  • Ohio and Cancel Culture: A Long History
    Jul 2 2024
    Episode 6: "Ohio v. Cancel Culture". Seems like everyone is getting cancelled these days from celebrities to political figures, Alex examines five historical examples of cancelled Ohioans to show cancel culture is not just a thing of the present. We sit down to tell 5 stories from the 18th, 19th and 20th Century Ohio that could just as easily been ripped from today's headlines. Alex talks with friend and host of the great podcast Whiskey Business, Dino Tripodis, about the famous oddsmaker and TV personality Jimmy "the Greek" Snyder of Steubenville, Ohio. We follow Jimmy the Greek's improbable rise to stardom and his sudden fall from grace following a racist outburst in 1988. Check out Dino and his show Whiskey Business, also part of the Evergreen Podcast Network, here. www.whiskeybusinesspod.com We head back to the 18th Century with Ohio author and historian, Kevin Kern, to discuss the cancellation of the first Governor of the Northwest Territory, Arthur St. Clair. Kern, author and Univ. of Akron history professor, talks about the St. Clair's notorious military career and defeat in the Northwestern Indian War and his dictatorial reign as governor of the Ohio Territory in the late 18th and early 19th Century. We follow St. Clair's career in the Midwest until he's removed from power and cancelled by the Jefferson Administration. Click link to buy Kevin and Gregory Wilson's great book on Ohio history, Ohio: A History of the Buckeye State. https://www.amazon.com/Ohio-History-Kevin-F-Kern/dp/1119708478 Kevin and Mark Wagoner take us through the career of controversial Senator William Allen of Chillicothe, OH. Kevin describes Allen's prominence as one of Ohio's most famous Democrats of the 19th Century, including becoming Governor in his 70s. Mark Wagoner describes the reasons behind removing Allen's statue as one of Ohio's two representatives in Statuary Hall at the US Capitol building and the process by which Allen was permanently replaced in 2016. Kevin rejoins the show to discuss the sex scandal and cancelling of Rep. Wayne Hays in 1976. Kevin and I discuss his affair and coverup with his "secretary" Elizabeth Ray and the Belmont County natives downfall in the public eye in that bicentennial summer. We discuss why Wayne Hays was one of the meanest members of Congress and why nobody was sorry to see him go. In a replay of an old episode from 2018, Alex sits down with author Patricia Miller to discuss her hit new book, Bringing Down the Colonel. Miller tells the story of a sex scandal involving a young Cincinnati college student, Madeline Pollard, and a powerful Congressman, William Breckinridge that would grip the nation's attention in the spring of 1894. The landmark case of Pollard v. Breckinridge is analyzed for its groundbreaking verdict and how this story still resonates today in the mines of the #MeToo Movement. We strongly encourage you to purchase Bringing Down the Colonel: A Sex Scandal of the Gilded Age and the Powerless Woman Who Took On Washington. https://www.amazon.com/Bringing-Down-Colonel-Powerless-Washington/dp/0374252661 Contact Alex and the show at ohiovtheworld@gmail.com or on the podcasts' Facebook, Instagram and Twitter page.
