  • Rochdale Village and the Rise and Fall of Integrated Housing in New York City by Peter Eisenstadt
    Rochdale Village and the rise and fall of integrated housing in New York City by Peter Eisenstadt When Rochdale Village opened in southeastern Queens in late 1963, it was the largest housing cooperative in the world. When fully occupied its 5,860 apartments contained about 25,000 residents. Rochdale Village was a limited-equity, middle-income cooperative. Its apartments could not be resold for a profit, and with the average per room charges when opened of $21 a month, it was on the low end of the middle-income spectrum. (3) It was laid out as a massive 170 acre superblock development, with no through streets, and only winding pedestrian paths, lined with newly planted trees, crossing a greensward connecting the twenty massive cruciform apartment buildings. Rochdale was a typical urban post-war housing development, in outward appearance differing from most others simply in its size. It was, in a word, wrote historian Joshua Freeman, "nondescript." (4) Appearances deceive. Rochdale Village was unique; the largest experiment in integrated housing in New York City in the 1960s, and very likely the largest such experiment anywhere in the United States (5). It was located in South Jamaica, which by the early 1960s was the third largest black neighborhood in the city. Blacks started to move to South Jamaica in large numbers after World War I, and by 1960 its population was almost entirely African American. It was a neighborhood of considerable income diversity, with the largest tracts of black owned private housing in the city adjacent to some desperate pockets of poverty.

  • Of Paul Robeson 53
    J. Karp: The “Hassidic Chant” of Paul Robeson 53 Performing Black-Jewish Symbiosis: The “Hassidic Chant” of Paul Robeson JONATHAN KARP* On May 9, 1958, the African American singer and political activist Paul Robeson (1898–1976) performed “The Hassidic [sic] Chant of Levi Isaac,” along with a host of spirituals and folk songs, before a devoted assembly of his fans at Carnegie Hall. The “Hassidic Chant,” as Robeson entitled it, is a version of the Kaddish (Memorial Prayer) attributed to the Hasidic rebbe (master), Levi Yitzhak of Berditchev (1740–1810), a piece also known as the “Din Toyre mit Got” (“The Lawsuit with God”). According to tradition, Levi Yizhak had composed the song spontaneously on a Rosh Hashanah as he contemplated the steadfast faith of his people in the face of their ceaseless suffering. He is said to have stood in the synagogue before the open ark where the Torah scrolls reside and issued his complaint directly to God: a gut morgn dir, riboynoy shel oylem; ikh, levi yitzhak ben sarah mi-barditchev, bin gekumen tzu dir mit a din toyre fun dayn folk yisroel. vos host-tu tzu dayn folk yisroel; un vos hos-tu zich ongezetst oyf dayn folk yisroel? A good day to Thee, Lord of the Universe! I, Levi Yitzhak, son of Sarah, from Berditchev, Bring against you a lawsuit on behalf of your People, Israel. What do you have against your People, Israel? Why have your so oppressed your People, Israel?1 After this questioning of divine justice, Levi Yitzhak proceeded to chant the Kaddish in attestation to God’s sovereignty and supremacy.

  • From the Civil War to Civil Rights in Music Tues, Feb 15Th at 10:00 Am
    John Clark and his Great American Music Experience presents From the Civil War to Civil Rights in Music Tues, Feb 15 th at 10:00 am Through the Miracle of Zoom ETHEL WATERS BILLIE HOLIDAY MARIAN ANDERSON PETE SEEGER It all began in the 1840s with the RESISTANCE of the secret subversive songs of the slaves and the abolitionist songs of the Hutchinson Family Singers. The next important contributions were by the Fisk Jubilee Singers (1870s) and Bert Williams (1906), representing the REAFFIRMATION of the humanity and heritage of African-Americans. During this same period there appeared the first R ALLYING CRY anthems Oh Freedom and Lift Every Voice and Sing . Program also reviews important events of 1938-1939, including John Hammond’s From Spirituals to Swing concerts, Marian Anderson’s Lincoln Monument performance and the songs Strange Fruit by Billie Holiday and Ballad for Americans by Paul Robeson. Duke Ellington’s Black, Brown & Beige and Rodger & Hammerstein’s You’ve Got to Be Carefully Taught appear in the 1940s. Civil Rights music leading up to 1963’s March on Washington ( We Shall Overcome and Blowin’ in the Wind ) round out the program. Other featured artists are Ethel Waters, Fats Waller, Nat King Cole. FROM THE CIVIL WAR TO CIVIL RIGHTS IN MUSIC, PARTS ONE & TWO A. BACKGROUND Before 1865 Almost all the first Africans who arrived in the New World were slaves. They came from several regions of the African West Coast. Their ways of living were described by slaves themselves, in some narratives. They had to work either in plantations or in town.

  • Operanotes 1776 & Ballad 7/6/18.Pages
    More Background: Page 3 1776 [director’s cut] & Ballad For Americans July 6, 2018 1:00 PM - Encore Theater English Subtitles “Ballad” will be played both before and after the showing of “1776.” This musical, “1776,” is a depiction of the momentous events out of which sprang the document known as “The Declaration of Independence”. Many specifics of the day-to-day interactions among the members of the Second Continental Congress are less than historically accurate. But the competing positions underlying the disputes that had to be resolved between representatives of the disparate thirteen British colonies (they had not yet become “States”) are fairly presented. The New England and mid-Atlantic colonies had different economic interests and societal values than those in the South. With each side holding fast to their initial positions, little progress toward reaching any consensus had been made since they had first convened the previous year. Those differences are made clear to us through the actions of the three main protagonists in our drama: John Adams (portrayed by William Daniel), Benjamin Franklin (Howard da Silva) and Thomas Jefferson (Ken Howard). All are spot-on, as is the depiction of the features of the host city of Philadelphia. 1776: Runtime: 168 minutes • Filmed by Columbia Pictures Corp • Released in 1972; DVD Restored/released by Sony 2002 • MPAA PG (LANGUAGE) • ASIN: B000067D1R Ballad For Americans: 10 minutes • lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC Audio Recording Remastered/released 1990 on Vanguard • ASIN: B000000ECS Page !1 of !4 When our story begins, the battles of Lexington and Concord (April 1775) were history.

  • Paul Robeson: Triumph and Tragedy TVUUC April 27, 2019 This Is The
    Paul Robeson: Triumph and Tragedy TVUUC April 27, 2019 This is the text of the service which was accompanied by music performed by soloists and the choir. I have added links to YouTube videos of Paul Robeson performing the various songs as well as to three videos that are mentioned in the text. The literature on Robeson is vast. The most comprehensive biography is Paul Robeson, by Martin Bauml Duberman, New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1988. Prelude “By and By” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8W59quHJr_A Opening Words We begin with Shakespeare. It is the last speech of Othello, Paul Robeson’s greatest stage role. Othello has killed Desdemona and his life is in ruins. When they come for him from Venice, he says Soft you; a word or two before you go. I have done the state some service, and they know't. No more of that. I pray you, in your letters, When you shall these unlucky deeds relate, Speak of me as I am; nothing extenuate, Nor set down aught in malice: then must you speak Of one that loved not wisely but too well; In this service we will recount the life and career of a great American, Paul Robeson, someone little remembered today. We will try to do justice to the rich and complex life of this man. Paul Robeson was a great singer, so much of the service will consist of the music that helped define him. The prelude was a spiritual that he often performed as a duet with his friend and accompanyist, Lawrence Brown.
