DESCRIPTORS Bilingual Schools; *Cultural Maintenance; Cultural Pluralism; Elementary Secondary Education; Ethnic Relations; *Immigrants; *Mexican American Education; Mexican Americans; Multicultural Education; *Political Socialization; Politics of Education; Role of Education; *Social Integration IDENTIFIERS *California (Woodland); *Chicanos; Cultural Therapy; Empowerment; Ethnohistory ABSTRACT This pook is an ethnohistorical and ethnographic account of how several generations of Mexican immigrants became an integral part of the city of Woodland, California. These immigrants came to rural northern California as underclass agricultural workers, but, in the last 2 decades, have risen rapidly to political power through participation in the school board and various political, economic, and social institutions. A central tenet of the book is that the adjustment of immigrants depends largely upon their recognition of their own worth and potential contributions to American society. In this context, schoolL have special responsibilities: transmitting American cultural values that hold society together, and at the same time helping culturally diverse students pursue their own genuine ethnohistories. The success of Mexican Americans in Woodland is viewed as proof that the maintenance of the home language and culture produces strong Americans committed to a common good, the education of all. The chapters are: "The Dynamics of Cultural Transmission" (Henry T. Trueba); "Castification in Multicultural America" (Henry T. Trueba) ;"Woodland in Yolo County" (Yali Zou); "Chicanos in Politics: Learning to Participate and Organize" (Cirenio Rodriguez); "Political Gains of Chicano Community: Taking and Using Power" (Cirenio Rodriguez); "A School in Change: The Empowerment of Minority Teachers" (Jose Cintron); "Lessons Learned: The Healing of American Society" (Henry T. Trueba); "Cultural Therapy in Action" (Henry T. Trueba); and "Annotated References for Cultural Therapy" (Henry T. Trueba). An annotated bibliography contains 158 references on cultural therapy. This book contains references in each chapter, many data tables, photographs, and an index.

There are also many other persons, especially professors and inter- ationally recognized scholars whose written word and personal mentoring have impacted our research directly or indirectly. We want to thank George and Louise Spindler for their personal nurturing, their teaching and mentoring, and for their written word on cultural therapy which is central in this book. Our gratitudeto Paulo Freire for his message that generated in us and many others the commit- ment to pursue historical reflection, educational reform and social emancipation.

    Ascent Environmental Cultural Resources 3.5 CULTURAL RESOURCES This section analyzes and evaluates the potential impacts of the project on known and unknown cultural resources as a result of adoption and implementation of the proposed CLUO, including issuance of subsequent Cannabis Use Permits pursuant to the adopted CLUO. Cultural resources include districts, sites, buildings, structures, or objects generally older than 50 years and considered to be important to a culture, subculture, or community for scientific, traditional, religious, or other reasons. They include prehistoric resources, historic-era resources, and tribal cultural resources (the latter as defined by AB 52, Statutes of 2014, in PRC Section 21074). This section also analyzes archaeological, historical, and tribal cultural resources. Paleontological resources are discussed in Section 3.7, “Geology and Soils.” Archaeological resources are locations where human activity has measurably altered the earth or left deposits of prehistoric or historic-era physical remains (e.g., stone tools, bottles, former roads, house foundations). Historical (or architectural or built environment) resources include standing buildings (e.g., houses, barns, outbuildings, cabins), intact structures (e.g., dams, bridges, wells), or other remains of human’s alteration of the environment (e.g., foundation pads, remnants of rock walls). Tribal cultural resources were added as a distinct resource subject to review under CEQA, effective January 1, 2015, under AB 52. Tribal cultural resources are sites, features, places, cultural landscapes, sacred places, and objects with cultural value to a California Native American tribe that are either included or determined to be eligible for inclusion in the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR) or local registers of historical resources.

Vacaville S2 Investors LLC proposes construct a residential subdivision on approximately 220 acres of land plus three off-site culvert improvements near Vacaville in Solano County, California. The inventory included a records search, literature review, and field survey. The records search results indicated that three previous cultural resources studies have been conducted within the Project Area. As a result of those studies, one cultural resource has previously been recorded within the Project Area: P-48-1025, an abandoned segment of the Vaca Valley Railroad. As a result of the field survey, two cultural resources were recorded inside the Project Area: FAC-001, an historic-period portion of the Byrnes Canal; and FAC-004, an historic-period garage and foundation; ECORP evaluated P-48-1025, FAC-001, and FAC-004 for eligibility for the National Register of Historic Places and California Register of Historical Resources and found them not eligible under any criteria. There are no identified Historic Properties or Historical Resources in the project area.

