Talk:Paul Fromm (white supremacist)

Accuracy
Opening Sentence:

There were three references for the "ties to Ku Klux Klan" assertion in the opening sentence, and all were flawed. The first reference was to a KKK site that doesn't work, and because Thomas Robb sponsors an event that someone speaks at doesn't mean that the speaker is tied to the KKK. If you are asked to speak somewhere, are you tied with everyone connected to the event and the organizations that they are involved in? No, and such an assertion is a stretch at best. The second reference was to a Toronto Sun article which reported on the ARA protesting at Fromm's house not about Fromm having ties to the KKK. The third reference was to an antisemitism site that alleges that Fromm has prominence in the "neo-Nazi speaking circuit," but does not mention the KKK.

It can be established, however, that Fromm has ties to David Duke and Don Black (both former KKK members) through Stormfront, and thus I changed the sentence to that which can be verified.

Public Opposition:

A paragraph in the public opposition section, about the protest at Fromm's house, did not accurately reflect the way the event was reported in the article that it uses as a reference. If you don't believe me, contact the Toronto Sun and ask them for a copy from the archives.

In the opposition to Tamils section, a cherry picked quote saying, "...so terrified the receptionist that she locked the door...." was used to put the protest in the worst possible light. It does not mention that they acted peacefully and lawfully and that it ended without incident. On the other hand, the paragraph in the public opposition to Fromm section leaves out the fact that the police had to follow the ARA (it didn't even indentify them) from the start in riot gear, removed them from private property, nor that Richard Warman encouraged it, and the paragraph ends by saying that there was no incident to put that protest in the best possible light. One can only conclude that an attempt is being made to slant information that is presented and that's not an appropriate use of Wikipedia.

Therefore, I replaced the paragraph with accurate and complete information from the Toronto Sun article that was referenced and another source. 206.217.211.108 (talk) 09:34, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

disrupted a speech by left-wing, "radical lawyer", William Kunstler, resulting in the Chicago Seven's lawyer drenching Fromm with a pitcher of water"
I have just been readings scans of some of the old issues of Straight Talk!, the official bulletin of the Edmund Burke Society. In one of their articles discussing this particular "event", it was said that, to the apparent approval of the audience, Kunstler invited Fromm up onto the stage to speak; and THEN emptied a pitcher of water over Fromm's head, before he could speak; and THEN assaulted Fromm, rendering him unconscious.

Accuracy
A book published by an academic in 1987 (Is God A Racist? by Stanley R. Barrett) revealed that Paul Fromm is a federal police agent, he set up his Edmund Burke Society as a national police front for multiple federal police agencies reporting to the Prime Minister and the Justice Minister.

It is therefore quite frankly irrational to call Fromm anything but a police stooge, an agent provocateur. What should be done is to investigate how this happened, what the consequences have been, and how Fromm has assisted the federal police since he was recruited in 1967, up to the present day. This would bring about a profile of who Fromm really is, what he has been up to, and why he has been up to it.

A summary of the situation is here, and there's a link to download a scan of the relevant book pages. https://nosnowinmoscow.net/2019/10/26/paul-fromms-edmund-burke-society-was-a-national-police-operation-under-soviet-agent-pearson-and-pierre-elliott-trudeau-part-i/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.46.180.85 (talk) 23:59, 31 October 2019 (UTC)

Para del?
Deletions of whole paragraphs must be explained. Ground Zero 18:08, 23 August 2005 (UTC)

Inconsistencies
This paragraph should be deleted.

"In 1991, Fromm was instrumental in helping former Toronto Sun education writer Judi McLeod - also a member of Fromm's organization C-FAR "Citizens for Foreign Aid Reform" - start the right-wing newspaper "Our Toronto" now known as "The Toronto Free Press" and "Canada Free Press". Fromm and McLeod were close through mutual friend Richard James who in turn was a close personal friend of Ernst Zundel."

This is a maliciously made falsity and should be removed. Judi McLeod is anti-racist, has written articles criticising Ernst Zundel, of whom she and Canada Free Press would seem to have a very low opinion thereof. She never even had any contact with Paul Fromm, as far as I know. Nor was she ever a member of C-FAR, which is a neo-nazi front. Hobbes000 21:11, 23 August 2005 (UTC)

 * [[Image:Stop_hand.png|left|30px]] McLeod's newspaper has published racist articles including this gem "The admission of Turkey into the European Community will be the final blow to the Christian identity of Europe. Once the Turkish people are free to live in and work, legally, in the European nation of their choice, the problem will not be Paris burning but a deluge of Islamic immigrants into the Christian world which will be unstoppable. If one remembers with horror the acts of Black September, the Red Brigade, or the sectarian violence in Yugoslavia; then, just wait until every citizen of Turkey has a European Passport." You claim McLeod has written articles denouncing Ernst Zundel, Paul Fromm, etc but these articles are nowhere to be found. Links, please. Or were you hoping you could bluff us? That's a typical Judi McLeod tactic. In fact Judi McLeod refuses to write anything against Paul Fromm and published a short letter to the editor from him. --Cyberboomer 00:51, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

 * The author of the paragraph has been asked for a citation, and the request is in the article itself. I'm sure he'll be by to explain himself soon enough. Jayjg (talk)  21:52, 23 August 2005 (UTC)

I'm not the author of the paragraph in question (I put it back in after someone took it out but I did not put it in originally). It is consistent, however, with what I personally know about McLeod from observing her in the 1980s though (for what that's worth). Homey 22:56, 23 August 2005 (UTC)

IE I know she has had contact with Paul Fromm because I saw it with my own eyes circa 1987. Now, that is original research and is not, in and of itself, sufficient for including the fact in the article - however, I wasn't the actual author of the paragraph making the allegation - I just happen to know it's credible from my own experience. Homey

It being original research (is the proper format for a response in a talk page btw?), and still without a citation as asked, I think we can agree to take it off for now. Ok? Hobbes000 15:29, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

 * In 1991, Fromm was instrumental in helping former Toronto Sun education writer Judi McLeod - also a member of Fromm's organization C-FAR "Citizens for Foreign Aid Reform" - start the right-wing newspaper "Our Toronto" now known as "The Toronto Free Press" and "Canada Free Press". Fromm and McLeod were close through mutual friend Richard James who in turn was a close personal friend of Ernst Zundel.(needs verification)

I've put it in as a "hidden comment" (which means readers can't see it but also means it doesn't get lost) and will go through the history and see if I can find who added it. Homey 15:45, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Your hidden comment wasn't hidden. Since I don't know how to do it myself, I took it out for now.  If you can redo it properly, that'd be great. Hobbes000 18:27, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
 * It's hidden now. Ground Zero 18:35, 24 August 2005 (UTC)
 * I have removed this from the page itself, as although it isn't visible, it's still searched by Google. Hopefully its presence here on the talk page will be enough to remind editors that it's there and needs verification. Mindspillage (spill yours?) 18:39, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

