This Business of Relief

The South has been largely overlooked in the debates prompted by the wave of welfare reforms during the 1990s. This book helps correct that imbalance. Using Richmond, Virginia, as an example, Elna C. Green looks at issues and trends related to two centuries of relief for the needy and dependent in the urban South. Throughout, she links her findings to the larger narrative of welfare history in the United States. She ties social-welfare policy in the South to other southern histories, showing how each period left its own mark on policies and their implementation--from colonial poor laws to homes for children orphaned in the Civil War to the New Deal's public works projects. Green also covers the South's ongoing urbanization and industrialization, the selective application of social services along racial and gender lines, debates over the "deserving" and "undeserving" poor, the professionalization of social work, and the lasting effects of New Deal money and regulations on the region. This groundbreaking study sheds light on a variety of key public and private welfare issues--in history and in the present, and in terms of welfare recipients and providers.

Darth and the Puppeteers

Every Friday evening in an office six doors off Colorado Boulevard, Pasadena California, Jon Sadler and three fellow psychotherapists practice a therapeutic intervention with hand puppetry in an attempt to assist their clients in drawing out the dark side of their personalities, what Carl Jung coined as the Shadow. The depth of their combined knowledge assures them of the benign nature of their undertaking so that they were unprepared for the results of their efforts and unaware that the neighborhood killings were intimately related to their little friends. Not far, as the crow flies on the north side of Riverside Drive, lay the Glendale site of Forrest Lawn Cemeteries, a two hundred acres o...

For the Good of The Game: Who Decides What's Right?

When declared ineligible for interschool athletics by the Indiana High School Athletic Association (IIHSAA), some athletes fight back. They file lawsuits to regain their athletic eligibility. In response to lawsuits, the IHSAA counterattacks. It resorts to numerous legal and regulatory tactics to dissuade athlete lawsuits. Athlete lawsuits helped to liberalize IHSAA rules for athletes who transferred high schools due to family illness, divorce, or economic misfortune. A female athlete’s lawsuit transformed Indiana girls’ athletics years prior to the effective date of Title IX regulations prohibiting discrimination by gender in education. In For the Good of The Game: Who Decides What’s Right?, you will learn the stories of Johnell Haas, Bill and Frank Stevenson, Bill Schumaker, Warren Sturrup, and Jasmine Watson and that 1) wisdom sometimes flows up, not down; 2) the process by which decisions are made can be as important as substance, and 3), “human nature never sleeps.”

Race, Labor, and Violence in the Delta

"This essay collection grew out of a conference marking the hundredth anniversary of one of the nation's deadliest labor conflicts - the 1919 Elaine Massacre, during which white mobs ruthlessly slaughtered over two hundred African Americans across Phillips County, Arkansas, in response to a meeting of unionized Black sharecroppers. The essays here demonstrate that the brutality that unfolded in Phillips County was characteristic of the culture of race- and labor-based violence that prevailed in the century after the Civil War"--

Rising Up from Indian Country

In August 1812, under threat from the Potawatomi, Captain Nathan Heald began the evacuation of ninety-four people from the isolated outpost of Fort Dearborn to Fort Wayne. The group included several dozen soldiers, as well as nine women and eighteen children. After traveling only a mile and a half, they were attacked by five hundred Potawatomi warriors. In under an hour, fifty-two members of Heald’s party were killed, and the rest were taken prisoner; the Potawatomi then burned Fort Dearborn before returning to their villages. These events are now seen as a foundational moment in Chicago’s storied past. With Rising up from Indian Country, noted historian Ann Durkin Keating richly recount...
