The Art of Books Bindings.Lib.Ua.Edu
Publishers’ Bindings Online, 1815-1930: The Art of Books bindings.lib.ua.edu Sample Lesson Plan: Slave Narratives Grades 5-12 Objectives: Using examples from the PBO bindings database, students will learn what slave narratives are, who wrote them, and their purposes. Materials: A computer with an Internet connection and a large screen or other capability to display the teacher’s actions to the entire class. Lesson Use of imported Africans and African Americans for slave labor began in the Jamestown colony of Virginia in the seventeenth century, and lasted until after the Civil War ended in 1865. The best way to learn about the experience of those who were held as slaves is to study their first-hand accounts. Many slaves who either had escaped or been freed published their stories during the nineteenth century. These stories became a distinct literary genre known as slave narratives. Prominent American colonists published popular autobiographies – or books about themselves – during the eighteenth century. About the same time, Puritans began writing the stories of Native Americans held in captivity. The first slave narratives, published in the late 1700s, had their roots in these two genres, but they had their own unique characteristics as well. The slave narrative developed as a genre during the nineteenth century for two reasons. The first was the support slaves received from the abolitionist – or anti-slavery – movement, which gained momentum beginning in the 1830s. The other is the romantic movement of American literature, which encouraged individualism, stressed emotional subjects, and often featured quests for American ideals, such as freedom. -

ABSTRACT In the mid-nineteenth century a compulsory education system was emerging that allowed all children to attend public schools in northern states. This dissertation investigates school attendance rates among African American children in New York State from 1850–1870 by examining household patterns and educational access for African American school-age children in three communities: Sandy Ground, Syracuse, and Watertown. These communities were selected because of their involvement in the Underground Railroad. I employed a combination of educational and social history methods, qualitative and quantitative. An analysis of federal census reports, state superintendent reports, city directories, area maps, and property records for the years 1820–1870 yielded comparative data on households, African American and European American, in which African American school-age children resided. The nature of schooling and the manner in which the household and community advocated for school attendance during this period are also described and compared. -

Becoming a Modern American Playwright: Examining Hansberry, Miller, and Edson Katie Bauer Lee High School INTRODUCTION I Grew
Becoming a Modern American Playwright: Examining Hansberry, Miller, and Edson Katie Bauer Lee High School INTRODUCTION I grew up in a small town in East Texas where everyone knew everyone else. I went to school with basically the same kids from kindergarten all the way to high school. Every once in a while, a new kid might move in or an old one might move out, but it certainly wasn’t a regular occurrence. There was the occasional fistfight and there was a ton of gossip (he said/she said), but for the most part, not much of anything seemed to go on around there. Most of us lived in two-parent households. My parents had divorced, but my grandparents lived with us, so that kind of made up for the absence of one. It seemed like everyone either lived on a good piece of land or if they didn’t, they knew someone who did. We spent much of our time roaming over pastures and exploring in the woods. Even in town, we were free to walk the streets, buying an ice cream at the local five and dime and then eating it on the courthouse steps. I never thought much of the freedom with which I lived in my younger years, never really appreciated the idyllic nature of what I was allowed and able to do . until recently. I teach drama in an inner-city high school in Houston. It has never ceased to amaze me the kinds of things my students reveal to me about their personal lives. -

Women's Leadership in Primetime Television an Introductory Study
Women’s Leadership in Primetime Television An Introductory Study Natalie Greene Spring 2009 General University Honors Capstone Advisor: Karen O’Connor Greene 1 Women’s Leadership in Prime-time Television: An Introductory Study Introduction When television executives report their core audience, women always come out ahead. A 2007 Nielsen Media Research report showed that, with only two exceptions, every broadcast network channel had more female viewers than men. ABC’s female audience almost doubled its male audience during the 2007-08 season (Atkinson, 2008). 1 Women onscreen, however, seem to reflect a different reality, making up only 43% of characters in the prime-time 2007-08 season (Lauzen, 2008). 2 As studies going back as far as the 1970s show, women on screen not only fail to represent the proportional makeup of women in society, they also overwhelmingly show a stereotypically gendered version of women (McNeil, 1975; Signorielli and Bacue, 1999; United States Commission on Civil Rights, 1977). This paper aims to address the evolution of women’s leadership in prime-time network scripted television from 1950 to 2008. Because of the way that women have been traditionally marginalized in television, it is important to study the shows that have featured women as lead characters. Characters such as Lucy Ricardo ( I Love Lucy, 1951-1960) influenced later female leads such as Ann Marie ( That Girl, 1966-1971), Mary Richards ( The Mary Tyler Moore Show, 1970-1977) and Murphy Brown ( Murphy Brown, 1988-1998). Thus, along with an introduction to socialization theory and feminist television criticism, this paper covers a selection of some of the most influential female characters and women-centered shows of this period. -

UNDERGROUND RAILOAD RESOURCES in the U.S. THEME STUDY Page 1 E. STATEMENT of HISTORIC CONTEXT: the UNDERGROUND RAILROAD in AMERI
NPS Form 10-900 USDI/NPS NRHP Registration Form (Rev. 8-86) OMB No. 1024-0018 UNDERGROUND RAILOAD RESOURCES IN THE U.S. THEME STUDY Page 1 United States Department of the Interior, National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Registration Form E. STATEMENT OF HISTORIC CONTEXT: THE UNDERGROUND RAILROAD IN AMERICAN HISTORY The primary purpose of this context is to assist in the identification of places associated with the Underground Railroad that are eligible for National Historic Landmark designation and for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. In 1990, the United States Congress authorized the National Park Service to conduct a study of the resources available nationally for the interpretation of the Underground Railroad. A special resource study published in 1995 determined that there were sufficient resources available and suggested a variety of approaches for commemoration of the Underground Railroad. Operating under the 1990 legislation, the National Park Service has produced educational materials and technical support for researchers. An Underground Railroad Handbook was published in February 1997, followed by “Exploring a Common Past: Researching the Underground Railroad.” This study provides historic context for the development of nominations for the Underground Railroad theme. Identifying historic properties associated with the Underground Railroad is an extremely varied task. To help the researcher understand the various aspects of the Underground Railroad, this context is divided into sections that focus on a complex but related series of historical activities and geographic regions, referred to generally as the Underground Railroad. The term is capitalized to signal inclusiveness in that larger organizing concept.
