Shaping the future of the arts therapies in a climate emergency
This article argues that nature-based therapies support the practitioner’s attunement and sensitivity to the environments they work in. This has the effect of enhancing a human to other-than-human understanding from an eco-psychological viewpoint. The authors describe environmental arts therapy as a particular ecological and nature-based approach that also places climate awareness within its creative and therapeutic development. The radical roots…

This method involves the art therapist’s artmaking within the relational dynamic and is done so to extend an arts-based connection with the client and further …

The travail of Delaware slave families in the early republic
Largely ignored in histories of the American slave trade, Delaware provides a unique case study of a state that attempted to carve out its identity as the notions of a free North and a slaveholding South emerged in early America. Delaware’s small slaveholdings and relatively small geographic area created unique challenges for its enslaved population. Aided by Quaker and Methodist abolitionists, slaves fought against kidnappers, slave sales, and d…
The Liberty Bell
Each year, more than two million visitors line up near Philadelphia’s Independence Hall and wait to gaze upon a flawed mass of metal forged more than two and a half centuries ago. Since its original casting in England in 1751, the Liberty Bell has survived a precarious journey on the road to becoming a symbol of the American identity, and in this masterful work, Gary B. Nash reveals how and why this voiceless bell continues to speak such volumes …

Friends of Liberty: Thomas Jefferson, Tadeusz Kosciuszko, and Agrippa Hull; A Tale of Three Patriots, Two Revolutions, and a Tragic Betrayal of Freedom in the New Nation
Gary B. Nash and Graham Russell Gao Hodges have used three intertwined biographies to craft a story of the American Revolution and its confrontation with slavery. Agrippa Hull was a free African American born in Massachusetts; Tadeusz Kosciuszko, the second son of a Polish petty noble family; and Thomas Jefferson—well, he needs no introduction. All three participated in the Revolution: Kosciuszko as a brilliant military engineer; Hull as his orde…

The Hidden History of Mestizo America
On a dank January evening in London in 1617, the audience was distracted from a performance of Ben Johnson's The Vision of Delight by the persons sitting next to King James I and Queen Anne: a dashing adventurer who had just returned from the outer edge of the fledgling English empire and his new wife, ten years his junior. The king's guests were John Rolfe and his wife Rebecca -a name newly invented to anglicize the daughter of another king who …
Freedom by Degrees: Emancipation in Pennsylvania and Its Aftermath
This book shows how slavery ended within a single generation at the end of the eighteenth century in the important colony/state of Pennsylvania. The authors have made a study of the slaveholders themselves in order to understand the process by which most slaves were given freedom without legislative or judicial efforts and without compensation to their masters. The book also traces a number of individual cases which show the varying processes by …
Slaves and Slaveowners in Colonial Philadelphia
LTHOUGH historians have recognized the importance of slavery in the social and economic life of colonial America, they have associated the institution primarily with the plantation economy of the southern colonies. Textbooks in colonial history and black history rarely mention urban slavery in the northern colonies or take only passing notice of the institution and conclude that the small number of slaves in northern cities served as domestic ser…

New Light on Richard Allen: The Early Years of Freedom
ICHARD Allen was one of the most gifted Americans of his generation. At a time when historians have been commemorating the two hundredth anniversary of the Constitution and the accomplishments of the white founding fathers, little attention is paid to this black founding father. Yet his role as a shaper of thought and a builder of institutions was matched by few of his white contemporaries, and what he accomplished was done in the face of obstacl…

The Philadelphia Bench and Bar, 1800-1861
Americans have traditionally recognized social mobility as a valuable and characteristic feature of their society. Constant movement up and down the ladder of wealth and status, it is generally assumed, stems naturally from our healthy insistence on equality of opportunity, on careers 'open to talent'. A corollary belief, embodied in a faith in such a system, is that an egalitarian society will necessarily produce the strongest and most stable in…
