High/ Welcome to Kaleidoscope's super-special holiday skinny issue. It's like this: we also dig massive Xmas food orgies and insane New Year's parties and seeing friends we haven't seen in a year and tasting things we haven't tasted in a year and doing things we haven't done in a year, which is the reason this issue is thinner than usual. But we did try to do a good thing; we think you'll like this issue; at any rate, you're getting your money's worth, as usual, and the next issue will be back to a full twenty-four pages. Thanks to everyone who, in the past month or so, sent us greetings, cheer, food, money, dope, love and kindnesses. may you all have nothing but good dreams. And to those who are concerned about the future of Ka­ leidoscope: it's looking good, gang. Coming: in the next issue: pages and pages of good things you won't want to miss, plus a few things you may not dig all that much, but-goshl - you can't please all the people all the time.

  • Wisconsin Topic Ideas for National History Day Research
    Wisconsin Topic Ideas for National History Day Research General Topic Ideas for Students Interested in Exploring the History of Our State National History Day in Wisconsin Updated: Summer 2010 1 A Warning for All Researchers! What follows is a very GENERAL list of topic ideas for you to consider. This list is by no means complete or exhaustive of Wisconsin history. There are many, many more fantastic topics to consider! These topics are NOT THEME SPECIFIC. You will need to take a closer look at each potential topic and consider how it fits with the annual theme for NHD. This is a general list. All the topics listed in this book WILL NOT fit the annual theme. Selecting a topic from this list does not guarantee a WINNING PROJECT. Selecting a topic is just the first step. You will need to follow through with good research, a strong argument, and a clear presentation. Selecting a topic from this list isn’t the final step. Many of these topics need to be further NARROWED in order for them to be a suitable National History Day project. Why Choose a Wisconsin Topic? The National History Day program doesn’t have any requirements or give you any advantage in choosing a Wisconsin topic. Wisconsin history, however, is full of great ideas for your History Day project. It is easy to overlook the history right around us, but your National History Day project can help you to find these amazing local stories that helped shape your history! Armed with local resources and strong research, you can become an authority on your topic and your project could be more competitive than a topic that many other students across the state or nation could choose.

  • Daniel Berrigan SJ and the Conception of a Radical Theatre A
    Title: “This is Father Berrigan Speaking from the Underground”: Daniel Berrigan SJ and the Conception of a Radical Theatre Author Name: Benjamin Halligan Affiliation: University of Wolverhampton Postal address: Dr Benjamin Halligan Director of the Doctoral College Research Hub - MD150g, Harrison Learning Centre City Campus South, University of Wolverhampton Wulfruna Street, Wolverhampton WV1 1LY United Kingdom [email protected] 01902 322127 / 07825 871633 Abstract: The letter “Father Berrigan Speaks to the Actors from Underground” suggests the conception of a radical theatre, intended as a contribution to a cultural front against the US government during a time of the escalation of the war in Vietnam. The letter was prepared further to Berrigan’s dramatization of the trial in which he and fellow anti-war activists were arraigned for their public burning of draft cards in 1968. The play was The Trial of the Catonsville Nine and its production coincided with a period in which Berrigan, declining to submit to imprisonment, continued his ministry while a fugitive. Keywords: Daniel Berrigan, underground, Jesuit, Catonsville, anti-war, theatre, counterculture, spirituality, activism, Living Theatre. Biographical note: Dr Benjamin Halligan is Director of the Doctoral College of the University of Wolverhampton. Publications include Michael Reeves (Manchester UP, 2003), Desires for Reality: Radicalism and Revolution in Western European Film (Berghahn, 2016), and the co-edited collections Mark E.

