BOX 30008 • LANSING, MICHIGAN 48909 www.michigan.gov/mde • 833-633-5788 To: Lewis Cass ISD Board of Education From: ISD Name Committee • Julie Dye – Pokagon Tribal Representative • Skip Dyes – LCISD Board of Education Representative • David Fair – Dowagiac Community Representative • Brent Holcomb – LCISD Superintendent • Diane Schultz – LCISD Parent Representative • Tina Wimberley – LCISD Employee Representative RE: Recommendation the Question of Re-Naming the ISD After two meetings centered on the history of Lewis Cass, discussion was heard in opposition to and support for changing the name of the ISD. It was the consensus of the committee to recommend that the name of the ISD should be changed. This decision is based on a majority consensus of Lewis Cass’s role in the policy on the removal of Native Americans from their land and a unanimous consensus of his political position for southern states to continue with owning slaves. We do not intend to rewrite or change the significance of Lewis Cass in Michigan history. Rather this recommendation is meant to acknowledge the importance of the Native American and African American community in Cass County. Given the ISD’s role of providing educational services to all the children in Cass County, regardless of race, this change aligns with the ISD’s mission. Why Heritage Southwest Intermediate School District? The conversation for a new name centered on the history of Cass County. Initially, we focused on the natural aspects of the county and the reason people settled in this area of Michigan. Much of the area was unwooded prairie that lent itself to farming. Additionally, the lakes and rivers were important to life in the county. The areas of woods and wildlife were also essential to life. Ultimately, we were drawn back to the topic of the people who live in Cass County. In the early time of Michigan’s settlement, the region was home to resident Native Americans of the Potawatomi nation. The Pokagon Band is still a significant member of the Cass County community. White settlement came to the region by way of New England and the South. Southern Quakers were important in assisting in the establishment of land ownership for African Americans. Cass County proved to be a significant center for African Americans in Michigan pre-1860’s. A more recent community is people of Hispanic background who settled here due to the agriculture in the region. As one member of our group stated…..everyone has history. The consensus was “Heritage” best summed up the people and the natural history of the county. Heritage is our inheritance, what the past has given us, what we value, and what we choose to preserve for future generations. Heritage and associated memories give us a common language and insight that allows us to communicate on a deeper level with one another and how we show ourselves to the world outside our region. Heritage helps shape who we are. Our expression of this identity shows others what we value and prioritize. Heritage is a keystone to culture and helps shape our view of who we are. (credit to the Heritage Council of Ireland for helping to frame What is Heritage) Most evident is the directional aspect of “Southwest”, pointing to our ISD location in Michigan. Our goal was to try to respect the geographic names (county names and such) of ISD’s in Michigan. Our hope is the ISD will represent the best of the people and overall history of the county. .

  • “Nebraska Territory”
    3 – POPULAR SOVEREIGNTY “Nebraska Territory” By: Stephen Douglas Date: January 30, 1854 Explanation of the Source: While debating Abraham Lincoln, Stephen Douglas explains the principles of Popular Sovereignty (Self-Government) in the Compromise of 1850. “Upon the other point--that pertaining to the question of slavery in the Territories--it was the intention of the committee to be equally explicit. We took the principles established by the Compromise of 1850 as our guide, and intended to make each and every provision of the bill accord with those principles. Those measures established and rest upon the great principle of self-government--that the people should be allowed to decide the questions of their domestic institutions for themselves, subject only to such limitations and restrictions as are imposed by the Constitution of the United States, instead of having them determined by an arbitrary or geographical line… The leading feature of the Compromise of 1850 was congressional non-intervention as to slavery in the Territories; that the people of the Territories, and of all the States, were to be allowed to do as they pleased upon the subject of slavery, subject only to the provisions of the Constitution of the United States. That, sir, was the leading feature of the compromise measures of 1850. Those measures therefore, abandoned the idea of a geographical line as the boundary between free States and slave States; abandoned it because compelled to do it from an inability to maintain it; and in lieu of that substituted a great principle of self-government, which would allow the people to do as they thought proper.

