Download or read book South Carolina s Turkish People written by Terri Ann Ognibene and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2018-04-15 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of misunderstood immigrants and their struggle to gain recognition and acceptance in the rural South Despite its reputation as a melting pot of ethnicities and races, the United States has a well-documented history of immigrants who have struggled through isolation, segregation, discrimination, oppression, and assimilation. South Carolina is home to one such group—known historically and derisively as "the Turks"—which can trace its oral history back to Joseph Benenhaley, an Ottoman refugee from Old World conflict. According to its traditional narrative, Benenhaley served with Gen. Thomas Sumter in the Revolutionary War. His dark-hued descendants lived insular lives in rural Sumter County for the next two centuries, and only in recent decades have they enjoyed the full blessings of the American experience. Early scholars ignored the Turkish tale and labeled these people "tri-racial isolates" and later writers disparaged them as "so-called Turks." But members of the group persisted in claiming Turkish descent and living reclusively for generations. Now, in South Carolina's Turkish People, Terri Ann Ognibene and Glen Browder confirm the group's traditional narrative through exhaustive original research and oral interviews. In search of definitive documentation, Browder combed through a long list of primary sources, including historical reports, public records, and private papers. He also devised new evidence, such as a reconstruction of Turkish lineage of the 1800s through genealogical analysis and genetic testing. Ognibene, a descendant of the state's Turkish population, conducted personal interviews with her relatives who had been in the community since the 1900s. They talked at length and passionately about their cultural identity, their struggle for equal rights, and the mixed benefits of assimilation. Ognibene's and Browder's findings are clear. South Carolina's Turkish people finally know and can celebrate their heritage.

This book was released on 2014-11-21 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I wrote this book to share my life story. I was prompted into writing this book because of so many people that heard me as a guest speaker, me telling different people real-life stories about myself, my stories about my twenty-two months in the army, and my coworkers and many of my former students telling me that I should be putting my stories and experiences in a book. So I decided to write it. For those of you that know me well and those that don’t know as well, you will find this book to be very interesting, downright hilarious, very entertaining, and thought-provoking. I believe you will have so much fun reading it while you laugh.
