Mental Health Consequences of September 11: A Five-Year Review of the Behavioral Sciences Literature
This publication provides an overview of studies conducted on different segments of the population and the psychological reactions of respondents to the devastating events of September 11, 2001.

To this end, a comprehensive review of the medical and psychological literature was conducted in order to retrieve original research, peer-reviewed journal articles published between October 2001 and December 2006. Findings suggest that the September 2001 terrorist attacks attributed to widespread psychological and emotional problems.Mardikian, Jackie; Mental Health Consequences of September 11: A Five-Year Review of the Behavioral Sciences Literature. 2007

Jackie Robinson broke Major League Baseball's color barrier in 1947, changing the great American sport forever and inspiring future generations to emulate his courage, his commitment and his decency. No other book about Jackie Robinson presents him as fully and truthfully as How to Be Like Jackie Robinson and none is as uplifting. Drawing on more than 1,100 interviews with Jackie's family and friends, his teammates and opponents, and the people whose lives he touched and shaped, author Williams shows how Jackie's life and the values he embodied serve as models for us all.--From publisher description
Jackie, Warren, and Kathy Gillespie
This 1962 photograph, taken by Asheville Citizen-Times photographer June Glenn, Jr. (1921-2006), shows Jackie, Warren, and Kathy Gillespie with another girl singing in the Mountain Youth Jamboree. Founder and director of the Mountain Youth Jamboree, Hubert H. Hayes (1901-1964) auditioned and directed youth to perform in folk dance, music, and folk and ballad singing. The jamboree was held in the Asheville City Auditorium (now known as Thomas Wolfe Auditorium) from 1948 to 1973, and Hayes’ wife, Leona Trantham Hayes (1913-1989) continued to direct the program after his death in 1964. Hubert Hayes was an author, playwright, and alumni of Duke University
A Necessary Signifier: The Adaptation of Robinson's Body-Image in "The Jackie Robinson Story"
The essay singles out The Jackie Robinson Story, as an iconophiliac adaptation driven by the authorizing and authenticating presence of Robinson's body on screen, which functions as both the ‘source material’ and its ‘adaptation’. It argues that the film needs to be appreciated within a larger nexus of texts indicated as ‘The Jackie Robinson Story,’ revealing a larger process of embodiment of the integration drama grafted onto Robinson’s body-image in the years preceding and following the release of the film. Read in the context of Robinson’s presence in post World War II visual culture as emblem of the successful realization of its color blind utopias, ‘The Jackie Robinson Story’ appears to participate in the process of visual accommodation that brought the assimilationist imagination to elect Robinson’s body as the signifier of yet another adaptation process: the incarnated visuality of the integration drama itself.The version of record of this article is published as: Raengo, A. (2008). A Necessary Signifier: The Body as Author and Text in The Jackie Robinson Story. Adaptation. Journal of Literature on Screen Studies, 1(2), 79-105. DOI: 10.1093/adaptation/apn019
