She dined with the white cast and Selznick at the Coconut Grove where the ceremony was later held. For the Oscar ceremony McDaniel wore an ermine stole over a blue gown and trimmed her hair and dress with gardenias. She entered the Ambassador Hotel with the same fanfare as the other actors; fans both black and white cheered her.

In trying to analyze how McDaniel was feeling in the minutes leading up to the announcement, Jill Watts writes: This daughter of ex-slaves, who had struggled with poverty and racial oppression, had finally broken into the highest ranks in Hollywood, ascending further than any African American had in the world of white show business.
Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, fellow members of the motion picture industry and honored guests: This is one of the happiest moments of my life, and I want to thank each one of you who had a part in selecting for one of the awards, for your kindness. It has made me feel very, very humble; and I shall always hold it as a beacon for anything that I may be able to do in the future. I sincerely hope I shall always be a credit to my race and to the motion picture industry. My heart is too full to tell you just how I feel, and may I say thank you and God bless you.
Some reported the win not as an accomplishment in itself, but rather as a signal of a possible change in the fortunes of black actors in white Hollywood. In fact, Hollywood would not allow her to have roles that portrayed African Americans as equals with whites. The only roles McDaniel would be offered in the years after her Oscar win were the usual stultifying fare for a black person.

Given my particular talents, I knew I should want to be a doctor or an illustrator, but I did not yet realize that I could only envision myself in those occupations in the context of another age-the world of Beatrice Potter or Florence Nightingale.
I grew up in Fort Collins, Colorado in the s, but refused to admit that basic fact. My absence was reaffirmed each Sunday at 9 p.

My parents were huge Masterpiece Theatre buffs, and so I, the dutiful oldest daughter, watched alongside them imagining myself into the past. After school, we pretended that even though we were girls, we went to Rugby too and rescued poor Tom Brown and Cuthbertson from their miserable School Days. It should have been obvious where things here were inevitably headed, as I lived through Upstairs, Downstairs, Shoulder to Shoulder, and countless other BBC dramas. But when I went off to Harvard, I made a list of what I would absolutely not major in: Instead it took two weeks.
Sure, this was macabre, but at the time, it seemed hard to imagine that a trip to Disneyland or a pony could top this as the best birthday present ever. I never got the pony either-stuffed or otherwise. Clearly, with my childhood desire to keep Tudor corpses in the living room and my adolescent penchant I confess for obsessive Ouija board sessions, I had been trying to do so mostly in the dubious spirit of Madame Blavatsky.
Thankfully, though, I soon tripped upon the archives instead, which has allowed me to raise the dead in ways that are considered slightly more acceptable, if not as remunerative as reading palms or transfiguring the departed. I trained at Berkeley with Tom Laqueur and other marvelous scholars at an exciting time in the late s and s when theory was big and invariably had an impact on the nature of my scholarship.
Yet despite that training, a perhaps slightly old-fashioned search for spirits haunts much of my research. And no spirit more so than an eighteenth-century midwife, Elizabeth Nihell, who has enjoyed an iconic status among feminists for her exuberant attack on male obstetricians in the s. Capturing ghosts is notoriously elusive. I could not find her that summer, but she led me through a rich summer of French research that illuminated unexpected connections between nationalism, religion, and reproduction-insights that fundamentally transformed my book manuscript, Birthing the Nation.
A huge analytical payoff, certainly, but I still felt crushed that Nihell herself had no surviving records-and, worst of all, there had been records until the cataclysms of the nineteenth century. Earlier nineteenth-century sources indicated that Nihell was included in this file.

