  • ONE HUNDRED YEARS of PEACE: Memory and Rhetoric on the United States/ Canadian Border, 1920-1933
    ONE HUNDRED YEARS OF PEACE: Memory and Rhetoric on the United States/ Canadian Border, 1920-1933 Paul Kuenker, Ph.D. Student, School of Historical, Philosophical and Religious Studies, Arizona State University In the fall of 2010, artists Annie Han and Daniel Mihalyo of the Seattle- based Lead Pencil Studio installed their newest sculpture adjacent to the border crossing station located at Blaine, Washington and Surrey, British Columbia on the U.S./Canadian border. Funded by the U.S. General Services Administration’s Art in Architecture program as part of its renovation of the border crossing station, Han and Mihalyo’s Non-Sign II consists of a large rectangular absence created by an intricate web of stainless steel rods (Figure 1). The sculpture evokes the many billboards that dot the highway near the border, yet this “permanent aperture between nations,” as Mihalyo refers to it, frames only empty space. According to Mihalyo, the sculpture plays on the idea of a billboard in order to “reinforce your attention back to the landscape and the atmosphere, the thing that the two nations share in common.”1 Though it may or may not have been their intention, the artists ofNon- Sign II placed the work in a location where it is easily juxtaposed with a border monument from a different era—a concrete archway situated on the boundary between the United States and Canada. Designed by prominent road-builder and Pacific Highway Association President Samuel Hill, the Peace Arch was formally dedicated at a grand ceremony held on September 6, 1921, to celebrate over one hundred years of peace between the United States, Great Britain and Canada since the 1814 Treaty of Ghent (Figure 2).

  • PAUL ROBESON at BLAINE Singing for Freedom at the Peace Arch by Robert H
    WashingtonHistory.org PAUL ROBESON AT BLAINE Singing for Freedom at the Peace Arch By Robert H. Keller Columbia Magazine, Winter 2005-06: Vol. 19, No. 4 Fifteen hundred people seemed to fill Peace Arch Park on a Sunday in May 2002. Yet it was a small turnout compared to the event these Canadians and Americans had come to commemorate—Paul Robeson’s first concert at Blaine on May 18, 1952—a gathering estimated at over 30,000. The 50th anniversary program included folksinger Ronnie Gilbert, the female vocalist of The Weavers, and the Total Experience Gospel Choir from Seattle. Over 50 unions sponsored the event, including the Canadian Labor Congress; the Washington, King County, and Whatcom County labor councils; the Canadian Auto Workers; the British Columbia Federation of Labor; and the International Longshoreman and Warehouseman’s Union and their Bellingham local. Even the 1952 piano was present. Actor Danny Glover delivered Robeson’s speech, pointing out how the famous performer’s message remained pertinent a half century later. At booths away from the stage contemporary left-wing political groups from Canada and the United States sold books and handed out leaflets—socialists, pacifists, communists, labor unions, pro-Palestinian Jews. Many elderly individuals could personally recall the rancid political climate of the early cold war years, a climate that crippled Robeson’s astonishing career and gave rise to four rallies on the border at Blaine, 1952 through 1955. Paul Leroy Robeson’s father, the Reverend William D. Robeson, was a Presbyterian minister who had been a runaway slave at age 15.
