My Memoirs

1880-2006

By: Anna Mae Clarke-Sullivan

People, in the new dawn of life a flower bud, small and energetic. We grow into a beautiful blossom, give joy to the world, and when we have done so, gradually fade away into our own time. Sometimes we are remembered with gladness and hapiness, recalling a momentous occasion, sometimes we are remembered with sadness and melancholy. Always, there is a purpose in everything. Destiny shapes all the elements.

Bioelectrodynamics and Biocommunication

By: Mae-Wan Ho,Fritz Albert Popp,Ulrich Warnke

A comprehensive and up-to-date collection of papers on the role of electrodynamical activities in biocommunication is presented in this volume. It provides research findings, practical applications and theoretical investigations linking phenomena as diverse as the sensitivity of organisms to ultraweak ELF electromagnetic fields, noninvasive imaging by magnetic field tomography, coherent liquid crystalline mesophases in living organisms and coherent light emission from biological systems. The volume begins with chapters on the historical perspectives and the biophysical background necessary for understanding bioelectrical phenomena. This is followed by chapters dealing with the biological effects of external electromagnetic fields; the detection of endogenous electrodynamical and related activities and their practical applications; and finally, theoretical perspectives and overviews. It is recommended for undergraduates, graduates and research scientists in all disciplines who wish to be informed of the emerging discipline of bioelectrodynamics.List of Contributors: M Bischof, J J Chang, A S Davydov, D Edmonds, A French, C Gross, Q Gu, J Haffegee, M W Ho, A A Ioannides, R P Liburdy, W P Mei, R Pethig, F A Popp, P T Saunders; C W Smith, T Y Tsong, U Warnke, T M Wu, C L Zhang.

Speaking in Tongues and Dancing Diaspora

Speaking in Tongues and Dancing Diaspora

Black Women Writing and Performing

By: Mae Henderson

Tropes ranging from Houston Baker's "bluesman," to Henry Louis Gates' "signifyin'" to Geneva Smitherman's "talkin' and testifyin'" to bell hooks' "talking back" to Cheryl Wall's "worrying the line" all affirm the power of sonance and sound in the African American literary tradition. The collection of essays in Speaking in Tongues and Dancing Diaspora contributes to this tradition by theorizing the preeminence of voice and narration (and the consequences of their absence) in the literary and cultural performances of black women. Looking to work by such prominent black female authors as Alice Walker, Sherley Anne Williams, Toni Morrison, Zora Neal Hurston, among many others, Mae G. Henderson provides a deeply felt reflection on race and gender and their effects within the discourse of speaker and listener.

The Chinese Question: The Gold Rushes, Chinese Migration, and Global Politics

The Chinese Question: The Gold Rushes, Chinese Migration, and Global Politics

By: Mae Ngai

Winner of the 2022 Bancroft Prize Shortlisted for the 2022 Cundill History Prize Finalist for the 2022 Los Angeles Times Book Prize How Chinese migration to the world’s goldfields upended global power and economics and forged modern conceptions of race. In roughly five decades, between 1848 and 1899, more gold was removed from the earth than had been mined in the 3,000 preceding years, bringing untold wealth to individuals and nations. But friction between Chinese and white settlers on the goldfields of California, Australia, and South Africa catalyzed a global battle over “the Chinese Question”: would the United States and the British Empire outlaw Chinese immigration? This distinguished history of the Chinese diaspora and global capitalism chronicles how a feverish alchemy of race and money brought Chinese people to the West and reshaped the nineteenth-century world. Drawing on ten years of research across five continents, prize-winning historian Mae Ngai narrates the story of the thousands of Chinese who left their homeland in pursuit of gold, and how they formed communities and organizations to help navigate their perilous new world. Out of their encounters with whites, and the emigrants’ assertion of autonomy and humanity, arose the pernicious western myth of the “coolie” laborer, a racist stereotype used to drive anti-Chinese sentiment. By the turn of the twentieth century, the United States and the British Empire had answered “the Chinese Question” with laws that excluded Chinese people from immigration and citizenship. Ngai explains how this happened and argues that Chinese exclusion was not extraneous to the emergent global economy but an integral part of it. The Chinese Question masterfully links important themes in world history and economics, from Europe’s subjugation of China to the rise of the international gold standard and the invention of racist, anti-Chinese stereotypes that persist to this day.

