Hearing Moral Reform: Abolitionists and Slave Music, 1838-1870 by Karl Byrn A thesis submitted to Sonoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS III History Dr. Steve Estes r Z- /Li ,/zO rL Date Copyright 2012 By Karl Bym ii AUTHORIZATION FOR REPRODUCTION OF MASTER'S THESIS/PROJECT I grant permission for the reproduction ofparts ofthis thesis without further authorization from me, on the condition that the person or agency requesting reproduction absorb the cost and provide proper acknowledgement of authorship. Permission to reproduce this thesis in its entirety must be obtained from me. iii Hearing Moral Reform: Abolitionists and Slave Music, 1838-1870 Thesis by Karl Byrn ABSTRACT Purpose ofthe Study: The purpose of this study is to analyze commentary on slave music written by certain abolitionists during the American antebellum and Civil War periods. The analysis is not intended to follow existing scholarship regarding the origins and meanings of African-American music, but rather to treat this music commentary as a new source for understanding the abolitionist movement. By treating abolitionists' reports of slave music as records of their own culture, this study will identify larger intellectual and cultural currents that determined their listening conditions and reactions. Procedure: The primary sources involved in this study included journals, diaries, letters, articles, and books written before, during, and after the American Civil War. I found, in these sources, that the responses by abolitionists to the music of slaves and freedmen revealed complex ideologies and motivations driven by religious and reform traditions, antebellum musical cultures, and contemporary racial and social thinking.

The Spirit of the Living Creatures Was in the Wheels -- Ezekiel 1:21
The spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels -- Ezekiel 1:21 "Wheels Within Wheels deepens the musical experience created at Congregation Bet Haverim by lifting the veil between the ordinary and the sacred, so that our earthy expression of musical holiness connects with the celestial resonance of the universal. Like Ezekiel’s mystical vision, the spirals of harmonies, voices and instruments evoke contemplation, awe and celebration. At times Wheels Within Wheels will transport you to an intimate experience with your innermost self, and at other times it will convey a profound connection with the world around you." -- Rabbi Joshua Lesser THE MUSICIANS OF CONGREGATION BET HAVERIM Chorus Soprano: Nefesh Chaya, Sara Dardik, Julie Fishman, Nancy Gerber, Joy Goodman, Ellie McGraw, Theresa Prestwood, Rina Rosenberg, Faith Russler, Sandi Schein Alto: Jesse Harris Bathrick, Elke Davidson, Gayanne Geurin, Kim Goldsmith, Rebecca Green, Carrie Hausman, Alix Laing, Rebecca Leary Safon, AnnaLaura Scheer, Valerie Singer, Linda Weiskoff, Valerie Wolpe, McKenzie Wren Tenor: Ned Bridges, Brad Davidorf, Faye Dresner, Henry Farber, Alan Hymowitz, Lynne Norton Bass: Dan Arnold, Gregg Bedol, David Borthwick, Gary Falcon, Bill Laing, Bill Witherspoon, Howard Winer Band Will Robertson, guitar, keyboards; Natalie Stahl, clarinet, saxophone; Sarah Zaslaw, violin, viola; Reuben Haller, mandolin; Jordan Dayan, bass, electric bass; Mike Zimmerman, drum kit, percussion; Henry Farber and Gayanne Geurin, percussion; with Matthew Kaminski, accordion Strings Sarah Zaslaw and Benjamin Reiss, violin; David Borthwick, viola; Ruth Einstein, cello; Will Robertson, double bass Children’s Choir and CBH Community School Chorus director: Will Robertson Music director: Gayanne Geurin Thank You It takes a shul to raise a recording.

