In October 2001, for example, Attorney General John Ashcroft sent a memo to government agencies urging them to resist Freedom of Information Act requests. Bush followed up the next month with Executive Order 13233, which had the euphemistic title "Further Implementation of the Presidential Records Act"—actually a gutting of the Presidential Records Act (PRA) of 1978. In the words of Bruce Craig of the National Coalition for History (NCH), which has been leading the fight against the directive, "the order reverses the premise of public access built ... <a href="https://muse.jhu.edu/article/172236">Read More</a> Project MUSE® https://muse.jhu.edu/ 2026-05-17T00:00:00-05:00 https://muse.jhu.edu/journal/173/image/coversmall The Abusable Past 2004-08-26 text/html en-US The Abusable Past 2004-08-26 2004 TWO Project MUSE® 12933 2026-05-17T00:00:00-05:00 2004-08-26 Difference, Disease, and Democracy https://muse.jhu.edu/article/172229 James Jones, Bad Blood: The Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment (1981; New York: Free Press, 1993).

The first, the release of Mel Gibson's film The Passion of the Christ, instigated numerous discussions, in both the religious and secular media, of everything from charges of anti-Semitism to critiques that Gibson's literal-minded interpretation of the story of Jesus willfully ignores a half century of new interpretations of the New Testament by modern Catholics and even the Vatican. At approximately the same moment, George W. Bush declared his support for a constitutional amendment that ... <a href="https://muse.jhu.edu/article/172236">Read More</a> Project MUSE® https://muse.jhu.edu/ 2026-05-17T00:00:00-05:00 https://muse.jhu.edu/journal/173/image/coversmall Editors' Introduction 2004-08-26 text/html en-US Editors' Introduction 2004-08-26 2004 TWO Project MUSE® 12926 2026-05-17T00:00:00-05:00 2004-08-26 Scholar, Activist, Organizer: An Interview with Richard Moser https://muse.jhu.edu/article/172232 Richard Moser earned his PhD from Rutgers University in 1992. Until 1998, he was an associate professor of American history at Middle Tennessee State University.

Moser joined the national staff of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) in 1998 and has devoted much of his energy to issues relating to the abuse and overuse of part-time, or contingent, faculty.

R. Adkisson, a Gideon, Missouri, landlord, from his home on the night of November 1, 1915, and led him into a nearby cotton field. There the band of night riders threw Adkisson to the ground, held him at gunpoint, and whipped him with makeshift clubs. After beating and threatening Adkisson for more than an hour, the vigilantes chased him into the darkness with shotgun fire.1 This assault on Adkisson was one in a series of violent attacks in late 1915 on large landholders and lumber barons in southeast Missouri, commonly known as the Bootheel, by a shadowy, unnamed band of tenant farmers and mill hands intent on lowering rent, raising wages, and expelling African American ... <a href="https://muse.jhu.edu/article/172236">Read More</a> Project MUSE® https://muse.jhu.edu/ 2026-05-17T00:00:00-05:00 https://muse.jhu.edu/journal/173/image/coversmall From Revolution to Reaction: Early Pentecostalism, Radicalism, and Race in Southeast Missouri, 1910-1930 2004-08-26 text/html en-US From Revolution to Reaction: Early Pentecostalism, Radicalism, and Race in Southeast Missouri, 1910-1930 2004-08-26 2004 TWO Project MUSE® 143183 2026-05-17T00:00:00-05:00 2004-08-26 Jams of Consequence: Rethinking the Jazz Age in Japan and China https://muse.jhu.edu/article/172234 Among the emerging literature on jazz in Europe in the first half of the twentieth century we find the following essays and books: Jeffrey H.

Noting that "we may be able to both save and quickly search through all of the products of our culture," he asks, "Will abundance bring better or more thoughtful history?"1 This question is one with which we will be grappling for some time into the future. For now, I would like to relate a recent experience I had of relying primarily on the Internet to track down what I am referring to as "the case of the phantom Soviet ... <a href="https://muse.jhu.edu/article/172236">Read More</a> Project MUSE® https://muse.jhu.edu/ 2026-05-17T00:00:00-05:00 https://muse.jhu.edu/journal/173/image/coversmall The Case of the Phantom Soviet Truck 2004-08-26 text/html en-US The Case of the Phantom Soviet Truck 2004-08-26 2004 TWO Project MUSE® 48111 2026-05-17T00:00:00-05:00 2004-08-26 Race, Reason, Impasse: Cesaire, Fanon, and the Legacy of Emancipation https://muse.jhu.edu/article/172236 On April 27, 1948, Aimé Césaire, along with Gaston Monnerville and Léopold Senghor, addressed an audience gathered at the Sorbonne, including the president of France, Vincent Auriol, to commemorate the one hundredth anniversary of the abolition of slavery. These prominent colonial citizens, all members of the National Assembly, were clearly meant to embody the collaboration envisioned by the post-World War II attempt to reconfigure the empire under a new rubric, the French Union. French officials hoped that commemoration would affirm a tradition of republican tolerance and imperial benevolence at a moment when the post-World War I figure of "greater France" was under attack by currents of radical anticolonial ... <a href="https://muse.jhu.edu/article/172236">Read More</a> Project MUSE® https://muse.jhu.edu/ 2026-05-17T00:00:00-05:00 https://muse.jhu.edu/journal/173/image/coversmall Race, Reason, Impasse: Cesaire, Fanon, and the Legacy of Emancipation 2004-08-26 text/html en-US Race, Reason, Impasse: Cesaire, Fanon, and the Legacy of Emancipation 2004-08-26 2004 TWO Project MUSE® 164986 2026-05-17T00:00:00-05:00 2004-08-26