The allegation was added on July 27th by an IP user, 66.98.152.31. This makes it harder to trace, I'll leave a query on the User's talk page anyway. Homey 15:50, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

For now, that seems acceptable to me. It really looks like an attempt at slander, but if it can't be seen, then I don't really have a problem with it. Although, if we can't find a citation in the next several weeks, or month or so, I think it's best to take it out altogether until something reenters to change the equation. Hobbes000 15:57, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

Well, I have a personal experience that leads me to believe the claim is not "slander" but is perfectly plausible (particularly as the passage was contributed by another user, not myself). However, personal experience is not sufficient evidence for wikipedia articles so I can't rely on that as a basis to retain the comment. McLeod may have changed her views over the years but being familiar with her columns in the Toronto Sun in the 1980s (particularly on apartheid) and having observed her behaviour closehand I have no problem believing that in the 1980s she was close to Fromm and shared a number of his views at the time. Homey 16:46, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

I doubt she ever had those views, and I shall endeavour to look for old articles of hers which prove the contrary when I am next at the Reference library. However, given that you and I can both google articles of Canada Free Press and use it to find articles that demonstrate verifiable clear disgust and dislike for neo-nazis and their positions, and that I can't find anything at all on Fromm helping her found the newspaper, I believe it to be inappropriate and irresponsible to put in the article until we have actual proof beyond original research. Also, see my comment above on having had to take out the paragraph because the hidden paragraph wasn't hidden. Hobbes000 18:27, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

It's now hidden properly. Anyway, I did say that my own personal evidence is not sufficient to justify inclusion in the article but, nevertheless, it is sufficient for me to believe the claims are credible. I do know for a fact she and Fromm were friends in the late 1980s and I suspect a number of school trustees from the period have made the same observation. I doubt she's ever written "my friend Paul Fromm" in an article but that's beside the point. I don't know where the anon IP got his or her information and until and unless he or she (or someone) provides a source I agree it shouldn't be included but my point is that your "doubt" she had ever had those views does not convince me that the info is incorrect. Homey 19:16, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

Fair enough, for now. I guess we both have our postions on this, and I appreciate your integrity and honesty. I'm guessing that you are referring to how you saw Fromm talking with McLeod once. I'm not so sure that constitutes two people being friends. Anyways, I am going to go do Roman history articles now, and leave this one alone, my main issues having been dealt with in this and the related articles. Hobbes000 19:36, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

Well, it's a bit more than "Fromm talking with McLeod once." Anyway, you sound like you know her personally, why don't you ask her a) if she knows Fromm and b) why she was fired from the Toronto Sun?Homey 20:05, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

I know someone who works for her, and I've met her a few times since she speaks at universities and schools around Toronto every so often. So, I have a superficial idea of what she's like. And the reason I doubt her being a racist or neo-nazi or association with a neo-nazi, anti-Semite and bigot like Paul Fromm is because the guy is Jewish. And the guy who came before him was Japanese. So the allegations comes to me as a surprise. Anything's possible, but given that the articles I find on google refer to Ernst Zundel as a nutbar, and denounce his ideas, well I would think that count as evidence against her being a neo-nazi.

Hobbes000 21:13, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

I agree, there's no particular evidence that she is anti-Semitic, however, she certainly was not anti-apartheid in the 1980s when South Africa was Fromm's big issue (along with immigration and foreign aid). Homey 21:33, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

I'll look into that. I'm too young to remember apartheid, but my dad told me that a lot of the opposition to the anti-apartheid movement in the 1980s was due to the movement's association with communists and socialists, rather than actual support for apartheid (which is morally and rationally indefensible), since it took place in a time of severe cold war tension. That could go a long way towards explaining it, since everyone would have been worried that if the ANC took over in South Africa, the communists would come in from Zimbabwe and other African countries and the West would lose their toehold in Africa against the communists.

You lived through it, so you would know better than I since I was an infant at the time. But that might explain it. Judi is still very much anticommunist, and articles support that, so that might go a long way towards explaining that.

On actual related stuff to Paul Fromm, I've been told that the groups he leads now are essentially defunct. You have any info on that?

 * I'm too young to remember apartheid, but my dad told me that a lot of the opposition to the anti-apartheid movement in the 1980s was due to the movement's association with communists and socialists, rather than actual support for apartheid

Yes, the same excuses were used in the 1930s by those who favoured appeasing Hiter- he was such a good anti-Communist after all.

Anyway, does McLeod deny having ever been a member of C-FAR?Homey 01:50, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

I submit that the facts and neutrality of this article on Paul Fromm should be disputed. The article was largely edited by [speculation on name removed] who is known to be personally antagonistic towards anyone on the opposite end of the political spectrum. 65.244.158.62 16:45, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

Isn't "Neo-Nazi" an incorrect title.
I accidently added this into the wrong section, so I'm reposting it here.

Isn't "neo-nazi" an incorrect nomenclature to define Fromm?

Doesn't that breach the neutrality of the article, and border on libelous? I've noticed other wiki biographies of racists or "racialists", have a more fair and balanced approach. For example, David Duke's wiki page lists what his self styled title is (white nationalist), and what opposition or critics label him(white supremacist). Paul Fromm's article has neither side, it merely states an incorrect title / nomenclature as matter of fact, even though Fromm himself, and mainstream media have never labeled Fromm a Neo-Nazi, they've just stated he has ties with them.

The neutrality also seems to be compromised with the term "leader". If he is a neo-nazi leader, then there should be sources of people describing him as a leader who promotes the resurgence of a German Third Reich type government.

It is a fact he has represented white nationalists and neo-nazi type people, but acting as an interested party for alleged neo-nazis in tribunal hearings do not necessarily mean he is neo-nazi himself. Non-White Lawyers for the ACLU have represented the KKK in court, it doesn't mean they agree with the entire position of the KKK, all it means is they believe the party they represent deserve legal counsel as a right, and that preserving freedom of speech is important.

The "Neo-Nazi" label also has "fascist" or even violent overtones. Reading the sources on the biography show that Fromm's actions have not shown a provlicity for violence or a resurgence of fasicm. "Fascists" are usually against free speech, advocate restriction of rights of citizens, and are against the proliferation of mediums such as the internet. Paul Fromm's actions have not shown fascist tendencies, but quite the opposite, his organistions clearly have acted with preserving civil rights such as free expression, he is his self described "civil libertarian" (albeit with racial undertones), and therefore "civil libertarian" should be a title / nomenclature at least mentioned in the biography. Kleinback 10:14, 14 November 2007 (UTC) Kleinback 10:47, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

 * I see there was a Stormfront posting about this just today. [ http://www.stormfront.org /forum/showthread.php/wikipedia-labels-paul-fromm-neo-436627.html] I also see an article from last week in the Globe and Mail titled, "Ex-teacher loses licence over neo-Nazi ties" while the Toronto Sun says he's been "described as a "senior player" in the neo-Nazi movement in Canada". I don't think that calling him a "civil libertarian" would be objective or neutral. ·:· Will Beback  ·:· 17:27, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Will, what neo-nazi group does Fromm lead? Is he member of the National Socialist Party of Canada? Are there any speeches by him where he introduces himself as a neo-nazi? Does he have swastika tattooed on his forehead? Are there any speeches where he promotes a 4th Reich? If not, than the title "neo-nazi" should not be thrown around as matter of fact, but as a point of view of his critics, such as Farber.

