Do you use William Hodding Carter or Hodding Carter? CARTER: I'd rather just use Hodding Carter. Q: Hodding Carter III. CARTER: The only reason for the III is just because there is a son and my dad who is by far the more famous, has got a lot of “Hodding Carter's” around him, not me. Q: Ah well, let history judge. To begin, for the historian, with could you give a short background before we get to your involvement with the Carter campaign and all that. CARTER: I grew up in a newspaperman, writer family in Mississippi. Born in New Orleans, Louisiana, but basically think of myself as a Mississippian because I lived there from the time I was one on.

  • Hodding Carter (1907-1972)
    HODDING CARTER (1907-1972). This article originally appeared in Southern Writers: A New Biographical Dictionary, 2006 One of the most prominent Southern newspaper editors of his era, Hodding Carter, Jr., crusaded against Louisiana politician Huey Long and racial discrimination. A recipient of a 1946 Pulitzer Prize for his journalism, Carter also distinguished himself as a writer, earning a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1945 and publishing numerous books of history, biography, fiction, and poetry. Born February 3, 1907, to William Hodding Carter and Irma Dutart Carter, he grew up in Hammond, Louisiana, and attended Maine’s Bowdoin College, where he graduated in 1927. After studying at Columbia University, he launched his journalism career in 1929 when he became a reporter for the New Orleans Item-Tribune. After brief stints with United Press International and the Associated Press, he collaborated with his wife, Betty Werlein Carter, to found the Daily Courier in Hammond in 1932. Still in his 20s, Carter drew national attention with his attacks on Long, whom he accused of corruption and demagoguery. After Long’s assassination and his own failed run for a seat in the Louisiana House of Representatives, Carter sold the Daily Courier and moved to Greenville, Mississippi, where he founded the Delta Star in 1936. As editor of this paper and the Delta Democrat-Times, Carter developed a national reputation, particularly for his coverage of the Civil Rights Movement. As a white Southern moderate who argued against racial discrimination, however, he faced enormous opposition in segregated and turbulent Mississippi, where the state House of Representatives formally accused him of slander and betrayal.

All Rights Reserved 2 This thesis titled Fighting Back Against the Cold War: The American Committee on East-West Accord and the Retreat from Détente by BENJAMIN F.C. WALLACE has been approved for the Department of History and the College of Arts and Sciences by Chester J. Pach Associate Professor of History Robert Frank Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT WALLACE, BENJAMIN F.C., M.A., May 2013, History Fighting Back Against the Cold War: The American Committee on East-West Accord and the Retreat From Détente Director of Thesis: Chester J. Pach This work traces the history of the American Committee on East-West Accord and its efforts to promote policies of reduced tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union in the 1970s and 1980s. This organization of elite Americans attempted to demonstrate that there was support for policies of U.S.-Soviet accommodation and sought to discredit its opponents, especially the Committee on the Present Danger. This work argues that the Committee, although largely failing to achieve its goals, illustrates the wide-reaching nature of the debate on U.S.-Soviet relations during this period, and also demonstrates the enduring elements of the U.S.-Soviet détente of the early 1970s.

Hodding Carter III Where There Is No Vision Where There Is No Vision Where There Is No Vision This is one of those times when candor requires a large dose of humility. For starters, this lecture was established to honor Tom Lambeth, but the truth is that Tom Lambeth in his life and works has honored his alma mater, his state and his nation in such remarkable ways and for so long that there is no adequate way to repay him. What I have to say tonight will be small potatoes by comparison. Fortunately for me and for Tom, the first Lambeth lecture was given last year by his old and good friend, Joel Fleishman. Joel’s affectionate tribute should be reprinted and passed out at each annual Lambeth lecture. It captures Tom in most of his multiple parts and pins down his place in the history of the last 50 or so years with precision, grace and humor.

Tisdale, B.S., M.A. Denton, Texas December, 1996 379 /vB/d /io, 9V35 MEDGAR EVERS (1925-1963) AND THE MISSISSIPPI PRESS DISSERTATION Presented to the Graduate Council of the University of North Texas in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By John R. Tisdale, B.S., M.A. Denton, Texas December, 1996 John R. Tisdale, Medgar Evers (1925-1963) and the Mississippi Press. Doctor of Philosophy (History), December, 1996, 153 pp., 99 titles. Medgar Evers was gunned down in front of his home in June 1963, a murder that went unpunished for almost thirty years. Assassinated at the height of the civil rights movement, Evers is a relatively untreated figure in either popular or academic writing. This dissertation includes three themes. Evers's death defined his life, particularly his public role. The other two themes define his relationship with the press in Mississippi (and its structure), and his relationship to the various civil rights organizations, including his employer, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Was the newspaper press, both state and national, fair in its treatment of Evers? Did the press use Evers to further the civil rights agenda or to retard that movement, and was Evers able to employ the press as a public relations tool in promoting the NAACP agenda? The obvious answers have been that the Mississippi press editors and publishers defended segregation and that Evers played a minor role in the civil rights movement.
