Eli Nichols letter to Benjamin Lundy, March 17th, 1839
No full textFriendly note from Eli Nichols to Benjamin Lundy covering topics in contemporary abolition, ranging from the social status of abolitionists to the oppression of the poor. Much of the letter concerns a review of contemporary social movements in equality-based education, including Shaker and Quaker communities. The letter concludes in discussion of Nichols' and Lundy's interest in forming a freed slave colony or community in then-Mexico, and describes the climate and culture of those regions in detail. Benjamin Lundy (1789-1839) was a prominent Quaker abolitionist best known for his development of abolitionist periodicals. His Genius of Universal Emancipation was first published in 1821 from his home in Mt. Pleasant, Ohio, and enjoyed a wide circulation across the antebellum United States. In the 1820s, the young William Lloyd Garrison came to work for The Genius. Benjamin Lundy traveled widely seeking subscriptions to The Genius, giving talks about the anti-slavery movement, and observing and documenting the conditions of enslaved people across the Americas. He was also involved in the establishment of freed slave colonies in Mexico

Note from Grace Nichols to Joseph R. Goodman, July 23, 1942
No full textNote from Grace Nichols to Joseph R. Goodman: "Joe: One of the really big objection to Pinedale as I see it, was the fact that it was one of the few centers - possibly the only one - that flatly refused to grant freedom of worship. Buddhist and other non-Christian groups were forbidden to hold services of any kind. This seems not to have been generally known, but Calvin and Grace Cope had this report from Eddie and Gordie's parents in the conversation held with them prior to your visit, and was, I believe, verified by the camp administration in course of a conversation regarding whether or not to the people would be permitted to have their Bibles since they were in Japanese. The answer was that Bibles in Japanese or otherwise would be allowed but nothing else in the Japanese language. I use past tense in speaking of Pinedale because it is being moved at the present time. All former residents of Oregon and Washington to Tule lake and the balance to Poston. Turlock is in process of moving to Gila. Lincoln's letter to Dr. Palmer is still in process of being copied but will try to get it in the mail tomorrow - GN."Personal correspondence, organizational records, government documents, publications, and other papers created or collected by Joseph R.

Hopf Quivers and Nichols Algebras in Positive Characteristic
No full textWe apply a combinatorial formula of the first author and Rosso, for products in Hopf quiver algebras, to determine the structure of Nichols algebras. We illustrate this technique by explicitly constructing new examples of Nichols algebras in positive characteristic. We further describe the corresponding Radford biproducts and some liftings of these biproducts, which are new finite dimensional pointed Hopf algebras