I found the quote, it reads: "senior player on the neo-Nazi playing field in Canada"

Bernie Farber is not presenting a neutral POV, therefore I believe the biography still violates the neutrality parameters surrounding wikipedia biographies. Shouldn't the "neo-nazi" title be representative of Fromm's words or actions? If Fromm is a neo-nazi, there should be a quote of him espousing genocide of communists, poles and jews right right?

What would be more neutral, would be to list Fromm's self styled title, and then to list what critics such as Bernie Farber describe him.

P.S: An even better question is, what defines a person as a "neo-nazi". The reason I ask is because, if Fromm's actions and words are what define a neo-nazi, I'm suspecting "neo-nazi" will be added to a lot more biographies. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kleinback (talk • contribs) 21:04, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

 * There is nothing to debate here. Fromm is openly praises the Nationalist-Socialist Party of Canada, and has provided legal support for its leader. He is also heavily connected with various Klan factions in the U.S. For the plethora of examples, these being just two, his politics fit the category of "neo"-Nazi perfectly. Frank Pais (talk) 15:38, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

I would not say that neo-Nazi is a correct title for him at all, it is just that he has shared platforms with them as he is a Free Speech activist. He is on my list of friends on Facebook and his political views are 'Conservative' hence why I have written down that he is a 'hardline conservative' and he is not a member of any neo-Nazi party either. He is just a free speech activist, he will meet extremists or moderates. Apparently the Aryan Guard says that it has members whose political views are White Nationalist, National Socialist, Paleoconservative or Libertarian. His Facebook friends are from all different political backgrounds, so that is all I can gather. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.80.178.253 (talk) 00:52, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

Paul Fromm is not a neo-Nazi leader. There is nothing on his web site to indicate that he is, and he uses the red ensign not a swastika. He is associated with the stormfront web site, but it clearly states on that web site that they are white nationalists NOT neo-Nazis.

You can quote articles that falsely label him, but if major news sites make spelling errors, and they do, does that mean that their mistakes are actually the proper way to spell? Of course not. If an article relies completely on an unnamed source, should it be considered credible? No because you cannot verify the information. If he is a leader of a neo-Nazi group, they should be able to name that group, and if they cannot, they are either misusing words or they are being deceptive.

You can talk about who he associates with, but then you're talking about other people and if you're going to do that, you should be writing about them instead.

But let's be honest, for you, this is about making it sound as negative as possible rather than being accurate, right? The desired outcome is that people will read about Fromm here and not want to hear anything he has to say, correct? When you try to tell someone to look in one direction rather than the other, it tends to have the opposite effect. If he's as bad as you say, people will reach that conclusion when they hear what he has to say without your help.

You should either provide proof that he is a neo-Nazi leader or quote the way he identifies himself. Until you can do that, I am changing the opening sentence thay says he is a neo-Nazi to white nationalist. If you insist on undoing it without backing up your assertion with something credible, perhaps I should report you? 206.217.211.108 (talk) 12:48, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

Supervideogamekid
Can you please explain yourself why you keep reverting Fromm's wiki by stating he's a neo-nazi leader?

I see you always try to write the most uplifting thing to say about people involved in Communist groups, but try to use words such as "neo-nazi leader" for people like Fromm, who has a history of being very anti-communist. Are all anti-communists neo-nazis to you?

Fromm doesn't call himself a neo-nazi, and he has never been a member of a neo-nazi group according to my research. Wikipedia biographies are supposed to be neutral remember, so please tell me what neo nazi group/party Fromm is the leader of. Are there neo-nazi conventions where they vote for a leader like they do for the communist party of Canada, or the Conservative party of Canada?

Is he a member or leader of the Nationalist-Socialist Party of Canada? Was he a member of the American Neo-nazi party or the Canadian neo-nazi party?

Example: If you're going to state matter of a fact somebody is a "democrat", wouldn't that person have to be a member of a the democratic party, or at least have stated they are a democrat on record? Would you write a wiki article about Hillary Clinton stating she's a republican leader? Kleinback (talk) 20:31, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Mr. Fromm is not a neo-nazi. He is a conservative. He runs a free speech group(CAFE) and an immigration restrictionist group. He has neve never called for the extermination of Jews or anything of the like. I am removing neo-nazi from the beginning parapgraph. Someone calling him a neo-nazi from a newspaper doesn't make it true. Please use logic and reason instead of emotional hatred. —Preceding unsigned comment added by RG415WBFA (talk • contribs) 17:39, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

 * There is nothing to debate here. Fromm is openly praises the Nationalist-Socialist Party of Canada, and has provided legal support for its leader.  He is also heavily connected with various Klan factions in the U.S.  For the plethora of examples, these being just two, his politics fit the category of "neo"-Nazi perfectly. Frank Pais (talk) 15:37, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

There is nothing to debate. Agreed. If Paul Fromm ain't a Neo-Nazi I don't know who is? If anything this article is too unbiased... I have been to some of their meetings as a sort of "willing convert," he is more Nazi than Hitler Canadaman1 (talk) 09:12, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

Listen to Fromm's "radio show" on April 24th (Hitler's Birthday) and you'll know he's a Nazi. --- "There is nothing to debate here" - There is debate if other people are debating your position. I have done research on the Canadian right and far-right and I find that this article is heavily biased with some details that are simply false. If the editor of this article wishes to impose a particular point of view, he or she should provide readers with his/her name and credentials (assuming he/she has any). - Peter

Disputes?
Since when is obvious vandalism and POV edits considered to be grounds for legitimate disputes? In any case, where is the discussion happening with regard to how the entry should read? If there is a dispute I would have thought that a link to the discussion would have been provided. Frank Pais (talk) 22:55, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Most people have points of view, including yourself. To minimize POV bias, Wikipedia counsels using neutral language as much as possible. Calling David Fromm a Nazi is hardly neutral. It is not done for the purpose of informing the reader. It is done for the purpose of stigmatizing someone you hate. Be honest with yourself. - Peter —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.167.101.2 (talk) 00:34, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

