  • Top of Page Interview Information--Different Title
    Regional Oral History Office University of California The Bancroft Library Berkeley, California Warren G. Gaines Rosie the Riveter World War II Home Front Oral History Project This interview series was funded in part by a contract with the National Park Service, and with the support of individual donors. Interview conducted by Sam Redman in 2012 Copyright © 2012 by The Regents of the University of California Since 1954 the Regional Oral History Office has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the nation. Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Warren G. Gaines, dated June 22, 2012. The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes.

    CSSD Chronicle State of Connecticut Judicial Branch Court Support Services Division Wednesday, March 13, 2013 Celebrating Black History Month Since 1976, every U.S. president has officially designated the month of February as Black History Month—an annual celebration that recogniz- es the achievements of black Americans and their central role in U.S. history. The origins of the event began with “Negro History Week,” the brainchild of noted historian Carter G. Woodson and other prominent African Americans. Each year, a theme is chosen for Black History Month. For 2013, it was At the Crossroads of Freedom and Equality: The Emancipation Proclamation and the March on Washington. The chosen theme ad- dressed two events with significant importance: In 1863, President Abraham Lincoln's deeply controversial Eman- Red velvet cake, made by APO II Kesheonia Courts, celebrating Black History Month cipation Proclamation was enacted, freeing all slaves in the United States.

In a February memo to CSSD staff, Executive Director Bill Carbone acknowledged the agency’s continuing ef- forts to recognize the “value and importance of different cultures in our society” and encouraged offices to take the time to observe Black History Month in various ways. Subsequently, there were many CSSD events across the state. This edition of the CSSD Chronicle highlights the celebrations in the Adult Probation Offices of Bridgeport, Stamford, Hartford, and Manchester. Bridgeport Adult Probation—The Bridgeport office has celebrated Black History Month celebration for the past 10 years.

  • Slave Women, County Courts and the Law in the United States South: a Comparative Perspective
    Slave women, county courts and the law in the United States South: a comparative perspective By: Loren Schweninger Schweninger, Loren. “Slave Women, County Courts, and the Law in the United States South: a Comparative Perspective,” European Review of History issue titled Citizenship and the State in Classical Antiquity and the Modern Americas 16 (June 2009), 383-399. DOI: 10.1080/13507480902916944 Made available courtesy of Taylor & Francis: http://www.informaworld.com/openurl?genre=journal&issn=1350-7486 ***Reprinted with permission.. No further reproduction is authorized without written permission from Taylor & Francis. This version of the document is not the version of record. Figures and/or pictures may be missing from this format of the document.*** Abstract This article provides an analysis of how slave women, during the period from the American Revolution to the Civil War, filed civil suits for their freedom in the county courts. The cases occurred primarily in the Upper South. It is argued in this article that it was only as property - being part of an estate, cited in an deed of indenture, freed in a last will and testament, being imported into a state against the law, living with their owners or their owners' knowledge in free territory - that slaves were permitted to file such suits; but when they did, they were often successful, in large measure due to talented lawyers. This article also compares the legal process of manumission in the United States South with emancipation in other slave societies in the Americas, suggesting that the experience in the United States was in many ways unique.

  • African Runaway Slaves in the Anglo-American Atlantic World, Vol
    African Runaway Slaves in the Anglo-American Atlantic World, Vol. I: North America edited with an introduction and notes by Douglas B. Chambers, Ph.D. Executive Director Igbo History Foundation, LLC ©2016 Table of Contents Introductory Note Chapter I: African Runaways in the Chesapeake Region, 1736-1836 Chapter II: African Runaways in the Carolina Lowcountry Region, 1732-1820 Chapter III: African Runaways in the Lower Mississippi Valley, 1801-1857 2 Introductory Note This compilation of African runaway slaves in North America contains information on 1,650 African-born slaves, of whom 663 (or about 40 percent) include a specific provenance, or named ethnicity (country, nation). The compilation is organized regionally rather than by the artificial political boundaries of particular states. The Chesapeake Region includes notices and advertisements from newspapers in Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina; the Carolina Lowcountry Region encompassed Georgia and South Carolina; and the Lower Mississippi Valley includes references to runaway Africans in published advertisements from Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas. Each region was dominated demographically by its largest slaveholding state, that is, Virginia, South Carolina, and Louisiana, respectively. Taken as a whole, this North American collection of runaway enslaved Africans spans from southern Maryland through eastern Texas, and from the colonial through the antebellum eras. From the 1730s right through the 1850s, Africans were a part of the American landscape of slavery. These records document 33 different named ‘kinds’ of Africans in North American slavery, and internal evidence clearly suggests that it was the masters, and whites in general, who learned these terms from the slaves, and from Africans in particular.