Elvisbrucefeaturefromstonepo
How an encounter that never happened might have helped to change history if it had By Shawn Poole Ever since he was a child, Bruce Springsteen has been strongly influenced by the artistry of Elvis Presley. Over the years, the “E Street”/”Elvis” connection has remained strong. Most recently, Springsteen participated along with E Street Band members Nils Lofgren and Patti Scialfa in the Elvis: Viva Las Vegas television special (now on DVD in the U.S., where it hit #1 on the Billboard DVD sales chart), and its accompanying soundtrack album. E Streeters Garry Tallent and Max Weinberg also were on hand at this year’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony to induct Elvis’ original drummer and bassist, D.J. Fontana and the late Bill Black. Presley was only forty-two years old when his life tragically ended. “They found him slumped up against the drain,” Bruce Springsteen would later sing of his fallen idol, “with a whole lot of trouble running through his veins; Bye-bye, Johnny; Johnny, bye-bye; You didn’t have to die; you didn’t have to die.” While Elvis’ premature decline and death did absolutely nothing to stop his immense cultural influence, it did rob the world of many more years of music from this great artist. It also ensured that Bruce Springsteen would never get another chance to meet the man who initially inspired his own musical career. (He had two chances: one famous unofficial chance when he jumped the wall at Graceland in 1976 and one not-as-famous in 1977 when local concert promoters offered Springsteen an official chance to meet Elvis backstage before his final Philadelphia concert.) But what if Bruce had gotten to meet Elvis before August 16, 1977? Might things have turned out any differently for either or both of them, as well as the many other lives they affected? In this work of speculative fiction, Shawn Poole ponders the possibilities, poignantly reminding us of the promise and potential that tragically disappeared in that long ago summer.

An American Tune: Refugee Children in U.S
AN AMERICAN TUNE: REFUGEE CHILDREN IN U.S. PUBLIC SCHOOLS By Daniel B. Weddle* Oh, we come on a ship they call the Mayflower We come on a ship that sailed the moon We come in the age's most uncertain hour And sing an American tune I. INTRODUCTION We are a nation of refugees. From the Pilgrims fleeing religious persecution to the Irish fleeing famine to the Syrians fleeing Assad, the history of America has been filled with waves of immigrants seeking sanctuary on our shores from persecution, famine, and sword. Generation after generation of Americans have absorbed refugees from all over the world into our national identity. The Pilgrims helped sow the seeds of the Great Migration of the 1630's in which thousands of Puritans and Separatists fled persecution inspired by King James I.2 Large migrations in the nineteenth century were often spawned by famine, most famously the Irish Potato Famine of the mid-nineteenth century,3 but also crop failures in Germany and other parts of the world. The end of the Nineteenth Century and the first half of the Twentieth saw numerous refugee migrations. Between 1880 and 1924, nearly three million Jews arrived in the United States, fleeing European persecution. Sadly, *Daniel B. Weddle is a clinical professor of law at the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Law, where he teaches constitutional law, education law, and higher education law, and directs the school's academic support efforts through the Law School Strategies Program. Many thanks to the editors and staff of the Kansas Journal of Law and Public Policy for their insights and editorial assistance in the preparation of this Article.

The Exploding Globe: Scale And Catastrophe In Contemporary Anglophone Literature Abstract This dissertation interrogates the interconnections between catastrophe and globality in contemporary fiction, arguing that “global Anglophone literature” has emerged as a field decisively marked by political and aesthetic engagement with transnational crisis. Ongoing scholarly debates have questioned global Anglophone literature’s utility as a critical framework and argued over what texts belong in its canon. But scholars have tended too readily to enfold the phenomenon of a “global” English literature within a paradigm borrowed from anti-globalization movements rather than consider the distinct and often resistant narratives of globality

ABSTRACT Paul Simon's Graceland and Its Social and Political
ABSTRACT Paul Simon's Graceland and its Social and Political Statements on Apartheid in South Africa Jonathan David Greer Mentor: Jean Ann Boyd, Ph.D. Paul Simon's Graceland album is one of the most controversial rock-and-roll albums in history because of its strong connection with South Africa during the apartheid. Simon's interest in South African music led him to record the album, which became a collaboration between South African popular music and American rock-and-roll music. Through the album, Simon makes a social statement, but because of the political issues within South Africa during the release of Graceland, many believe the album also makes a political statement. Graceland not only makes the strong social statement Simon intended, but also provides an important political statement on apartheid in South Africa.
