O Roosevelt had announced to a party of 18 persons assembled at luncheon in the White House a long-cherished plan to present to the United States his already vast accumulation of correspond- ence and other papers, documents, books, pamphlets, pictures, and objects of personal or historic interest. He proposed to place these collections in a building which should be erected at private cost, on a plot of land donated to the United States from the estate then owned by his mother, on the Albany Post Road about 5 miles north of Poughkeepsie, N. Y. At the same time he announced his expec- tation that the rest of the hundred acres or more between the Post Road and the Hudson River, on which the family residence was situated, would, as he expressed it, "eventually go to the Federal Government to be maintained for the benefit of the public." Both the intention and the expectation have been realized. The luncheon guests included, in addition to Judge Samuel I. Rosenman and Mr. Frank C. Walker, university presidents Ed- 1 This paper is based upon materials in the author's file, kept as chairman of the Executive Committee, which will be transferred to the National Archives in due time, and in a special file in the office of the Archivist of the United States. -

Yet several decades ago, few persons with disabilities saw their condition as an identity to be embraced, let alone to serve as the basis for affinity and collective mobilization. -

Otton: The Journey of FDR's Public Image as the Democratic Dictator THE JOURNEY OF FDR’S PUBLIC IMAGE AS THE DEMOCRATIC DICTATOR n BY ANDREW W. OTTON ranklin Delano Roosevelt’s (FDR) public image rose in his first Fterm, fell in his second, and rebounded in his third. The essen- tial focus of this paper is to examine how FDR portrayed himself to the public, as well as explain the tumultuous nature of his image over his three terms. This is significant, as other scholarship has overlooked this important part, leaving the understanding of FDR lacking. Other scholarship focuses mostly on policy and politics when concerned with FDR’s speeches, specifically the fireside chats, and the potential societal, economic, cultural, etc. impact the speech might have had. Davis Houck is a good exception to that. He has a discussion of FDR trying to insert the traits of a dictator into his pub- lic image, which one will discuss later.1 Even when looking at rhetoricians, many spend their time discussing the particular way FDR used language to be effectively persuasive. -

Available at: https://scholarship.law.umn.edu/lawineq/vol9/iss2/1 Minnesota Journal of Law & Inequality is published by the University of Minnesota Libraries Publishing. How "Sex" Got Into Title VII: Persistent Opportunism as a Maker of Public Policy Jo Freeman* The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was a milestone of federal legis- lation. Like much major legislation, it had "incubated" for decades but was birthed in turmoil. On June 19, 1963, after the civil rights movement of the fifties and early sixties had focused national at- tention on racial injustice, President John F. Kennedy sent a draft omnibus civil rights bill to the Congress.' On February 8, 1964, while the bill was being debated on the House floor, Rep. Howard W. Smith of Virginia, Chairman of the Rules Committee and staunch opponent of all civil rights legislation, rose up and offered a one-word amendment to Title VII, which prohibited employment discrimination. He proposed to add "sex" to the bill in order "to prevent discrimination against another minority group, the women . "2 This stimulated several hours of humorous debate, later en- shrined as "Ladies Day in the House," 3 before the amendment was passed by a teller vote of 168 to 133. -

Fight for the Right: the Quest for Republican Identity in the Postwar Period
FIGHT FOR THE RIGHT: THE QUEST FOR REPUBLICAN IDENTITY IN THE POSTWAR PERIOD By MICHAEL D. BOWEN A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2006 Copyright 2006 by Michael D. Bowen ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project is the culmination of many years of hard work and dedication, but it would not have been possible without assistance and support from a number of individuals along the way. First and foremost, I have to thank God and my parents for all that they have done for me since before I arrived at the University of Florida. Dr. Brian Ward, whose admiration for West Ham United is only surpassed by his love for the band Gov’t Mule, was everything I could have asked for in an advisor. Dr. Charles Montgomery pushed and prodded me to turn this project from a narrow study of the GOP to a work that advances our understanding of postwar America. Dr. Robert Zieger was a judicious editor whose suggestions greatly improved my writing at every step of the way. Drs. George Esenwein and Daniel Smith gave very helpful criticism in the later stages of the project and helped make the dissertation more accessible. I would also like to thank my fellow graduate students in the Department of History, especially the rest of “Brian Ward’s Claret and Blue Army,” for helping make the basement of Keene-Flint into a collegial place and improving my scholarship through debate and discussion. -

THE ELAINE RIOT OF 1919: RACE, CLASS, AND LABOR IN THE ARKANSAS DELTA by Steven Anthony A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History at The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee May 2019 ABSTRACT THE ELAINE RIOT OF 1919: RACE, CLASS, AND LABOR IN THE ARKANSAS DELTA by Steven Anthony The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2019 Under the Supervision of Professor Gregory Carter This dissertation examines the racially motivated mob dominated violence that took place during the autumn of 1919 in rural Phillips County, Arkansas nearby Elaine. The efforts of white planters to supplant the loss of enslaved labor due to the abolition of American slavery played a crucial role in re-making the southern agrarian economy in the early twentieth century. My research explores how the conspicuous features of sharecropping, tenant farming, peonage, or other variations of debt servitude became a means for the re-enslavement of African Americans in the Arkansas Delta.
