The Longest Walk was a spiri- tual pilgrimage . It grew out of the concern of Indian people for anti - Indian legislation currently before Congress . It developed into a spiritua l awakening for many Native people, and provided th e opportunity to break down barriers to better under- standings among Native people as well as othe r people of this country . The Longest Walk was also a historical walk of Native people to commemorate all the forced removals an d marches of native peopl e from their lands . Forced removals have killed thousands of native people who were driven lik e sheep . Our roots are deep i n the lands where we live .

  • Alternative Energy Coalition Records Finding
    Special Collections and University Archives : University Libraries Alternative Energy Coalition Records 1960-1981 (Bulk: 1976-1980) 8 boxes (12 linear ft.) Call no.: MS 586 Collection overview A product of the vibrant, progressive political culture of western Massachusetts during the early 1970s, the Alternative Energy Coalition played a key role in the growth of antinuclear activism. In 1974, the AEC helped mobilize support for Sam Lovejoy after he sabotaged a weather tower erected by Northeast Utilities in Montague, Mass., in preparation for a proposed nuclear power plant, and they helped organize the drive for a referendum opposing not only the proposed plant in Montague, but existing plants in Rowe, Mass., and Vernon, Vt. Forming extensive connections with other antinuclear organizations, the AEC also became one of the organizations that united in 1976 to form the Clamshell Alliance, which made an art of mass civil disobedience. The AEC Records provide insight into grassroots activism of the 1970s and 1980s, galvanized by the seemingly unrestrained growth of the nuclear power industry. The records, emanating from the Hampshire County branch, contain both research materials used by the AEC and organizational and promotional materials produced by them, including publications, minutes of meetings, correspondence, and materials used during protests. Of particular interest are a thick suite of organizational and other information pertaining to the occupation of the Seabrook (N.H.) nuclear power plant in 1979 and minutes, notes, and other materials relating to the founding and early days of the Clamshell Alliance. The collection is closely related to the Antinuclear Collection (MS 547). See similar SCUA collections: Alternative energy Antinuclear Famous Long Ago Massachusetts (West) Peace Political activism Background on Alternative Energy Coalition On Washington's Birthday in 1974, a local organic farmer and member of the Montague Farm commune, Sam Lovejoy, committed an act of civil disobedience.

  • ROBERT WILLIAMS Political Legitimacy and the Dynamics of Anti-Nuclear Protest in America
    EnterText 6.3 ROBERT WILLIAMS Political Legitimacy and the Dynamics of Anti-Nuclear Protest in America I. PROLOGUE 1. Political legitimacy is a useful concept, not only for political and social philosophers, but also for social scientists. Recent events happening in the USA—for example, the 2000 Presidential election and the George W. Bush administration’s policies leading to the Iraqi war—allow us to raise issues about legitimacy, or the justifications of a polity’s right to govern. In those events, and indeed for many others, legitimacy is often analysed in terms of procedural norms. Is the national government accountable, in a liberal-democratic sense, to the electorate? Such a question is implied in surveys of public opinion on President Bush’s policies in Iraq. Or take another question: how do we resolve conflicts between competing claims to equal protection? That question was faced by the US Supreme Court when it was deciding the case, Bush v. Gore.1 For some political commentators, the American polity is legitimate to the extent that it judiciously upholds procedural norms like due process and equal protection. 2. Yet I contend that the concept of political legitimacy is not, and should not, be only about procedural norms. This paper examines a way to theorise the implications for political legitimacy Robert Williams: Anti-Nuclear Protest in America 111 EnterText 6.3 which arise from popular protests against government policies. In brief, the paper provides a critically framed concept of legitimacy and applies it to nuclear energy policy in America. Nuclear energy itself had not captured much public attention before September 2001 (certainly not compared to the attention atomic power had received in previous decades).

  • Trends in the History of Environmental Politics and Policy in the Mid-Atlantic Region
    “Typically american”: Trends in The hisTory of environmenTal poliTics and policy in The mid-aTlanTic region James Longhurst ursuing a regional approach to history puts twenty-first-century Phistorians in the strange position of unconsciously echoing their nineteenth-century predecessors, though with differing goals. When historian Frederick Jackson Turner pronounced the Mid-Atlantic region “typically American,” he was of course intent upon divining an elusive national character, not currently a goal of historians. But Turner’s frontier thesis emphasized geography and region in a way that would still be recognizable to environmental historians today. For example, Turner’s observa- tions concerning the Mid-Atlantic region hinged upon the physi- cal geography of place, property ownership, and use of land. He noted that the Mid-Atlantic was a doorway for emigrants from all of Europe, who “entered by New York harbor” and were then intermixed; that the residents were “rooted in material prosper- ity” based on the land; and that the region, “with no barriers to shut out its frontiers from its settled regions, and with a system of connecting waterways,” was uniquely situated as a mechanism for the admixture of peoples. In this way, the Mid-Atlantic served pennsylvania history: a journal of mid-atlantic studies, vol. 79, no. 4, 2012.
