Anyaso, A-N-Y- -S-,, and you go by Claudia- ANYASO4 I do. Q: Claudia, what is the derivation of that name- ANYASO4 Well Anyaso is my husband?s name and he is from Eastern Nigeria. It?s not that common but it?s an Ibo name. Q: Do you .now what it means- ANYASO4 Yes. It means Dpowerful personE or a person who has great influence in the community. Q: I always as. because I0m told Kennedy in the original 1aelic means ugly head. So I can as. that one, I can almost always top whomever. Anyway, Claudia this is being done on behalf of the ssociation of Diplomatic Studies and Training and I am Charles Stuart Kennedy. Claudia let0s start at the beginning. 2hen and where were you born- ANYASO4 I was born in Northampton County2 North Carolina and I was born October 302 15CC. North Hampton County is probably one of the poorest counties in North Carolina. Q: Is that in the Piedmont or where- 6 ANYASO4 It?s not far from Richmond. It is about 5C miles south of Richmond and it?s one of about four of what they call the Blac counties2 very2 very heavy concentrations of African- Americans. Q: It0s sort of around the Dismal Swamp or something- ANYASO4 Yes2 not too far from that. Q: ,h, just go to the Dismal Swamp and turn left or something li.e that. 2ell let0s tal. a bit about your family. Let0s tal. on your father0s side, what do you .now about them- ANYASO4 Well we now Guite a bit about them because my cousin -isa 1ladden as a high school student in Baltimore decided to find out about a relative who was a legislator during Reconstruction. Another cousin2 Betty Barbara Bell /ones a history teacher in North Carolina researched her side of the family and came up with a Confederate 1eneral. So we had a couple of illustrious ancestors. My father was a Rawls2 R-A-W---E-S he spelled it but his ancestor spelled it R-A-W---S. He was a farmer2 Ned Rawls. Edward Ned Rawls was a farmer2 a teacher and he was a State legislator during Reconstruction. He married a woman who was a Ransom. We have been having a Bell Ransom family reunion I thin for 31 years now. She was the daughter of a Confederate general and his slave Emma. So on one side we?ve got an African-American who was rather active during Reconstruction2 and we have a Confederate general who was a U.S. Senator and a consul to Me8ico. That sort of wraps it up on my father?s side. Q: Do you .now it is sort of fascinating these connections, Blac.-2hite connections down in the South- Do you .now the relationship between 1eneral Ransom and his daughter and all- ANYASO4 We?ve done some more research. In fact2 the North Carolina historical society has been loo ing into this. Unfortunately2 we don?t have many personal facts about the relationship. There are no written records or oral history to point to. Much of the land where my relatives now live and farm belonged either to Ned Rawls or to the Ransoms so I thin he beGueathed some land to her2 his daughter?s people and it?s Guite e8tensive. The Bell- Ransoms are still farming and have one of the only family owned cotton gins in the south. The Ransoms (the white side of the family, still grow peanuts or soy beans and are engaged in tree farming. There is a cemetery2 but the old plantation house is gone. Historical mar ers indicate the civil war battles fought in the area and there is a mar er for 1eneral Ransom. Q: ,n your father0s side what did his father do- ANYASO4 They became farmers. Q: Farmers huh, how did he become a farmer- I mean did they come out of the slave heritage- ANYASO4 They had to come out of that. Though after being emancipated they owned their own land and were never sharecroppers. 7 Q: I would thin. so. ANYASO4 Jbecause Ned Rawls was born a slave and so then his children weren?t2 I don?t thin 2 slaves. But they always had a great deal of pride in owning their own property and being free. They weren?t sharecroppers. Now on my mom?s side we had sharecroppers and of course2 they farmed too. Q: Sharecroppers were people who didn0t own the land but were sort of tenant farmers. ANYASO4 That?s right. Q: And they gave a portion or a share of what their crops to the owners8 ANYASO4 Of the land. Q: 8of the land. ,ften they were easily dispossessed and so this really set up an almost class system. This also was true for both 2hites and Blac.s down in the South. How did your mother and father meet- ANYASO4 They met in high school. It is the great leveler2 the great community integrator. They met in 1umberry High School. 1umberry is one of the areas down there. Q: Did your mother then became a farmer0s wife- 2as this8 ANYASO4 They were high school classmates and sweethearts2 got married( I have a brother who is about a year older than I am. But when I was si8 months old they joined that great Blac migration to the North. Q: Yes.

