The skirmishes at Lexington and Concord and even the more determined fighting around Boston were only meant to show the mother country that the colonials were serious in their demand to be treated fairly as Englishmen. But then events moved rapidly. In July, 1776, the die was cast and the challenge thrown in the face of the British. The next years were full of heartbreaks and setbacks. Almost to the end, the outcome of the struggle was in serious doubt. While the war was on, the new nation often found distressing troubles of an internal nature. The independence for which the fight was being waged at times seemed to be anything but that sweet thing glimpsed in the dreams of freedom. But in the end, victory came to the Americans. In 1783 Great Britain officially recognized the United States of North America. The introductory chapters of the American story were concluded. The main chapters were to follow.
"How our fighting equipment gets through to our fighting men in quantity and on time. The mountains of supplies for combat loaded at ports of embarkation are unloaded under combat conditions and under fire in the South Pacific. From behind-the-lines General Supply Depots they are moved through jungle swamps to advance bases, to the firing lines. The never-ending battle of supply is graphically told in these pictures."--Supplement to Visual Aids Catalog, Indiana University Extension Division, May 1945.

"Our society told parents at that time, they’re retarded, you don’t want them at home, stick them in an institution, forget that they were born." Three interviewees who worked as staff at Muscatatuck and New Castle State Hospitals in the 1960s and 70s describe the admission of adults and children whose families had few options at the time. Medical advice was to institutionalize those labeled with an intellectual disability. Families lacked community supports and the financial means required to pay for care of their son or daughter at home. Public schools were not an option for children with intellectual disabilities. This video is a compilation of excerpts from interviews with Patty Cook, Sue Beecher, and Sarah Poole.

In this talk I will describe research and teaching organized around visual thinking and techniques. These include visual ethnography/narrative, semiotics, visual empiricism and phenomenology. I will illustrate each of these with examples from my research on railroad tramps, a thousand year old piazza in Bologna, Italy, the George Floyd memorial in Minneapolis and studies of the working knowledge of an auto mechanic. I will suggest how these research approaches translate to assignments in visual sociology courses, which can be adapted completely or in part to all disciplines of the social sciences, humanities and even the natural sciences.

Summary:
In This Too Is Sabotage narration states "the saboteur is malnutrition," showing underlying causes of workplace accidents, lost man-hours, and losses in wartime productivity are often caused by the poor nutrition of workers' diets. Announcing "we're fighting against improper eating," a wartime nutritional program built from 7 food groups is detailed. At a dramatized presentation demonstrating meal planning following these nutritional guidelines before an audience of women, the presenter states that the guidelines "will help us with the job that has been given to us women, as the guardians of the vigor and vitality of our families."
"In the field of nutrition, the Westinghouse Company's film, This Too Is Sabotage, does a good job of selling the fact that a well-balanced diet is essential to health and happiness. This film is shown to employees in over a thousand war plants. The lunch hour is a favored time. Pre-shift showings to early arrivals are well attended, though many prefer to stay after a shift" (C.A. Lindstrom, "Agricultural Pictures and the War" Journal of the Society of Motion Picture Engineers vol. 42, no. 3, March, 1944, p. 183)

Librarians are working to counterbalance collections decisions and priorities that have historically marginalized the histories and experiences of people of color. Critical digital scholars have also highlighted the need to disrupt the replication of this marginalization in the digital sphere. Meanwhile concerns about diversity, cultural competence, and the marginalization of students of color in STEM and librarianship continue. Libraries can use critical digital collections in response. This presentation will focus on an open access digital resource built at Indiana University Bloomington Libraries - Land, Wealth, Liberation: The Making & Unmaking of Black Wealth in the United States - which has seen significant uptake from the campus and community and attracted diverse student workers. Librarians and students built this resource on a Libraries-hosted digital exhibition service based on Omeka S, which allowed for rapid, collaborative and distributed development, and integration of embedded audiovisual content and interactive timelines. The primary timeline spanning 1820-2020 offers an alternate construction of significant historical periods, tying them to events that directly affected black communities, such as the 1921 destruction of Greenwood, Tulsa, and the federal urban renewal policies initiated by the 1949 Housing Act. Librarians actively engaged students in developing their skills in scholarly communication, open access, and digital methods. The success of this project opens new doors for collaborative digital scholarship projects between the Libraries, the campus, and the community, and illustrates that digital collections focusing on the stories of historically marginalized groups can be an important means of addressing multiple concerns.
A lifetime of newspaper work culminated in journalism’s biggest accolade for Tim Nickens, who won the 2013 Pulitzer Prize for editorial for his work with the Tampa Bay Times.
Nickens’ first newspaper job was at Jeffersonville High School in Indiana, where he was editor of The Hyphen. He attended IU’s High School Journalism Institute two summers in a row, and the experience cemented his career choice. He enrolled at IU, but took a year off after his first semester to work as a sports reporter for the Jeffersonville Evening News. He returned to IU, where he worked as a reporter, campus editor and editor-in-chief at the Indiana Daily Student.
After graduation, Nickens worked for the Journal Gazette in Fort Wayne. In 1983, he joined the St. Petersburg Times, now the Tampa Bay Times. He covered the Clearwater and St. Petersburg city halls as well as the criminal courts. From 1987 to 1990, he worked in the Tallahassee bureau. He left in 1990 to work for the Miami Herald, returning to the Times in 1995 as an editorial writer.
As political editor, he orchestrated coverage of the 2000 presidential campaigns of Al Gore and George W. Bush. The Times’ stories detailed the battle for Florida, which ended in a U.S. Supreme Court vote that sealed Bush’s victory.
Nickens became metro editor in 2001 and assistant managing editor in 2003. In 2004, he moved back to the editorial page. He became deputy editor of editorials and editor of editorials in 2008. With columnist Daniel Ruth, he shared the Pulitzer Prize for a series of editorials explaining why fluoride is critical to dental health and successfully urging county officials to restore fluoride to the water supply. He also won the 2013 Scripps Howard Foundation’s Walker Stone Award for his editorial writing during 2012.

After a decade leading major daily newspapers, Timothy A. Franklin helped launch the IU School of Journalism’s National Sports Journalism Center on the Indianapolis campus, taking the project from idea stages to the debut of the nation’s first program offering a master’s degree in sports journalism.
Now a managing editor at Bloomberg News, Franklin traces his success at the center and in newspaper leadership to his early work.
As with many alumni, his first experience was at the Indiana Daily Student, where he excelled. In 1981, Franklin won the Society of Professional Journalists’ Barney Kilgore Award as the top college journalism student in the nation.
After receiving his degree in journalism education in 1983, he joined the Chicago Tribune as a reporter. During 17 years, he rose through the ranks from assistant city editor to associate managing editor.
His first leadership role was as editor of The Indianapolis Star, which under his guidance won a national Polk Award for statewide reporting for an investigation into Indiana’s services for mentally ill patients.
Next, as editor and vice president of the Orlando Sentinel, Franklin led the staff to win more than two dozen national journalism awards. While he was editor at the Baltimore Sun, the newspaper was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in local reporting in 2007.
Franklin also became a leader in the profession, especially in the area of open government. While at the Sentinel, he spearheaded what became “Sunshine Week,” the annual journalism observance that spotlights access to public information.
In 2008, Franklin returned to campus as the Louis A. Weil Jr. Endowed Chair at the School of Journalism, teaching classes and serving as director of the new National Sports Journalism Center, which prepares students for sports journalism careers.
Franklin joined Bloomberg News in 2011, where he is a managing editor in its Washington bureau.
