I am an assistant professor in the Department of Politics and Government at Illinois State University, where I teach various graduate and undergraduate courses on American politics. My research deals mostly with race, social movements, democratization, and political parties in the United States and South Africa. I earned my BA in Political Science from Hunter College of the City University of New York and my MA and PhD in Government from the University of Virginia.

Great Depression in South Africa

I found your addition to the Great Depression/Addendum subpage admirably clear and very interesting. If you could find time to develop it into a separate article, I guess that would be generally welcome. Nick Gardner 07:10, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

Thanks! I'll see what I can do once I've gotten my bearings around here a bit more - I'm still very new to Citizendium (and relatively new to wiki collaboration) Shamira Gelbman 01:18, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
