May 2016 This project has been financed in part with funds provided by the State of Minnesota from the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund through the Minnesota Historical Society. Saint Paul African American Historic and Cultural Context ABSTRACT Saint Paul’s African American community is long established—rooted, yet dynamic. From their beginnings, Blacks in Minnesota have had tremendous impact on the state’s economy, culture, and political development. Although there has been an African American presence in Saint Paul for more than 150 years, adequate research has not been completed to account for and protect sites with significance to the community. One of the objectives outlined in the City of Saint Paul’s 2009 Historic Preservation Plan is the development of historic contexts “for the most threatened resource types and areas,” including immigrant and ethnic communities (City of Saint Paul 2009:12). The primary objective for development of this Saint Paul African American Historic and Cultural Context Project (Context Study) was to lay a solid foundation for identification of key sites of historic significance and advancing preservation of these sites and the community’s stories.

RECONCILING MEMORY: LANDSCAPES, COMMEMORATIONS, AND ENDURING CONFLICTS OF THE U.S.-DAKOTA WAR OF 1862 by JULIE HUMANN ANDERSON Under the Direction of Clifford M. Kuhn ABSTRACT The U.S.-Dakota War of 1862 resulted in the deaths of more than 500 Minnesota settlers, the expulsion of the Dakota people from their homeland, and the largest mass execution in U.S. history. For more than a century, white Minnesotans declared themselves innocent victims of Indian brutality and actively remembered this war by erecting monuments, preserving historic landscapes, publishing first-person narratives, and hosting anniversary celebrations. However, as the centennial anniversary approached, new awareness for the sufferings of the Dakota both before and after the war prompted retellings of the traditional story that gave the status of victimhood to the Dakota as well as the white settlers.

Minnesota Bounties On Dakota Men During The .SU .-Dakota War Abstract The .SU .-Dakota War was one of the formative events in Minnesota history, and despite the passage of time, it still stirs up powerful emotions among descendants of the Dakota and white settlers who experienced this tragedy. Hundreds of people lost their lives in just over a month of fighting in 1862. By the time the year was over, thirty-eight Dakota men had been hanged in the largest mass execution in United States history. Not long afterwards, the United States abrogated its treaties with the Dakota, confiscated their reservations along the Minnesota River, and forced most of the Dakota to remove westward. While dozens of books and articles have been written about these events, scholars have largely ignored an important legal development that occurred in Minnesota during the following summer. The inneM sota Adjutant General, at the direction of Minnesota Governors Alexander Ramsey and Henry Swift, issued a series of orders offering rewards for the killing of Dakota men found within the State.

  • Papers of the Dakota Conference Index: 1990-2015
    Papers of the Dakota Conference A National Conference on the Northern Plains Index: 1990-2015 Compiled by Matthew Housiaux Team The Center for Western Studies Preface The Center for Western Studies (CWS) of Augustana is pleased to make available this index to the Papers of the Dakota Conference on Northern Plains History, Literature, Art, and Archaeology for the period 1990 to 2015. Over the years, many individuals have contributed to this index. This update, for 2011 to 2015, was compiled by CWS Intern Matthew Housiaux. In 1989, following the Twenty-second Annual Dakota History Conference, Dakota State University, the home of the conference since its founding in February 1969, invited South Dakota institutions to consider sponsoring the conference, since the academic program at Dakota State no longer accommodated a history conference. The Center for Western Studies agreed to administer the conference beginning in 1990, with the promise of financial support consideration from the South Dakota Humanities Council. The Humanities Council provided grant support for the conference annually from 1990 to 2008, in response to competitive proposals submitted by CWS. Over the years, significant additional financial support has been received from several individuals and organizations. For twenty-six years, the Center for Western Studies has not only administered the conference but has also expanded its scope to include the northern Great Plains and welcomed papers on literature, art, and archaeology as well as history. Dedicated to examining regional issues in their historical and cultural contexts, the Dakota Conference is a signature event of CWS, which provides programming in Northern Plains studies at Augustana College.
