In addition to writing for a religious periodical and running for president in 1912, Roosevelt also undertook two major journeys abroad during this time. His African safari of 1909‒10 allowed him to observe and comment on traditional African religions and Christian missionaries. When he returned to the United States via Europe, he once again found himself mixed up in Vatican politics. In 1913‒14, Roosevelt and his friend the Catholic priest John Zahm planned a scientific expedition in South America. Roosevelt and his expedition eventually charted an unknown river in Brazil. These incidents continued to show Roosevelt’s religious ecumenism and support of religion in general.

The long-tailed weasel Mustela frenata Lichtenstein, 1831 has the greatest geographical range among mustelids in the western hemisphere (Harding & Dragoo 2012). The range of M. frenata extends from the north of the United States, near the Canadian border, to northern South America (Sheffield & Thomas 1997), from sea level to 3800 masl (Sheffield & Thomas 1997, Reid & Helgen 2008).

Having just arrived to spend some time here in nutrition and health care studies, I realize that there are many cultural adjustments to be made. One which I find difficult to accept is the seemingly unbridled license which pharmaceutical houses (some of which number among our better-known ethical firms in the United States) take in manufacturing and promoting drugs in South America. Whether the parent companies lack control or lack concern, I am hard-pressed to pass judgment from this vantage point.

Networks Of Support

United by a culture of solidarity and political protest, the working-class community revealed in the periodical España Libre was favored by various networks of support. These included networks associated with the Second Spanish Republican government and politicians in exile; labor unions both within and outside the United States; educators, including Spanish academics and the Modern Schools; as well as Spanish-language and radical publishers operating in Europe and South America. Through the alternative press and fundraising events, exiles met other migrant, ethnic, and radical individuals and maintained a sense of trust and community so necessary to avoid the isolation of exile. On the contrary, ethnic and radical networks strengthened the Confederadas in its commitment to generating its own non-institutionalized and transnational modes of collective organization.

Vineyard Movement

Chapter 5 explores the Vineyard movement, one of the fastest-growing church movements in the United States, which is committed to holding together the “already” and “not yet” of the Kingdom of God in worship. In addition to looking for a dramatic, miraculous inbreaking of the Holy Spirit, there is a less dramatic but equally formative influence at work in worship: the Quaker notion of “gospel order” and its accompanying understanding of ethics. These commitments are tested at “Koinonia Vineyard,” a congregation located in the Pacific Northwest, where one African American member wrestles with her vision of activism and her Caucasian pastor’s desire for the congregation to remain politically neutral during a time of national racial unrest.
