Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2005 To Harold Ashenfelter and Amul Desai Preface A crowded, red double-decker bus pulls into the depot and comes to a rest amidst swirling dust and smoke. Its passengers slowly alight and begin to disperse into the muggy evening air. I step down from the bus and look left and right, trying to get my bearings. This is only my second day in Bombay and my first to venture out of the old city center and into the Northern suburbs. I approach a small circle of bus drivers and ticket takers, all clad in loose-fitting brown shirts and pants. They point me in the direction of my destination, the JVPD grounds, and I join the ranks of people marching west along a dusty, narrowing road. Before long, we are met by a colorful procession of drummers and dancers honoring the goddess Durga through thundering music and vigorous dance. The procession is met with little more than a few indifferent glances by tired workers walking home after a long day and grueling commute.

The location is somewhere in Texas. The Black Men (ROY, BIG SID, BENJAMIN, DJANGO, PUDGY RALPH, FRANKLYN, and BLUEBERRY) are slaves just recently purchased at The Greenville Slave Auction in Greenville Mississippi. The White Hillbillies are two Slave Traders called, The SPECK BROTHERS (ACE and DICKY). One of the seven slaves is our hero DJANGO.... he's fourth in the leg iron line. We may or may not notice a tiny small "r" burned into his cheek ("r" for runaway), but we can't help but notice his back which has been SLASHED TO RIBBONS by Bull Whip Beatings. As the operatic Opening Theme Song plays, we see a MONTAGE of misery and pain, as Django and the Other Men are walked through blistering sun, pounding rain, and moved along by the end of a whip. Bare feet step on hard rock, and slosh through mud puddles. Leg Irons take the skin off ankles. DJANGO Walking in Leg Irons with his six Other Companions, walking across the blistering Texas panhandle .... remembering... thinking ... hating .... THE OPENING CREDIT SEQUENCE end.

  • Local Voters' Pamphlet
    WHATCOM COUNTY OFFICIAL LOCAL VOTERS’ PAMPHLET Primary Election - August 18, 2009 Published by the Whatcom County Auditor’s Office — www.whatcomcounty.us/auditor Dear Whatcom County Voter: I’ve heard the question, “Why should I vote in a Primary Election?” The answer is simple. You, the voter, have the power to nominate the most qualified candidate to move on to the General Election. The Local Voters’ Pamphlet provides information supplied by candidates to help you make this important decision. If you don’t vote, you may not prefer the choice of candidates that do move on to the General Election. Don’t leave your vote in someone else’s hands! The 2009 Local Voters’ Pamphlet brings a change to the candidate statement. For the first time Whatcom County candidates have been asked to provide their biography in addition to their statement. I believe this will provide you with a clearer understanding of the candidates that will be representing you in office. Exercise your power and vote in the Primary Election. Sincerely, Shirley Forslof Whatcom County Auditor Table of Contents To Vote Your Ballot ..................................3 Where Can I Deposit My Ballot? ...........6 Accessible Voting Unit .............................4 Voter Information ....................................7 Sample Ballot ............................................5 Candidates ...........................................8-15 Participating Jurisdictions: Port of Bellingham Commissioner District Nos. 1 and 2, Whatcom County Council At-Large, City of Bellingham Council Ward 6, City of Blaine Council Ward 2 Position 4, City of Ferndale Council Position 5, and City of Lynden Council Position 4.
