Cline ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT DAVID P. CLINE: Revolution and Reconciliation: The Student Interracial Ministry, Liberal Protestantism, and the Civil Rights Movement, 1960-1970 (Under the direction of Jacquelyn Dowd Hall) The Student Interracial Ministry (SIM) was a seminary-based, nationally influential Protestant civil rights organization based in the Social Gospel and Student Christian Movement traditions. This dissertation uses SIM’s history to explore the role of liberal Protestants in the popular revolutions of the 1960s. Entirely student-led and always ecumenical in scope, SIM began in 1960 with the tactic of placing black assistant pastors in white churches and whites in black churches with the goal of achieving racial reconciliation. In its later years, before it disbanded in mid-1968, SIM moved away from church structures, engaging directly in political and economic movements, inner-city ministry and development projects, and college and seminary teaching. In each of these areas, SIM participants attempted to live out German theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer's exhortation to “bring the church into the world.” Revolution and Reconciliation demonstrates that the civil rights movement, in both its “classic” phase from the mid-1950s to the mid-1960s and its longer phase stretching over most of the twentieth century, was imbued with religious faith and its expression.

  • Juli Gatling Book | [email protected] Waiting and Burning Out
    Waiting and Burning Out: War Memory, Psychological Resilience, and Interwar Disillusionment Abstract This article examines interwar peace activism by focusing on the personal emotional process that provokes disillusionment. This study documents how peace aspirations collapsed for two activists during the Washington Naval Disarmament Conference and again at the start of the Second World War. The former destroyed their faith that peace could be obtained through international mediation while the latter prompted a rejection of all interwar peace organizations. This article argues that while war memory often prompted involvement in interwar peace movements, trauma decreased psychological resilience—effectively leaving individuals prone to disillusionment when faced with the political machinery of conflict negotiation. Keywords World War, Memory, Disillusionment, Gender, Peace Activism, Disarmament Trauma decreases resilience and increases the desire to avoid conflict. This article studies this process by following the narrative of two interwar peace activists as they shared their memory of the First World War, their hopes for peace and their eventual rejection of interwar peace organizations at the start of the Second World War. What a society remembers and what it forgets is a telling indicator and for the interwar generation memories of the First World War loomed large.1 It was a trauma that ran deep. For many, this trauma led to an intense commitment to establishing and maintaining a lasting peace. Private memory, especially in the interwar period, is much more difficult to uncover compared to the popular, public memory of events. This case study provides a rare glimpse into the private memory of the First World War—especially that of women.

In Her Wake: The Story of Alva Smith Vanderbilt Belmont by Raymond E. Spinzia . Factors which, in the mid 1840s, encouraged the establishment of estates on the South Shore of New York’s Long Island included: the comradery afforded by the Southside Sportsmen's Club, whose members were among the wealthiest individuals in the nation; the flat terrain, which made it ideally suited to horsemanship; and the sea breezes, which even today make it a sailor's paradise. The South Shore Gold Coast eventually extended from Babylon to Bayport. By and large, these estates were originally perceived as rustic hideaways for the rapidly increasing number of Manhattan and Brooklyn millionaires. Indeed, by the 1880s Long Island's South Shore was considered a chic place in which to vacation.1 William Kissam Vanderbilt Sr. was the most prominent of the South Shore millionaires and his wife, Alva, without doubt, was the most ambitious. Indeed it was Alva who propelled the Vanderbilt family into the rarefied air of society's famous “Four Hundred.” Alva Vanderbilt She was born on January 17, 1853, in Mobile, Alabama, to Murray Forbes Smith, a successful cotton broker, and Phoebe Desha Smith, the daughter of General and Tennessee Congressman Robert Desha. Her uncle was Kentucky's Governor Joseph Desha, from whom President Lyndon Baines Johnson could also trace his ancestry.2 A year or so prior to the outbreak of the Civil War, Alva's father moved his family to New York City.

It was launched in 1941 as an initiative of the Arts Department at Dartington Hall and funded by the trustees of Dartington Hall, who spent £19,000 on the study over its 6-year history. The Enquiry brought together artists, intellectuals, philanthropists, and arts professionals in specialist committees to examine the visual arts, music, drama, and documentary film. Three book-length studies were published: The Visual Arts (1946), The Factual Film (1947), and Music (1949). This article examines the history of the Arts Enquiry, its entanglement in the cultural politics of the period, and what it reveals about policy formation in the United Kingdom, as well as the historiography of cultural policy.

Modified in July 2010 for website publication at www.spinzialongislandestates.com Please cite as: Spinzia, Raymond E. “Michael Straight and the Cambridge Spy Ring.” The Freeholder 5 (Winter 2001): 3-5. Michael Straight and the Cambridge Spy Ring by Raymond E. Spinzia . Since the days of the Revolutionary-era Long Island Spy Ring the Island's North Shore families have had a long and, for the most part, distinguished association both officially and unofficially in diverse aspects of intelligence gathering. With one remarkable exception, this is especially true of the Island’s twentieth-century espionage agents whose participation in the nation’s intelligence organizations can be traced from World War I through the Cold War.1 During the early 1900s, three boys, August Heckscher II, Michael Straight, and James Lee, who grew up just miles apart in Old Westbury, Long Island, embarked on a most incredible journey through life wherein their paths would cross again as adults in a bizarre and ironic twist of fate in which Michael Straight would become a casualty of the Cold War. August Heckscher II was the son of Gustav Maurice and Frances Louise Vanderhoef Heckscher, whose estate Upland House was located in Old Westbury, and the grandson of August and Anna P. Atkins Heckscher [I], who resided at Wincoma in Huntington Bay. In 1936 the younger Heckscher graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Yale. He received his master's degree in political science from Harvard in 1939 and taught political science at Yale from 1939-1941.
