New Orleans Anti- Trump Protest Take ‘Em Down NOLA and New Orleans Workers Group will hold an organized demonstration in front of City Hall, at Duncan Plaza, to denounce policies of the Donald J . Trump Administration, and other policies that infringe of the majority in the nation . The planned protest will convene at 3 p .m . Central Time, and is open to the general public . The protest organized by Take ‘Em Down NOLA and the New Orleans Workers Group will demonstrate against fascism, White supremacy and the rule of billionaires, which, according to protest leaders, are representa- tional of Donald Trump’s charac- ter and action . Several other organizations around the nation will be participat- ing in similar protest, using the joint hashtag #J20 on Twitter, Facebook and other social platforms . In New Orleans, Take ‘Em Down NOLA and New Orleans Workers Group will use the #J20NOLA hashtag . This past November, similar but less organized anti-Trump rallies and protest were rampant across New Orleans and other cities across the nation after Donald Trump was named President-elect . While those protest were not linked to Take ‘Em Down NOLA or the New Orleans Worker Group, Malcom Suber, the official spokes- person for both organizations, said these protest are operating under the same general concept . “People are upset about the Trump victory in November and his administration being inaugu- rated on Friday,” Suber said . “In the upcoming protest, we are opposing policies that the Trump Administration will sup- port,” he added . Many Republicans in the most recent Care attempting to disman- tle the Affordable Care Act, which, in essence, subsidizes expensive health treatments for many Ameri- cans, and prevent insurance com- panies from dropping or raising premiums with individuals with terminal illnesses . Without the act, many Americans would be without Affordable Health Insurance . Ac- cording to Donald Trump’s cam- paign, he is a supporter of disman- tling the legislation . “Trump is a right-wing su- premacist who won by playing the race card and misguiding the gen- eral public .

  • Lester Blackwell Granger's Vision of the Social Work Profession As a Tool for Achieving Racial Equality
    FILLING THE RANKS: LESTER BLACKWELL GRANGER'S VISION OF THE SOCIAL WORK PROFESSION AS A TOOL FOR ACHIEVING RACIAL EQUALITY Annie Woodley Brown, D.S.W., Howard University School of Social Work Before social work education embraced the idea that the social work profession had a significant contribution to make in the struggle for social and economic justice and against discrimination, Lester Blackwell Granger, longtime head of the National Urban League, pushed and prodded the profession to broaden its perspective. He had greater success, at the time, in convincing young Black students at Dillard University in New Orleans, Louisiana, to enter the profession and use the tools of social work to effect social change than he did in getting the profession of social work more involved in the struggle for civil rights. This narrative documents his vision of the potential of the profession and his influence on some who entered it.

  • The Education of African Americans in Southern New Jersey from 1920-1945
    ACCUMULATION OF KNOWLEDGE: THE EDUCATION OF AFRICAN AMERICANS IN SOUTHERN NEW JERSEY FROM 1920-1945 by JANET E. ALLEN A dissertation submitted to The Graduate School of Education Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Education Graduate Program in Social and Philosophical Foundations of Education Approved by _____________________________ Catherine A Lugg, Ph.D., Chairperson _____________________________ James Giarelli, Ph.D., Committee _____________________________ Louis Ray, Ph.D., Committee New Brunswick, New Jersey January 2011 ABSTRACT Research Question: What individuals, institutions and organizations were instrumental in the development of the educational philosophy for African Americans in Southern New Jersey from 1920-1945? Methodology: This dissertation employed oral history in the qualitative tradition using video recording equipment. Data were gathered from twelve participants representing nine family groups and four southern New Jersey Counties. The data were coded and analyzed to determine common and distinct themes which influenced the participants’ individual and collective educational experiences. Findings: South Jersey, bordering Delaware, Maryland and Virginia inherited their racial attitudes from their southern neighbors. These southern ideologies were reflected in the types of schools available to black children during that era. The findings were as follows. 1. The participants all attended public schools in South Jersey. The grammar schools were segregated; and those who attended high school attended integrated schools or The Manual Training and Industrial School for Colored Youth at Bordentown. 2. The participants’ parents who had greater socio-economic status than their peers and/or had cultural and social capital were able to orchestrate their children’s education.
