  • Mount Rushmore: a Tomb for Dead Ideas of American Greatness in June of 1927, Albert Burnley Bibb, Professor of Architecture at George Washington
    Caleb Rollins 1 Mount Rushmore: A Tomb for Dead Ideas of American Greatness In June of 1927, Albert Burnley Bibb, professor of architecture at George Washington University remarked in a plan for The National Church and Shrine of America, “[T]hrough all the long story of man’s mediaeval endeavor, the people have labored at times in bonds of more or less common faith and purpose building great temples of worship to the Lords of their Destiny, great tombs for their noble dead.”1 Bibb and his colleague Charles Mason Remey were advocating for the construction of a national place for American civil religion in Washington, D.C. that would include a place for worship and tombs to bury the great dead of the nation. Perhaps these two gentleman knew that over 1,500 miles away in the Black Hills of South Dakota, a group of intrepid Americans had just begun to make progress on their own construction of a shrine of America, Mount Rushmore. These Americans had gathered together behind a common purpose of building a symbol to the greatness of America, and were essentially participating in the human tradition of construction that Bibb presented. However, it is doubtful that the planners of this memorial knew that their sculpture would become not just a shrine for America, but also like the proposed National Church and Shrine a tomb – a tomb for the specific definitions of American greatness espoused by the crafters of Mt. Rushmore. In 1924 a small group of men initiated the development of the memorial of Mount Rushmore and would not finish this project until October of 1941.

My sisters and I were so used to packing up and hitting the road in the family station wagon (later a minivan), that our childhood trips blur together. Oftentimes we visited our paternal grandparents in Sidney, Nebraska, or our maternal grandparents in Lincoln, Nebraska. But on special occasions we would take lengthy road trips that ended with destinations in the Appalachian Mountains, the Gulf of Mexico, Yellowstone National Park, and Myrtle Beach. As an ―East River‖ South Dakotan, driving six hours west to visit the Black Hills was hardly as exciting as going to the beach.

  • South Dakota Women Writers and the Emergence of the Pioneer Heroine
    Copyright © 1983 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. South Dakota Women Writers and the Emergence of the Pioneer Heroine RUTH ANN ALEXANDER The white women who settled Dakota Territory in the 1870s and 1880s did not write novels. After the grueling work of making a home out of a dugout, a sod hut, or a tarpaper shanty and of feeding, clothing, and nurturing their families, they had neither time nor energy for such imaginative creation. If they filched a few moments from their labors to write anything, their literary expression took the form of letters, diaries, or journals.' This 1. Laura Bower Van Nuys, for instance, explains that her mother wrote letters in a "telegraphic style" because of the pressures of washing, cooking, and cleaning for her large family, She quotes from one of her mother's letters to her daughter: "I have just put the girls to bed Lulu is quite sick with a cold Nettie has one of her cry- ing spells and Rose is sick with sympathy with her Quinnie has a touch of sore throat and Squiz fell against the boiler and hurt her eyebrow but they will all be well in the morning and able to eat breakfast" (Laura Bower Van Nuys, The Family Band: From the Missouri to the Black Hills, 1881-1890, Pioneer Heritage Series, no. 5 [Lincoln: University of Nebraska Press, 1961|, p. 47). Copyright © 1983 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. 178 Soutk Dakota History source material has only recently been discovered and explored by scholars for the light it sheds on the settlement of the West,' and it is greatly modifying our interpretation of the western ex- perience, an interpretation that has heretofore focused on the ex- ploits of male figures — scouts, trappers, soldiers, traders, miners, cowboys, outlaws, and sodbusters.

  • The First Seventy Years
    Copyright © 1972 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. The South Dakota State Historical Society: The First Seventy Years SOCIETY EVALUATION COMMITTEE An Evaluation Committee was appointed for the purpose of making a candid survey of the South Dakota State Historical Society in terms of its achievements as well as its weaknesses. The committee examined the organizational and functional relationships of history organizations in neighboring and Missouri River states, the South Dakota statutes with respect to the powers and the responsibilities of the society, all pertinent records and reports relating to the quality of the performance of the society, and the proposed plan of tlie State Planning Agency for the establishment of a Department of Cultural Preservation. An opinion poll was conducted of society and nonsociety members throughout the state for their views on the effectiveness of the society. Random opinions were also solicited at history meetings in Madison, Rapid City, and Vermillion, and statements were obtained from past and present presidents and secretaries of the society. While there are no specific standards developed for performance measurements within the state government structure, it is feasible to compare the South Dakota State Historical Society's organization, functions, and effectiveness with those systems employed in other states. The committee took a new look at the society to examine what its future direction should be, how it could better serve the people of South Dakota, what tasks it should do that it does not now do, and what functions it now performs that could be performed better. The correspondence and the records used in tlie preparation of this report are on file in the office of the director of the South Dakota State Historical Society.

He had written Robinson a week earlier to warn him that he might not be looking his best.

  • Before Sitting Bull
    Copyright © 2010 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. KINGSLEY M. BRAY Before Sitting Bull Interpreting Hunkpapa Political History, 1750–1867 During the nineteenth century, the Hunkpapa people were the most warlike of the seven tribal divisions of the Teton Sioux, or Lakotas. Moving aggressively against their enemies, they early won a reputa- tion as resistors of the expansion of American trade and power on the Northern Great Plains. In their leader Sitting Bull, the Hunkpapas produced perhaps the single most iconic leader in the plains wars, a man deeply committed to repelling white intruders, retaining Lakota cultural verities, and resisting the imposition of the reservation system. In 1876, as the Great Sioux War convulsed the region, perhaps one- third of the Teton people gathered in the great summer encampment whose warriors went on to annihilate the Seventh United States Cav- alry command of Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer. While two-thirds of Lakotas had remained near their agencies on the Great Sioux Reservation, fully 70 percent of Hunkpapas answered the call of Sitting Bull at the Little Bighorn.1 A century or more of political history lay between the emergence of the Hunkpapas as an autonomous division and the seating of Sitting Bull as the Lakotas’ war leader in 1867. Probing the often fragmentary evidence of the Lakota past allows a reconstruction of the course of political events, revealing insights into the resistance that so marked Hunkpapa dealings with the United States and providing a glimpse of the last, most articulate and determined, upholder of the Hunkpapa tradition of isolationism.2 1.