    OFFICERS OF THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH OF THE GOVERNMENT [ 1 ] EXPLANATORY NOTE A Cabinet officer is not appointed for a fixed term and does not necessarily go out of office with the President who made the appointment. While it is customary to tender one’s resignation at the time a change of administration takes place, officers remain formally at the head of their department until a successor is appointed. Subordinates acting temporarily as heads of departments are not con- sidered Cabinet officers, and in the earlier period of the Nation’s history not all Cabinet officers were heads of executive departments. The names of all those exercising the duties and bearing the respon- sibilities of the executive departments, together with the period of service, are incorporated in the lists that follow. The dates immediately following the names of executive officers are those upon which commis- sions were issued, unless otherwise specifically noted. Where periods of time are indicated by dates as, for instance, March 4, 1793, to March 3, 1797, both such dates are included as portions of the time period. On occasions when there was a vacancy in the Vice Presidency, the President pro tem- pore is listed as the presiding officer of the Senate. The Twentieth Amendment to the Constitution (effective Oct. 15, 1933) changed the terms of the President and Vice President to end at noon on the 20th day of January and the terms of Senators and Representatives to end at noon on the 3d day of January when the terms of their successors shall begin.

  • The "Pennsylvania Origins of Popular Sovereignty
    The "Pennsylvania Origins of Popular Sovereignty HE introduction of the Wilmot Proviso in 1846, perhaps more than any other single action, broke the uneasy sectional Ttruce regarding slavery and began the process of party and sectional realignments which culminated in the Civil War. As the proviso's basic principle of free soil became the dominant issue of the campaign of 1848, national politicians were forced to come to grips with this question in a variety of ways.* Popular Sovereignty, the Democratic Party's solution to these issues in 1848, had its origins as an acceptable political concept in Vice President George M. Dallas' Qreat Speech ... Upon the Reading Topics of the T)ay> which he gave in Pittsburgh on September 18, 1847. Although Congressmen Caleb B. Smith of Indiana and Shelton F. Leake of Virginia had made earlier vague references to the people of a territory governing themselves, Dallas was the first major political figure to call for popular sovereignty.1 He had been a prominent figure in the Democratic Party in Pennsylvania and the nation since Andrew Jackson's first bid for the presidency. He had served as Mayor of Philadelphia (1828-1829), Federal District Attorney (1829-1831), United States Senator (1831-1833), Attorney General of Pennsylvania (1833-1835), Minister to Russia (1837- 1839), and as Vice President under James K. Polk. Clearly his endorsement of popular sovereignty was an important political sign. It appears to be more than coincidental that the Proviso and two of the three leading solutions to the problem of slavery in the territories—extension of the Missouri Compromise line to the Pacific Ocean and popular sovereignty—originated within the Keystone State.

  • William Clark, Black Hawk, and the Militarization of Indian Removal | the Confluence
    William Clark, Black Hawk, and the Militarization of Indian Removal BY JEFFREY SMITH 4 | The Confluence | Fall/Winter 2016–2017 When William Clark stepped off a steamboat at Jefferson Barracks, just below St. Louis, in September 1832, he figured he had finally won. Clark, Indian Commissioner for the region, took the Sauk chief Keokuk and his entourage to the barracks prison to visit the latest arrivals, Black Hawk and a half-dozen of his fellow leaders. Clark and Keokuk knew they were in the midst of a new era of relations between the native peoples and the expanding United States. All three leaders—William Clark, Keokuk, and Black Hawk—thought they were promoting the best interests of Native Americans, too. During the 1820s, Clark had come around to the view that proximity to whites was hindering the process of “civilization”—making the Indians in the white man’s image—and that clearly the Indians needed to relocate away from the corrupting influences of white society where they could grow and evolve—become “civilized”—at their own pace. American officials like Clark and Lewis Cass held that the federal government was obliged to provide everything needed to facilitate the process; Clark believed the By the time George Catlin painted this portrait, William move should come of mutual consent, whereby the Clark had been overseeing relations between western tribes and the United States government for almost a quarter of a Indians agreed to move and to an agreeable location. century.
