During the second half of the Great Migration, circa 1940s–1970s, many Creole Louisianans migrated to Los Angeles, where they established recreational social clubs like those in New Orleans. This article analyzes the experiences and social functions of the clubs among first and second generations based on personal interviews, revealing the shifting roles and meanings across regions and generations. It enriches our understanding of the Great Migration and the clubs’ roles in fostering migrant adaptation and social cohesion among one element of the Los Angeles Black population.

Photographer Bob Douglas’s 1940s–1990s career illustrates the race-based constraints experienced by African American photographers. Analyses of his images of jazz performers bring to light his rapport with the musicians and his sensitivity to their music and the differences between his practice and from that of white jazz photographers. His oeuvre is an important contribution to the history of both jazz and photography.

Abstract:The sea otter population along the Southern California coast was reduced by maritime hunting in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries but not entirely driven to extinction. Based on historical sources and archival newspaper accounts, the authors have devised a conservative estimate of otter hunting activity between 1855 and 1908 and determined where hunting was concentrated. Conservation efforts in the Progressive Era and the 1970s and a translocation program in the late twentieth century have resulted in a limited population resurgence.

Abstract:This article studies a brief strike by Nikkei incarcerees at the Santa Anita Assembly Center in 1942. Employed in the industrial production of camouflage nets, the imprisoned Japanese Americans staged a strike over pay, worker safety, and rights. Ꮤithout previous guidelines, the center's administrators had to devise a resolution to this halt in the production of war materiel. The Santa Anita netmakers' strike and its resolution provided a foundation for handling labor disputes at the permanent ᏔRA camps later. The author identifies the administration, division of labor, pay, and unsafe work conditions, along with the strike leadership, management's response, and the outcome of the strike.

Matthew Frye Jacobson
Between 2009 and 2013, as the nation contemplated the historic election of Barack Obama and endured the effects of the Great Recession, Matthew Frye Jacobson set out with a camera to explore and document what was discernible to the "historian's eye" during this tumultuous period. Having collected several thousand images, Jacobson began to reflect on their raw, informal immediacy alongside the recognition that they comprised an archive of a moment with unquestionable historical significance. This book presents more than 100 images alongside Jacobson's recollections of their moments of creation and his understanding of how they link past, present, and future. The images reveal diverse expressions of civic engagement that are emblematic of the aspirations, expectations, promises, and failures of this period in American history. Myriad closed businesses and abandoned storefronts stand as public monuments to widespread distress; omnipresent, expectant Obama iconography articulates a wish for new national narratives; flamboyant street theater and wry signage bespeak a common impulse to talk back to power. Framed by an introductory essay, these images reflect the sober grace of a time that seems perilous, but in which “hope” has not ceased to hold meaning.
