  • U.S. Entry Into WWII and Changes in Dissention Attitude the Basics Time Required 2-3 Class Periods Subject Areas 11Th Grade Hist
    U.S. Entry into WWII and Changes in Dissention Attitude The Basics Time Required 2-3 class periods Subject Areas 11th Grade History (A.P.) The Great Depression and World War II, 1929-1945 Common Core Standards Addressed: Writing Standards for Literacy in History/Social Studies 6-12 Author Martha Graham (2004) The Lesson Introduction The songs “Ballad of October 16” and “What Are We Waitin’ On?” both sung by the folk group Almanac Singers, express opposite sentiments regarding war. “Ballad of October 16” was written in 1940 to protest FDR’s movement toward war. The passage of a conscription law in September 1940 was evidence to Communist Party members, which included many members of the Almanac Singers, that FDR was lying when he had vowed to stay out of the European war. As a result of this scathing criticism, FBI files were opened on Pete Seeger and Woody Guthrie and they were followed for decades. “What Are We Waitin’ On?” written in 1942, demonstrates an abrupt about-face that can be explained only in the context of the German invasion of the Soviet Union and the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Guiding Questions Why did the United States enter World War II? How would this decision affect the lives of American citizens? Learning Objectives 1. Students will describe the causes for dissention prior to US involvement in WWII. 2. Students will explain the causes for US entry into the war. 3. Students will synthesize the change in the attitudes in some dissenters during the war. Preparation Instructions Songs used in this lesson: “What Are We Waitin’ On?” “Ballad of October 16” “Citizen CIO” Songs used in lesson: • “Ballad of October 16” (1940) performed by Almanac Singers on That’s Why We’re Marching: World War II and the American Folk Song Movement, Smithsonian Folkways, 1996.

CW 463 supplement, Matusewitch, editor Pauline de Snoo, 2015 @ Eric Matusewitch 1 CW 463 supplement, Matusewitch, editor Pauline de Snoo, 2015 @ Eric Matusewitch 2 Preface This is the story of a unique musical family. The Matusewitch name was virtually synonymous with the concertina and accordion, two bellows instruments invented in the first third of the nineteenth century, for eight decades. My grandfather Gregory (1886-1939), the family patriarch, concertized extensively in Russia and Europe before moving the family to the United States in 1923, where he had a relatively brief but lively career. He appeared in major concert halls, the vaudeville circuit, early American radio broadcasts, and Jewish variety and fund-raising events. Boris (1918-1978), the younger of Gregory’s two sons, succeeded him as America’s leading concertinist and teacher of the instrument. Over the course of a rich and varied career, he performed at west coast nightclubs, gave annual concerts at Carnegie Recital Hall, was a featured soloist with orchestras, and teamed up with dancer Rod Strong in an innovative combination of music and dance.

  • 1 Populism in Spain: the Role of Ideational Change in Podemos. Margarita Gómez-Reino, UNED Iván Llamazares, University Of
    Populism in Spain: The Role of Ideational Change in Podemos. Margarita Gómez-Reino, UNED Iván Llamazares, University of Salamanca Ideational approaches have identified the necessary presence of three ideas in populist discourse: a morally Manichean cosmic struggle, a virtuous and homogeneous people, and a corrupt and self-serving elite (see Hawkins and Rovira Kaltwasser’s introduction to this volume). This set of ideas was conspicuously absent in Spanish party politics over the past forty years. The outburst of Podemos in 2014, however, introduced a new populist rhetoric exhibiting the key three components of the ideational definition of populism adopted in this volume. The political message of Podemos (We Can) was a cry for rupture and change directed against the economic and political establishment — la casta, in the language of the party. Populist ideas moved to center stage as Podemos attained, just two months after its official foundation, 8% of the votes in the 2014 European Parliament Elections. And in the general elections of December 2015 and June 2016, the electoral alliance built around Podemos attained 20.7 and 21.1% of the votes respectively, at very short distance from the Socialist Party. This chapter addresses the recent emergence of a populist political discourse in the Spanish context. It focuses on the factors that led some political activists to articulate a populist discourse in a country in which such a set of ideas had been missing since the transition to democracy in the 1970s. In this chapter, we seek to explain why, how and when a group of radical left activists came to adopt a populist political discourse to launch a new political party.

