AUSTIN Advisor: Professor Herman L. Bennett This dissertation constructs a social and intellectual history of poor and working class African Americans in the interwar period in Washington, D.C. Although the advent of social history shifted scholarly emphasis onto the “ninety-nine percent,” many scholars have framed black history as the story of either the educated, uplifted and accomplished elite, or of a culturally depressed monolithic urban mass in need of the alleviation of structural obstacles to advancement.

  • THE DIGBY SCHOOL BUS DRIVERS STRIKE by M
    Digby School Bus Drivers’ Strike THE DIGBY SCHOOL BUS DRIVERS STRIKE By M. Earle and A. Thomson INTRODUCTION When the strike of the Digby school bus drivers, C.U.P.E. Local 1185, ended on the first of April 1983, the drivers had maintained their picket lines continuously for three years and eight months. This strike is now on record as the longest in Nova Scotian history. Although only twenty-five strikers were involved, the strike received considerable attention from the provincial and even the national media, because of the length of the strike, the bitter divisions it revealed and created in the Digby community, the court decisions finding the School Board guilty of unfair labour practices, and the weaknesses which were revealed in Nova Scotia's labour law. This analysis of the Digby strike will discuss briefly the significance of the legal decisions and comment on the effects of this long and well-publicized strike on the Nova Scotia trade union movement. More importantly, it will focus on the forces at work within the small community of Digby that created this strike, and on some of the changes this strike brought about. In particular, some explanation will be offered of what on the surface appears to be a mystery: how it could come about that these few striking drivers, with no local tradition of militancy and with very limited outside support, were able to persist in the strike for so long. Digby County is predominantly rural, not industrialized,1 and has little history of trade unionism or workers' militancy.

    Mount Rushmore: The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy Brian Asher Rosenwald Wynnewood, PA Master of Arts, University of Virginia, 2009 Bachelor of Arts, University of Pennsylvania, 2006 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Virginia August, 2015 !1 © Copyright 2015 by Brian Asher Rosenwald All Rights Reserved August 2015 !2 Acknowledgements I am deeply indebted to the many people without whom this project would not have been possible. First, a huge thank you to the more than two hundred and twenty five people from the radio and political worlds who graciously took time from their busy schedules to answer my questions. Some of them put up with repeated follow ups and nagging emails as I tried to develop an understanding of the business and its political implications. They allowed me to keep most things on the record, and provided me with an understanding that simply would not have been possible without their participation. When I began this project, I never imagined that I would interview anywhere near this many people, but now, almost five years later, I cannot imagine the project without the information gleaned from these invaluable interviews. I have been fortunate enough to receive fellowships from the Fox Leadership Program at the University of Pennsylvania and the Corcoran Department of History at the University of Virginia, which made it far easier to complete this dissertation. I am grateful to be a part of the Fox family, both because of the great work that the program does, but also because of the terrific people who work at Fox.

  • Bus Security
    Bus Security Every day in this country, school buses transport millions of students to and from school, athletic events and field trips. A violent incident transpiring on a school bus is a crisis scenario often overlooked by the majority of school districts. For too many schools, there’s the belief that an effective bus security plan just cannot be developed. The truth is simple — your school district must be proactive in your bus safety efforts by planning and practicing for the various emergencies that may occur on one of your school buses. Y N Bus Crisis Planning Develop bus crisis plans with school administration, your police and sheriffs departments, and local emergency medical responders. Your plan should address crises such as fires, weather emergencies, serious vehicle accidents, school evacuations, and hostage situations as well as terrorist activities. Your bus drivers, school administration, law enforcement, and emergency responders must train together. Everyone needs to know their role and how others will respond during a bus crisis. Ask your local law enforcement, SWAT teams, and emergency responders to periodically conduct emergency training exercises on your buses. Develop alternative bus evacuation routes from each of your schools, events, and facilities. Alternative evacuation routes may be used if roads are closed, blocked, damaged, or if there is a substantial amount of traffic congestion. Y N Bus Crisis Planning (continued) Make sure your district’s transportation manager, supervisors, and bus drivers are trained as to their role in your school district’s crisis prevention program. Be prepared to quickly mobilize your bus services for any incident when drivers are not normally scheduled.

  • Rhythms of Relation: Black Popular Music and Mobile Technologies
    Rhythms of Relation: Black Popular Music and Mobile Technologies Alexander G. Weheliye In this essay I focus on the singular performances of the interface between (black) subjectivity and informational technologies in popular music, ask- ing how these performances impact current definitions of the technologi- cal. After a brief examination of those aspects of mobile technologies that gesture beyond disembodied communication, I turn to the multifarious manifestations of techno-informational gadgets (especially cellular/mobile telephones) in contemporary R&B, a genre that is acutely concerned, both in content and form, with the conjuring of interiority, emotion, and affect. The genre’s emphasis on these aspects provides an occasion to analyze how technology thoroughly permeates spheres that are thought to represent the hallmarks of humanist hallucinations of humanity. I outline the extensive and intensive interdependence of contemporary (black) popular music and mobile technologies in order to ascertain how these sonic formations refract communication and embodiment and ask how this impacts rul- ing definitions of the technological. The first group of musical examples surveyed consists of recordings released between 1999 and 2001; the sec- ond set are recordings from years 2009–2010. Since ten years is almost an eternity in the constantly changing universes of popular music and mobile technologies, analyzing the sonic archives from two different historical moments allows me to stress the general co-dependence of mobiles and music without silencing the breaks that separate these “epochs.” Finally, I gloss a visual example that stages overlooked dimensions of mobile tech- nologies so as to amplify the rhythmic flow between the scopic and the sonic.
