  • Indigenous and Settler Violence During the Gilded Age and Progressive Era John R
    Indigenous and Settler Violence during the Gilded Age and Progressive Era John R. Legg, George Mason University The absence of Indigenous historical perspectives creates a lacuna in the historiography of the Gilded Age and Progressive Era. For the first eight years of the Journal of the Gilded Age and the Progressive Era, zero articles written about or by Native Americans can be found within its pages. By 2010, however, a roundtable of leading Gilded Age and Progressive Era scholars critically examined the reasons why “Native Americans often slipped out of national consciousness by the Gilded Age and Progressive Era.”1 By 2015, the Journal offered a special issue on the importance of Indigenous histories during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, a “period of tremendous violence perpetuated on Indigenous communities,” wrote the editors Boyd Cothran and C. Joseph Genetin-Pilawa.2 It is the observation of Indigenous histories on the periphery of Gilded Age and Progressive Era that inspires a reevaluation of the historiographical contributions that highlight Indigenous survival through the onslaught of settler colonial violence during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The purpose of this microsyllabus seeks to challenge these past historiographical omissions by re-centering works that delve into the inclusion of Indigenous perspectives and experience of settler colonial violence during the Gilded Age and Progressive Era. Ultimately, this microsyllabus helps us unravel two streams of historiographical themes: physical violence and structural violence. Violence does not always have to be physical, but can manifest in different forms: oppression, limiting people’s rights, their access to legal representation, their dehumanization through exclusion and segregation, as well as the production of memory.

  • The Politics of the Gilded Age
    Unit 3 Class Notes- The Gilded Age The Politics of the Gilded Age The term “Gilded Age” was coined by Mark Twain in 1873 to describe the era in America following the Civil War; an era that from the outside looked to be a fantastic growth of wealth, power, opportunity, and technology. But under its gilded (plated in gold) surface, the second half of the nineteenth century contained a rotten core. In politics, business, labor, technology, agriculture, our continued conflict with Native Americans, immigration, and urbanization, the “Gilded Age” brought out the best and worst of the American experiment. While our nation’s population continued to grow, its civic health did not keep pace. The Civil War and Reconstruction led to waste, extravagance, speculation, and graft. The power of politicians and their political parties grew in direct proportion to their corruption. The Emergence of Political Machines- As cities experienced rapid urbanization, they were hampered by inefficient government. Political parties organized a new power structure to coordinate activities in cities. *** British historian James Bryce described late nineteenth-century municipal government as “the one conspicuous failure of the United States.” Political machines were the organized structure that controlled the activities of a political party in a city. o City Boss: . Controlled the political party throughout the city . Controlled access to city jobs and business licenses Example: Roscoe Conkling, New York City o Built parks, sewer systems, and water works o Provided money for schools hospitals, and orphanages o Ward Boss: . Worked to secure the vote in all precincts in a district . Helped gain the vote of the poor by provided services and doing favors Focused help for immigrants to o Gain citizenship o Find housing o Get jobs o Local Precinct Workers: .

  • Mass Culture As an Effect of World War I
    Bella Jacoby Humanities 2014-15 Mrs. Tilley and Mr. Donnelly May 2015 Mass Culture as an Effect of World War I The 1920s are seen as a monumental decade in the cultural and social growth of the United States. The time was characterized by a devout commitment to celebration and enjoyment. This had been seen in eras before, especially after periods of economic growth and thriving. These post-success booms were typically characterized by an explosion of inventions, the dominance of Capitalism and the rise of corporations, and a growth in art and pop culture. Eras like these generally stimulate the growth of infrastructure and launch a nation forward into its next stage of progress. However, the 1920’s was different. It included all of these things, but alongside the celebration and progress was a distinct mass culture that emerged during the decade as a response to the psychological questions posed by World War I. Although this is often overlooked and hidden by the prosperity and frivolity of the decade, the war had a profound impact on the American psyche that would transform society. The evidence for the origins of this shift has been preserved through the new movement of Modernism in artwork and literature of the time, proving that the mass culture of America can be traced back to a crisis of purpose after World War I. This new culture, composed of art and music but also the boom of consumerism and materialism, would shape the next century of American life. The culture of the 1920s was characterized by a release of morals, an appreciation for wealth, and a growing feeling of connection within the nation.
