Black Experiences in the Shadow of the Civil War
Get PDFThis study examines the contrasting experiences and perspectives of enslaved African Americans in the South and free Black communities in the North in the years leading up to the American Civil War. Drawing on primary sources such as slave narratives, abolitionist writings, and speeches by Black leaders, the paper highlights how geographical, social, and legal contexts shaped their views on the impending conflict. While enslaved individuals feared the war’s potential for intensified oppression but harbored faint hopes for freedom, free Black Northerners viewed the war as both an opportunity for abolition and a risk to their precarious freedoms. The analysis delves into key events like the Fugitive Slave Act, the Dred Scott decision, and abolitionist activism, underscoring the complexity of Black agency and resilience in the face of systemic oppression. This work offers a nuanced understanding of Black experiences and their pivotal role in shaping the Civil War’s legacy
Life and Death on Chambersburg Street During 1955: Dr. Chester Crist as a Central Adams County Figure
Get PDFLife on Chambersburg Street in 1955 was centered around community and highlights what life in downtown Gettysburg had to offer in 1950\u27s. This essay analyzes the daily interactions different age groups had with the businesses, churches, and individuals living on the south side of the street. In particular, Dr. Chester Crist, the Coroner for Adams County, was a central elected figure in the wider Gettysburg community; his essential work on road safety and Salk polio vaccinations was well known. His involvement in the life, death, and health of the residents is a major focus

Phylotranscriptomic Relationships of the Oophila Clade of Green Algae Associated to Amphibian Egg Masses
Get PDFGreen algae usually assigned to the genus Oophila are known to colonize egg capsules of amphibian egg masses across the Nearctic and Palearctic regions. We study the phylogenetic relationships of these algae using a phylotranscriptomic data set of 76 protein-coding single-copy nuclear genes. Our data set includes novel RNAseq data for six amphibian-associated and five free-living green algae, and draft genomes of two of the latter. Within the Oophila clade (nested within Moewusinia), we find samples from two European frogs (Rana dalmatina and R. temporaria) closely related to those of the North American frog R. aurora (Oophila subclade III). An isolate from the North American R. sylvatica (subclade IV) appears to be sister to the Japanese isolate from the salamander Hynobius nigrescens (subclade J1), and subclade I algae from Ambystoma maculatum are sister to all other lineages in the Oophila clade. Two free-living algae (Chlamydomonas nasuta and Cd. pseudogloeogama) are nested within the Oophila clade, and a strain of the type species of Chlorococcum (Cc. infusionum) is related to this assemblage. Our phylotranscriptomic tree suggests that recognition of different species within the Oophila clade (“clade B” of earlier studies) is warranted, and calls for a comprehensive taxonomic revision of Moewusinia