Perhaps the most important influences on my early thinking about this topic came from Paweł Frelik and Larry McCaffery, with whom I shared a rousing desert hike in the foothills of Borrego Springs. After an evening of food, drink, and lively exchange, I had the long-overdue epiphany to channel my training in musical performance more directly into my academic pursuits. The early support, friendship, and collegiality of these two had a tremendously positive effect on the arc of my scholarship; knowing they believed in the project helped me pencil its first sketchy contours—and ultimately see it through to the end.

  • The Gordian Knot: Apartheid & the Unmaking of the Liberal World Order, 1960-1970
    THE GORDIAN KNOT: APARTHEID & THE UNMAKING OF THE LIBERAL WORLD ORDER, 1960-1970 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Ryan Irwin, B.A., M.A. History ***** The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Professor Peter Hahn Professor Robert McMahon Professor Kevin Boyle Professor Martha van Wyk © 2010 by Ryan Irwin All rights reserved. ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the apartheid debate from an international perspective. Positioned at the methodological intersection of intellectual and diplomatic history, it examines how, where, and why African nationalists, Afrikaner nationalists, and American liberals contested South Africa’s place in the global community in the 1960s. It uses this fight to explore the contradictions of international politics in the decade after second-wave decolonization. The apartheid debate was never at the center of global affairs in this period, but it rallied international opinions in ways that attached particular meanings to concepts of development, order, justice, and freedom. As such, the debate about South Africa provides a microcosm of the larger postcolonial moment, exposing the deep-seated differences between politicians and policymakers in the First and Third Worlds, as well as the paradoxical nature of change in the late twentieth century. This dissertation tells three interlocking stories. First, it charts the rise and fall of African nationalism. For a brief yet important moment in the early and mid-1960s, African nationalists felt genuinely that they could remake global norms in Africa’s image and abolish the ideology of white supremacy through U.N.

  • ARMY FOREIGN LIAISON NEWSLETTER for Members of the Washington Corps of Military Attachés
    ARMY FOREIGN LIAISON NEWSLETTER For Members of the Washington Corps of Military Attachés ********************************************************************************************************************* Summer 2015 ********************************************************************************************************************* FROM THE DIRECTOR: Summer officially began on 21 June, and with it the many wonderful events available within the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia. Many such events are special military programs that are free of charge, such as the Army Band’s concerts on the steps of the US Capitol and Twilight Tattoos on Fort Myer. I’d like to thank everyone that was able to participate in the recent Director of the Army Staff and G-2 co-hosted Twilight Tattoo. It certainly was a wonderful program. The Twilight Tattoos are typically held each Wednesday during the summer months, and I encourage everyone that has not yet had a chance to see one to participate in one of the shows; it’s truly a spectacular event. Summer always brings changes, both in the Military Attaché Corps and in Headquarters, Department of the Army. This newsletter highlights some of the key movements, and more changes will become clearer as the summer progresses, and we’ll be sure to inform the Attaché Corps of any changes that affect the Army senior leadership. Included in all these moves is my own, so this will be my last newsletter as the Director of Army Foreign Liaison. This past year has been extremely rewarding, and I will never forget the many good colleagues with whom I have had the pleasure of associating. I also want to take this opportunity to publicly thank the Foreign Liaison team who have selflessly supported me and have made Foreign Liaison a rewarding place in which to have served.