In spite of the nineteenth-century flames which licked up her maiden name and much more, I did find a small piece of Mrs. Nihell in the London archives. Another summer, on a hunch, I refused to believe the eighteenth-century parish indices and decided to read through hundreds of files myself, just to double check, just in case. Every weeknight, after the British Library and other archives closed, I crossed Trafalgar Square and walked down Whitehall towards the Westminster City Archives, which stayed open late.
It took a summer, pregnant with my first son i. I found her in, of all places, the poorly alphabetized affidavits for the St. Her detailed pauper affidavit revealed that she was a Catholic married in Paris in to an Irish Catholic surgeon around age eighteen who abandoned her in She never left the workhouse. In May of , she died there and was buried for 2 shillings, 6 pence. Elizabeth Nihell, a learned, published, proud author, and inspiration to Mary Daly and other modern feminists, was buried in a parish pauper pit. This grave would have been roughly under what is now a Trafalgar Square traffic island with a statue dedicated to a feminist nurse and national martyr of World War One: A fittingly ironic monument, to be sure, but a tragic plot for another feminist health practitioner whose treatise sold for twice the price of her burial.
I felt disconcerted as the documents fell together and realized that my historical muse had once been placed six feet under an intersection that I have crossed hundreds of times since the age of eleven when my Masterpiece Theatre obsessed family took a sabbatical to London. I was already fully immersed in the past as I pretended to be a Pankhurst toppling the staid Edwardian world in sixth grade, but I of course had no idea that such an ordinary spot on Charing Cross Road would someday become my imaginary touchstone.
I also wanted an excuse to work with Lisa so I figured I should choose a book with which she could be of help. Lisa taught me that contemporary understandings of topics such as gender, war, and changes in technology are based on historical events that had the power to change nations and social ideas.
She taught me the usefulness of knowing, questioning, and learning history, which all led me to think differently about the world we create and live in today. I could rave on about Lisa for pages! I envy all the students and faculty that will be able to continue working with her in the future.
Her generosity to her students and commitment to teaching are unparalleled. I continue to recommend her classes to students, convincing them that they, too, will think about life differently after every class. I am thrilled that she will be acknowledged as a Top Young Historian. The honor is well deserved. Lisa is one of the most engaging professors that I have ever met. She combines a staggering command of the subject matter with humor, accessibility, and a relentless passion for her work and her students. Taking a class from a professor of her caliber was a high point of my academic career.
I also worked closely with her when applying for a Marshall Scholarship and while serving on faculty search panels for a new ancient history professor and professor of Korean history. As a result of these interactions, I came to know Professor Cody extremely well and she easily became my favorite professor. Professor Cody was able to keep class interesting by varying her method of instruction considerably. Class was always a refreshing blend of lecture, discussion, small group work, and individual presentations. Additionally, the assigned readings were a nice mix of primary sources, secondary scholarship, and salient works of fiction.
As a result of this variety, class was never dull and I really felt engaged with the subject matter. She was always so sincerely interested in helping you, that I felt comfortable asking for her advice on a wide range of issues. For example, she provided great support not only for matters relating to class and as my thesis reader, but she also provided great consul as I went through the law school application process.
I considered Lisa not only my professor, but also a mentor and a friend. She is an incredibly inspirational and creative thinker, always pushing her students to take their arguments to the next level. I owe my decision to become a history major to her, which is why I also had to have her as my thesis advisor. I took her intro to british history class in the beginning of my sophomore year and I immediately switched my literature major to a history major because of her class.
Her enthusiasm, passion, and intelligence surrounding issues of gender greatly intrigued me and in turn I then added a Gender Studies minor. I took three classes with Lisa and she was also my thesis reader. She is an amazing thinker, writer, and teacher. I have been incredibly fortunate to have been able to learn some of what she has to teach.