    California On the Move 32nd Annual Conference of the California Council for the Promotion of History 18–20 October 2012 Woodland, California 1936 US99 drought North of Bakersfield—Dorthea Lange Welcome to Woodland! Join us in Woodland as CCPH explores California on the Move. Our state has always been a land of movement—from native peoples, to explorers and settlers, to promoters and exploiters. Shifts and changes in land and water, migration of flora and fauna, and waves of social movements have all shaped California, and the City of Woodland has been witness to much of this evolution. Welcome and thank you for coming along for the ride! The Historic Hotel Woodland was originally designed by prominent Bay Area architect W.H. Weeks in 1928. For decades, the hotel provided luxury accommodations to visitors and commercial businesses. In 1997, a group of local business people orchestrated the renovation of the landmark hotel, restoring its Spanish Colonial Revival Architecture through painstaking preservation, for which the group was awarded recognition from then Governor Pete Wilson for their steadfast commitment to Downtown Revitalization. The unique architecture, artwork, sculpture, alcoves, shaded patio and graceful fountain were meticulously preserved, returning the building to its original grandeur. A multitude of original, hand-painted wooden stencil designs adorn the ceilings and beams, as evidence to the 1,185 days and 7.5 million dollars spent on reconstruction and modernization. Hotel Woodland has been a favorite event venue for thousands of meetings and special events for more than a decade. We know you will enjoy the personality of Historic Hotel Woodland and its old-time elegance as the site of all our conference sessions.

  • John M. Rhodes' Sacramento City Bank & the Rhodes Expresses
    Western Express September, 2014 Hard Luck Enterprises - John M. Rhodes' Sacramento City Bank & The Rhodes Expresses By James Blaine AUTHOR’S PREFACE Ohioan John Milton Rhodes was a visionary individual who journeyed to California at the beginning of the Gold Rush, not to pan for or to dig the precious metal, but to found a bank which invariably came to be linked to the fruits of the miners who toiled to extract the riches from the region known as the "Northwestern Mines." While he never personally packed treasure-laden mules from the mines to the base towns, or distributed letters from home to anxious miners in "the diggins," John M. Rhodes' pioneer banking venture was the catalyst which eventually drew two of his brothers, James Mason Rhodes and George Washington Rhodes, as well as his uncle, Jesse Rhodes, to California. James or Uncle Jesse became the principals in the successive enterprises known as: 1) Rhodes & Lusk's Express; 2) Jas. M. Rhodes' Express / Rhodes & Co.'s Express; 3) Rhodes & Whitney's Express; and finally, 4) (Jesse) Rhodes & Co. 's Express. In the end, a cascade of events which, had they been compressed into a time-span of shorter duration could be termed "a perfect storm," overtook John M. Rhodes and his kinsmen, resulting in the demise of the last in the chain of the Rhodes Expresses, and the failure of the banking house which had nurtured them from their inception. Decades later, John recollected that: Figure 1. John M.

Twenty year old “Doc” came to California with his 12 year old kid brother Bill in 1850 on a cattle drive from southwest Missouri, indentured to Doc E.C. Lane. They came for the lure of gold, but finding little in Mud Springs (now named El Dorado), they ventured out to find land to farm and ranch, ending up in the Capay Valley and Hungry Hollow farmland north of the town of Capay in about 1853. Eventually, they were joined by 4 other siblings, all of whom settled in Yolo County, and through intermarriage with other early pioneers and their descendants, created a tangled web of cousins, mostly west of Woodland. The Duncan families of the Capay area would eventually own about 10,000 acres between them in and around the historic town of Capay, help build the schools and the railroad depots and make their way into the various histories written about this historic county. Doc Duncan’s daughter, Elvira Grey, would marry another pioneer descendant: James William Monroe of Buckeye near Winters, who would go on to be sheriff of the county for 28 years, followed by their eldest son, Forrest Duncan Monroe, between them serving 60 consecutive years as sheriff. The county jail is named Monroe Detention Center in their honor.

We know that civilizations rise and fall, that nations are born and then die, and that periods of repression follow eras of license; but usually it is difficult for us to see when the changes begin, to know what forces deflect the course of events.
