  • The Portrayal of Black Female Athletes in Children's Picturebooks
    Strides Toward Equality: The Portrayal of Black Female Athletes in Children’s Picturebooks Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Rebekah May Bruce, M.A. Graduate Program in Education: Teaching and Learning The Ohio State University 2018 Dissertation Committee: Michelle Ann Abate, Advisor Patricia Enciso Ruth Lowery Alia Dietsch Copyright by Rebekah May Bruce 2018 Abstract This dissertation examines nine narrative non-fiction picturebooks about Black American female athletes. Contextualized within the history of children’s literature and American sport as inequitable institutions, this project highlights texts that provide insights into the past and present dominant cultural perceptions of Black female athletes. I begin by discussing an eighteen-month ethnographic study conducted with racially minoritized middle school girls where participants analyzed picturebooks about Black female athletes. This chapter recognizes Black girls as readers and intellectuals, as well as highlights how this project serves as an example of a white scholar conducting crossover scholarship. Throughout the remaining chapters, I rely on cultural studies, critical race theory, visual theory, Black feminist theory, and Marxist theory to provide critical textual and visual analysis of the focal picturebooks. Applying these methodologies, I analyze the authors and illustrators’ representations of gender, race, and class. Chapter Two discusses the ways in which the portrayals of track star Wilma Rudolph in Wilma Unlimited and The Quickest Kid in Clarksville demonstrate shifting cultural understandings of Black female athletes. Chapter Three argues that Nothing but Trouble and Playing to Win draw on stereotypes of Black Americans as “deviant” in order to construe tennis player Althea Gibson as a “wild child.” Chapter Four discusses the role of family support in the representations of Alice Coachman in Queen of the Track and Touch the Sky.

Weinberger, not a defense technocrat, managed a massive defense buildup of 1.5 trillion dollars over a four year period. A biographical approach to Weinberger illuminates Reagan’s selection, for in many ways Weinberger harkens back to an earlier type of defense manager more akin to Elihu Root than Robert McNamara; more a man of letters than technocrat.

  • Presidential Handwriting File, 1981-1989
    PRESIDENTIAL HANDWRITING FILE: PRESIDENTIAL RECORDS: 1981-1989 – REAGAN LIBRARY COLLECTIONS This collection is available in whole for research use. Some folders may still have withdrawn material due to Freedom of Information Act restrictions. Most frequent withdrawn material is national security classified material, personal privacy, protection of the President, etc. PRESIDENTIAL HANDWRITING FILE: PRESIDENTIAL RECORDS: 1981-1989 The Presidential Handwriting File is an artificial collection created by the White House Office of Records Management (WHORM). The Presidential Handwriting File consists of a variety of documents that Ronald Reagan either annotated, edited, or wrote in his own hand. When documents containing the president's handwriting were received at WHORM for filing, the original was placed in the Presidential Handwriting File and arranged by the order received. A photocopy of the document was placed in the appropriate category of the WHORM: Subject File. The first page of the casefile was stamped Handwriting File, indicating the location of the original documents. However, WHORM often failed to indicate on the original documents the original location (i.e. the six digit tracking number, Subject Category Code). The Presidential Handwriting File, as created by the White House, did not contain handwriting found in staff and office files. The Library will be creating a further series of handwriting material from staff and office files. In order to provide better access to the Presidential Handwriting File, the collection has been arranged into six series. Each series is arranged chronologically by the date of the document. Each document has been marked with the appropriate WHORM: Subject File category and a six digit tracking number.

  • A Case Study Analysis of a Fan-Enacted Twitter Campaign
    Volume 6 2017 www.csscjournal.org ISSN 2167-1974 “#BringDickieVtoMurray”: A Case Study Analysis of a Fan-Enacted Twitter Campaign John S. W. Spinda Clemson University Abstract This case study examined how fans initiated and utilized the Twitter hashtag #BringDickieVtoMurray to successfully persuade ESPN and renowned college basketball broadcaster Dick Vitale to nationally broadcast a game at Murray State University, illustrating the potential for influencing media entities and media figures to action using Twitter. A thematic analysis of 514 tweets was conducted and revealed four themes: (a) use of persuasive tactics, (b) references to the hashtag itself, (c) links to points of attachment, and (d) basking in reflected glory. Furthermore, a series of semi-structured interviews were employed to provide additional context regarding the case. Keywords: Twitter; college basketball; social media; hashtags; sports Introduction During the 2011-2012 National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Men’s Basketball season, the Murray State Racers enjoyed extraordinary success, which included a 23-0 start to their season, a 23rd Ohio Valley Conference (OVC) championship, which ultimately culminated in a 31-2 final record after being defeated during the round of 32 teams at the 2012 NCAA men’s basketball tournament. In addition to the team’s success, Murray State received immense positive media coverage, much of which was channeled through social media channels, particularly Twitter and Facebook. Catherine Sivills, Assistant Vice-President for Communications at Murray State at the time, believed that the university gained at least $10 To cite this article Spinda, J. S. W.