Sklansky is also the author of numerous scholarly journal articles, book chapters and reviews including among others: Sklansky is currently working on The Money Question: Currency in American Political Thought, Book project on the rise and fall of the year struggle over what should serve as money, who should control its creation and circulation, and according to what rules. Sklansky is the recipient of numerous awards and fellowships including among others: At the heart of my first book is the relationship between the personal and the political, or between the intimate ways in which we come to think, feel, and relate to one another and the societal structure of power and property, rights and resources.
Looking back, I think that underlying question, derived from the New Left, brought me to the historical profession in the first place. When I was in middle school, my mother went into private practice as a psychotherapist. In high school, I joined the debate team and advocated things like school busing, marijuana legalization, and an end to U.
My political interests supplied an antidote to alienation, as did part-time reporting for the local weekly and daily newspapers. Much of the appeal was that the politics and journalism were about something bigger and more compelling than my own adolescent angst. They allowed me to define what I was about in terms of something other than personal anxieties, aptitudes, and ambitions, something irreducible to my need or desire for it, as high-flown as that may sound.
Journalism and politics came together for me more powerfully at U. I straddled the line between participant and observer, drawn to political action but rarely joining in fully. Maybe more comfortable in the classroom, I was enthralled by the heady mixture of political engagement and intellectual depth and breadth I encountered in my history teachers and texts. My love of history and politics drew me to graduate school shortly after college, hardly realizing how fragile and contingent was the political promise of higher education itself.
Political culture of twentieth century America, in particular, the American South in the second half of the century. Crespino is the author of In Search of Another Country: He is currently working on The End of Southern History?

He is also working on the manuscript American Kulturkampf: Private Schools and Modern Conservatism This book will examine conflicts over private school education since the Brown decision as a way of framing a broad and diverse set of debates over race, religion and citizenship in modern America.

Kennedy Library Foundation; Andrew W. It was a place where the vestiges of Jim Crow segregation were very real. Local politics were intensely divided along racial lines. All the white children in the area attended a white-flight private academy.
In a town where over sixty percent of the population was African American, I had incredibly little contact with black folks-at least African American children my age. Pickup basketball games in my driveway that happened to include a few black kids who wandered by were enough for neighbors to complain to my mother. I was lucky to be able to attend high school and college outside of Mississippi, where I gained perspective on the unique aspects of my hometown and my childhood.
My undergraduate years were critical in leading me to study history. I had great teachers who inspired me, but the most important experience came outside of the classroom. There I met so many residents who were part of the historic migration of African Americans from the rural South to the urban North.
Volunteering in the Henry Horner Homes and seeing the intense poverty of residents and the neighborhood segregation in Chicago cast my childhood experiences in a new light. What I came to realize, of course, was that my own experience was just one part of a larger story. That realization shaped the approach I took in my first book, which examines segregationist politics in Mississippi.
Too often histories of civil rights struggles in the South treat white southerners as exceptional from other white Americans; their racism is seen as being different in both kind and degree from that of other white Americans. My personal experience and my research both confirmed and contradicted these accounts. Certainly there were differences in the racism of whites in Mississippi and Chicago. Yet it is easy to overstate the differences between white Mississippians and other white Americans in a way that warps our understanding of racism in modern America. This is true in many different ways, but an important one is this: The venerable politician and statesman Senator Henry Clay of Kentucky believed his time to win the Presidency would finally be ripe in One of the most contentious issues in the country in the antebellum period was slavery.
Clay tried to take a centrist position, but accusations flew in both the North and the South that he favored extremes. In the South he was accused of being an abolitionist who plotted secretly to abolish slavery. But he intended to stick to his views regardless of the political consequences. In order eventually to capture the nomination he needed support from Southern Whigs, but at the same time, he needed support from the Northern Quakers who were passive abolitionists.
Clay actually wrote the petition himself. The speech was Clay at his worse, which his supporters lamented.

Formerly he had spoken as a born anti-slavery man, who to his profound regret found himself compelled to make concessions to slavery. Now he appeared as one inclined to deplore the attacks on slavery no less, if not more, than the existence of slavery itself. Clay hoped this would put the speculation to rest that he harbored secret abolitionist desires.
It was here that he distinguished himself most from the abolitionists while attacking their solution to the slavery problem. Remini, Still, he believed that emancipation was not the answer.