 * And calling Richard Warman an anti-free speech whiner is neutral? Bearcat (talk) 01:12, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

 * David Fromm? Who is that?  I think you need to check the article you're commenting on.  And POV?  This has nothing to do with POV, except on the part of people who are ironically attempting to paint an admitted white supremacist and neo-Nazi organizer as a champion of democratic values.  Neutral situations demand neutral language - Fromm is the farthest thing from neutral.  Watering down unflattering facts is completely counter to maintaining a NPOV.  Frank Pais (talk) 17:04, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

"Neutral situations demand neutral language" - Are you saying that neutral language applies only to neutral situations? That seems to me an incredible statement to make. You're talking like a control freak and not like a responsible Wikipedia editor. -Peter

Size of Protests
I think it should be noted that all of the protests that this man has been a part of are extremely small. I saw the one in Victoria against the Tamils... it had about 5 people. I mean these are extemely sick people, some of them are under medical treatment. It's important that these ramblings of mostly pretty sick people are not interpreted strictly in political terms.Canadaman1 (talk) 09:09, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

Image placed in Infobox
I created File:Aryan Guard with Paul Fromm 2009-03-22 (cropped).jpg and placed in the article body, outside of the infobox. But, another user added to the infobox, leaving it in two places. I feel it belongs in the body only. Whenever possible, we should have an image of just one person for a bio infobox. In this case, cropping to just get a single person would produce a very low-quality low-resolution photo. Also, this obviously isn't a posed image, and it doesn't have subject looking anywhere near the camera. Fromm isn't even closest to the camera, but noticeably further than two other people. Somebody with no idea what Fromm looks like, could think the guy with a camcorder is the subject. A bio infobox photo, should have the subject of the article be the primary, or at-least co-equal, subject of the photo. This is an event photo. It belongs in near the text that mentions the event (with a citation), along with a full caption, making clear which person he is. --Rob (talk) 23:59, 31 July 2020 (UTC)

supremacist and twitter self-identification
To explain my edit. Fromm is a White supremacist. The lead should reflect the body of the article, which says this. Also, we should not use Fromm's self-description on Twitter. Unless somebody's tweets are published in a reliable source, they shouldn't be mentioned in Wikipedia. --Rob (talk) 06:09, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

Azemmour

Azemmour or Azammur (أزمور) is a Moroccan city, lying at the Atlantic ocean coast, on the left bank of the Oum Er-Rbia River, 75 km southwest of Casablanca.

Etymology
The word Azemmour comes from the Berber word Azemmur ("wild olive tree").

History
Azemmour is generally identified as the Punic Azama, latinized as Asama.

Before 1486, it was a dependency of the King of Fez. In 1486 its inhabitants became vassals and tributaries of João II of Portugal.

In 1513 Azemmour's governor Moulay Zayam refused to pay the tribute and mustered a powerful, well-equipped army. Manuel responded to this challenge by sending a massive fleet of 500 ships and 15 thousand soldiers (Bergreen, 19). James, Duke of Braganza led this army and on September 1  he conquered the city with no resistance from its inhabitants. Ferdinand Magellan, the man famed for leading the first-ever circumnavigation of the earth, was among the Portuguese soldiers there; he lost his horse in skirmishes outside the city. Portuguese control of the city lasted only for a short period; it was abandoned by João III of Portugal in 1541 due to his court's economic difficulties.

Geography
Azemmour is located on the Oum Er-Rbia River 75 km west of Casablanca.

Azemmour's beach is a place for surfing and kitesurfing. Also called Haouzia, the area's flora includes eucalyptus and pine.

Culture
A spring festival used to be held annually in Azemmour in March. It was first held in 2007. The patron saint of Azemmour is Abu Shuayb. His mausoleum was built on the order of Mohammed ben Abdallah. Each year, a moussem is celebrated to honour him. The Old City's walls are decorated by several local artists. The city features a medina, which has three parts, a Jewish mellah, a kasbah, and the old medina. A historic lighthouse called Sidi Boubeker is located 8 km north of Azemmour.

Notable natives or residents

 * Jaafar Aksikas, Moroccan American author and intellectual
 * Estevanico, also known as Esteban the Moor, was enslaved and traveled with a Spanish expedition to North America in 1527. He is the first African to travel with explorers in North America and was one of four men out of several hundred to survive shipwrecks on the Florida and Texas coasts, Native American slavery and attacks, and other setbacks over a six-year period before he and his party reached safety in a Spanish colonial town.
 * Abdallah Laroui, Moroccan historian, novelist and philosopher

Samuel Epstein (physician)

Samuel Seymour Epstein (April 13, 1926 – March 18, 2018) was a physician and, at the time of his death, professor emeritus of environmental and occupational health at the School of Public Health of the University of Illinois at Chicago. He is known for his contributions on avoidable causes of cancer, for which he was given the Right Livelihood Award in 1998. His papers are held at the National Library of Medicine in Bethesda, Maryland.

Biography
Epstein was born in England on April 13, 1926, to Isidore and Gertrude Epstein and emigrated to the United States in 1960. For ten years he held a position at the Children's Cancer Research Foundation and Harvard University. He then became a distinguished professor at Case Western Reserve University before moving to the University of Illinois in 1976. In addition to 270 scientific articles, he published 12 books, and was active in publicizing claims on the carcinogenic properties of chlordane pesticides, growth hormones in milk, nitrosamines in bacon, saccharin, beverage preservatives, and other food additives. His work drew criticism from the U. S. Food and Drug Administration, which claimed that his book The Safe Shopper's Bible misleads consumers by labeling safe products as carcinogenic. He was a strong critic of the American Cancer Society.

Reception
GameSpot said: "Despite its blemishes, GTR is the breath of fresh air this genre so badly needed". They awarded the game a score of 8.8 (Great). IGN.com also praised the game and gave a score of 8.5 (Great).

GTR won PC Gamer US's "Best Racing Game 2005" award. The magazine's Andy Mahood wrote: "With its licensed field of exotic sports and GT machines, exquisitely rendered European circuits, and outstanding vehicle physics, GTR advanced the technology of racing simulations to hitherto unseen levels". It was also a runner-up for Computer Games Magazine's list of the top 10 computer games of 2005.

Someș

The Someș or Szamos (Somesch or Samosch) is a left tributary of the Tisza in Hungary and Romania. It has a length of 415 km (including its source river Someșul Mare), of which 50 km are in Hungary. The Someș is the fifth largest river by length and volume in Romania. The hydrographic basin forms by the confluence at Mica, a commune about 4 km upstream of Dej, of Someșul Mare and Someșul Mic rivers. Someșul Mic (formed by the confluence of Someșul Rece with Someșul Cald) originates in the Apuseni Mountains, and Someșul Mare springs from the Rodna Mountains.