  • The Populism of Left in the Speech of Pablo Iglesias
    Revista de Comunicación de la SEECI, nº 49, 15 July 2019 - 15 November 2019, 141-158 RESEARCH http://doi.org/10.15198/seeci.2019.49.141-158 Received: 02/10/2018 --- Accepted: 22/02/2019 --- Published: 15/07/2019 THE POPULISM OF LEFT IN THE SPEECH OF PABLO IGLESIAS POPULISMO DE IZQUIERDAS EN EL DISCURSO DE PABLO IGLESIAS Rafael Barberá González1: Complutense University of Madrid. Spain. [email protected] Félix Martín del Fresno: Complutense University of Madrid. Spain. [email protected] ABSTRACT During recent years and increasingly, popular movements have originated in many countries around the world. One of the reasons may be, among many others, that society perceives that it receives poor and unethical management from its leaders. Given this boom that has had a remarkable echo in the European content, this paper seeks to find out if political leaders, such as Pablo Iglesias, in the Spanish case, have used populism as a discursive strategy to get votes. The characteristics of the so- called right-wing populism and the so-called left-wing populism will be analyzed to assess whether there are substantial differences between the two. In addition, we will mention the system in which populism best develops, democracy, although there is no consensus among authors who believe that it occurs in other environments. Finally, a reference to the evolution of populism in Spain will be made, followed by an analysis of some of Pablo Iglesias’ discourses. KEY WORDS: Democracy - Spain - populism – Pablo Iglesias - speech – votes. RESUMEN Durante los últimos años y de manera creciente, se han originado movimientos populares en numerosos países del mundo.

  • Folkways Records and the Ethics of Collecting: Some Personal Reflections1
    Labelle: Reflections on the Passing of Allan Kelly 110 Folkways Records and the Ethics of Collecting: Some Personal Reflections1 MICHAEL ASCH Abstract: In this article, anthropologist Michael Asch recounts fascinating histories surrounding the genesis of Folkways Records, focusing on aspects of diversity, selection, and ethics. He illus- trates the discussion by invoking pertinent anthropological and folklore paradigms. olkways Records and Service Corporation, unarguably the most unique Frecording company ever to exist, was founded in 1948 by my father, Moses Asch. In the 38 years of operation, between 1948 and 1986 when my father died, Folkways produced over 2100 albums, an average of more than one per week – a feat accomplished with a labour force that never exceeded a handful of people. Furthermore, he rarely took a record out of print, and then never for commercial reasons. It was a record catalogue of staggering diversity and eclecticism. To give you a sense of the breadth of this collection, here are just a few of the familiar names found on the label: Lead Belly, Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Phil Ochs, Jean Ritchie, Mary Lou Williams, Ella Jenkins, The Carter Family, Lucinda Williams, Janis Ian, Martin Luther King, Bertold Brecht, Margaret Mead, Langston Hughes, W. E. B. DuBois, and Bob Dylan (under the pseudonym Blind Boy Grunt). Significantly, Folkways also included a vast repertoire of lesser-known artists important to such genres as blues, bluegrass, old-time, and country, and contains many of the most iconic songs in the American

    NEWS FROM THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS MOUG/MLA 2010 The News from the Library of Congress this year includes reports from the major Library units concerned with music and sound recording materials: Music Division, National Audio-Visual Conservation Center/Packard Campus, the Policy and Standards Division, and the American Folklife Center. Reports from other Library units which may contain concerns of importance to the music library community (e.g., Copyright Office, Preservation Directorate, Technology Policy Directorate) may be found in the ALA Midwinter report on the Library’s website: http://www.loc.gov/ala/mw-2010-update.html MUSIC DIVISION --Reported by Sue Vita, Joe Bartl, Mark Horowitz, Karen Lund, and Steve Yusko Since the last MLA meeting in Chicago the Music Division made significant progress in pursuing its primary goal, which is to improve access, both on site and online, to its collections. This was the first year that the two Music Bibliographic Access teams were fully integrated into the Music Division, and the success of this move can be seen both in the numbers of materials now accessible, and in the breadth of cataloging and metadata projects completed and in progress. Ninety-three entries for special collections were added to the Performing Arts Encyclopedia (PAE), bringing the total to 296. More than 33,900 master digital files were added to the PAE, including four new special presentations. More than 12,000 collection items were cataloged. Metadata was created for 13 previously “hidden” collections. The RIPM project has resulted in 89,509 pages from 225 volumes of 45 periodical titles scanned, to be made available online in the Performing Arts Reading Room, and after 3 years, available on our web sites.
