    TATE STREET, THAT GREAT STREET: CULTURE, COMMUNITY, AND MEMORY IN GREENSBORO, NORTH CAROLINA by Ian Christian Pasquini A thesis submitted to the faculty of The University of North Carolina at Charlotte in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Charlotte 2015 Approved by: ____________________________ Dr. Aaron Shapiro ____________________________ Dr. John Cox ____________________________ Dr. Dan Dupre ii ©2015 Ian Pasquini ALL RIGHTS RESERVED iii ABSTRACT IAN CHRISTIAN PASQUINI. Tate Street, That Great Street: Culture, Community, and Memory in Greensboro, North Carolina (Under the direction of DR. AARON SHAPIRO) Tate Street represents a cultural center in Greensboro, North Carolina. This work outlines the varying social groups, organizations, and institutions that defined Tate Street’s cultural identity between 1960 and 1990. Tate’s venues and spaces acted as backdrops to the cultural shifts on Tate Street. Three venues act as subjects through which to research Tate Street. Through a collection of interviews, art, video, magazines, newspapers, and pictures, this work connects with historical memory to outline Tate’s local and national historical significance. The work connects with a historical documentary made up of interviews as well as primary source materials to engage with Tate’s historical actors. iv DEDICATION Engaging with Tate’s history required the dedication of a small village of interested parties. I would be remiss in not thanking Tate’s community at large – many people have offered both their time and energy to assisting this project and will remain unheralded. This work is a reflection of the strength of Tate’s community which has both inspired and welcomed my inquiries.