Someșul Mare has a length of 130 km and an area of 5,033 km2 and a slight asymmetry in favor of the left side of the basin. For the entire basin of Someș, the asymmetry on left becomes pronounced between Dej and Ardusat to change in the opposite direction after receiving the Lăpuș on the right side. The valley of Someșul Mare has much auriferous alluvium that, until the early 20th century, were brought to the surface using traditional tools. Specialists say that in the Someșul Mare were found grains of gold of 21 carats.

The Someș drains a basin of 18146 km2, of which 15,740 km2 in Romania. Its basin comprises 403 rivers with a total length of 5,528 km, or 7% of the total length of the country. Basin area represents 6.6% of the country area and 71% of the area of Someș–Tisza hydrographic basin.

To prevent flooding, the Someș is dammed in the lower course. In the spring of 1970, due to heavy rains, the Someș flooded part of Satu Mare and surrounding plains. The discharge exceeded 3,300 m3/s compared to that year's average of 210 m3/s.

Tributaries
The following rivers are tributaries to the river Someș:

 * Left: Someșul Mic, Salca, Olpret, Vad, Șimișna, Iapa, Cormeniș, Valea Leșului, Lozna, Valea Hrăii, Solona, Brâglez, Almaș, Agrij, Apa Sărată, Șoimuș, Bârsa, Inău, Valea Urdii, Horoat, Uileac, Sălaj, Bortura, Runc, Rodina, Bicău, Valea Vinului, Lipău, Valea Morii, Homorodul Nou, Homorodul Vechi
 * Right: Someșul Mare, Sălătruc, Muncel, Poiana, Vâtroape, Ileanda, Purcăreț, Cheud, Iadăra, Măriușa, Răchitișa, Bârsău, Arieș, Lăpuș, Nistru, Cicârlău, Ilba, Seinel

Wrathchild America

Wrathchild America was an American heavy metal band formed in Martinsburg, West Virginia, in 1978. Before settling on the Wrathchild America name in 1988, the band had performed under the names Atlantis, Tyrant, and Wrathchild. They released two studio albums through Atlantic Records, and gained charting success through the Billboard 200. In 1992, they changed their name to Souls at Zero. The band is also notable for including one-time Kix member Brad Divens, and a then-unknown Shannon Larkin, who went on to become the drummer for many bands such as Ugly Kid Joe, Candlebox, and Godsmack.

History
Wrathchild was formed in 1978 by high school friends, Shannon Larkin, Kevin Keller, and Terry Carter. Keller met Carter after school in band class and was asked to join up with his friend Larkin. They had a band at the time named "Atlantis". Ralph "Rat" Tillman and Max "Tuck" McDonald soon joined and changed the name to Tyrant and then later to Wrathchild. Brad was recruited by Kevin Keller by throwing business cards at him while he was performing with his band Ratzalad. John Turner was soon hired from his band "The Shift". Wrathchild was a renowned live act in the mid to late 1980s all across the U.S. when they were known simply as Wrathchild. After years of touring, playing gigs, and hard work, the band finally was signed to a major label in 1988 thanks in large part to the dedicated work of Chip Seligman. However, despite having completed their debut album Climbin' the Walls in May of that year, a British glam metal band with the same name, Wrathchild, sued and forced the delay of the debut release. The band amended their name by adding America, and Climbin' the Walls, finally released in August 1989, peaked at No. 190 on the Billboard 200. Their second album, 3-D (1991), coincided with the decline of the thrash metal scene and did not chart, although the album did spawn two music videos that received regular airplay on MTV's Headbangers Ball ("Spy" and "Surrounded by Idiots"). During its existence, the band toured or played selected shows with such bands as Metallica, Slayer, Exodus, Testament, Annihilator, Pantera, Nuclear Assault, Armored Saint, Gang Green, Voivod, Vio-lence, Chris Poland and Dark Angel, among others. Around 1992, Wrathchild America was dropped from Atlantic Records and changed its name to Souls at Zero and revamped its style and approach.

During the mid-2000s, former Toxik drummer Tad Leger had launched a brand new project called Lucertola (Italian for "lizard"). The group's musical style is said to be a blend of Leger's biggest influences: doom, old Voivod and Italian horror soundtracks (Goblin, Fabio Frizzi). Leger started out recording both guitar and drums himself, but was joined by his old Blackened Sky bandmate Andy Abbene and his brother Jay Abbene (Wrathchild America, Souls at Zero) in early December 2005.

Kevin Keller went on to perform with Salem with former members of Sabotage, formed his current band Vulgar Bullet in 2000. Terry Carter became involved in country music and is currently touring. Brad Divens has become an FOH sound engineer. Shannon Larkin went on to be the driving force in Godsmack.

By late 2016, rumors were circulating that Wrathchild America was planning to reunite for a series of shows and possibly new material. Frontman Brad Divens posted video clips of rehearsal videos on Facebook in mid-2017. By January 2021, however, no formal reunion of Wrathchild America had happened and there had been no updates on the current state of the band since 2017. In a June 2021 interview on the Somewhere in Time podcast, vocalist and bassist Brad Divens revealed that, during the band's near-reunion in 2017, plans were made to play at least one show at the reopening of the Hammerjack's club, but were ultimately scrapped because of scheduling conflicts, particularly including drummer Shannon Larkin's commitments with Godsmack. Divens also stated that all four members of the Climbin' the Walls lineup have not ruled out a proper reunion.

Maztica Trilogy

The Maztica Trilogy is a series of three fantasy novels that take place in the Forgotten Realms campaign setting of the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game. The books are set in the fictional land of Maztica.

Publication history
The series, written by Douglas Niles, consists of the following books:
 * Ironhelm (1990)
 * Viperhand (1990)
 * Feathered Dragon (1991)

These books take place on the fictional continent of Maztica, within the Forgotten Realms setting. The name 'Maztica' is itself a portmanteau of "Maya" and "Aztec", two major civilizations in Central America.

Plot summary
The plot of the trilogy closely mirrors the real-life discovery of the Americas by Christopher Columbus. The main character, Cordell, is similar in name to real-life conquistador Hernán Cortés. The "Conquistadors" in these stories originate from the empire of Amn in the Forgotten Realms. The states of Maztica, where the action occurs, resemble those of pre-Columbian Mesoamerica in that:
 * they have (an advanced) Stone Age technology
 * they worship many gods and offer human sacrifices
 * they build large stone pyramids
 * there is a warrior class with particular uniforms
 * there is one powerful civilization dominating the continent, from which some tribes are independent and others subjugated

The principal difference is the existence of magic in the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy world.

Central Denmark Region

The Central Denmark Region (Region Midtjylland), or more directly translated as the Central Jutland Region and sometimes simply Mid-Jutland,   is an administrative region of Denmark established on 1 January 2007 as part of the 2007 Danish municipal reform. The reform abolished the traditional counties (amter) and replaced them with five new administrative regions. At the same time, smaller municipalities were merged into larger units, cutting the total number of municipalities from 271 to 98. The reform diminished the power of the regional level dramatically in favour of the local level and the national government in Copenhagen. The Central Denmark Region comprises 19 municipalities.

