The year has been diffi cult with more people cut to part time with no benefi ts or they are out of a job which is even more diffi cult. You have responded to people who have no food, diapers, formula, laundry detergent, gas for their car, a bus pass and so much more. You help people move forward because you care! People have no resources, do not know what to do or where to go. They want to give up. YOU RESPOND! You give them HOPE! Moms who have lost daycare because of no funding available to help them, were able to continue work- ing and keep their children safe because of your support. Families who were evicted because dad was out of work, were able to start over and fi nd a place to live and get a job because of your great support. Teenagers walking with no purpose because they are homeless, found a safe haven because of your great support. THANK YOU for your great response to the needs of people of our Parish and in the Community, Know that you make a huge difference!

As of this writing the health-care “debate” continues apace, with Democrats still looking to sneak universal abortion coverage into congressional legislation and Republicans (along with a few honorable Demo- crats for Life) still looking to stop them. “I am finally scared of a White House administration,” declares Nat Hentoff—the Human Life Foundation’s 2005 Great Defender of Life who’s always been an equally great defender of liberty—in a syndicated column we reprint here (page 124). Hentoff, unlike some of his liberal brethren, wasn’t scared of declaring himself anti-abortion, which he did in a col- umn back in the 1980s.

Smith • Kathryn Jean Lopez Published by: The Human Life Foundation, Inc. New York, New York Vol. XXIX No.3 $7.00 a copy ABOUT THIS ISSUE ... ... the disconnect between hard-wired abortion elites and what an old Apple Computer ad campaign memorably called "the rest of us" is reaching grotesque proportions. A July 2 story in the Washington Times, for example, reported that "fifty-one percent ofwomen surveyed by the Center for the Advancement ofWomen [headed up by former Planned Parenthood president Faye Wattleton] said the gov­ ernment should prohibit abortion or limit it to extreme cases, such as rape, incest, or life-threatening complications" (my emphasis). But that didn't stop the New York Times from branding David Pryor, the pro-life attorney general of Alabama and Bush federal court nominee, an "extremist," whose views "fall far outside the political and legal mainstream" (July 23). To New York Times editors, and Senate Democrats now filibustering Pryor's nomination, "mainstream" means partial-birth abortion. How did it come to this? Long-time contributor (and political indepen­ dent) Mary Meehan reminds us that pro-lifers once held real power in the Demo­ cratic Party; they are not, she suggests, totally without blame for its having become the party of abortion ("Democrats for Life," page 63).

Ronald Reagan wasn't dead two days before the stem-cell vultures began cir­ cling the editorial pages and TV talk shows, insisting the world's most famous Alzheimer's victim would surely have embraced embryo-killing research and its promise of cures for just about all that ails us. This is nonsense, as William P. Clark, who was Reagan's national security advisor, pointed out in a New York TImes op-ed column on June 11. But it is nonsense on wings and even recent ad­ missions by scientists that Alzheimer's victims are unlikely to benefit from stem­ cell therapy haven't checked the latest "celebrity" offensive in the funding wars. Thank heavens for Eric Cohen and William Kristol, who've been making the case against embryonic stem-cell research and cloning in The Weekly Standard for years. Their recent essay, "The Politics of Bioethics" (page 7) is essential reading for understanding what the brave new world of so-called life-saving research is all about.

  • Strength in Numbers, Challenges in Diversity Legislative Trends and Power Sharing Among Hispanic Americans in Congress, 1977–2012
    Strength in Numbers, Challenges in Diversity legislative trends and power sharing among hispanic americans in congress, 1977–2012 When Congress debated new immigration legislation in 2006, Senator Mel Martinez of Florida was much in demand. If he was not speaking before an audience, Martinez was cornering his colleagues in the Capitol or talking to congressional staffers who were concerned about how the bill would affect them. “Hearing it from the guy behind the counter, they know the names of the bills, it’s what everyone is talking about in the Hispanic community,” he told a Miami reporter.1 The first Cuban American to serve in the U.S. Senate, Martinez immigrated to the United States in the 1960s. Part of a generation of Hispanic Americans that changed U.S. society and Congress’s legislative focus, Martinez and many of his Hispanic colleagues during this period were immigrants or the children of immigrants, and their congressional ambitions were shaped by their stories and their families’ stories. Martinez’s policy preferences were informed by his childhood and by the experiences and observations of other Hispanic Members.2 Since their constituents frequently struggled with English and with discrimination, these issues became central to Hispanic Members’ agendas. Other issues included the United States’ relationship with Cuba and the federal government’s relationship with its territories. But perhaps the most important topic of debate during the latter part of the 20th century was immigration. “There are those in the country who feel the country is ‘full,’” Martinez observed in 2006. “Had that been the prevailing view in the 1960s, I would not be here.”3 The Hispanic Americans who entered Congress between 1977 and 2012 represent the greatest increase in their ethnic group in congressional history.

  • Aspirational Eating: Class Anxiety and the Rise of Food in Popular Culture
    ASPIRATIONAL EATING: CLASS ANXIETY AND THE RISE OF FOOD IN POPULAR CULTURE by Stephanie Mariko Finn A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (American Culture) in The University of Michigan 2011 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Paul A. Anderson, Chair Professor Susan J. Douglas Professor Penny M. Von Eschen Professor Warren Belasco, University of Maryland-Baltimore County Shaka Freeman, “#4,” Michael Pollan or Michel Foucault? © S. M. Finn 2011 To my parents ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I owe a large debt of gratitude to all of the people who supported me in the writing of this dissertation. Paul Anderson first suggested to me that rather than leaving graduate school with the vague hope of becoming a sommelier, perhaps I should write a dissertation about the significance of wine in U.S. popular culture. His support for the project that grew out of that inquiry and my development as a scholar has far exceeded the obligations of an advisor or committee chair. Warren Belasco provided generous, thoughtful, extensive feedback on chapter drafts and conference presentations, as well as many kind words of encouragement along the way. Susan Douglas and Penny Von Eschen helped shape my thinking from the very beginning of my graduate coursework and have also given generously of their time and expertise. I hope this project does some credit to their collective efforts and brilliance. Marlene Moore provided invaluable assistance in navigating the institutional pathways of the Ph.D. process. In addition to her expertise and tireless work on behalf of all graduate students in American Culture, her deep compassion humanized what might have otherwise been a formidable bureaucratic gauntlet.
