MACE: Automated Assessment of Stereochemistry of Transition Metal Complexes and Its Applications in Computational Catalysis
No full textComputational chemistry pipelines typically commence with geometry generation, well-established for organic compounds but presenting a considerable challenge for transition metal complexes. This paper introduces MACE, an automated computational workflow for converting chemist SMILES/MOL representations of the ligands and the metal center to 3D coordinates for all feasible stereochemical configurations for mononuclear octahedral and square planar complexes directly suitable for quantum chemical computations and implementation in high-throughput computational chemistry workflows. The workflow is validated through a structural screening of a data set of transition metal complexes extracted from the Cambridge Structural Database. To further illustrate the power and capabilities of MACE, we present the results of a model DFT study on the hemilability of pincer ligands in Ru, Fe, and Mn complexes, which highlights the utility of the workflow for both focused mechanistic studies and larger-scale high-throughput pipelines.ChemE/Inorganic Systems Engineerin

In Remembrance of Emmett Till: Regional Stories and Media Responses to the Black Freedom Struggle
No full textOn August 28, 1955, fourteen-year-old Chicago native Emmett Till was brutally beaten to death for allegedly flirting with a white woman at a grocery store in Money, Mississippi. Roy Bryant and J. W. Milam were acquitted of murdering Till and dumping his body in the Tallahatchie River, and later that year, an all-white grand jury chose not to indict the men on kidnapping charges. A few months later, Bryant and Milam admitted to the crime in an interview with the national media. They were never convicted.
Although Till’s body was mutilated, his mother ordered that his casket remain open during the funeral service so that the country could observe the results of racially motivated violence in the Deep South. Media attention focused on the lynching fanned the flames of regional tension and impelled many individuals—including Rosa Parks—to become vocal activists for racial equality.
In this innovative study, Darryl Mace explores media coverage of Till’s murder and provides a close analysis of the regional and racial perspectives that emerged. He investigates the portrayal of the trial in popular and black newspapers in Mississippi and the South, documents posttrial reactions, and examines Till’s memorialization in the press to highlight the media’s role in shaping regional and national opinions. Provocative and compelling, In Remembrance of Emmett Till provides a valuable new perspective on one of the sparks that ignited the civil rights movement.
Darryl Mace is associate professor and chair in the Department of History and Political Science at Cabrini College.
Well-conceived and well-executed. Mace delineates the \u27situational\u27 regionalism that arose during the Emmett Till Coverage, that it was not static, but rather the coverage was a response to people’s views of the place in which they lived and how their locale compared to the rest of the nation. This book provides a textual analysis of the coverage of Emmett Till’s lynching, funeral, trial, post-trial reactions; and memorials of Till found in popular mainstream newspapers and popular black newspapers. -- Deborah F. Atwater, author of The Rhetoric of African American Women
Mace\u27s writing is clear and accessible. He offers interesting and valuable insight into the varied media coverage of Emmett Till’s lynching and what it illustrates about racial attitudes across the country. -- Emilye Crosby, author of A Little Taste of Freedom and editor of Civil Rights History from the Ground Up
Historians have long-agreed with David Halberstam that the lynching of Emmett Till and the trial of his murderers was ‘the first great media event of the civil rights movement.’ Until now, however, no one has made the case as thoroughly and persuasively as Darryl Mace does in this landmark study. His exhaustive analysis of the national and regional newspaper coverage is a model of careful and creative scholarship, and if you want to understand how the Till lynching helped to change our national conversation about race, you would do well to begin here. -- Christopher Metress, editor of The Lynching of Emmett Till: A Documentary Narrative
Mace gives readers ample opportunity to understand why Till\u27s violent death wasn\u27t just another senseless murder, why the U.S. was ripe for Civil Rights progress made in the decade after his slaying; and how the press, especially sixty years ago, served its public. -- Terri Schilenmeyer -- Tennessee Tribune
He reminds us just how important the Till murder and trial were for the future of the Freedom Struggle… [Mace] still helps keep this story alive. -- Southern Spaces
[A] much-needed addition to the Till literature[. . . . B]y the time I finished In Remembrance of Emmett Till, I was struck, powerfully so, by the impact of racism rather than regionalism on the writing of Emmett Till’s memory. -- American Historical Reviewhttps://uknowledge.uky.edu/upk_african_american_studies/1032/thumbnail.jp

Falling Knives and Runaround Wives
No full textSet over the hectic, unforgiving season of Christmas and New Year, 'Falling Knives and Runaround Wives' unfolds with four very different women caught in the eye of a storm. Tricia is about to leave her beloved job as her fifteen year old daughter is pregnant; Gillian, Tricia's cousin, has left her hubby for her lesbian lover (much to her mother's horror); debt ridden Michelle is being cheated on, again, by her wayward husband, and Susan tries to hold her life together despite being regularly beaten by her violent partner. Their common goal is the determination to put on a rip-roaring New Years' show as an ABBA Tribute band!
The play was co-created by Catrina McHugh and Kathryn Mace and directed by Fiona Macpherson. It toured regionally in 2001 and 2006 and nationally in 2002
