    The Rail Splitters of Brown County: Alan and Porter Richards

    No full text
    Generations of Alan Richards’ family has lived in Brown County, where log houses and split-rail fences have remained part of the landscape. Once his grandchildren were old enough, he recruited them to help him split rails at the local Antique Tractor and Gas Engine Show in Nashville. This video was shot of Alan and his grandson Porter splitting rails at an Arts in the Parks event at TC Steele State Historic Site. From straight grain red and black oak trees, Alan starts to split the log with an ax; once the log cracks, Porter uses a set of wooden wedges and splitting maul to cleanly split the length of the log. They repeat this until the log is split into quarters. They can spend all day transforming a pile of logs into a length of fence.Traditional Arts Indiana, Indiana Arts Commission, National Endowment for the Art

    Letter from Kay Yamashita to Pooh at the Sakai house, written from Topaz incarceration camp. Yamashita mentions the Student Relocation Council and activities of the Fellowship of Reconciliation, a scheduled visit from Caleb Foote, and the arrival of a new teacher at the camp high school, F.O.R. member Mary McMillan. Yamashita asks if Joe [Joseph R. Goodman] would be willing to come teach at the high school. Kay also writes of lack of adequate heating in the cold weather, and of censorship of the camp newsletter: "If you get a hold of one of our Topaz Times, now a daily news sheet, don't believe all - it's highly censored - about as much as our Tanforan newspaper was - they're afraid to let anything unpleasant or detrimental to the administration out." Yamashita also mention lack of available or willing workers for farm labor in the camp.Personal correspondence, organizational records, government documents, publications, and other papers created or collected by Joseph R. Goodman documenting the forced removal and incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II, as well as organized resistance to incarceration. Included in the collection are records of the Japanese Young Men's Christian Association and the Japanese American Citizens' League in San Francisco, including papers of the Japanese YMCA's executive secretary Lincoln Kanai; Sakai family papers; Goodman's correspondence to and from Japanese American incarcerees, organizations opposing forced removal and incarceration of Japanese Americans, the War Relocation Authority, and others; publications, photographs, and ephemera from the Topaz Relocation Center, where Goodman taught high school; War Relocation Authority records and publications; and newspaper clippings, pamphlets, and reports about forced removal and incarceration created by various government, religious, and civic organizations, in California and nationwide

Her reputation, however, has only recently begun to reemerge from the long shadow cast over it by her struggle against McCarthyism, returning to American letters some of the most vigorous writing of this centuryIn Joan Mellen's groundbreaking and provocative biography of Kay Boyle - the first ever - the full sweep of her remarkable life is revealed.
