This book is the biography of Captain William James Howard (1829–January 1924), the last surviving member of the California State Rangers. Howard ranched west of Mariposa and joined the Rangers, a posse formed by Harry Love to stop bandit gangs in central California. Not mentioned in the book is that many of the bandit gangs were Californios who were driven out of the mines by Anglo miners or heavily taxed by the Foreign Miners’ Tax Act (even though they were U.S. Citizens). The original California Rangers should not be confused with contemporary groups with the same name. The book includes information about the Mariposa Battalion and discovery of Yosemite. It also has information about Galveston Island, Republic of Texas, where Howard grew up. • A review of this book is in California History magazine 8:83-84 (1928).

Broderick 284 Preface On account of information previously published in various books and contain historical records on file, there is no doubt that many readers will be ready to question some of the statements made about Savage, Murieta and the Indians. However, I am anxious that people should know the truth about things pertaining to the early days. Under the circumstances I beg to state that it is a true statement of affairs as I found them when there in my young days. W. J. Howard. July 17 1923 INTRODUCTION The history of every nation is fraught with instances of individual heroism, sacrifice, and adventure. Many pages of the great life-book of the American Republic are stained with the blood of martyrs and heroes. In the veins of the native American flows the same brave blood with which the nation was baptized in its infancy, and the Western march of civilization was accomplished only after incredible suffering and almost insurmountable obstacles had been overcome. As a fitting tribute to the memory of the thousands who blazed the trail, “Old Glory” proudly floats on the breezes from old New England to the golden shores of California. The early history of California was enacted long after the birth of the American Nation; there is no other State in the Union, however, whose history is so replete with tragedy, romance and real adventure. Not many old-time pioneers, men who actually took part in the shaping of this early history—in fact, only one or two, and these very advanced in years—still survive, thus making it difficult for one to take a story from them personally. One day in June, 1922, while sojourning in the scenic city of Portland, Oregon, I was invited to have tea in a quaint old-fashioned home near Portland Heights. Here it was my good fortune to meet one of California’s old pioneers, a wiry, aristocratic-looking, white-haired Soldier of Fortune, who was soon to celebrate his ninety-sixth birthday. The exceptionally interesting life of this old gentleman, and his early activities in the making of Western history, so impressed me that I was persuaded to undertake the compilation of this book. Then one day, after I had been working on it industriously for almost four years, I grew disheartened and threw the manuscript into the heap of “forgotten things.” A little later I heard from the California Historical Society that Mr.

I remember his care- ful and well-organized instructions with background information on the dances. I recall thinking that his fine teaching had to do with his knowledge of Kinetography Laban, which is an excellent tool to perceive and to analyze dancing movements, but also to describe movements to those of us who were not familiar with the dance forms.

  • Dancers: New Work by Borbála Kováts Dance in California: 150 Years of Innovation
    USF Home > Library Home > Thacher Gallery The University of San Francisco’s Thacher Gallery presents January 13—February 23, 2003 Hungarian collage artist Borbála Kováts explores dance through computer- generated textures and imagery alongside a San Francisco Performing Arts Library & Museum (SFPALM) photo history of California Dance. Please join us Thursday, February 20, from 3 to 5 p.m. for the Closing Reception featuring an improvisational dance performance by the USF Dance Program at 4 p.m. Co-sponsored by SFPALM, USF’s Visual and Performing Arts Department and Budapest, Hungary Cultural Immersion Program. Dancers: New Work by Borbála Kováts Dance in California: 150 Years of Innovation Dancers: New Work by Borbála Kováts Following studies in fine arts and experimentation with traditional graphic arts, I first turned to photocopying and then to digital techniques. In recent years, I have engaged in preparing computer prints and have found that digital techniques are suitable for more than transmitting and perfecting photographic images of everyday life. I now use the computer to search for a language of representation that is unique to the digital medium. In my work the role of technique is far wider ranging than transmitting or retouching images; with the aid of computerized tools, I create a new pictures within the machine itself. My compositions are mostly non-figurative and work to create an integrated pictorial unity using various digital graphic surfaces. Starting from digital photographs, scanned material, or my own drawings, I create new surfaces and shapes using the computer so that the original pictures lose their earlier meanings.

