MICHAEL KENNEDY, ESQ. 100 Flintshire Way, Coppell, TX 75019 WASHINGTON, DC - Danielle E. M. Bielenstein Dear friends, “Summer time and the living is easy”. So wrote my cousin Dubose Heyward when he penned the words to this famous song. Having spent most of his life in Charleston, he wrote “Porgy”, which became “Porgy and Bess”, which was a huge success. Our Annual Congress was another great event. Meeting in Independence Hall is a spiritual affair. As a grandchild of one (or more) of the fifty-six patriots who actually founded this great nation, one can easily drift back in time and almost hear the voices of our ancestors as they debated the question of Independence. Membership in this society means that you are someone special. As we enter our ninety-eight year, our society is poised for growth. Plans have been laid for a huge, very special cel- ebration at Williamsburg, VA in October of 2007. I do hope that you start to plan now to attend. Why not make it a family affair? Plan to bring all the children. They must know their heritage. They should learn it from you. A new Scholarship Committee has been named. More information about this scholarship which is only available to DSDI members will be posted on our web-site later in the fall. The Committee on the By-Laws is busy refreshing the rules we govern by. The Grave-site Recognition Committee is also hard at work. Our records are now in order and in a new data base available to our officers who need that information. The new Editor of “The Spirit of ‘76” is up and running and on the job. And your ideas are always welcome. I’m looking forward to an exciting meeting at Princeton in October. And, I sure would enjoy sharing that experience with you.

The workshop would be hosted by the Princeton Physics Department and the Princeton Institute for Computational Science & Engineering (PICSciE). Peter Elmer and David Lange would be the lead local organizers. Princeton has a large group working on the CMS experiment and elsewhere across high-energy We have sized our proposal assuming up to 75 physics. participants for two full days and one half day (morning) but other scales are possible. Princeton is also the lead institution on the recently NSF-funded software institute IRIS-HEP. How to get to Princeton Princeton University is well connected to much of the world due to its proximity to New York City. There are two direct flights on most days from Geneva, as well as from most major airports in Europe and the U.S.. The easiest way to get to Princeton from New York City airports is by train. In general cars are not required, as the hotel, conference venue and relevant local businesses are within walking distance of one another once one has arrived on campus. Local Area: Princeton’s campus is located on 500 acres in the heart of New Jersey. Princeton is one or two hours from major destinations including New York City, Philadelphia and the New Jersey shore. Closer to campus options for getting away from the conference include: a downtown district for shopping and dining; art exhibitions and events, including a free campus art museum, https://artmuseum.princeton.edu/]; and more than a dozen parks and historical sites are within walking distance, including the Princeton Battlefield, the Delaware and Raritan Canal towpath and the Charles H.

  • Voices of African American Princeton
    © Copyright, Princeton University Press. No part of this book may be distributed, posted, or reproduced in any form by digital or mechanical means without prior written permission of the publisher. Introduction “The North’s Most Southern Town” I The time is the twentieth century and the place is the center of the borough of Princeton, New Jersey, where white church spires and flowering, tree- lined streets reflect the aura of the world- renowned Princeton University, well known for a steady stream of Nobel Prizes and accolades for its illustri- ous professors, graduates, and alumni. Every year, thousands of visitors from around the world walk the hallowed grounds where famous predecessors have tread, not only at Princeton University but also at the nearby Insti- tute for Advanced Study, Princeton Theological Seminary, and Westminster Choir College. Unknown to most of those visitors, as well as to most university students and local white residents, is the existence of an active, yet historic African American community in the very heart of Princeton, only a few minutes’ walk from the university. This book, I Hear My People Singing: Voices of African American Princeton, gives testimony to the firsthand experiences of individuals who built a close- knit and vibrant community within a segregated Northern Jim Crow town, where “the doctrine of white supremacy was held almost as tenaciously above the Mason- Dixon Line as below it.”1 This neighborhood took shape in the 1700s across the road from what would become Nassau Street and Princeton University’s Nassau Hall. Origi- nally established by the Presbyterian Church as the “College of New Jersey” in 1746 in Elizabeth, New Jersey, and permanently situated in Princeton in For general queries, contact [email protected] © Copyright, Princeton University Press.
