Boutwell, Delivered at the National Liberty Congress of Anti-Imperialists at Indianapolis, Ind., August 15-16, 1900 How is this to be done? 1 have no disguises. In my youth I turned aside and left the old Democratic party when it surrendered itself to slavery. I leave the Republi can party in my age, now that it has surrendered itself to imperialism and tyranny. I helped to create the Republi can party because I believed it was a party of justice and libcity and honesty I now believe that it is a party of injustice and of despotism, and I will help to destroy it. And how? There is but one available means. You know what it is. Then President Lincoln thought that a change in the command of the army was necessary he placed Fighting Joe Hooker at the head of the Army of the Potomac, and he wrote to him thus I have heard that you have said that I ought to proclaim myself Dic tator. I have not appointed you to the command of the Army of the Potomac because of that remark, but in spite of it. He thought that Hooker could command the Army of the Potomac and so aid more than any one else in the suppression of the Rebellion, and he ever looked the words of the hero of many battles.

Book The Uncommon Commoner

Download or read book The Uncommon Commoner written by Dante Joseph Basista and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a study of the correspondence and published writings of three-time Democratic Presidential nominee William Jennings Bryan in relation to his role in the anti-imperialist movement that opposed the US acquisition of the Philippines, Guam and Puerto Rico following the Spanish-American War. Historians have disagreed over whether Bryan was genuine in his opposition to an American empire in the 1900 presidential election and have overlooked the period following the election in which Bryan's editorials opposing imperialism were a major part of his weekly newspaper, The Commoner. The argument is made that Bryan was authentic in his opposition to imperialism in the 1900 presidential election, as proven by his attention to the issue in the two years following his election loss. Following Bryan's loss to William McKinley in the presidential race of 1900, the anti- imperialist cause which dominated his campaign seemed lost and his position in the movement was questioned. Despite this "low ebb," as historians have termed it, in his political career, Bryan's anti-imperialist articles in The Commoner remained central to the movement's rhetoric and his correspondence suggests that he continued to receive support for his stance on imperialism. Analysis of Bryan's thoughts on imperialism during this period illuminate his commitment to the issue and further provide evidence of a sizable minority of the American who supported Bryan's views.

Download or read book Empire for Liberty written by Richard H. Immerman and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How could the United States, a nation founded on the principles of liberty and equality, have produced Abu Ghraib, torture memos, Plamegate, and warrantless wiretaps? Did America set out to become an empire? And if so, how has it reconciled its imperialism--and in some cases, its crimes--with the idea of liberty so forcefully expressed in the Declaration of Independence? Empire for Liberty tells the story of men who used the rhetoric of liberty to further their imperial ambitions, and reveals that the quest for empire has guided the nation's architects from the very beginning--and continues to do so today.

Book Model Minority Imperialism

Download or read book Model Minority Imperialism written by Victor Bascara and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the beginning of the twentieth century, soon after the conclusion of the Spanish-American War, the United States was an imperialistic nation, maintaining (often with the assistance of military force) a far-flung and growing empire. After a long period of collective national amnesia regarding American colonialism, in the Philippines and elsewhere, scholars have resurrected the power of “empire” as a way of revealing American history and culture. Focusing on the terms of Asian American assimilation and the rise of the model-minority myth, Victor Bascara examines the resurgence of empire as a tool for acknowledging—and understanding—the legacy of American imperialism. Model-Minority Imperialism links geopolitical dramas of twentieth-century empire building with domestic controversies of U.S. racial order by examining the cultural politics of Asian Americans as they are revealed in fiction, film, and theatrical productions. Tracing U.S. economic and political hegemony back to the beginning of the twentieth century through works by Jessica Hagedorn, R. Zamora Linmark, and Sui Sin Far; discourses of race, economics, and empire found in the speeches of William McKinley and William Jennings Bryan; as well as L. Frank Baum’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and other texts, Bascara’s innovative readings uncover the repressed story of U.S. imperialism and unearth the demand that the present empire reckon with its past. Bascara deploys the analytical approaches of both postcolonial studies and Asian American studies, two fields that developed in parallel but have only begun to converge, to reveal how the vocabulary of empire reasserted itself through some of the very people who inspired the U.S imperialist mission. Victor Bascara is assistant professor of English and Asian American studies at the University of Wisconsin, Madison.

Book A Generation of Materialism  1871 1900

Download or read book A Generation of Materialism 1871 1900 written by Carlton Joseph Huntley Hayes and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1983-08-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary Spanish Realist painter Antonio Lopez Garcia is one of those artists, like Bacon and Balthus, who, in a century dominated by the avant-garde and its legacy, has managed to craft an individualistic style on the margins of prevailing trends. Known for his exquisite explorations of the mundane--starkly lit people, buildings, plants and interiors--he deftly calls attention to these familiar forms, allowing the viewer to pore over their details. Sometimes hyperrealistic, Lopez Garcia has been criticized by many art critics for neoacademism and praised by others, like Robert Hughes, who consider him a master Realist. As Lopez Garcia told Michael Brenson in 1989, "Reality has a highly resonant physical appearance that twentieth-century man perceives from different angles to those distinctive of other ages." The volume includes a text by art historian Jose M. Faerna.

Although that response suggests parallels with American intervention in Vietnam, it must be evaluated within the context of the diplomatic ambitions of the United States during 1899-1902.

Download or read book The True Flag written by Stephen Kinzer and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2017-01-24 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bestselling author of Overthrow and The Brothers brings to life the forgotten political debate that set America’s interventionist course in the world for the twentieth century and beyond. How should the United States act in the world? Americans cannot decide. Sometimes we burn with righteous anger, launching foreign wars and deposing governments. Then we retreat—until the cycle begins again. No matter how often we debate this question, none of what we say is original. Every argument is a pale shadow of the first and greatest debate, which erupted more than a century ago. Its themes resurface every time Americans argue whether to intervene in a foreign country. Revealing a piece of forgotten history, Stephen Kinzer transports us to the dawn of the twentieth century, when the United States first found itself with the chance to dominate faraway lands. That prospect thrilled some Americans. It horrified others. Their debate gripped the nation. The country’s best-known political and intellectual leaders took sides. Theodore Roosevelt, Henry Cabot Lodge, and William Randolph Hearst pushed for imperial expansion; Mark Twain, Booker T. Washington, and Andrew Carnegie preached restraint. Only once before—in the period when the United States was founded—have so many brilliant Americans so eloquently debated a question so fraught with meaning for all humanity. All Americans, regardless of political perspective, can take inspiration from the titans who faced off in this epic confrontation. Their words are amazingly current. Every argument over America’s role in the world grows from this one. It all starts here.
