I love history and this link to recent dissertations reminds me that age of militancy, cultural revolution and black power may have passed. Nonetheless and perhaps all the more,the academic subject of oppression and liberation struggles is still of value in some significant quarters.(pun intended) Whether the slave quarters or the quarter acre or the 40 acres have vibrancy as metaphors or present day neo-gentrification, scanning the citations below reminds us of the vibrant and fertile field of dreams and visions for some and deep nightmares for others.

For some it is unimaginable, but for many Black Americans oppression is a traumatically painful and psychologically disturbing reality. The following is a quantitative analysis of the relationship between oppression and trauma as it relates to adult Black Americans, in the wake of 400 years of chattel slavery, nearly 100 years of segregation and Jim Crow, and 5 more decades of overt and covert racial oppression. This study re-operationalizes our concept of trauma and quantifies the oppression-trauma relationship in a way that elucidates new understandings of the psychological state of Black Americans today. Perspectives and insights gleaned from this study, if applied in practice, should reduce the frequency of misconceptualizations and possible misdiagnoses among Black clients in mental health treatment settings.Links: http://RT4RF9QN2Y.search.serialssolutions.com/?ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&ctx_enc=info:ofi/enc:UTF-8&rfr_id=info:sid/ProQuest+Dissertations+%26+Theses+Full+Text&rft_val_fmt=info:ofi/fmt:kev:mtx:dissertation&rft.genre=dissertations+%26+theses&rft.jtitle=&rft.atitle=&rft.au=Swift%2C+Monique+D.&rft.aulast=Swift&rft.aufirst=Monique&rft.date=2011-01-01&rft.volume=&rft.issue=&rft.spage=&rft.isbn=9781124177458&rft.btitle=&rft.title=Oppression+and+trauma%3A+Examining+the+relationship+between+perceptions+of+racial+oppression+and+the+presence+of+trauma+symptoms+in+Black+Americans&rft.issn=http://RT4RF9QN2Y.search.serialssolutions.com/?ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&ctx_enc=info:ofi/enc:UTF-8&rfr_id=info:sid/ProQuest+Dissertations+%26+Theses+Full+Text&rft_val_fmt=info:ofi/fmt:kev:mtx:dissertation&rft.genre=dissertations+%26+theses&rft.jtitle=&rft.atitle=&rft.au=Swift%2C+Monique+D.&rft.aulast=Swift&rft.aufirst=Monique&rft.date=2011-01-01&rft.volume=&rft.issue=&rft.spage=&rft.isbn=9781124177458&rft.btitle=&rft.title=Oppression+and+trauma%3A+Examining+the+relationship+between+perceptions+of+racial+oppression+and+the+presence+of+trauma+symptoms+in+Black+Americans&rft.issn=Subject: African American Studies; Black studies; Social psychologyClassification: 0296: African American Studies; 0325: Black studies; 0451: Social psychologyIdentifier / keyword: Social sciences, Psychology, Racial oppression, Black Americans, Blacks, Intergenerational trauma transmission, Oppression, Posttraumatic slave syndrome, Slavery, TraumaTitle: Oppression and trauma: Examining the relationship between perceptions of racial oppression and the presence of trauma symptoms in Black AmericansNumber of pages: 74Publication year: 2011Degree date: 2012School code: 1351Source: DAI-A 71/10, Apr 2011Place of publication: Ann ArborCountry of publication: United StatesISBN: 9781124177458Advisor: Kleine, SheldonCommittee member: Heffner, Christopher, Glidewell, RebaUniversity/institution: Capella UniversityDepartment: School of PsychologyUniversity location: United States -- MinnesotaDegree: Ph.D.Source type: Dissertations & ThesesLanguage: EnglishDocument type: Dissertation/ThesisDissertation/thesis number: 3418883ProQuest document ID: 756956901Document URL: http://pitt.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.proquest.com/docview/756956901?accountid=14709Copyright: Copyright ProQuest, UMI Dissertations Publishing 2011Database: ProQuest Dissertations & Theses Full Text____________________________________________________________Document 2 of 5Submission, suffering, and God: Enslaved Christian women's identity in the American antebellum period, 1830--1865Author: Jones, Pamela JamesPublication info: The University of Chicago, ProQuest, UMI Dissertations Publishing, 2010. 3419653.http://pitt.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.proquest.com/docview/756364028?accountid=14709Abstract: This study examines the roles, values, quotidian struggles, and inner spiritual lives of enslaved women.