Clay claimed he did not believe that blacks and whites could live in racial harmony, as abolitionists claimed. Clay believed that this power struggle would lead to Civil War, and suggested that the status quo was the best approach to take to the slavery question. It may ruin all; it can save none. Calhoun, from South Carolina, lauded Clay, praising him for understanding the dangers of the abolitionist movement. His speech will have a happy effect, and will do much to consummate what had already been so happily begun and successfully carried on to a completion.
The speech offended the abolitionists, giving Clay the results he was looking for, distancing himself from them. Clay hoped his speech would increase his support among those he needed to help him garner the nomination. Still it was a turn off to many Northerners. Clay supporters like James G. Clay should not have been surprised by the negative reaction or the long-term consequences. Before he delivered it, he read it to Senator William C. Preston of South Carolina, and several of his friends and colleagues to get their opinion.
Upon hearing this Clay proclaimed the classic phrase he is most remembered for: Senator Preston repeated these words in a speech to a Whig rally in Philadelphia the following month announcing the phrase to the public. Remini, Clay may have wanted to be right, but he also wanted the Presidency, and his chances were slipping from him. Soon after the speech, Clay felt the backlash. First Daniel Webster charged that Clay caused the Whigs to lose the election in Maine, and that the party should instead support a candidate who had more appeal, such as General William Henry Harrison.
Politicians in the North, Abolitionists, and anti-Masons preferred Harrison as a presidential candidate to Clay. Fortunately for Clay, Webster took himself out of the running for the Whig nomination when he departed for England in Still Clay believed the nomination was his. May it be guided by wisdom and lead to victory. Each state would choose three delegates to a committee, the committee in turn would ask their state which candidate they preferred. A vote would be held in private, and when there was a state consensus, the delegates would report it to the full convention.
To counter this, Stevens released to the delegates a letter Scott wrote to Francis Granger that appeared favorable to the abolitionists. Anti-Masons and abolitionists, the two groups Clay alienated with his February 7, speech, controlled the Whig Party. So be it, responded the delegates. As we are now reaching a defining moment in the campaign with Super Tuesday around the corner, another candidate has been compared to Clay. Hillary Clinton has been haunted by her Senate vote for the Iraq war, but has refused to apologize for it, though her position on the war has evolved.

Du Bois Institute, Harvard University: After my freshman year I knew I wanted to be a writer and somehow make a living doing it, and was fortunate to earn an internship at the Baltimore Evening Sun. One gave me one of my first in-the-field assignments: When I think back on that moment, I sometimes wonder whether I showed trepidation, or had the reporter simply felt the need to assure me a young, green journalism student that I would both be safe and do fine.
Once we arrived at the public housing complex, I met black mothers, including teen parents, who were raising families with limited resources and navigating austere and neglected neighborhoods. This assignment eventually led to my visiting, and writing about, a neighborhood and church-based parenting enrichment program that served primarily black teen mothers and a few teen fathers.
Two more newspaper internships including one with the New York Times and three years later, I graduated UMCP as the first black undergraduate to receive its highest honor of salutatorian and commencement speaker in its year history. That same year, , I began my career as a night-time general assignment reporter.
But I soon discovered, that overall, the daily new events I was assigned including dog shows and numerous weather stories, not on the Hurricane Katrina level of importance failed to elicit my excitement or fulfill my vision of engaging in useful intellectual inquiry. I had promised myself that in five years maximum I would go back to school, or if I did not like my job in two to three years.
So in at the two-year mark, I decided to seek a PhD in History. My first book, The Politics of Public Housing: It was, and still is, a historical and, for me, professional and personal journey that has exposed decades of entrenched and systemic race, gender, and economic inequality; institutional intransigence; misanthropy and societal disgust; human impotence, pain, and fortitude; and intense struggle and magnificent gumption.

