Edwards Family 47 VoL 10 No. 2 AUTAUGA ANCESTRY Summer 2000 Greetings! What a wonderful experience it has been so far this year as president of the Au­ tauga Genealogical Society. As with most volunteer organizations, I am looking for those who wish to help behind the scenes. Everyone in the society holds a place of service. How? I'm glad you asked. 1. Call others to join us on the 3rd Sunday of the month. 2. Volunteer to help sort and file family histories submitted to the society. But one of the best ways to serve is to... 3. Join us. Yes, this is a tremendous service to others. Your experiences with dead-ends (is this the proper term when speaking of ancestors?) can help others know where to look. It can point others in the right or quite possibly a new direction. Your input is greatly needed to help those who may not know where that next resource is waiting. Re­ member, the first time YOU walked into the Archives. Joining us at the meetings is just like holding the hand of others who are searching and struggling for the next generation previously unknown. One thing to remember: the Autauga Genealogical Society can help you in other counties or states that might be searched. Many of the same records are available in other states and other counties. Some of our members have also researched libraries or places that many of us could not. This gives us each of us an insight to the holdings of these insti­ tutions that could be useful to all. Encourage those who are interested to join. There is something for all. In July, Mr. Dwayne Cox spoke on the holdings of the collection at Auburn Univer­ sity relating to the history of agriculture and rural life in Alabama. This wonderful presen­ tation Mr. Cox shared gave me a much broader knowledge of rural Alabama and the hard­ ships forgotten by this modern society; hardships that defined the strong detercnination of the southern culture. The jam session in August brought new ideas and new members to the meetings. September brought us Mr.Wayne Deloach speaking on Sidney Lanier, Autauga County, and the families related to Sidney Lanier. October will bring us Lee Bateman, a professional genealogist with a specialty in Southeast Alabama and Confederate History. Invite everyone you know, this will be another great program through the working of Joy Pace. Thank you, Joy! Looking forward to seeing you there! Allen Herrod President VoL 10 No. 2 A UTA UGA ANCESTRY Summer 2000 Editor's _ Notes Hi, This issue's cover photo is one that I purchased over E-Bay. It show an Autauga County couple in the early 1900s. The card the photo is mounted on reads "Martin & Anderson, Prattville." It was found in an old barn in Texas. If anyone recognizes the people, please let me know. Thanks again to Larry Caver for the 1900 obituaries and the Evergreen church records. Larry has also agreed to lead our November 4, 2000 cemetery tour. If you have family who lived in north central Autauga County you won't want to miss this event. The Edwards family group sheet was sent in by new member, Steven Edwards. Please send your family files to include in the Ancestry.

  • Welcome to Our First ACTJAM Big Sing!
    Welcome to our first ACTJAM Big Sing! This fall we looked at the history of racism in our country from different perspectives. Four hundred years of history in the book Stamped. A closeup of the civil rights movement and Jim Crow south of 1961 in the movie Hidden Figures. Now we turn to Black music and the stories told through song about the struggle for freedom and of hope. Since we can’t be together in person, we’re doing the next best thing -- a do-it-yourself BIG SING. It’s like a do-it-yourself walking tour of a city. There’s a map and a route. There’s a description to read about each sight. Finally, there’s a ticket to get you inside. Amy will be our guide through this Big Sing. She’s chosen the songs, mapped our route and written a short description of each selection. After you’ve read it, click on the YouTube link(s) to listen to the recording that Amy selected. That’s your ticket ‘in’ to the song. If it’s familiar –sing along! Hello Bethel! I’m so honored to lead this tour of Black music and its influence on music and culture in the U.S. First, a bit of history. When slaves were brought to our shores starting in 1619, they brought with them their spiritualities and religions. Once here, they mixed their African musical inspirations with the stories of Jesus and his Jewish ancestors, especially the stories of Israel’s struggles, enslavement and freedom in the promised land.

  • Cultural Appropriation and the Limits of Identity: a Case for Multiple Humanity (Ies)1 Michael Onyebuchi Eze
    Cultural Appropriation and the Limits of Identity: A Case for Multiple Humanity (ies)1 Michael Onyebuchi Eze Introduction In late April 2018, a controversy erupted in the social media after an American high school student, Keziah Daum posted her high school graduation pictures on twitter. She was wearing a Chinese Cheongsam. She was heavily criticized by the Chinese diaspora community in the social media and was condemned for a mindless appropriation of a Chinese cultural outfit. A twitter handle, @Jeremy2 Lam bitterly complained, “my culture is not your god***prom dress.” @gGavo Dude accused her of living a clueless and meaningless life, “what is the theme of your life? Ignorant? (sic).” The most ostentatious criticism came from Jeannie @JeannieBeannie99: “This isn’t ok. I wouldn’t wear traditional Korean, Japanese or any other traditional dress and I’m Asian. I wouldn’t wear traditional Irish or Swedish or Greek dress either. There is a lot of history behind these clothes. Sad.” These criticisms which range from benign outrage of cultural insensitivity to a more serious charge of cultural imperialism and mostly came from Chinese diaspora community. A few days later, social media reaction from mainland China showed a stark difference from the diaspora outrage. In fact, by May 1, an editorial in the Wenxue City News praised and applauded the student’s creative adaptation of a Chinese cultural artefact. Amid mostly positive reactions and outpouring of support, a reader commented, “very elegant and beautiful! Really don’t understand the people who are against her, they are wrong!” The reader even recommended that Chinese government, state media and fashion industry extend her an invitation to visit China for cultural display.
