Abstract:
Nell Battle Lewis began writing a column for the 'News and Observer' in 1921. Lewis, a supporter of white public motherhood and white supremacy, advocated a agenda of social reform that included the rights of textile workers and women. During World War II, Lewis was unable to balance her political ideology with the changing world. Until her death in 1956, Lewis called for white mothers to protect their families from liberals, civil rights activists, Communists, and the federal government.

Abstract:
In 1791, Nathaniel Macon entered the U.S. House of Representatives and began a 37 year career in Congress. During those years, he spent 24 in the House and 13 in the Senate, and demonstrated a strong degree of Anti-federalism throughout. Macon had a deep suspicion of overarching power and subsequent corruption, supported white male suffrage, desired to protect individual freedoms, feared unfair taxation and patronage, and wanted to protect state sovereignty through the strict interpretation of the Constitution.