The thought apparently was to highlight within an issue framework, not only the chaotic and contentious democratic contest, but to point out the insipid, petty and self-serving manner in which the debate has been conducted. The attack themes presumably were to be directed primarily at Mondale and Hart before the convention and at the nominee following the convention. The above described approach was discussed Thursday and Friday {5/31/84 & 6/1/84) during a meeting with myself, Ed Rollins, Lee Atwater and Jim Lake, and then myself and the Tuesday Team.

Before Katrina, there were Thomas Ashley overruns in the budget in the areas of defense, transportation, energy, agriculture, and Charles Bowsher veterans’ healthcare. Along with Katrina disaster relief efforts, costs could easily grow to Dan Crippen $250 billion beyond what is assumed in the current budget resolution. Richard Darman Cal Dooley There is a precedent for Congress passing a second budget for a year. For several years Willis Gradison following the establishment of the current budget process, it was standard procedure for William Gray, III Congress to pass a second budget resolution taking into account any newly passed Ted Halstead legislation and updated economic forecasts. This process ended in the 1980s, but Jim Jones procedures allowing Congress to pass a revised budget resolution are still in place.

  • From Dick Nixon to Joe Biden
    Fifty years of global economic From triumph and disappointment. Dick Nixon to Joe Biden ibrary bookshelves bend under the weight of tomes about Richard Nixon’s foreign policy. Jeffrey Garten’s splendid new book Three Days at Camp David nar- rates the rarely researched companion story of Nixon’s By Robert B. Zoellick major international economic initiative. In doing so, Garten encourages historians to consider the intrigu- ing parallels between Nixon’s security and economic transformations. Nixon was a war president from day one. His fate was to direct a retreat, La most dangerous maneuver. This withdrawal was more than tactical; Nixon believed that his strategic challenge was to reorder the international politics of power because of the relative decline of U.S. economic might. The president aimed to regain advantage through agile world leadership. In foreign policy, Nixon aspired to redraw the map of power as a new multi- polarity. In doing so, the president wanted to avoid a slide back to American isolationism. Nixon’s plan for a new international economy seemed less de- liberate. Nevertheless, Garten’s tale shows that Nixon attempted to rebalance global economic responsibilities and avoid the protectionism of the past. Nixon’s new foreign policy sought better relations with Moscow in order to prevent nuclear war and restrain Soviet expansionism.

  • NAFTA and the North American Future
    Prepared Remarks NAFTA and the North American Future Robert B. Zoellick, Peterson Institute for International Economics Prepared remarks delivered at the Baylor University conference “NAFTA in the Context of a Changing Global Economy” October 15, 2013 I appreciate the invitation to be with you this evening. The 20th anniversary of NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) offers an excellent opportunity to reflect on the accomplishments—and shortfalls—of this landmark accord, and also to press for the potential we have yet to reach. I’d like especially to compliment Professor Joseph McKinney and Baylor University for organizing this conference to discuss “NAFTA in the Context of a Changing Global Economy.” I’ve been urging the same approach: to think about the future of North America in a global context. Not surprisingly, most of the suggestions about North America are made by regional specialists—and especially by experts in Mexican-American relations. Their knowledge and ideas are invaluable. Yet I’d like to propose another perspective. My vision is of a strong and unique continent—comprised of two developed countries and a rising developing country—in a rapidly changing world economy. Consider the global weight of three democracies; of almost 500 million people; with energy- sufficiency and even exports; an integrated infrastructure system; complementary manufacturing and service industries; a shared effort to develop human capital—through educational innovation, linked to workforce skills, and pro-growth immigration policies; and a common outlook on our fundamental security and foreign policy interests. That North America would be well-positioned to contend with 1.3 billion Chinese—and other lands and peoples around the world.

WHO’S IN CHARGE? DOES THE PRESIDENT HAVE DIRECTIVE AUTHORITY OVER AGENCY REGULATORY DECISIONS? Robert V. Percival* Most regulatory statutes specify that agency heads rather than the President shall make regulatory decisions .1 Yet for more than four decades every President has established some program to require pre-decisional review and clearance of agency regulatory decisions, usually conducted by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).2 On January 18, 2011, President Barack Obama joined his seven predecessors in expressly endorsing regulatory review when he signed Executive Order 13,563.3 President Obama’s regulatory review program generally emulates those of his two most recent predecessors, relying on OMB’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) to review only the most significant agency rulemaking actions.4 Although this form of presidential oversight of rulemaking is now well established, an important, unresolved question is whether the President has the authority to dictate the substance of regulatory decisions entrusted by statute to agency heads.