Toponymy
The Danish name of the region means "Region of Mid Jutland" and describes the location in the central part of the Jutland peninsula, in contrast to Northern Jutland and Southern Jutland (which, together with Funen and some smaller islands, forms the Region of Southern Denmark). For communication in English, the regional administration decided to use another term which is not a direct translation of the Danish name, supposing that the name Jutland might be too unknown to the English-speaking public.

A similar policy is followed by the North Denmark Region (whose Danish name, Region Nordjylland, can be translated to "Region of North Jutland").

However, the name of the region is usually untranslated when used in English-language publications that are not by the regional council itself, but by governmental authorities such as Statistics Denmark. From 2007 to 2013, five so-called State Administrations or governorates existed in Denmark, covering the five regions as separate entities from the regional councils. One of these was named the "State Administration of Central Jutland" in English and covered the same area as the regional council, but had its administration in Ringkøbing as opposed to the regional council in Viborg.

In English-language media and literature by various authors, the names Central Jutland (or Mid Jutland) are also commonly used.

Geography
The Central Denmark Region comprises most of the traditional geographical regions of Østjylland (East Jutland), Midtjylland (Central Jutland), and Vestjylland (West Jutland, identical with Hardsyssel). Smaller areas within these larger designations include the peninsula of Djursland, the hilly lake district of Søhøjlandet, Kronjylland (or Ommersyssel), Fjends, Bjerreherred, and the peninsulas of Salling and Thyholm. The region borders the North Sea in the west, the Limfjord in the northwest, and Kattegat in the east. It includes the islands of Samsø, Anholt, and the smaller Endelave, Tunø, Hjarnø and Alrø in Kattegat, as well as Venø, Jegindø and Fur in the Limfjord.

The western parts of the region are characterised by coastal dunes and inland heaths, while the slightly elevated central parts and the relatively hilly eastern parts are characterised by forests, lakes and streams, with plenty of fertile soils. The eastern parts (Østjylland) are the most densely populated area within the region and form a large part of the proposed East Jutland metropolitan area with a population of about 1.4 million.

Aarhus, with a population of 280,000, is the largest city of Jutland and the second-largest city of Denmark, as well as the hub of Eastern Jutland. Other cities with a population above 30,000 include Randers, Silkeborg, Horsens, Herning, Viborg and Holstebro. Most of these are situated in the eastern part. The administration and regional council is situated in the sixth-largest city, Viborg, which has a population of 40,000 and was the medieval capital of Jutland.

Administratively, Central Denmark Region consists of the former counties of Ringkjøbing and Aarhus (except the western half of Mariager municipality which joined Region Nordjylland), most of the former county of Viborg, and the northern half of Vejle County. The areas in question from the two latter counties were the former municipalities of Bjerringbro, Fjends, Hvorslev, Karup, Kjellerup, Møldrup, Sallingsund, Skive, Spøttrup, Sundsøre, Tjele and Viborg from Viborg County and Brædstrup, Gedved, Hedensted, Horsens, Juelsminde, Nørre-Snede and Tørring-Uldum from Vejle County.

The neighbouring administrative region to the south is the Region of Southern Denmark (Region Syddanmark), as it includes not only the southern parts of Jutland but also the island of Funen and smaller neighbouring islands. Furthermore, Sønderjylland (Southern-Jutland) is the traditional name for North Slesvig, which is the Danish part of the former Duchy of Schleswig/Slesvig.

Geologically, the region lies in the northern part of Denmark, which is rising because of post-glacial rebound.

For statistical purposes, the region has two divisions or provinces: East Jutland and West Jutland. These are almost, but not entirely, identical with the parliamentary constituencies of East Jutland and West Jutland. The western constituency is much larger in area but has a smaller population than the eastern one.

Significant local antagonism arose before the region came into effect in 2007 and in the first years of its existence. Citizens in the northwestern areas protested against the closure of the hospital of Holstebro. In the 2009 regional election, a local protest party called Fælleslisten ("The Common List"), surged to 40% of the votes in the northwestern municipalities but failed to get any seats in the 2013 election.

Municipalities
The region is subdivided into 19 municipalities:

 * Aarhus
 * Favrskov
 * Hedensted
 * Herning
 * Holstebro
 * Horsens
 * Ikast-Brande
 * Lemvig
 * Norddjurs
 * Odder
 * Randers
 * Ringkøbing-Skjern
 * Samsø
 * Silkeborg
 * Skanderborg
 * Skive
 * Struer
 * Syddjurs
 * Viborg

Economy
The gross domestic product (GDP) of the region was €62.2 billion in 2018, accounting for 20.7% of the country's economic output. The GDP per capita adjusted for purchasing power was €35,400 or 117% of the EU27 average that same year. The GDP per capita employed was 107% of the EU27 average.

Regional Council
The five regions of Denmark each have a regional council of 41 members. These are elected every four years, during the local elections.

Talk:New Pekin, Indiana

Removed this sentence from the New Pekin, Indiana page: "The town of New Pekin claims the distinction of having the oldest contiunous Independence Day celebration in the United States of America."

The town of Bristol, Rhode Island has been celebrating this continually since 1785.

Bristol Rhode Island's Independence Day Celebration page: http://www.july4thbristolri.com/

This debate has gone on for years and I'm sure we could continue it for years:

http://www.americaslibrary.gov/cgi-bin/page.cgi/es/in/pekin_1

From http://64.233.161.104/search?q=cache:WBT8FiWotv0J:vh80015.vh8.infi.net/localnews/2004/07/02in/B1-moss07020-8072.html+pekin+indiana+Bristol+Rhode+Island+fourth+of+july:

"If anyone can quell doubt it is MarjiAnn Souder, a local historian and, for that matter, a rider in a 1950 Plymouth in Monday's parade."

"Souder realizes the celebration in Bristol, R.I. — three weeks of events — is older. It first was held in 1785. She contends, however, that Bristol's own documents suggest gaps — years, particularly during wartimes, when parading apparently was put off. She has uncovered no such postponements here at home."

"Souder has scoured newspapers and documents, has talked with old-timers and has concluded her community's boast is believable."

"I'm convinced personally that we've never missed one since at least the 1830s," she said.

From http://www.fettes.com/history/ffcinc/Bristol%20Parade.htm:

"From the year 1785 to the present time, the anniversary of American Independence has, with few exceptions, been duly observed by military parades, orations, and public processions."

