  • John Powell: His Racial and Cultural Ideologies
    1 John Powell: His Racial and Cultural Ideologies DAVID Z. KUSHNER Following John Powell’s death on August 15, 1963, Virginias Dabney closed his editorial comments in the Richmond Times-Dispatch with the following encomium: “Mr. Powell’s passing at 80 removes one of the genuinely great Virginians of modern times. In personality and character he was truly exceptional, and as a pianist and composer he was unique in the annals of the Old Dominion.”1 Only a dozen years earlier, on November 5, 1951, the then Governor of Virginia, John S. Battle, proclaimed a “John Powell Day,” on which the National Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Howard Mitchell performed the composer’s Symphony in A major.1a The Governor went on to state that the state-wide tribute to Powell was only fitting owing to “his many contributions to the cultural life of America….”2 The irregularity of such an extravagant gesture toward a musician in this country had the effect of rejuvenating interest in the artist both within the borders of Virginia and beyond. The world of academia, for example, contributed three master’s theses and a doctoral dissertation3 between 1968 and 1973, and Radford College, now Radford University, named its new music building Powell Hall at dedication ceremonies held on May 13, 1968.4 By the 1950s and 1960s, Powell’s earlier involvement in contentious issues such as race relations in general, and the incorporation of racial and ethnic elements in the formation of an identifiably American music was conveniently forgotten or, at the least, placed on a back burner.

The Working Group met between June 30, 2020 and February 2021. We are pleased that you earlier accepted, and the Board of Visitors approved, the Working Group’s recommended Design Imperatives and Principles as well as two suggested renaming opportunities for campus buildings by passing two Resolutions during the September 2020 Board meeting. With those Resolutions, the Working Group continued to move forward to select additional naming and renaming possibilities per our charges. Consistent with your charge to submit to the Design Review Board (DRB), the following set of prioritized names (biographies included in Appendices) are recommended candidates for naming and renaming. The Working Group employed the Design Imperatives and Principles for Naming and Renaming when vetting names of individuals that had been presented to the Group. Within the timeframe available, the following prioritized names clearly were the most compelling. John Eastburn Boswell John Robert Lewis David M.
