<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-size: large;">On <i>Historical Connections</i>, Host Jeffrey Bingham Mead welcomed from Greenwich, Connecticut playwright and author Catherine Ladnier with John Dolin and Joe Webber of West Haven, Connecticut.

It would be many years before family members and the public would learn details about the mysterious circumstances of the HMT Rohna disaster. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-size: large;">Precariously positioned between China and India, Burma’s population has suffered dictatorship, natural disaster, and the dark legacies of colonial rule. But when decades of military dictatorship finally ended and internationally beloved Nobel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi emerged from long years of house arrest, hopes soared. Progress seemed inevitable.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-size: large;">An historian, former diplomat, historical conservationist and presidential advisor, Dr. Thant Myint-U saw the cracks forming. He dissects how a singularly predatory economic system, fast-rising inequality, disintegrating state institutions, the impact of new social media, the rise of China next door, climate change, and deep-seated feelings around race, religion, and national identity all came together to challenge the incipient democracy. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-kerning: none;"><span style="font-size: large;">Interracial violence soared and a horrific exodus of hundreds of thousands of Rohingya refugees fixed international attention.

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">It was impossible not to feel a sense of hope as the Cold War began to thaw and the Soviet Union, under the leadership of Mikhail Gorbachev, embarked upon a new era of political openness and economic reform. Gorbachev represented a new path for the fledgling Russian state, one that many believed would lead to a western style democratic-capitalism. But in August of 1991, Gorbachev was placed under house arrest and his reforms were quickly done away with. In an iconic moment, Boris Yeltsin, recently elected as President of the Russian Republic, stood atop a tank outside the parliament building and urged Russians to resist the military takeover. To the surprise of many, soldiers disobeyed their orders and even joined the resistance. Individuals had taken a stand against the might of the Russian military establishment <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_GoBack" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #649a41; text-decoration: underline;"></a>and set the country on a new course.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /> <br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Over time, however, Yeltsin’s rule became increasingly autocratic. Already weak institutions began to buckle as Yeltsin issued edicts eroding the authority of the nation’s courts and legislature. As the country lurched towards authoritarianism, Yeltsin resigned and appointed Vladimir Putin as his successor. Decades later Putin remains in power and Russian democracy remains a Potemkin village. Without a robust system of institutions to serve as a check on presidential power, Russians face an illiberal democracy where the rule of law remains a hope not a reality.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /> <br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />It was a passionate desire to change our reality that led Rachel Carson to write on environmental issues and reframe our relationship with the natural world. An avid bird-watcher and prodigious researcher, she had grown increasingly concerned about the deleterious effects of chemical pesticides on the environment and people’s health. With the publication of her best-selling work <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Silent Spring</em> in 1962, she helped stoke an environmental consciousness in many Americans and raised the ire of those who believed that pesticides would boost agricultural production and save lives. Ultimately, her work pushed the federal government to create the Environmental Protection Agency and to deliberately tackle issues of pollution and environmental degradation. <br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Mohandas Gandhi’s vision of a free India came about not only through the use of mass mobilization but also from his understanding of how to challenge the authority of British institutions. It was those same British institutions, however, that aided India during the early days of independence as India’s parliament modeled itself after British practices. When Rosa Parks exercised individual power by keeping her seat on a Montgomery, Alabama bus in protest of segregation laws in the South, she sparked a movement backed by institutions like the NAACP and black churches. Just as individuals can shape history, institutions can serve as the catalysts for change or prove to be obstacles to human freedom. How individuals and institutions exercise power and towards what end is an important question that speaks to our values and the nature of human community.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /> <br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />The National Council for History Education invites proposals on the theme “Exercising Power: Individuals and Institutions in History” for the 2019 National Conference. All proposals will be evaluated on the basis of their intellectual content, their ability to engage the audience, and their overall contribution to the teaching of history. <br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Breakout sessions:</span> These teacher workshops are typically interactive “how to” sessions designed for the K-12 educator and are 50 minutes in length.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /> <br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Mini Sessions:</span> Mini Session topics range from teaching ideas to research reports. Presenters have 15 minutes to present information and answer questions. Each mini session typically includes 3 separate 15 minute presentations in the same room within a 50 minute time period.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Poster Session:</span> Poster Session topics range from teaching ideas to research reports. Poster presenters display their information visually (ex. poster/display board) on a six foot table and interact with interested attendees during the 50-minute session. Presenters remain with their posters. The poster session period may include 8-15 simultaneous presenters.</span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We pause for a moment to wish our teachers, students, school administrators and staff a pleasant, safe and successful first day of classes in Hawaii! As the month progresses more of our private schools will also be returning to their respective classrooms.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">In case you have not noticed HEH has been quiet for much of the calendar year. Very soon History Education Hawaii will have some important announcements -including a one-of-a-kind service that we hope will bring history educators, students, museum staff and leaders together as never before. Stay tuned! </span>History Education Hawaii, Inc.http://www.blogger.com/profile/18181799707997230843noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8153445181287283405.post-55379559233066018202017-06-23T04:58:00.003-10:002017-06-23T04:58:36.812-10:00POSITION ANNOUNCEMENT: Volunteer and Program Coordinator at Hawaiian Mission Houses Historic Site and Archives<br />

