Description:
A revealing look at U.S. imperialism through the lens of visual culture and portraiture
In 1898, the United States seized territories overseas, ushering in an era of expansion that was at odds with the nation's founding promise of freedom and democracy for all. This book draws on portraiture and visual culture to provide fresh perspectives on this crucial yet underappreciated period in history.
Tana Caragol and Kate Clarke Lemay tell the story of 1898 by bringing together portraits of U.S. figures who favored overseas expansion, such as William McKinley and Theodore Roosevelt, with those of leading figures who resisted colonization, including Eugenio Mara de Hostos of Puerto Rico; Jose Mart of Cuba; Felipe Agoncillo of the Philippines; Padre Jose Bernardo Palomo of Guam; and Queen Lili'uokalani of Hawai'i. Throughout the book, Caragol and Lemay also look at landscapes, naval scenes, and ephemera. They consider works of art by important period artists Winslow Homer and Armando Menocal as well as contemporary artists such as Maia Cruz Palileo, Stephanie Syjuco, and Miguel Luciano. Paul A. Kramer's essay addresses the role of the Smithsonian Institution in supporting imperialism, and texts by Jorge Duany, Theodore S. Gonzalves, Kristin L. Hoganson, Healoha Johnston, and Neil Weare offer critical perspectives by experts with close personal or scholarly relations to the island regions.
Beautifully illustrated, 1898: Visual Culture and U.S. Imperialism in the Caribbean and the Pacific challenges us to reconsider the Spanish-American War, the Philippine-American War, and the annexation of Hawai'i whi

Privacy is Us

This is a great blocker of the sun and neighbors. It's stylish and can be secured. We used wire above and cinder blocks below. Its sturdy in the wind and rain. We love it.

Ideal para espacios pequeños y con estilo
Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel, Color: Black, Size: 6 Panel
Como muchos saben, los apartamentos en Estados Unidos suelen ser pequeños y con poco espacio para guardar cosas. Yo tenía algunas cajas en una esquina que no sabía cómo esconder sin que se viera desordenado hasta que encontré este biombo, y fue justo lo que necesitaba.
Me encantó porque además de tapar lo que no quiero que se vea, le da un toque bonito y moderno al área. El color negro combina con todo y se ve elegante sin ser llamativo. Es liviano, fácil de mover y guardar, y lo mejor: no ocupa mucho espacio cuando no lo estás usando.
También me sorprendió que se siente firme y bien hecho, no es de esos biombos que se tambalean o se ven frágiles. Ahora tengo más privacidad y orden en casa, sin tener que hacer grandes cambios. Una compra sencilla pero que hace una gran diferencia. ¡Lo recomiendo!

Very simple to put up. No assembly required. Just take it out the box and you're done! Also I thought it would be heavy. Very light and easy to move😊
