Neither the One nor the Other – Panel Debrief from the 2024 OAH Conference on American History
Description
This special panel debrief edition of the Journal of American History Podcast features a conversation on "Neither the One nor the Other: The Native South in a Black and White World after 1900," held at the 2024 OAH Conference on American History.
In this episode, Angela P. Hudson, Denise E. Bates, Dixie Ray Haggard, Robert Caldwell, and Daniel Usner unpack their panel session, which examined how, after 1900, numerous state- or federally-acknowledged, unrecognized, or transplanted Native American groups remained the South despite the efforts of the federal and state governments to remove them in the past. Most non-Natives chose to disregard these indigenous people. Non-Natives justified their position by claiming “true” southern Natives were extinct or removed. Panelists explore the the persistence of Native communities in the South and their resistance to the marginalization and injustice imposed on them by Jim Crow segregation in this conversation.
This panel was endorsed by the OAH Committee on the Status of ALANA Historians, ALANA Histories, and the Agricultural History Society.