When the war started, this Nisei served his country as a translator and undercover agent both on the front lines and behind the scenes in General MacArthur’s headquarters, even while at home over 120,000 Japanese Americans were interned in relocation camps. More than just a spy, Komori’s varied responsibilities also included interrogating prisoners of war and helping to train new linguist recruits and prepare them for work in the Pacific. Komori was also with MacArthur when he retook the Philippines and was in Tokyo Bay to witness the surrender of the Japanese to the Allied Powers. Fortunately, Komori recorded his story in journals, reports, and even poetry. This long overdue account of a decorated Military Intelligence Hall of Fame inductee reveals an important chapter in the history of Japanese Americans during World War II.</span><br style="color: #202020; line-height: 19.5px;" /><br style="color: #202020; line-height: 19.5px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #202020; line-height: 19.5px;">Light refreshments will be served.</span></span>History Education Hawaii, Inc.http://www.blogger.com/profile/18181799707997230843noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8153445181287283405.post-63674530092646805812016-12-07T06:23:00.000-10:002016-12-07T06:23:03.721-10:00<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span>I return to concerns closer to home: higher education generally and academic freedom specifically. These columns are written under the shadow of the (perennial) “crisis of the humanities,” a crisis to which humanists have responded by mounting ever more elaborate (and unconvincing) justifications of the humanities as a practice that will save democracy, if not the world.<b> These justifications, wittingly or unwittingly, have the effect of implying that the humanities have nothing to say for themselves, that any defense of them can only be instrumental.</b> An instrumental defense of the humanities is a defense that rests everything on the humanities’ usefulness to some other project—a robust economy, the realization of democratic principles, a peaceful world. The question posed to the humanities is “What are you good for?,” and the answer is assumed to issue from a measure of “good” that the humanities do not contain. <b>The answer given in the columns reprinted here is that the humanities are good for nothing, for that is the only answer that preserves the humanities’ distinctiveness</b>.<b>If humanistic work is valued because of what it does politically or economically or therapeutically, it becomes an appendage to these other projects, and in a pinch it will always be marginalized and perhaps discarded when its instrumental payoff fails to arrive, as it always will.</b> <b>The paradox is that the stronger the case made for the utility of the humanities, the weaker the case for their support.</b> In order to be truly healthy, at least in an internal way, the humanities must be entirely disassociated from the larger world of political/ social/ economic consequences, must, that is, be appreciated for their own sake and for no other reason. <b>Although the phrase “ivory tower” is often used in derision, it is one that humanists should embrace, for it is only by embracing it that the humanities, and liberal arts education in general, can be distinguished from the forces that are always poised to turn them to foreign purposes, to purposes not their own.</b> The distinctiveness of the humanities and liberal arts education rests on their inutility, on their fostering a mode of thought that does not lead (at least by design) to the “practical” solution of real-world problems but to a deeper understanding of why they are problems in the first place and why they may never be resolved. <b>That distinctiveness is compromised whenever the liberal arts dance to the tunes of politics, economics, citizen-making, or anything else. Moreover, it is only in the context of an enforced purity of motive—we do contemplative analysis; that’s our job, and we don’t do anyone else’s— that a defensible account of academic freedom can be formulated. If the work of the liberal arts is narrowly conceived as the search for knowledge, the freedom to pursue that work in a manner unimpeded by external constituencies that want inquiry to reach predetermined conclusions is an obvious and necessary good. </b></span></span></div>

Christina Michelon provides a literally touching account of the history of Valentine’s cards. Pierre Gervais shows how one easily overlooked sentence in a Pennsylvania flour broker’s 1786 correspondence revealed a widespread, organized, and successful effort to manipulate and control access to early American regional markets. Cybele Gontar tells the story of the sole surviving broadside document marking the closing of the Port of New Orleans to American shipping by Spain in 1798. Poet Austin Segrest, a descendant of an Old South family, rediscovers, and then channels poetically, the memoirs of his New England Puritan forebear Roger Clapp. Finally, we raise a glass to Michelle Orihel, who tells us how she uses the eighteenth century ritual of toasting to bring the politics of the 1790s to life in her classroom.<br /><br />All this and more, is waiting for you and your laptop, tablet, or mobile phone at <a href="https://mail.google.com/mail/#-794897880_" style="color: #3466cc; text-decoration: none;">www.c</a><a href="http://mail01.tinyletterapp.com/commonplace/common-place-16-2-is-now-live-1/4638673-common-place.org/?c=13383693-57f9-4aca-8067-2b3c81b820ad" style="color: #3466cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">ommon-place.org</a> now. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Teachers will experience landmarks of the temperance movement and the immigrant experience in late 19th and early 20th century America by exploring Columbus and nearby Westerville, Ohio. Westerville was the home of the Anti-Saloon League, a major temperance organization that explicitly warned against the influence of alcohol, Catholics, and immigrants. Columbus was home to a large German immigrant population, with an attendant brewing industry. This small town and nearby city are emblematic of America in the Progressive Era. </span></div>
