    America 250 Archives: Woody Guthrie and This Land

    Why do so many of us know “This Land was Made for You and Me,” a song that Woody Guthrie wrote in February 1940 — more than 85 years ago? This classic folk song has permeated American culture so deeply and consistently across space and time — but why? Maybe it’s because of Guthrie’s distinct style and reputation for rambling. Or maybe it’s because the song originated as something of a diss track to God Bless America. And notwithstanding its cultural prominence, this song about land currently occupied by the United States of America entirely omits Indigenous people. Please note that this episode features Woody Guthrie interview clips where he uses the harmful descriptor colored in reference to Black and Indigenous people.

    America 250 Archives: Mitsuye Endo and James Purcell’s Fight to End Japanese-American Internment

    Mitsuye Endo was horrified as she read about the attack on Pearl Harbor in the newspaper. Her mind immediately went to her brother who was serving in the US Army in the Pacific. Her next worry was her job and her own well being as she was fired from her job with the state of California and forcibly removed from her home and into one mass incarceration detention center after another. With the help of attorney James Purcell, Mitsuye was the chief plaintiff in the Supreme Court case that effectively ended Japanese-American mass incarceration centers during World War II.

Having just moved from her hometown of Holly Springs, Mississippi, to Memphis, Tennessee, Ida's diary paints a picture of her attempt to balance her need to earn a stable salary as a teacher with her desire to be a published writer.

    FBI Archives: Mississippi Burning & The Search for Schwerner, Chaney, and Goodman

    On this episode, we’re exploring a set of archives that I never even expected to dig into, and honestly, these archives were the most heartbreaking, and draining to sift through. I’m referring to the FBI Archives. And today we’re focused on the FBI archives related to Mississippi Burning — not the film, but the real investigation in 1964. Surprisingly, the FBI Archives reveal an unexpected story about who the first investigators were to search for James Chaney, Michael Schwerner, and Andrew Goodman, and they dispel the savior myths about the FBI swooping in and saving the day, like the creative fiction portrayed in the film would have you believe. Plus, listeners get to hear President Lyndon B. Johnson and FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover discussing the investigation via recorded phone calls archived in the Lyndon B. Johnson Presidential Library. For more information, visit ArchivalPod.com. Audio Credits: Music by Scott Buckley; J. Edgar Hoover Press Conference Recordings from the Associated Press Archives; Telephone Recordings from the LBJ Presidential Library
