  • Kimberly Adams Dalia Angrand Danielle Carniaux Alicia Ciocca
    Mary Cregan Master Class The Woman in the Mirror May 20, 2019 Hosted by New-York Historical Society FELLOWS Kimberly Adams Broome Street Academy Charter School, grades 11, 12, teaching 9 years, English I have done work in both my Journalism and English 12 classes looking at texts through a gender lens and doing research surrounding both American and global gender dynamics. I am passionate about engaging students of all genders in reflection on how gender norms and gender discrimination affects us all, not just women. I also find it more important than ever to bring awareness to elements of intersectionality when discussing feminism. Dalia Angrand Williamsburg Preparatory School, grades 10, 11, teaching 18 years, English Students often start out nervous and resistant when I ask them to write narratives, or to write creatively in any way. However, that resistance almost always turns to excitement as they begin to list, draw, diagram, and free-write about their lives, drawing power from their own stories. Over time, they craft compelling narratives: authentic responses to experiences, both positive and negative, that they often had no control over. Writing becomes a way for them to exert that control. Danielle Carniaux The Clinton School, grades 9, 12, teaching 8 years, IB Language and Literature This was the first year I integrated third-world feminism into my curriculum on post-colonial literature. It was a challenging and gratifying topic. Students agreed that western feminism (second- and third-wave) didn’t meet the needs of women of the third worlds, but they had a harder time understanding that third-world feminism isn’t just intersectional—it is unique to developing countries and their populations.

    “What YCP is doing is truly amazing. It was incredibly rewarding to work in an environment where you understood the near-term impact you were having on so many families.

  • Early Steps Celebration 30Th Anniversary Thursday, May 18, 2017 the University Club New York, NY
    Benefit Early Steps Celebration 30th Anniversary Thursday, May 18, 2017 The University Club New York, NY Early Steps 540 East 76th Street • New York, NY 10021 www.earlysteps.org • 212.288.9684 Horace Mann School and all of our Early Steps students and families, past and present, join in celebrating Early Steps’ 30 Years as A Voice for Diversity in NYC Independent Schools Letter from our Director Dear Friends, For nearly three decades, it has been my joy and re- sponsibility to guide the parents of children of color through the process of applying to New York City in- dependent schools for kindergarten and first grade, helping them to realize their hopes and dreams for their children. While over 3,500 students of color entered school with the guidance of Early Steps, it is humbling to know that the impact has been so much greater. We hear time and © 2012 Victoria Jackson Photography again how families, schools and lives have been trans- formed as a result of the doors of opportunity that were opened with the help of Early Steps. Doors where academic excellence is the norm and children learn and play with others whose life’s experiences are not the same as theirs, benefitting all children. We are proud of our 30-year partnership with now over 50 New York City independent schools who nurture, educate and challenge our children to be the best that they can be. They couldn’t be in better hands! Tonight we honor four Early Steps alumni. These accomplished young adults all benefited from the wisdom of their parents who knew the importance of providing their children with the best possible education beginning in Kindergarten.

  • REVIEW 2013 - 2014 Dear Friend of Randall’S Island Park
    REVIEW 2013 - 2014 Dear Friend of Randall’s Island Park, Thank you for your interest in Randall’s Island Park. As Co-Chairs of the Randall’s Island Park Alliance (RIPA) Board of Trustees, we invite you to enjoy our 2013-2014 Review. RIPA’s continued success in reaching our goals comes through the great work and generosity of our many partners and supporters – a true Alliance in support of the Park’s programs, fields, facilities and natural areas. You will find in the following pages photos and acknowledgements of the many local program partners, donors, volunteers, elected officials and City and State agencies who have helped to bring us to this point. We are especially grateful to the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation for extraordinary support and guidance throughout our successful partnership of more than 20 years. Following its recent transformation, Randall’s Island Park’s visibility continues to grow, and more and more New Yorkers are visiting its shores. Our fellow Board Members, challenged and inspired by what the Park can be, continue to contribute countless hours and crucial support. In 2014 the Board undertook a comprehensive plan for improvement and expansion of our free public programs. Visits to the Island have nearly doubled in recent years, to approximately 3 million! We expect our increased free programming will continue to expand our universe of visitors and friends. Many thanks to these millions of fans who visit and who compliment the Park through positive feedback on our social media, sharing photos and observations, and who help us to grow our Alliance every day.
