This item is a set of examples from the collection [United States, North and South Carolina, Georgia, African Americans, 1920s-1930s] collected by Lawrence Gellert. Some content and language may be offensive. The examples have been selected to accompany the monograph, A Sound History: Lawrence Gellert, Black Musical Protest, and White Denial, by Steven Garabedian, published by the University of Massachusetts Press in 2020. The larger collection of Lawrence Gellert recordings are described in the IUCAT record (https://iucat.iu.edu/catalog/2231335 ). Some of these recordings were made using a primitive recording device and the audio quality is very poor. Titles are taken from those provided in Gellert's notes or have been created based on the song content. Gellert did not document the names of performers for their safety, and that is why the performers for most of these recordings are unknown.

In recent years, there has been an increasing amount of literature on using computational methods to study language change. These studies demonstrate good performance in automatically identifying the time of text writing (Popescu and Strapparava, 2015), tracing semantic change (Schlechtweg et al, 2020), and even discovering rules underlying language change (Hamilton et al., 2016). However, such studies are questioned for taking at face value (Hengchen et al., 2021), and models' performance in varieties of languages or genres remains unclear. Regarding Classical Chinese, we realize that there is a clear lack of open-access diachronic data, and the lexical change among different genres is seldom addressed in a computational way with large data. In this study, we approach the issue of how language changes across time and across genres by using classification tasks. Two types of texts: Chinese Biji and Buddhist texts are included. We firstly aim to examine how well language models (such as ngram, word2vec, transformers) can predict the written time of historical texts. Then, we are interested in what we can learn from the language models' prediction. We analyze the results we obtained and discuss the future direction.
Mr. Hoffer examines the role that works plays in self-esteem as well as the effects of growing automation upon this self-esteem. He comments on the basic human need in all societies, in every period of history, for self-realization. It is, he feels, the feeling of worth derived from productive activity whether it be manual labor or the creation of art, literature and philosophy. Mr. Hoffer points out that early science grew out of Western man’s conception of God as “a master scientist,” and that Leonardo da Vinci, for his art, investigated anatomy and became interested in science because he believed it was “God’s work.” He then traces the development of machines from early civilization to what he terms, “present day over-mechanization and automation.” Today’s fast-growing automation and shrinking labor market is turning early man’s dream of luxury and leisure into a nightmare. Unemployment among workers is outstripping the ability of today’s economy to supply jobs for the unskilled. Mr. Hoffer cites current unemployment figures and projects them into the future, commenting that “when man is cut off from the chance to exercise his skills, he loses his confidence, his joy for life, and his sense of worth. Where you have people without a sense of usefulness, you have a potentially explosive situation ideal for the growth of hatred, bigotry and racism.”