Major conspiracy scares have long been understood as slaves' failed attempts at organized rebellion. Increasingly, however--in cases from eighteenth-century New York to nineteenth-century Charleston--scholars have debated whether any given panic was an authentic averted plot or an overreaction to a false alarm. This dissertation pushes beyond the narrow question of whether or not slaves intended to rebel, which is based on our own modern liberal assumptions about the possibility and value of collective violence. Instead, the present study utilizes 87 known conspiracy panics, whether initiated by masters or slaves, to open up new interpretations of the fear that permeated precarious colonial slave societies. My research relies on an archive of investigation records, trial minutes, government reports, and private correspondence to unearth and contextualize how blacks and whites understood the prospect of insurrection. I have discovered that an evolving collection of shared imaginings, derived from empirical experience and literary representation, shaped the anticipation of insurrection and the unfolding of conspiracy panics in British colonies throughout North America and the Caribbean. In particular, white settlers insisted, and enslaved blacks confessed, that several features consistently marked slave conspiracies--including, for example, ambushes at decoy fires, incitement by non-slave instigators(often Catholic agents), and secret officer lists written in the style of an English militia. Recurring elements such as these came to be instrumental in sparking and fueling conspiracy panics, and played a part in attempts at making sense of them afterward. The present dissertation re-envisions purported slave conspiracies as culturally constructed group panics rather than straightforward signals of rebellion. This clarification reveals that, whatever limited violence the enslaved may have intended, common cultural scripts immediately took over in guiding the anticipation, experience, and memory of plots and insurrections as narrowly avoided catastrophes. The fears that blacks and whites articulated during conspiracy panics were schematic diagrams mapping out a society's own understanding of its strengths and weaknesses: slaveholders articulated precisely how they believed their control could be overturned, thus communicating the essence of what they perceived to be their own position's drawbacks and advantages. Attending to the coherence of slave conspiracy discourse advances our understanding of slave society by demonstrating the degree to which slavery, and its anxieties, were embedded within contexts usually considered unconnected to enslavement--including anti-Catholic ideology, inter-imperial rivalry, diasporic African social practices, English juridical culture, and an array of literary forms. And slaves, for their part, played a crucial role in voicing these fears of their masters.Links: http://RT4RF9QN2Y.search.serialssolutions.com/?ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&ctx_enc=info:ofi/enc:UTF-8&rfr_id=info:sid/ProQuest+Dissertations+%26+Theses+Full+Text&rft_val_fmt=info:ofi/fmt:kev:mtx:dissertation&rft.genre=dissertations+%26+theses&rft.jtitle=&rft.atitle=&rft.au=Sharples%2C+Jason+T.&rft.aulast=Sharples&rft.aufirst=Jason&rft.date=2010-01-01&rft.volume=&rft.issue=&rft.spage=&rft.isbn=9781124231433&rft.btitle=&rft.title=The+flames+of+insurrection%3A+Fearing+slave+conspiracy+in+early+America+1670-1780&rft.issn=http://RT4RF9QN2Y.search.serialssolutions.com/?ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&ctx_enc=info:ofi/enc:UTF-8&rfr_id=info:sid/ProQuest+Dissertations+%26+Theses+Full+Text&rft_val_fmt=info:ofi/fmt:kev:mtx:dissertation&rft.genre=dissertations+%26+theses&rft.jtitle=&rft.atitle=&rft.au=Sharples%2C+Jason+T.&rft.aulast=Sharples&rft.aufirst=Jason&rft.date=2010-01-01&rft.volume=&rft.issue=&rft.spage=&rft.isbn=9781124231433&rft.btitle=&rft.title=The+flames+of+insurrection%3A+Fearing+slave+conspiracy+in+early+America+1670-1780&rft.issn=Subject: American studies; American history; Ethnic studiesClassification: 0323: American studies; 0337: American history; 0631: Ethnic studiesIdentifier / keyword: Social sciences, Slave conspiracy, Colonial AmericaTitle: The flames of insurrection: Fearing slave conspiracy in early America 1670-1780Number of pages: 399Publication year: 2010Degree date: 2010School code: 0181Source: DAI-A 71/10, Apr 2011Place of publication: Ann ArborCountry of publication: United StatesISBN: 9781124231433Advisor: Colley, LindaUniversity/institution: Princeton UniversityUniversity location: United States -- New JerseyDegree: Ph.D.Source type: Dissertations & ThesesLanguage: EnglishDocument type: Dissertation/ThesisDissertation/thesis number: 3424095ProQuest document ID: 756757634Document URL: http://pitt.