Thompson Interviewer October 15, 1972 Saint Paul, Minnesota Margaret Thomson - MT Eleanor Otterness - EO Gloria Thompson - GT GT: Today is Sunday, October 15, 1972. My name is Gloria Thompson and I’m interviewing Margaret Thomson about the history of the Women’s International League [WIL] for Peace and Freedom for Minnesota and her activities within the WIL. This is for the Minnesota Historical Society. I’m just going to ask you a few questions about your background in general. I’d like to know if you’re from Minneapolis. MT: Well, practically. We came here when I was ten years old. GT: Where were you born? MT: Canton, Ohio. GT: When was that? MT: When was I born? You want me to tell my age? GT: Well, okay. How about your education? MT: I graduated from the University of Minnesota and I have an M.A. from Columbia Teacher’s College. GT: Did you teach for a few years? MT: Yes. I taught thirty-five years in Minneapolis. I was assistant principal at Minneapolis Vocational High School before I retired. GT: When did you first join the League? MT: Well, I’m quite sure I joined when it was first started and that would be in the 1920s. It was started in 1922. I’m sure I was a very early member; although, I wasn’t a charter member of it. It isn’t on the records, but I have a memory of a large group meeting that was on [unclear] that I think must have been a WIL meeting.

  • The Crooked Made Straight
    30 The Crooked Made Straight Review of Writing Straight with Crooked Lines: A Memoir By Jim Forest Maryknoll, NY: Orbis, 2020 vii + 326 pp. / $30.00 paper Reviewed by Gordon Oyer Though a successful biographer of Catholic resisters to war (including Thomas Merton as well as Dorothy Day and Daniel Berrigan), Jim Forest’s books, reminiscences and lectures have shared only pieces of his own significant immersion in that heady milieu. In Writing Straight with Crooked Lines, he now turns full focus on his own full life to assemble those pieces, expand beyond them, and gift us with a delightful and insightful memoir of that journey. Some pieces borrow from his prior writings, but most are fresh, and all blend nicely into a cohesive and engaging story. Good memoir/biography includes willingness to tackle the unflattering downs as well as the gratifying ups that knit together the complexities of any human’s life. Forest’s opening chapter, “Telling the Truth” – a caveat on memory’s fallibility – coupled with a title drawn from the Portuguese proverb “God writes straight with crooked lines,” shows that he aspires to score high on that particular scale. In this, and in most measures of story-telling, he succeeds. At least a couple core threads hold together the story Forest narrates through sixty-seven concise and fast-moving chapters. One thread, his life-long engagement to promote peace and reconciliation, is supported by themes of cultivating conscience for discernment and balancing acts of resistance with service in peace organizations. The other key thread – an ever-expanding spiritual awareness and commitment – reveals his innate attraction to aesthetic experience and beauty as a significant aspect of that spirituality.

  • Factories Spread Into the Study Area from Walker1s Point. the Size of Commercial Buildings Increased As the Demand for Office and Retail Space Grew
    factories spread into the study area from Walker1s Point. The size of commercial buildings increased as the demand for office and retail space grew. New possibilities in structure, materials, and style were explored. Exteriors became increasingly intricate, employing a variety of shapes and outlines. Rooflines became equally complex. Mirroring the new commercial wealth, buildings were enriched by elaborate ornamentation made of terra cotta, carved wood or stone, inlaid brickwork, and cast or stamped metal. The first architectural style to be employed for commercial buildings in the study area was the Italianate Style. Italianate Architects and builders in this period adopted a wide variety of architectural styles for places of business. Among these, the Italianate Style was most common in Milwaukee. The Italianate was the practical building style of the day. Italian design sources -- from the Renaissance as well as the late Romanesque of northern and southern Italy were used eclectically in the creation of commercial facades. This style has also been called Commercial Italianate, or in its later more elaborate form, Victorian Italianate. These buildings can be distinguished by their ornate treatment of windows, cornices and parapets. Pilasters, belt courses, and corbel tables add to the compartmentalized effect of the facades of masonry buildings. Buildings are crowned with bracketed cornices, sometimes with a pediment for added vertical emphasis. ¥37 From the 1870s into the 1880s, a number of Italianate stores, offices, and shops were constructed in the study area. Of the examples, 2220-22 South Kinnickinnic Avenue (MI 320-12a), and 2499 South Delaware Avenue (MI 360-18) are representative of the frame buildings of the 1870s and early 1880s.