  • An Evening of Mixed Repertory Curator/Artistic Director Brandon Whited
    Community Celebration: An Evening Of Mixed Repertory Curator/Artistic Director Brandon Whited June 18, 2021 Center Stage Theater Director’s Note t is with great joy and pleasure that we welcome you back to the theater. It goes without saying that this has been an incredibly challenging year. While many industries have been effected by the pandemic in significant ways, the performing arts—and dance in particular—have endured devas- tating economic and structural ramifications. COVID’s impact on the arts has been widely un-addressed at the governmental level and it is due to the unshakeable support of arts advocates, donors, and community organizers that we are here today. For so many of us, the restrictions and limitations of the pandemic have also ushered in a lengthy period of separation, division and isolation. Through screens we worked to forge new connections, and reconnect with those who had drifted away from us. We created times to meet and “zoomed” all over the globe in an attempt to recreate the vital, human need for social interaction and community support. There is great power in community—holding the power of connection, cooperation, and under- standing. After so much time apart, it is that much more meaningful to join together tonight in order to celebrate the art form that kept so many of us going this past year. Tonight’s offerings represent many of the different aesthetics, genres and performance styles that illuminate the range and diversity with- in the field of dance. Representing many generations, cultural histories, creative points-of-view through both live and digital performances, the works featured tonight are an important step toward what will be a long process of the reemergence and rebuilding of our field.

  • Case Studies of Civic Participation Among Mexican Immigrants in Central Valley Communities
    Here to Stay: Case Studies of Civic Participation Among Mexican Immigrants In Central Valley Communities By Ed Kissam July 15, 2003 Research Team: Anna Garcia, Richard Mines, Holly Mines, Anna Rodriguez The Aguirre Group, 555 Airport Blvd., Burlingame, CA 94010 Acknowledgements Thanks should go first to Craig McGarvey, former Director of the Civic Culture program at the James Irvine Foundation, for making this research possible and for ongoing dialogue and insights as we moved along. Marty Campbell, the foundation’s Director of Evaluation, and Lande Ajose, our current Program Officer, have been engaged and collegial, throughout the project. I greatly appreciate their support. The project’s field research team interviewing Mexican immigrants in the Central Valley-- Anna Garcia, Ana Rodriguez, and Rick Mines--brought years of experience, insights, and energy to the project. Santiago Ventura introduced me to several Mixteco civic activists and helped with translation at key points. Special thanks are due to Holly Mines for a marvelous job preparing the profile of one of the civic activists in Chapter 7. The immigrant activists who appear in this report were generous with their time and patient in allowing us to ask them so many questions about their lives, their thoughts and their hopes. I am grateful for their insights and inspiration and hopeful that I adequately portrayed their perspectives. They are: Luis Magaña, Filemon Lopez, Polo Chavez, Jorge San Juan, Raquel Velasco, Gustavo Dominguez, Herlinda Gonzalez, and Gloria Hernandez. The stories and reflections of other insightful immigrant activists and community leaders also informed the current analysis although their experiences are not explicitly mentioned in this report.

  • Ballet and Modern Dance in the Construction of Modern México (1919-1940): an Overview 9
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Choreographing Politics, Dancing Modernity: Ballet and Modern Dance in the Construction of Modern México (1919-1940) A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Culture and Performance by Jose Luis Reynoso 2012 © Copyright by Jose Luis Reynoso 2012 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Choreographing Politics, Dancing Modernity: Ballet and Modern Dance in the Construction of Modern México (1919-1940) by Jose Luis Reynoso Doctor of Philosophy in Culture and Performance University of California, Los Angeles, 2012 Professor Susan Leigh Foster, Chair In this dissertation, I analyze the pivotal role that ballet and modern dance played in the construction of modern México during the development of its post-revolutionary history and culture from 1919 to 1940. In this doctoral research, I approach dance as a means of knowledge production that contributes to shaping the cultural contexts in which individual and collective identities are produced while perpetuating systems of sociopolitical and economic domination and/or offering alternatives to restructure unequal power relations. As an organizing principle, this dissertation presupposes that dances always enact, explicitly and/or implicitly, sets of political assumptions that affect the bodies that participate by dancing or by watching dance. In other words, I examine how dance represents race, class, gender, and sexuality; how corporeal ii difference is arranged in space; what does the dance say about human relations; and how subjectivity is constructed through dance training and performing on stage. I also consider whose worldview, values and interests are enacted on stage and thereby normalized beyond the stage.
