Newsletter of the New Jersey Catholic Historical Commission January 2016 Volume III, Issue 2
Newsletter of the New Jersey Catholic Historical Commission January 2016 Volume III, Issue 2 The Catholic Historian’s Handbook by Carl Ganz The New Jersey Catholic Historical Commission proudly announces the publication of its latest book: The Catholic Historian’s Handbook. Recognizing that there are a number of amateur historians who can make significant contributions to the field of local Catholic history, the Commission is pleased to offer a guide to assist them in doing just that. Getting started in a local history project is a challenge unto itself, and very different from the history projects that researchers may have done in school. This book was written based on input from the members of both the New Jersey Catholic Historical Commission and the Diocese of Metuchen Historical Records Commission. The goal was to gather in one place all the advice, guidance, and collective experience of the 200-plus combined years of academic service of the members of these commissions. The book’s unofficial subtitle, Everything We Wish We Knew Before Starting Our First Catholic His- tory Project, is a most apt one as we tried to embody in one short volume all the infor- mation, thoughts, insights, suggestions, and knowledge that would have helped us dur- ing our first time performing research in this field. Our goal is to allow the amateur his- torian to benefit from that experience, learning from our mistakes, so that no one The Commission’s newest publication wastes time or grows frustrated in their efforts in the field of American Catholic history. Some of the topics covered are: Inside this issue What is history? * History vs.

SAHRA AHMED BORDENTOWN MANUAL TRAINING AND INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL THE TUSKEGEE OF THE NORTH ED P&L 863: AFRICAN AMERICAN EDUCATION 1700-1950 NOVEMBER 24th, 2010 BORDENTOWN MANUAL TRAINING AND INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL “For a seventy year period, when America cared little about the education of African Americans and discrimination was law and custom, The Bordentown School was an educational utopia. An incubator for black intellect, Bordentown taught values, disciplines and life skills to generations of black children. The school closed in 1955 in the wake of the Supreme Court Brown vs. Board of Education decision. What was lost and what was gained in the march toward integration and equality?” (PBS- A Place Out of Time: The Bordentown School, May 2010). The Bordentown Manual Training and Industrial School went by many names; it was called The New Jersey Manual Training and Industrial School for Colored Youth, Ironsides Normal School, Old Ironsides, and it was also referred to as “The Tuskegee of The North.” Tuskegee University in Alabama was founded by African American educator and leader Booker T. Washington (1856-1915). Washington1 believed African Americans needed vocational and manual skills in order to prosper and “disparaged literature and philosophy as unnecessary for and unsuited to agricultural and industrial2 menials” (Dennis 1998:146). Washington’s biggest nemesis in regards to what constituted as proper education for African Americans was historian, educator and civil rights activist W.E.B. Du Bois3. Du Bois encouraged “the talented tenth” of black people to strive for the highest education possible to uplift and elevate the masses and advance civilizations to come.