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.proquest.com/docview/756757634?accountid=14709Copyright: Copyright ProQuest, UMI Dissertations Publishing 2010Database: ProQuest Dissertations & Theses Full Text____________________________________________________________Document 4 of 5The Fool's Paradox: Race, religion, and radicalism in the writings of Albion Winegar TourgeeAuthor: Lomas, Leslie SingerPublication info: University of Colorado at Boulder, ProQuest, UMI Dissertations Publishing, 2010. 3419486.http://pitt.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.proquest.com/docview/755601805?accountid=14709Abstract: This dissertation is an intellectual biography of the American author, lawyer, and civil rights advocate Albion Winegar Tourgée, perhaps the most adamant and least-remembered white defender of African-American rights of the late nineteenth century. In addition to producing an enormous literary output on race relations and other political issues of his time, he served as counsel for the plaintiffs in the landmark Supreme Court case, Plessy v. Ferguson. This study examines Tourgée's public and private writings over the 25-year period of his writing career and focusses on analyzing contradictory elements in his ideas regarding racial equality. On the one hand, it looks at his absorption of pervasive, contemporaneous beliefs about race, social evolution, civilization, and progress, which are defined as conservative because of their qualities of ethnocentrism, hierarchy, and moral absolutism. It contrasts these to egalitarian components of his thought, including his demands for equal rights, his relativist analysis of American attitudes and social relations, and his criticisms of racial theory, Social Darwinism, and the acquiescence of political and religious institutions to discriminatory race relations. It also presents Tourgée as an early exponent of Social Christianity and shows how he formulated a Christian philosophy that enabled him to resolve those ideological contradictions and to delegitimize contemporary beliefs about race on ethical grounds. Previous work on Tourgée has not included an examination of these contradictory elements, nor brought out the centrality of his Social Christian ideas.Links: http://RT4RF9QN2Y.search.serialssolutions.com/?ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&ctx_enc=info:ofi/enc:UTF-8&rfr_id=info:sid/ProQuest+Dissertations+%26+Theses+Full+Text&rft_val_fmt=info:ofi/fmt:kev:mtx:dissertation&rft.genre=dissertations+%26+theses&rft.jtitle=&rft.atitle=&rft.au=Lomas%2C+Leslie+Singer&rft.aulast=Lomas&rft.aufirst=Leslie&rft.date=2010-01-01&rft.volume=&rft.issue=&rft.spage=&rft.isbn=9781124194431&rft.btitle=&rft.title=The+Fool%27s+Paradox%3A+Race%2C+religion%2C+and+radicalism+in+the+writings+of+Albion+Winegar+Tourgee&rft.issn=http://RT4RF9QN2Y.search.serialssolutions.com/?ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&ctx_enc=info:ofi/enc:UTF-8&rfr_id=info:sid/ProQuest+Dissertations+%26+Theses+Full+Text&rft_val_fmt=info:ofi/fmt:kev:mtx:dissertation&rft.genre=dissertations+%26+theses&rft.jtitle=&rft.atitle=&rft.au=Lomas%2C+Leslie+Singer&rft.aulast=Lomas&rft.aufirst=Leslie&rft.date=2010-01-01&rft.volume=&rft.issue=&rft.spage=&rft.isbn=9781124194431&rft.btitle=&rft.title=The+Fool%27s+Paradox%3A+Race%2C+religion%2C+and+radicalism+in+the+writings+of+Albion+Winegar+Tourgee&rft.issn=Subject: African American Studies; Black history; American historyClassification: 0296: African American Studies; 0328: Black history; 0337: American historyIdentifier / keyword: Social sciences, Civil rights, Plessy, Homer, Race relations, Social christianity, Tourgee, Albion WinegarTitle: The Fool's Paradox: Race, religion, and radicalism in the writings of Albion Winegar TourgeeNumber of pages: 548Publication year: 2010Degree date: 2010School code: 0051Source: DAI-A 71/10, Apr 2011Place of publication: Ann ArborCountry of publication: United StatesISBN: 9781124194431Advisor: Mann, RalphCommittee member: Sutter, Paul S., Chambers, Lee, Pittenger, Mark, Baird, VanessaUniversity/institution: University of Colorado at BoulderDepartment: HistoryUniversity location: United States -- ColoradoDegree: Ph.D.Source type: Dissertations & ThesesLanguage: EnglishDocument type: Dissertation/ThesisDissertation/thesis number: 3419486ProQuest document ID: 755601805Document URL: http://pitt.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.proquest.com/docview/755601805?accountid=14709Copyright: Copyright ProQuest, UMI Dissertations Publishing 2010Database: ProQuest Dissertations & Theses Full Text____________________________________________________________Document 5 of 5All reform depends upon you: Femininity, authority, and the politics of authorship in women's antislavery fiction, 1821--1861Author: Kent, Holly M.Publication info: Lehigh University, ProQuest, UMI Dissertations Publishing, 2010. 