Patrick and Elizabeth Long

A Pioneer Family in the Long Point Settlement

By: Mae Long Pagdin

Inspired by a short article on her family background and a deep passion for history, author Mae Long Pagdin spends thirty-five years haunting pioneer cemeteries, library archives, municipal records offices, and locales in Ireland, Pennsylvania, and Ontario to research her Long family ancestors, beginning with the original emigration from Ireland by Patrick and Elizabeth Long in 1791. What she uncovers tells a fascinating tale of pioneer life, as the Longs face innumerable challenges in the New World, including raids by the Indigenous peoples and a rebellion against taxation on local whisky production in Western Pennsylvania, where they first settle. But a perilous move to Upper Canada, in quest of the free land that’s being offered, poses even bigger challenges: disputes against their land grant; families on whom they depend settling elsewhere; and the relentless, gruelling work of felling huge trees before crops can be planted, while coping with wildlife intent on attacking their domestic animals and a brutal climate that can kill the ill-prepared. In an engaging and well documented narrative, author Long Pagdin tells the gripping story of the Longs confronting their challenges with courage and fortitude to establish a foothold in the New World for themselves and all the generations to follow. Naturally, Long family descendants will be fascinated by this story, but anyone who loves history will find themselves equally captivated by this lively tale of pioneer life.

The Assertive Woman in Zora Neale Hurston's Fiction, Folklore, and Drama

By: Pearlie Mae Fisher Peters

Hurston was renowned for her portrayal of assertive women in her fiction, folklore, and drama. This book explores her development as an assertive woman and outspoken writer, emphasizing the impact of the African American oral traditions and vernacular speech patterns of Harlem, Polk County, and her hometown of Eatonville, Florida on the development of her personal and artistic voice. The study traces the development of her assertive women characters, the emphasis upon verbal performance and verbal empowerment, the significance of down home Southern humor, and the importance of an ideology of assertive individualism in Hurston's writings and analyzes changes in Hurston's personal style. Hurston articulated an assertive spirit and voice that had a profound influence on the development of her professional reputation and on the course of African American literature, folklore, and culture of the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s. This study combines literary criticism and biography in tracing her often controversial career. This wide-ranging book focuses upon links between Hurston's fiction and nonfiction, and includes analysis of her plays, which have often been neglected in studies of her writing.(Ph.D. dissertation, State University of New York-Buffalo, 1989; revised with new introduction)

Thayer, or the Uxbridge Town Hall, designed by A.P. Cutting of Worcester. Visit the railroad station built in 1895, or a class in the one-room Ironstone Schoolhouse.

Dolley

A Novel

By: Rita Mae Brown

She had the president’s ear and the nation’s heart. She’s the wife of the fourth president of the United States; a spirited charmer who adores parties, the latest French fashions, and the tender, brilliant man who is her husband. But while many love her, few suspect how complex Dolley Madison really is. Only in the pages of her diary—as imagined by novelist Rita Mae Brown—can Dolley fully reveal herself. And there we discover the real first lady—impulsive, courageous, and wise—as she faces her harshest trial: in 1814, the United States is once more at war with mighty Britain, and her beloved James is the most hated man in America. From the White House receptions she gaily presides over to her wild escape from a Washington under siege, Dolley gives us a legend, made warmly human. For there has never been a first lady so tested—or one who came through the fire so brilliantly.

Portsmouth Virginia

By: Cassandra Newby-Alexander,Mae Breckenridge-Haywood

African Americans in Portsmouth built a strong, insulated community because they were cognizant of the need to look inward. Whether assisting the pre-Civil War escapes through the Underground Railroad, forming banks, publishing a newspaper, or providing recreational facilities, Portsmouth's African Americans created one of the most stable middle-class black communities in America. Early 20th-century leaders such as Dr. William Reid, Nancy T. Wheeler, and the Reverend Harvey N. Johnson Sr. were civic models and guiding forces for a community emerging from the ravages of slavery, and enduring the hardships of segregation. Black America: Portsmouth, Virginia captures the world of an ever-changing community and a people who persevered, no matter the odds.

Serving up Hope and Freedom

The Triumphant Story of James and Robert Paschal

By: Mae A. Kendall

More than sixty-five years after the end of the American Civil War, African-Americans still dealt with the debilitating poverty of sharecropping and the Depression, and the violence of the Ku Klux Klan during the 1930s. Two African-American brothers, James and Robert Paschal, persevered despite these limitations and realized their dreams through years of hard work and determination. Serving Up Hope and Freedom is the moving true story of the Paschal brothers from Georgia. Fighting against the odds of a sharecropping life, James and Robert went on to become millionaires, philanthropists, world-renowned restaurant/hotel owners, and leaders in the struggle for civil rights. As told by James Paschal, this memoir showcases the brothers' extraordinary devotion to making a difference in the world, inspiring others to tap into the unlimited power of their dreams. Their legacy will continue to provide hope, inspiration, and encouragement for future generations.
