THE SIGNIFICANCE OF LAST MEAL RITUALS IN THE UNITED STATES SARAH L. GERWIG-MOORE1 Merceer University School of Law ANDREW DAVIES2 State University of New York at Albany SABRINA ATKINS3 Baker, Donelson, Bearman, Caldwell & Berkowitz P. C ABSTRACT Last meals are a resilient ritual accompanying executions in the United States. Yet states vary considerably in the ways they administer last meals. This paper ex- plores the recent decision in Texas to abolish the tradition altogether. It seeks to understand, through consultation of historical and contemporary sources, what the ritual signifies. We then go on to analyze execution procedures in all 35 of the states that allowed executions in 2010, and show that last meal allowances are paradoxically at their most expansive in states traditionally associated with high rates of capital punishment (Texas now being the exception to that rule.) We con- clude with a discussion of the implications of last meal policies, their connections to state cultures, and the role that the last meal ritual continues to play in contem- porary execution procedures.
