    Anna Ahonen Narrator Lynn Laitala Interviewer December 9, 1975 LL: Lynn Laitala AA: Anna Ahonen LL: Approximately when did your mother's parents come to the United States? AA: In approximately 1870, because my mother was born in 1866, and assuming that grandmother was about twenty-two... She came to America when she was a very young girl, to Michigan with her family. So it would be earlier than 1870, maybe between 1860 and 1865. LL: And her family went to Michigan first? AA: Yes, that's where lot of the Finns came directly and that's where the Bachman family had settled. LL: Where did your... Let's see, your father... Your grandfather and your grandmother came to this country separately? AA: Yes. LL: And they met probably in Michigan? AA: They met in Michigan. I believe they did meet in Michigan. There were three of the Iljana brothers that came to America. LL: That's your grandfather? AA: Yes. And they separated. One went to San Francisco and got developed a fishing industry. And another one was out west and went to Alaska. And my grandfather settled in South Dakota in about 1880. LL: What were living conditions like where they settled? AA: They settled in South Dakota. The nearest town was Frederick. The larger town was Aberdeen. It was bare prairie without any wood or timber. They built a sod hut, first a one-room sod hut and the second sod hut by the time my mother was born had two rooms and a little lean- to for animals.

  • Race, Identity, and Belonging in Early Zimbabwean Nationalism(S), 1957-1965

    Race, Identity, and Belonging in Early Zimbabwean Nationalism(S), 1957-1965

    Race, Identity, and Belonging in Early Zimbabwean Nationalism(s), 1957-1965 Joshua Pritchard This thesis interrogates traditional understandings of race within Zimbabwean nationalism. It explores the interactions between socio-cultural identities and belonging in black African nationalist thinking and politics, and focuses on the formative decade between the emergence of mass African nationalist political parties in 1957 and the widespread adoption of an anti- white violent struggle in 1966. It reassesses the place of non-black individuals within African anti-settler movements. Using the chronological narrative provided by the experiences of marginal non-black supporters (including white, Asian, coloured, and Indian individuals), it argues that anti-colonial nationalist organisations during the pre-Liberation War period were heavily influenced by the competing racial theories and politics espoused by their elite leadership. It further argues that the imagined future Zimbabwean nations had a fluid and reflexive positioning of citizens based on racial identities that changed continuously. Finally, this thesis examines the construction of racial identities through the discourse used by black Zimbabweans and non-black migrants and citizens, and the relationships between these groups, to contend that race was an inexorable factor in determining belonging. Drawing upon archival sources created by non-black 'radical' participants and Zimbabwean nationalists, and oral interviews conducted during fieldwork in South Africa and Zimbabwe in 2015, the research is a revisionist approach to existing academic literature on Zimbabwean nationalism: in the words of Terence Ranger, it is not a nationalist history but a history of nationalism. It situates itself within multiple bodies of study, including conceptual nationalist and racial theory, the histories of marginal groups within African nationalist movements, and studies of citizenship and belonging.
