Abstract:

This essay explores intersections among urban history, queer history, and public history in a gentrifying southern city. I show how queer cultures flourished in Roanoke, Virginia, in the 1960s and 1970s only to be displaced by a combination of police repression, urban planning, and gentrification starting in the late 1970s and 1980s. Seeking to “Make Roanoke Queer Again,” the Southwest Virginia LGBTQ+ History Project is a community-based history initiative committed to researching and interpreting the region’s LGBTQ history. This essay argues that queer community history projects can be a form

Abstract In recent years there has been ongoing controversy in the United States regarding monuments and place names commemorating the Confederate cause in the American Civil War. The following discussion focuses on Monument Avenue in the former Confederate capital of Richmond, Virginia. This was one of the most prominent locations of Confederate commemoration until statues along the avenue began to be removed during 2020. While also needing to be seen in the immediate context of events in mid-2020, these removals followed a process of investigation and consultation carried out by Richmo

Abstract:

Whether made of stone, brick, or wood, the built environment is a bricolage of materials, skills, aesthetics, and practical needs. This dissertation disassembles the colonial and antebellum cityscape of Richmond, Virginia, into its component parts in order to better understand the relationships between builders, materials, and occupational knowledge as elements of the built environment, as well as the building culture that united them. This approach challenges the historically exalted place of architects and urban planners as the primary producers of a city, and instead focuses on the contri

Abstract:

<p> Virginia City once exemplified the cutting edge of culture and taste in the Rocky Mountain mining frontier. Weathering economic downturns, mining booms and busts, and the loss of the territorial capital to Helena, Virginia City survives today as a heritage tourism site with a substantial building stock from its period of significance, 1863-1875. However, the poor physical condition and interpretation of the town offers tourists an inauthentic experience. Without paint analysis, the Montana Heritage Commission, state-appointed caretakers of Virginia City cannot engage in rehabilitation. As

Abstract:

Richmond, Virginia, located along the fall line of the James River, was an important political boundary during prehistory; was established as an English colonial town in 1737; and was a center of the interstate slave trade and the capitol of the Confederacy during the nineteenth century. Although Richmond holds a prominent place in the narrative of American and Virginia history, the city’s archaeological resources have received incredibly little attention or preservation advocacy. However, in the wake of a 2013 proposal to construct a baseball stadium in the heart of the city’s slave trading d

Nature and culture, the unconscious and conscious, female and male join. In August 1918, Woolf recognizes in the open-ended cantos of Byron’s Don Juan, the “elastic shape” and the “random haphaz

Abstract:

At the outbreak of the Civil War, the city of Montgomery, Alabama, was chosen as the capital of the Confederacy, but in May 1861 the decision was made to move the capital to Richmond, Virginia. The move was made for a number of reasons. One was that Richmond, as one of the largest cities in the Confederacy, was a manufacturing center and in fact had more industrial capacity than the rest of the Confederacy combined. Among its industries were the Tredegar Iron Works, which provided most of the Confederacy’s munitions, and the largest flour mill in the South. Aiding the city’s industrial develop

The burgesses, convened by the governor, Sir William Berkeley, and presided over by the speaker, Captain Robert Wynne, acted in response to their perceptions of the colonists’ needs and interests.

Monuments associated with the era of slavery, in some form, can be found in most southern American communities. Whether it is a statue of a prominent slaveholder or a commemoration to Confederate Civil War dead, localities are dealing with the decision of whether to remove these objects due to their blatant ties to racism or to leave them in situ as painful reminders of a horrid time in our past. The slave auction block, located in Fredericksburg, Virginia, is one such monument. Archival and archaeological data suggests that the block was used as a signpost to advertise the sale of enslaved in

The McVeigh case combined a terrible crime with a defiantly guilty defendant and none of the problems of discrimination and uncertainty that bedevil most executions.