3419368.http://pitt.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.proquest.com/docview/756246352?accountid=14709Abstract: In this dissertation, I argue that fiction provided white antislavery and proslavery women writers with a significant public space in which to articulate their ideas about the need to destroy (or uphold) the institution of slavery. 1 Living in a culture that often discouraged white, middle-class women from extensive public commentary on "political" subjects and virtually excluded women from public platforms, these activists turned to fiction as an appropriately "feminine" means of offering sustained reflections about slavery and abolition. This dissertation also argues that white antislavery and proslavery women writers' fiction offered a problematic but nonetheless significant challenge to the racial and gendered order of the antebellum era. Representing their enslaved female characters as virtuous citizens and faithful anti- and proslavery advocates, these writers questioned a social order that unrelentingly subordinated such women to (morally inferior) white men. Finally, in this project I maintain that proslavery and antislavery women writers articulated and developed a unique form of difference feminism in their fiction. In their stories and novels, these authors insisted that morally clear-sighted women's (and not morally unsound men's) ideals needed to shape public policies and political decisions about slavery. Getting their male family members and friends to think rightly on the slave question effectively would ensure that these men would fight for its continuation, without women themselves having to become involved in the actual business of politics. 1 Throughout this dissertation, the terms "antislavery" and "abolitionist" are used interchangeably. Each historian working on abolitionism and the antislavery movement uses these terms differently, with some (as I have chosen to do here) using them synonymously, and others using the terms to make arguments about different groups within the fight to end slavery. In his 2003 monograph Free Hearts and Free Homes: Gender and Antislavery Politics, for example, Michael Pierson uses "antislavery" to describe more socially conservative, politically oriented members of the movement and "abolitionist" to indicate more radical individuals. That distinction is not one that I am drawing upon here. See Michael Pierson, Free Hearts and Free Homes: Gender and American Antislavery Politics (Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press, 2003).Links: http://RT4RF9QN2Y.search.serialssolutions.com/?ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&ctx_enc=info:ofi/enc:UTF-8&rfr_id=info:sid/ProQuest+Dissertations+%26+Theses+Full+Text&rft_val_fmt=info:ofi/fmt:kev:mtx:dissertation&rft.genre=dissertations+%26+theses&rft.jtitle=&rft.atitle=&rft.au=Kent%2C+Holly+M.&rft.aulast=Kent&rft.aufirst=Holly&rft.date=2010-01-01&rft.volume=&rft.issue=&rft.spage=&rft.isbn=9781124192581&rft.btitle=&rft.title=All+reform+depends+upon+you%3A+Femininity%2C+authority%2C+and+the+politics+of+authorship+in+women%27s+antislavery+fiction%2C+1821--1861&rft.issn=http://RT4RF9QN2Y.search.serialssolutions.com/?ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&ctx_enc=info:ofi/enc:UTF-8&rfr_id=info:sid/ProQuest+Dissertations+%26+Theses+Full+Text&rft_val_fmt=info:ofi/fmt:kev:mtx:dissertation&rft.genre=dissertations+%26+theses&rft.jtitle=&rft.atitle=&rft.au=Kent%2C+Holly+M.&rft.aulast=Kent&rft.aufirst=Holly&rft.date=2010-01-01&rft.volume=&rft.issue=&rft.spage=&rft.isbn=9781124192581&rft.btitle=&rft.title=All+reform+depends+upon+you%3A+Femininity%2C+authority%2C+and+the+politics+of+authorship+in+women%27s+antislavery+fiction%2C+1821--1861&rft.issn=Subject: American history; Womens studies; American literatureClassification: 0337: American history; 0453: Womens studies; 0591: American literatureIdentifier / keyword: Social sciences, Language, literature and linguistics, Abolitionism, Antebellum era, Fiction, Women's activism, Antislavery fictionTitle: All reform depends upon you: Femininity, authority, and the politics of authorship in women's antislavery fiction, 1821--1861Number of pages: 475Publication year: 2010Degree date: 2010School code: 0105Source: DAI-A 71/10, Apr 2011Place of publication: Ann ArborCountry of publication: United StatesISBN: 9781124192581Advisor: Najar, MonicaCommittee member: Cooper, Gail, Keetley, Dawn, Soderlund, JeanUniversity/institution: Lehigh UniversityDepartment: HistoryUniversity location: United States -- PennsylvaniaDegree: Ph.D.Source type: Dissertations & ThesesLanguage: EnglishDocument type: Dissertation/ThesisDissertation/thesis number: 3419368ProQuest document ID: 756246352Table of contents1.
