  • President 2016 Simon Westwood 1 Dear Old Silhillians It Seems Hardly Credible That I Am Writing This As My Year As OSA President Draws to a Close
    With the right kind of support, anything is possible. 0121 693 5000 | jerroms.co.uk “ T H E S I L H I L L I A N ” the magazine of the The Old Silhillians’ Association Limited (The Former Pupils of Solihull School) The Leonard Stevens Building Solihull School Warwick Road Solihull West Midlands B91 3DJ Telephone: 0121 703 2963 Email: [email protected] Website: www.silhillians.net ISSUE 67 NOVEMBER 2016 President 2016 Simon Westwood 1 Dear Old Silhillians It seems hardly credible that I am writing this as my year as OSA President draws to a close. It seems a mere matter of minutes since I was invested as President by John Loynton last December. I have been very privileged to have been invited to serve as President and I have taken as full a part as my circumstances would The President allow. In a few short weeks, I will be handing over the Presidential ‘gong’ to Johnny Dugdale. I am personally delighted that he will be taking the job. He is a hard-working and valuable member of the committee. I must pay tribute to the OSA Committee. I have known members of your Committee for many years, but I had not, hitherto, appreciated the exceptional commitment and talent that goes into the running of the Association. There have been some challenges this year and many people have worked very hard to meet those challenges. It is, perhaps, unfair to single out individuals, as all make great contributions. I must, however, mention those with whom I have had the greatest interaction.

Doctoral Committee ______________________________________ James J. Scheurich, Ph.D., Chair ______________________________________ Lasana Kazembe, Ph.D. May 14, 2020 ______________________________________ Henry Merrill, Ed.D. ______________________________________ Khaula Murtadha, Ph.D. ii DEDICATION First, I would like to dedicate this dissertation to my mother, Dorothy Jean Williams Duff and to my father, Myron C. Duff, Sr. They are no longer with us, but they impressed upon me the importance of furthering my education and the impact it can have on my future. Their pushing, insisting, encouraging, and supporting led me to this place in my life’s journey and it is fitting that my dissertation be dedicated to their memory. This dissertation is also dedicated to my grandparents, Rev. David A. Williams, Sr. and Margaret Ridley Williams who served as positive examples of manhood, womanhood, and a godly marriage. They are also no longer with us, but they taught me how to cultivate a love for Christ, to earnestly pursue a deep relationship with Him, to seek His will in all things, and to allow His Word to serve as the foundation for every aspect of my life. To my children, Antoine, Alyjah, Averee’, and Ahmaad, I dedicate this dissertation to you because you served as my personal motivators for completing this goal.

Please scroll down to view the document itself. Please refer to the repository record for this item for information to help you to cite it. Our policy information is available from the repository home page. Popular Religion, Culture and Politics in the Midlands, c. 1638-1646 Simon Charles Osborne Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Warwick Department of History February, 1993 Summary This thesis is a study of popular allegiance in five midland counties during the English Civil War, 1642- 1646. It considers the relationship between allegiance and popular religion and culture. It aims to provide a regional case study of popular reactions to the war, with particular reference to recent theories of allegiance, which have emphasised the role played by religion and culture. Although the approach is broadly chronological, religion and culture are discussed mainly in the first half of the thesis, and popular allegiance in the second. Chapter One surveys popular religion and culture in the region from c. 1603 to 1638. Chapter Two characterises popular politics on the eve of the Civil War. Chapter Three deals with popular religion and culture in the late 1630s and during the war. In particular, it considers whether or not distinct cultural regions had evolved by this time, and the nature and extent of popular puritanism and 'Anglicanism'.

At this date copyright is owned by the author. Signature ……………………………………….. Date ……………………………........................ Abstract This thesis provides an examination of the emergence and development of Sir Oswald Mosley’s British Union of Fascists in the Midlands between 1932 and 1940. It charts the fascist presence in four major cities: Birmingham, Stoke-on-Trent, Coventry and Leicester. The BUF is the largest and most important fascist movement to have ever existed in Britain. Mosleyite fascism in the Midlands as a region has never before been investigated and represents a significant gap in the historiography of British fascist studies. Alongside affording valuable insight into Mosleyite fascism at the regional level, the study will illuminate further understanding of the BUF nationally.

Keeping Hope Alive: One Woman—90,000 Lives Changed. (Somalia) The moving memoir of one brave woman who, along with her daughters, has kept 90,000 of her fellow citizens safe, healthy, and educated for over 20 years in Somalia. Dr. Hawa Abdi, "the Mother Teresa of Somalia" and Nobel Peace Prize nominee, is the founder of a massive camp for internally displaced people located a few miles from war-torn Mogadishu, Somalia. Since 1991, when the Somali government collapsed, famine struck, and aid groups fled, she has dedicated herself to providing help for people whose lives have been shattered by violence and poverty. She turned her 1300 acres of farmland into a camp that has numbered up to 90,000 displaced people, ignoring the clan lines that have often served to divide the country. She inspired her daughters, Deqo and Amina, to become doctors. Together, they have saved tens of thousands of lives in her hospital, while providing an education to hundreds of displaced children.

  • Hidden Voices” Project Introduces NYC Students to New Perspectives from LGBTQ+ History
    New NYCDOE “Hidden Voices” Project Introduces NYC Students to New Perspectives from LGBTQ+ History Museum of the City of New York’s Frederick A.O. Schwarz Education Center and partners authored stories from notable LGBTQ+ New Yorkers New York, NY (March 12, 2021)– Museum of the City of New York proudly announces that the Hidden Voices: LGBTQ+ Stories in United States History project is now available for New York City teachers. This curriculum supplement, the second volume in the Hidden Voices series, is the Museum’s latest collaboration with the NYC Department of Education, and features stories of individuals who are often “hidden” from the traditional historical record. Hidden Voices: LGBTQ+ Stories in United States History examines individuals who questioned and broke the normed expectations of gender and/or sexuality. The project helps students to find their own voice as they become analysts of the past and make connections between the past and the present. In development for two years, the LGBTQ+ curriculum represents a collaborative effort between the NYCDOE, multiple institutions, and scholars. Museum of the City of New York’s Frederick A.O. Schwarz Education Center contributed profiles from five New Yorkers, building on the Museum’s recent LGBTQ+focused exhibitions, including Activist New York, PRIDE, and Gay Gotham. “New York’s students are the city’s future, and that’s why we are thrilled to launch this engaging curriculum supplement which shines a light on groundbreaking figures who have too often been left out of the narrative,” said Whitney Donhauser, Ronay Menschel Director and President of the Museum of the City of New York.
