He worked at the Dominion Bank and then at Maple Leaf Milling Company. He was stationed at Port Colborne for a while. Before leaving for the front, he was with Bankers Bond Company of Toronto and is also listed as working with the firm of Bailey, Wood and Cross. Lieutenant Band received a Certificate of Military Qualifications on Dec. 24th, 1914. He received his Certificate of Military Instruction on Nov. 30, 1915. He received these certificates while with the 48th Regiment (Highlanders). He enlisted in 1914 and went overseas in August of 1915 as an officer in the 35th Battalion. By August 26, 1915, he is listed as being with the 23rd Reserve Battalion. A year later, in August of 1916 Lieutenant Band arrived in France and was posted to the 2nd Battalion – “The Second Iron”. In 1916, Band was the victim of shell shock received during a charge. He was wounded in April of 1917 at Vimy Ridge yet he remained on duty. At this time he received a gunshot wound to his right jaw. He earned a promotion to Captain on September 16th, 1917. He was wounded again in November of 1917 at Passchendaele where he suffered a gunshot wound to the ear. For his courage and determination Percy Band received the Military Cross on February 18, 1918. He led his company under difficult circumstances even though he was wounded. He was awarded a bar to the Military Cross for gallantry during a successful attack on two villages on December 2nd, 1918. During this attack he led his company against enemy machine guns. It is said that he displayed exceptional leadership qualities and skill during this time. On the 30th of August in 1918, he made a daring reconnaissance to the front under heavy fire in an attack on Upton Wood.

He died suddenly on May 19, 1961. The Toronto Telegram published this about him: “Captain Percy Carruthers Band, M.C. with two Bars, Croix de Guerre with Palm – was an officer whose buoyant spirit and gallantry mirrored the vibrant soul of the Battalion. Blythe of heart, yet endowed with a fine sense of responsibility, he gave inspired leadership of No. 3 Company.”

Raça e educação na América Latina: um estudo comparado do pensamento de José Veríssimo (Brasil/1857-1916) e José Ingenieros (Argentina/1877-1925)

O presente estudo teve como objeto de pesquisa o pensamento de José Veríssimo (Brasil) e José Ingenieros (Argentina) sobre raça e educação. Trata-se de uma proposta circunscrita num estudo comparado deste pensamento entre esses dois intelectuais. Problematizou-se como questão central: de que forma o pensamento de José Veríssimo e José Ingenieros articula a relação entre raça e educação na América Latina do final século XIX e início do século XX? Como objetivo geral, desejou-se analisar, por meio de um estudo comparado, o pensamento de José Veríssimo e de José Ingenieros sobre educação, dando destaque às interações destes com o conceito de raça na América Latina do século XIX. Como objetivos específicos, pretende-se: 1) destacar o contexto histórico do pensamento educacional de José Veríssimo e José Ingenieros; 2) identificar nas obras destes autores as relações entre raça e educação, assim como correlacionar o pensamento de José Veríssimo e de José Ingenieros sobre raça e educação com a história do pensamento intelectual latino-americano. Metodologicamente, inscreve-se o estudo no campo da História Intelectual e da História Cultural. O corpus da pesquisa está composto de duas obras de cada autor. De José Veríssimo, trabalhou-se com As Populações indígenas e mestiças da Amazônia: sua linguagem, suas crenças e seus costumes (1887) e Educação nacional (1906). De José Ingenieros, cotejou-se El hombre medíocre (1913) e Las fuerças morales (obra póstuma). Os resultados do estudo indicam que o modo como as teorias da raça chegam a América Latina são fundamentais para a compreensão do pensamneto dos autores. Nesse sentido, foi preciso realizar uma breve reflexão sobre as discussões teóricas que o tema raça suscitou na América Latina do século XIX, já que tanto José Veríssimo quanto José Ingenieiros nasceram e viveram parte de suas vidas nesse período. O primeiro nasceu no extremo norte do Brasil, no Estado do Pará, e viveu entre 1857 e 1916. Dedicou-se ao estudo da Crítica Literária e refletiu sobre a educação, colocando-a como instrumental necessário para a elevação da população mestiça do país à condição de civilizada. O segundo nasceu em Palermo, na Itália, mas migrou para a Argentina ainda criança, tornando-se cidadão argentino. Dedicou-se ao estudo da Psiquiatria, mas enveredouse, em particular, pela área da Antropologia Criminológica. Ao discutir as perturbações mentais dos indivíduos na sociedade argentina, José Ingenieros se reporta à colonização e às condições materiais dos sujeitos. Para ele, no final do século XIX as raças inferiores continuavam a representar um entrave para o desenvolvimento da Argentina. À princípio, identifica-se que o homem medíocre de Ingenieiros muito se assemelha ao homem indolente de Veríssimo. Ambos os estados – medíocre e indolente – representavam, para estes intelectuais, um estado atrasado que não se via mais presente no homem civilizado. Desse modo, defendem condições externas objetivas diferentes para que, tanto na Argentina quanto no Brasil, as mudanças internas determinadas pela raça, que resultaram no homem medíocre e indolente, fossem superadas. Dentre essas condições externas, a educação desponta como elemento necessário para a superação da indolência e da mediocridade.