"Extensive research of public records yields no information for seven years (1827-1833), of names of Chief Marshals or anything else that would indicate there were official town-organized parades. But documentation reveals that, with only few exceptions since 1834, a parade has been part of the Bristol Fourth. Evidence exists to demonstrate that the several years since 1834 when there were no parades, were years when the country was experiencing hard economic times, or when a lack of funds may have been a reason to cancel the official parade. Another exception to the annual parade was in 1881. The elaborate celebration planned for the day was not held because of the shocking assassination of President Garfield. The resulting feeling of respect due the Chief Executive forced the town to cancel that year's festivities."

"Between 1815 and 1850, the Town Council did not always appoint an official committee for arrangements; sometimes, there were non-official celebrations and parades and at other times there were no celebrations. This may seem a contradiction to the statement about an annual observance since 1785; but, patriotic ceremonies with prayers of thanksgiving have always taken place."

Is an event that received worldwide coverage including Norway, Australia, and New Zealand "not particularly long-term significant"?
An editor has removed 3 sentences backed up by over 3K of references with the comment "not particularly long-term significant". Why would a piece of mail found 160 miles away be long-term significant, but a world-wide story that put a large picture of several New Pekin residents in a Norway newspaper not be long-term significant?

Lakewood Cemetery

Lakewood Cemetery is a large private, non-sectarian cemetery located in Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States. It is located at 3600 Hennepin Avenue at the southern end of the Uptown area. It is noted for its chapel which is on the National Register of Historic Places and was modeled after the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, Turkey.

History
About 250 acres in size, Lakewood memorializes the dead with more than 200,000 monuments, markers and memorializations. Long considered one of the most beautiful cemeteries in the country, it was modeled after the rural cemeteries of 19th-century France, such as Père-Lachaise in Paris. When Lakewood was established in 1871 rural cemeteries were becoming more popular as part of a growing trend away from churchyard burials in the heart of the city.

In July 1871 Colonel William S. King, local businessman and newspaper publisher, proposed to community leaders of the city that they work together to establish a cemetery "on some of the beautiful locations out near the lakes, where the encroachments of the city would never seriously interfere." In August of the same year a meeting was held for establishing the Lyndale Cemetery Association (Changed to Lakewood in Feb of 1872). According to the minutes of the original meeting recorded by Thomas Lowry, "that after an examination of various localities they had chosen the land owned by William S. King lying between Lakes Calhoun and Harriet." Colonel King agreed to sell his land for the purpose at a cost of $21,000, "to be paid back over a year at 7 percent interest." The first trustees voted to raise $25,000 to purchase the land and make improvements at a time when the cost of a home in Minneapolis was about $500. The money was raised by selling 250 shares of stock at $100 a piece, two-thirds of which was purchased by the trustees themselves. The remaining balance was solicited by a committee and sold to other local investors. In April 1872 Superintendent A.B. Barton and the board of trustees employed C. W. Folsom, Superintendent of Mount Auburn Cemetery in Cambridge, Massachusetts to develop plans for the new cemetery. In October 1872 the Association reacquired all stocks that had been sold to the public.

The public dedication of Lakewood was held on September 16, 1872, with "a large number of lots being selected at the close of the exercise by the citizens present." Many of the earliest lots sold in the 1870s-1880s remained unused until 1972 when they were reclaimed for resale to the public. The first person buried in Lakewood Cemetery was Maggie Menzel who died on January 24, 1872, at the age of nineteen.

Architect Harry Wild Jones designed the cemetery's chapel which began construction in August 1908. Built of the finest materials, the chapel seats about 200 and is renowned for its beauty and superb acoustics. The dome is 65 feet high with 24 stained glass windows inset its full circumference. Charles R. Lamb of New York orchestrated the design of the chapel's interior mosaic artwork. Six highly skilled artists of Italy were enlisted to create 10 million tessellae in Venice, which were then shipped to Lakewood, where those same artists performed the arduous task of assembling them in the chapel's interior. Completed in 1910, the chapel's total cost of construction was $150,000. Lakewood Chapel was added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 20, 1983.

Cremation services were begun in 1910 and have continued to the present day. In 1965-67 a community mausoleum and columbarium was built with enough space for over 5000 crypts and niches. One of the building's more notable features are the 24 eight-foot stained glass windows by Willet Stained Glass Studios of Philadelphia. A large reflecting pool just outside the mausoleum's east side extends toward the garden crypt area and Lakewood's historic chapel nearby. In 2012, a new Garden Mausoleum, designed by HGA Architects of Minneapolis, was opened alongside the reflecting pool, adding a further 879 crypts and 4,620 cremation niches.

Since its inception in 1872 Lakewood has continued to operate as a non-profit, non-denominational cemetery providing funeral services to the public. Many Minneapolis streets, parks, and monuments bear the names of the Lakewood's original founders — Thomas Lowry, William D. Washburn, and Charles M. Loring, to name a few. The cemetery itself memorializes many notable persons, including former Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey, Civil War General Lewis A. Grant, and Senator Paul Wellstone who was killed in a plane crash in 2002.

After deciding to move his career to film, McKee attended Cinema School at the University of Michigan. While there, he directed two short films: A Day Off, which he also wrote, and Talk To Me Like The Rain, adapted from a one-act play by Tennessee Williams. These two films won the Cine Eagle Award, awards at the Brussels and Grenoble Film Festivals, and prizes at the Delta, Rochester, Chicago and Baltimore Film Festivals.

In 1979, McKee moved to Los Angeles, where he began to write screenplays and work as a story analyst for United Artists and NBC. He sold his first screenplay Dead Files to AVCO/Embassy Films, after which he joined the WGA (Writers Guild of America). His next screenplay, Hard Knocks, won the National Screenwriting Contest, and since then McKee has had eight feature film screenplays purchased or optioned, including the feature film script Trophy for Warner Bros. (Only one of these films, however, was produced). In addition to his screenplays, McKee has had a number of scripts produced for television series such as Quincy, M.E. (starring Jack Klugman), Mrs. Columbo (starring Kate Mulgrew), Spenser: for Hire and Kojak (starring Telly Savalas). McKee was also an early instructor at the pioneering Los Angeles film school the Sherwood Oaks Experimental College.

Starting the STORY seminar
In 1983, as Fulbright Scholar, McKee joined the faculty of the School of Cinema-Television at the University of Southern California (USC), where he began offering his STORY Seminar class. A year later, McKee opened the course to the public, giving a three-day, 30-hour intensive class to sold-out audiences around the world.

Since 1984, more than 50,000 students have taken McKee's course in cities around the world: Los Angeles, New York, London, Paris, Sydney, Toronto, Boston, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Helsinki, Oslo, Munich, Tel Aviv, Auckland, Singapore, Barcelona, Stockholm, São Paulo and more. In March 2011 and again in 2012, he taught a four-day seminar in Bogotá, Colombia. In February 2012, he taught another four-day seminar in the Ramoji film city of Hyderabad in India. He did the same in Amsterdam, March 2014.

