    Two decades before the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints began official missionary work in West Africa, pamphlets, books, and other church materials had been circulating among Christians in Nigeria and Ghana. Brought by seekers who had studied abroad or encountered church members from other countries, those texts formed the basis for a Mormon community outside the bounds of U.S. institutional authority or oversight. What did this international Mormonism look like, and how did believers craft churches out of the bare materials of tracts and inspirational volumes? Laurie F. Maffly-Kipp explores the circulation and interpretation of this homegrown Mormon faith in the 1960s and 1970s and concludes with the dilemmas raised by the religious self-fashioning of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints establishment after 1978. The Arrington Lecture series, established by one of the twentieth-century West's most distinguished historians, Leonard Arrington, has become a leading forum for prominent historians to address topics related to Mormon history. Utah State University hosts the Leonard J. Arrington Mormon History Lecture Series through the Merrill-Cazier Library Special Collections and Archives department.

    "The Dual Enrollment Kaleidoscope is a starting point for elevating the voices of those who historicize, legitimize, scrutinize, critically analyze, align, and assess dual enrollment (DE) work, pushing readers beyond singular views of DE first-year composition and positioning DE's impact on composition instruction as one that shifts dependent upon perspective"--

  • - The Story of Keyes V. Denver Public Schools
    av Pat Pascoe
    329 - 405,-

    A Dream of Justice is Colorado state senator and former teacher Pat Pascoe's firsthand account of the decades-long fight to desegregate Denver's public schools. Drawing on oral histories and interviews with members of the legal community, parents, and students, as well as extensive institutional records, Pascoe offers a compelling social history of Keyes v. School District No. 1 (Denver). Pascoe details Denver's desegregation battle, beginning with the citizen studies that exposed the inequities of segregated schools and Rachel Noel's resolution to integrate the system, followed by the momentous pro-integration Benton-Pascoe campaign of Ed Benton and Monte Pascoe for the school board in 1969. When segregationists won that election and reversed the integration plan for northeast Denver, Black, white, and Latino parents filed Keyes v. School District No. 1. This book follows the arguments in the case through briefs, transcripts, and decisions from district court to the Supreme Court of the United States and back, to its ultimate order to desegregate all Denver schools "root and branch." It was the first northern city desegregation suit to be brought before the Supreme Court. However, with the end of court-ordered busing in 1995, schools quickly resegregated and are now more segregated than before Keyes was filed. Pascoe asserts that school integration is a necessary step toward eliminating systemic racism in our country and should be the objective of every school board. A Dream of Justice will appeal to students, scholars, and readers interested in the history of civil rights in America, Denver history, and the history of US education.

    "Challenges the homogenizing (mis)understandings of knowledge construction and provides a complex discussion of what happens when we do not attend to embodied rhetorical theories. Language is always a reflection of culture, to attempt to erase language and knowledge that reflect minoritized and historically excluded cultural experiences obscures the legitimacy of such experiences both within and outside the academy"--
