  • Whiteness and Civility: White Racial Attitudes in the Concho Valley, 1869-1930
    WHITENESS AND CIVILITY: WHITE RACIAL ATTITUDES IN THE CONCHO VALLEY, 1869-1930 A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the College of Graduate Studies of Angelo State University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree MASTER OF ARTS by MATTHEW SCOTT JOHNSTON August 2015 Major: History WHITENESS AND CIVILITY: WHITE RACIAL ATTITUDES IN THE CONCHO VALLEY, 1869-1930 by MATTHEW SCOTT JOHNSTON APPROVED: Dr. Jason Pierce, Ph. D. Dr. Kenneth Heinemann, Ph. D. Dr. Kanisorn Wongsrichanalai, Ph.D. Dr. Cheryl Stenmark, Ph.D August 2015 APPROVED: Dr. Susan E. Keith Dean of the College of Graduate Studies ABSTRACT Implicit in the ideology of White Supremacy is the idea of moral supremacy over non-white peoples. However, in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century whites consistently crossed the blurry, racialized line that defined them by what they were not. In the west-central Texas region of the Concho Valley, breaching law and order and social mores condemned some whites to lose degrees of whiteness in the eyes of their peers. Some whites appeared hypocritical in their rebuke of racial terrorism. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth century many white West Texans became guilty of the very lawless and violent attributes they generally applied to those of a different skin color, thus exposing the schizophrenic and ambiguous nature of the notion of white supremacy. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page ABSTRACT……………………………………………………………………………….....iii TABLE OF CONTENTS…......................................................................................................iv INTRODUCTION….................................................................................................................1 CHAPTER I.

  • West Texas Weather Modification Association
    TRANS-PECOS WEATHER MODIFICATION ASSOCIATION – BARSTOW/PECOS, TEXAS SEEDING REPORT – July 6, 2018 SYNOPTIC/MESOSCALE CONDITIONS: Upper high remains in place over the four corners region which will bring northeasterly winds aloft to the area. This will advect cooler upper level air and bring any shortwave activity right over our region. Meanwhile, strong easterly to southeasterly surface flow will continue to advect plentiful moisture into both the Concho Valley and Trans-Pecos. Without a surface feature, shower/storms will be dependent upon dynamical forcing only. Therefore, for today, it appears the best shot for showers/storms will be across the Concho Valley where shortwave activity is expected. The latest HRRR is not as aggressive as the WRF with at least isolated to scattered storms. Instead, it brings in a cluster of showers late this morning along with isolated showers and maybe a storm or two. However, the cluster it is showing is not currently developed which means the HRRR did not initiate well. I will stick with the WRF today and keep likely storm chances in the forecast. LIFTING MECHANISM: Strong Moisture Advection THERMODYNAMIC INDICES (12Z KMAF) Freezing Level (m) 4851 -15°C Height (m) 7520 Precipitable Water (inches) 1.30 CAPE (J/Kg) 35 LCL 1357 CINH (J/Kg) 44 CCL 2455 LI(°C) 0.7 MAF ICA -2.68 PB 1 Cloud Base (meters) 2834 DRT ICA -5.24 Warm Cloud Depth (meters) 1783 Cloud Base Temp (°C) 13 DISCUSSION: A ridge running shortwave was moving westward into the Trans-Pecos from the Concho Valley and Permian Basin.

My own book, They Called Them Greasers (1983), paints just about every Anglo American who lived in nineteenth century Texas as a person with deeply ingrained racist attitudes ready to inflict violence on Tejanos.
