XX, núm. 2, 2008, pp. 261-267 The City University of New York New York, Estados Unidos Available in: http://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=37712148020 How to cite Complete issue Scientific Information System More information about this article Network of Scientific Journals from Latin America, the Caribbean, Spain and Portugal Journal's homepage in redalyc.org Non-profit academic project, developed under the open access initiative The book ends with two pictures, taken in 2000, of the graves of Puerto Rican musicians Rafael Cortijo and Ismael Rivera. This is the crowning oddity of b o o k the book. Cortijo and Rivera were both island-born and their musical legacy is intimately tied to Puerto Rico’s musical tradition. Yes, they had an impact on the music that developed in Spanish Harlem, but it is a stretch to suggest that they are r e v i e w s part of Spanish Harlem’s legacy. It is not only peculiar that they would be featured in this book, but also that the author would choose to use pictures of their graves. The symbolism may have been unintended but it is hard to ignore. Are we to believe that Spanish Harlem’s legacy is at this point only documentary in nature? Is the cultural symbiosis of Afro-American and Afro-Caribbean traditions that took place in Spanish Harlem during the first half of the twentieth century over? I doubt Alava believed this.

    AAND NOW LET'S BUILD A BETTER WORLD@: THE STORY OF THE ASSOCIATION FOR THE HELP OF RETARDED CHILDREN, NEW YORK CITY 1948 - 1998 DAVID GOODE CITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK DECEMBER, 1998 1 DEDICATION To Anne Kraus, a founding member of AHRC who passed away during the period of this writing. To Anne, to all the founding parents who have gone before her, and to those time has not yet claimed, I dedicate these pages. Through her life and those of the others, through what they achieved by extraordinary dedication to their children, let us all be reminded that we are but temporary residents here with a basic responsibility to help build a better world. 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I want to especially thank Shirley Berenstein and her assistant Dana Bilsky without whose cooperation this document would never have been completed. In addition, my gratitude to Gunnar Dybwad, former Executive Director of the National Association for Retarded Children and currently Director of the Samuel Gridley Howe Library on the grounds of the Fernald School in Boston, who provided access to his historical files and to those of Elizabeth Boggs. I would also like to acknowledge the role of Michael Goldfarb in helping to conceive this project, in considering and hiring me, and for the many hours of stimulating conversations that were a side-benefit of this writing. Finally my appreciation to all those who were interviewed, both formally and informally, and who contributed to my understanding of AHRC and of the parents' movement in the field of mental retardation. 3 "Faithfulness to the truth of history involves far more than a research, however patient and scrupulous, into special facts.

  • Board Committee Documents Faculty, Staff and Administration Agendas
    I-B-2 COLLEGE OF STATEN ISLAND Naming of the Geraldo Rivera Fund for Social Work and Disability Studies RESOLVED, That the Board of Trustees of The City University of New York approve the naming of the “Geraldo Rivera Fund for Social Work and Disability Studies” at the College of Staten Island. EXPLANATION: Geraldo Rivera is a New York-based journalist, talk show host, author and philanthropist. Mr. Rivera has a long association with the site of the College of Staten Island (“CSI”) campus, which was previously the location of the Willowbrook State School. He earned a Peabody Award in 1972 for his exposé on the inhumane conditions at Willowbrook, which was closed down in 1987. Mr. Rivera has been an active advocate for people with disabilities ever since. He was invited by social work students to speak at their commencement in Spring 2014 and was inspired by the students and programs at CSI designed to serve people with disabilities, including a new Master’s of Social Work program with a unique focus on meeting the needs of people with disabilities. In December 2014, Mr. Rivera pledged a gift of $250,000 to the CSI Foundation to establish a fund to support conferences, symposia, lectures, and publications that will inform public policy and contribute to the improvement of services for people with disabilities. The goal of the fund is to make a significant impact on the development and dissemination of knowledge and practice in the fields of social work and disability studies by bringing together an interdisciplinary array of scholars, practitioners, policy makers, thought leaders, and the public for in-depth exploration and information sharing.
