Elizabeth Eckford's Appearance at Little Rock: The Possibility of Children's Political Agency

POLITICS, Issue 1 2008
Sana M. Nakata
In 1957, Hannah Arendt argued against the legally enforced desegregation of public schools in the American South. She argued that African Americans had mistaken schools and education for a site of political debate, when they properly belonged to a social realm instead. This article disagrees and reconsiders Arendt's separation between the social and political realms. Arendt also took exception to the role Elizabeth Eckford, a 15-year-old, played in this debate. It is argued here that Elizabeth Eckford's actions were deeply political and give rise to a need to consider the possibility of children's political agency. [source]

Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule Expression in Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of the Head and Neck,

THE LARYNGOSCOPE, Issue 6 2000
James A. Hutcheson MD
Abstract Objective To investigate whether there is a correlation between neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) expression and perineural spread in patients with adenoid cystic carcinoma of the head and neck (ACCHN). Study Design Retrospective review of medical records and immunohistochemical staining of specimens from 37 patients treated at the University of Arkansas in Little Rock from 1987 to 1997. Methods Sections from paraffin-embedded specimens were e-amined for the presence of NCAM using monoclonal anti-NCAM antibody by avidin-biotin-pero-idase immunohistochemical staining. NCAM staining was scored in each specimen and correlated with the data obtained from patient charts. Results Twenty-five of 37 specimens (68%) showed histopathological evidence of perineural spread. All 37 specimens (100%) stained positive for NCAM, regardless of perineural spread status. Conclusion Our results suggested that the use of NCAM expression as a predictor of perineural spread is highly unlikely. [source]