McKee's current lecture series includes the three-day "Story Seminar", one-day "Genre Seminars" (teaching the conventions of love story, thriller, comedy, horror, action and writing for television) and the one-day "Storynomics Seminar", teaching the application of storytelling principles in the business and marketing world (co-lectured with CEO of Skyword Tom Gerace).

McKee continues to be a project consultant to major film and television production companies, corporations and governments around the world, as well major software firms such as Microsoft. In addition, several companies such as ABC, Disney, Miramax, PBS, Nickelodeon and Paramount regularly send their creative and writing staffs to his lectures.

Life and awards
Notable writers and actors such as Geoffrey Rush, Paul Haggis, Akiva Goldsman, William Goldman, Joan Rivers, David Bowie, Kirk Douglas, John Cleese, Tony Kaye, and Steven Pressfield, have taken his seminar.

In 2000, McKee won the 1999 International Moving Image Book Award for his book Story (Regan Books/HarperCollins). The book has become required reading for film and cinema schools at Harvard, Yale, UCLA, USC and Tulane universities. The book was on the Los Angeles Times best-seller list for 20 weeks. It is translated into more than 20 languages.

In 2017, McKee was inducted into the Hall of Fame at the Final Draft Awards, an honor that recognizes professionals who have had a "profound influence on the industry" joining peers such as Lawrence Kasdan and Steven Zaillian.

McKee's other credits include writing and presenting the BBC series Filmworks, the Channel 4 series Reel Secrets, the BAFTA Award-winning J'accuse Citizen Kane television program which he wrote and presented, and the writing of Abraham, the four-hour mini-series on Turner Network Television (TNT) that starred Richard Harris, Barbara Hershey and Maximilian Schell.

Criticism
McKee has been criticized by screenwriter Joe Eszterhas for teaching screenwriting without ever having had one of his scripts made into a film. McKee has responded to such criticisms, noting that "the world is full of people who teach things they themselves cannot do" while admitting that even though he has sold all of his screenplays, he still lacks screen credits for them since they were never produced by the studios that bought them, only optioned. In fact, McKee does have at least one known credit: as writer of the 1994 TV movie Abraham and the 2001 animated cartoon, 'Barbie and the Nutcracker.'

Many of the ideas he discusses have been around since Aristotle and appear in the work of William Archer. Nevertheless, McKee himself tells his students that Aristotle is the basis for much of what he teaches, credits much of his writing on conflict and drama to the teaching of Kenneth Thorpe Rowe, and he often distributes some of John Howard Lawson's writings at his seminar: he acknowledges his forebears and never claims that he is inventing a brand new approach to storytelling. Furthermore, he claims that much of what he teaches was common knowledge 50 or 60 years ago, but that screenwriters have lost touch with the fundamentals of storytelling. In a CBC interview he said that to give his lecture in the 1930s, '40s or '50s "would have been ludicrous". McKee also appears and is criticized in several works, for example, Missionnaire by French author Joann Sfar.

Anecdotes

 * McKee claims in his seminars that he does not say not to use voice-over narration. There is some truth to the scene in Adaptation however, as he vehemently teaches that using voice-over to substitute for telling the story via action and dialogue is weak, whereas he teaches that voice-over used to counterpoint and enrich the story can be wonderful.
 * In a Haaretz article, McKee was quoted as saying in front of a Tel Aviv audience that Israelis have a rough sense of humor, completely different from the known worldwide Jewish one, since Israelis are living in a harsh reality which leads them to lose their sense of humor.

Hertha Thiele

Hertha Thiele (8 May 1908 – 5 August 1984) was a German actress. She is noted for her starring roles in then controversial stage plays and films produced during Germany's Weimar Republic and the early years of the Third Reich. After the post-war partition of Germany, Thiele became a television star in East Germany. She is best remembered for her portrayal of Manuela in the lesbian-themed film Mädchen in Uniform (1931).

Career in Weimar and Nazi Germany
One of her early drama teachers told Thiele "Either you'll have a great stage career or nothing at all. You have a Botticelli face but one which suggests depravity". Thiele began her professional acting career in 1928 as a stage actress in Leipzig. In 1931, she was given the lead role in Gestern und heute, the film adaptation of a play she had done there, but now called Mädchen in Uniform, a tale set in a Prussian boarding school for girls. The film had an all-female cast, and Thiele played Manuela, a 14-year-old schoolgirl deeply infatuated with her teacher Fräulein von Bernburg, played by Dorothea Wieck. Mädchen in Uniform was distributed internationally and briefly made Thiele a star. She received thousands of fan letters, mostly from women.

In 1932, she starred with Ernst Busch in Bertolt Brecht's Kuhle Wampe. In 1933, Thiele had a leading role in Kleiner Mann, was nun? and reunited with Dorothea Wieck in Anna and Elizabeth, another lesbian-themed film that was banned by the Nazis soon after it opened and which she later said was the most important work of her career. She also continued to work in theatre during the early 1930s, including productions with Max Reinhardt (Harmonie, 1932) and Veit Harlan (Veronika, 1935).

Her career was thwarted when the Nazi government approached her with repeated requests to assist in the production of National Socialist propaganda. During one meeting with propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels, who advised Thiele to "familiarise" herself with National Socialism, she replied "I don't blow with the wind each time it changes directions". Although she made efforts to reach a workable understanding with Goebbels, the Nazis had come to view her work as mostly subversive, and she was excluded from the Reichstheater and Reichsfilmkammer. In 1937, she left Germany for Switzerland. It was another five years before she was able to find acting work in Bern.

Later fame in East Germany
Hertha Thiele returned to East Germany after the war but was unsuccessful in her efforts to begin a theatre. She returned to Switzerland and worked as a psychiatric nursing assistant during most of the 1950s and 1960s. In 1966, Thiele again returned to the GDR, working in stage productions in Magdeburg and Leipzig. During the 1970s, she was often seen on East German television acting in sundry series and television films which were virtually unknown in West Germany, including the popular Polizeiruf 110. In 1975, Thiele's work was featured in the television documentary Das Herz auf der linken Seite and in 1983 a monograph on her life and work was published by Deutsche Kinemathek.

Thiele reportedly married more than once. One of her husbands was actor Heinz Klingenberg.

Toward the end of her life, Western feminists researching the history of Mädchen in Uniform sought her out, and she enjoyed a small measure of renewed cult celebrity before she died in 1984.

In 1998 German film historians Heide Schlüpmann and Karola Gramman noted "her acting success may well have been based upon her image which met the homo-erotic desires of both men and women, though perhaps more those of women", and that Hertha Thiele "told us she would have liked to have played a 'proper love scene' with a man, once in her life: her image, moulded by men, didn't allow her the expression of this desire".
