FOREWORD by Hon. Alfred E. Smith For centuries past men of the cloth have played rôles of incalculable importance in the history of the world. Their interest and expressions of interest have helped to shape not only religious destinies for their adherents, but have served as instruments in the molding and remolding of the political spheres in which they lived. In this modern day and age a religious man has come forward to cope with destiny in shaping the ends of world living. He has youth and spirit. He has righteousness in his heart and brilliance in his mind. He uses both to preach his gospel and he proves conclusively that the man of words is greater than the man of swords. Too often do we feel that men of the cloth have no drama in their lives. Too often do we make the mistake of thinking that men of the cloth belong only to the altar.

  • Of Gods and Men
    Mongrel Media Presents OF GODS AND MEN A Film by Xavier Beauvois (120 min., France, 2010) Distribution Publicity Bonne Smith 1028 Queen Street West Star PR Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M6J 1H6 Tel: 416-488-4436 Tel: 416-516-9775 Fax: 416-516-0651 Fax: 416-488-8438 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] www.mongrelmedia.com High res stills may be downloaded from http://www.mongrelmedia.com/press.html SYNOPSIS Eight French Christian monks live in harmony with their Muslim brothers in a monastery perched in the mountains of North Africa in the 1990s. When a crew of foreign workers is massacred by an Islamic fundamentalist group, fear sweeps though the region. The army offers them protection, but the monks refuse. Should they leave? Despite the growing menace in their midst, they slowly realize that they have no choice but to stay… come what may. This film is loosely based on the life of the Cistercian monks of Tibhirine in Algeria, from 1993 until their kidnapping in 1996. PREAMBLE In 1996 the kidnapping and murder of the seven French monks of Tibhirine was one of the culminating points of the violence and atrocities in Algeria resulting from the confrontation between the government and extremist terrorist groups that wanted to overthrow it. The disappearance of the monks – caught in a vice between both sides- had a great and long-lasting effect on the governments, religious communities and international public opinion. The identity of the murderers and the exact circumstances of the monks‟ deaths remain a mystery to this day.

  • Playing American: Race and Citizenship in American Theatre and Performance During the Great War, 1917-1919
    PLAYING AMERICAN: RACE AND CITIZENSHIP IN AMERICAN THEATRE AND PERFORMANCE DURING THE GREAT WAR, 1917-1919 BY MICHELLE SALERNO DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Theatre with a minor in European Union Studies in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2016 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Valleri Robinson, Chair Associate Professor Peter A. Davis Assistant Professor Sandra Ruiz Assistant Professor Joshua Chambers-Letson, Northwestern University ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the intersection of race and citizenship in American theatre and performance during US active engagement in the Great War through focusing on performances by and about German immigrants and African American soldiers. Quickly after President Woodrow Wilson requested a declaration of war against Germany, the American homefront became a site of coercive patriotism supported by an extreme nationalistic rhetoric. A vital aspect of military preparedness would be the conformity of opinion, political expression, and outward signs of loyalty. Those who could or would not fit into the newly defined narrow view of proper American citizenship expression found themselves in the dangerous position of being outsiders. Those of German descent and recent German immigrants were suspected of disloyalty. Through a racialized process of enemization, Germans lost their access to the safety and security provided by White privilege. The performances examined in this dissertation derive from this brief period where the construction of race, and in particular the instability of Whiteness, stands out precisely because Germans were now considered White. Wartime German enemy construction was created through the modes and means of American anti-Black racism connecting xenophobic suspicions with deep-rooted racial ideologies of White supremacy.