Kenneth Robert Janken, Walter White: Jill Watts, Hattie McDaniel: Posted in On This Day in History. Posted by bonniekgoodman on February 29, https: Personal Anecdote When asked as a girl what I would someday be, I never said a historian. This is the first book to place the eighteenth-century shift… in a larger cultural and political context.
It illuminates how eighteenth-century Britons understood and symbolized political, national, and religious affiliation through the experiences of the body, sex, and birth…. Political arguments of the age were not always made on disembodied, rational terms, but instead referenced deep cultural beliefs about gender, reproduction, and the family…. Through reproductive signs and stories, Britons could describe themselves and others, as individuals, as types, as members of different corporate bodies, including nations, and these comparisons helped to establish the seemingly natural facts of community and otherness.
Georgian England, Cody argues, was obsessed with birth…. Birthing the Nation offers a convincing account of how an emergent male culture of obstetric practise and reproductive theory informed populist political language and iconography and as such will be of interest not only to medical historians but also a broad range of scholars and students concerned with the language of science as it relates to issues of gender, race, and national identity in post-Restoration and Georgian Britain.
The book also excels in its employment of images. Cody highlights the corporality of reproductive knowledge embedded in prints and caricatures and the capacity of visual representations to generate distinct sets of meanings. In a segment that is particularly timely, she shows how men-midwives contributed to the creation of the modern subject position of the fetus by, among other means, commissioning highly sentimental detailed illustrations of the fetus-as-child resting in utero.
It succeeds in placing reproduction at the heart of many of the key debates about change, modernity, and the eighteenth century. Her insightful analyses coalesce to form a remarkably nuanced and highly readable account of the role played by science and reproduction in forging a national identity at this critical juncture in British History.
It was Professor Cody who first inspired me to become a history major. She fostered my desire to develop, understand and explore my passions about the history of the Catholic Church in England. As an academic advisor, she was always very accessible and approachable and always encouraging, understanding and helpful. As a professor, she pushed me to exceed my expectations and helped me to become a thoughtful, inquisitive and enthusiastic historian. As my thesis reader, she not only bent over backward to help me realize my passions, but she also pushed me forward to realize them in study and writing.
She gives each of her students an individual attention that cannot be expected of most professors. Lisa Cody is much more than I could hope for in a professor — she is a friend who shares her interests until her overwhelming enthusiasm makes them your interests. She has contributed so much to my college years; the lessons I have learned from her will stay with me always.
She sets high standards for her students and a coach there every step of the way encouraging and aiding their success. I am pleased to see that she has been given this award and confident that no one deserves it more. She should be recognized everyday for her accomplishments both as an academic and as a mother. She has taught me more than the incredible material she covers in her classes. She changed the way I approached writing, reading and learning. She not only cares about her students but fosters a higher level of education and participation in her students.
I only wish I could have her as a professor and advisor for the rest of my academic career. I would be happy to answer any questions or elaborate on the ways professor Cody has changed me as a student. What I have said does not do her justice. I cannot say enough about her knowledge, wisdom and inspiration. She has changed me as a student and advisee for the better and I am grateful for all her academic inspiration and for the privilege of learning from a professor as wise and caring. She continues to bring out the best in me and I have rarely felt a connection as strong as I do with professor Cody.
Please feel free to contact me with any further questions or for any other comments about how she has affected me. The fact that I can comfortably refer to her by her first name already shows the type of rapport she creates with her students! The texts were difficult, the discussions challenging. I was always excited to attend her class because I was eager to hear her thoughts about the text we had read.

She had the ability to turn a book, perhaps one that I did not particularly enjoy, into one that seemed brilliant because of her insightful comments and perspective. Lisa was available for questions both in and out of the classroom. Responses to emails arrived very quickly and it was easy to set up a time outside of office hours to meet.
Her accessibility as a professor showed me that my education was just as important to her as other research and administrative duties for which she was responsible. This class ultimately became one of my favorite classes at CMC. Lisa always chose the best texts to read for her classes and discussions about the relationship between sewers, prostitution, and the rise of industrial London in the 19th Century remains a vivid memory even though two years has passed since the class.
Lisa always encouraged student feedback about the texts she assigned and promoted student-led discussions. The opportunity to pose analytical questions and learn from my peers proved to be invaluable to my development as a successful student. It was clear that though she was a history professor, her knowledge about other subjects literature, science, art, areas of history outside her primary interest only enhanced her knowledge about history.
