It The has witnessed a lot of history, and seen a century’s worth of excitement. The theater itself has stood proudly on 125th Street since 1914, when it started life as a burlesque house for whites only, Hurtig & Seamon’s New Burlesque Theater. Dancers in skimpy costumes stripped down to flesh-colored leotards, and comics told bawdy jokes – that is, until then New York City Mayor Fiorello H. LaGuardia made the decision to close down burlesque houses all over the city. When the doors of the burlesque theaters were padlocked, the building was sold. By S ul the time it reopened in 1934, a new name proclaimed itself from the marquee: the 125th Street Apollo Theatre. From the start, the Apollo was beloved by Harlemites, and immediately of became an integral part of Harlem life. When the Apollo first opened, Harlem boasted a lot of theaters and clubs. But many didn’t admit black audiences. Though the musicians who played in the clubs were black, the audiences were often white; the country still had a lot to American learn about integration. But the Apollo didn’t play primarily to whites. As soon as it opened its doors, black residents of Harlem streamed in themselves to enjoy the show. In the early years, the Apollo presented acts in a revue format, with a variety of acts on each bill.

  • The Name Curriculum : Exploring Names, Naming, and Identity
    Bank Street College of Education Educate Graduate Student Independent Studies Spring 5-9-2021 The name curriculum : exploring names, naming, and identity Isabel Taswell Follow this and additional works at: https://educate.bankstreet.edu/independent-studies Part of the Curriculum and Instruction Commons, Curriculum and Social Inquiry Commons, Early Childhood Education Commons, and the Language and Literacy Education Commons 1 The Name Curriculum: Exploring Names, Naming, and Identity Isabel A. Taswell Cross-Age: Early Childhood and Childhood General Education Mentor: Ellen Ferrin Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Science in Education Bank Street College of Education 2021 2 Abstract The act of naming, or using and respecting one’s name, is a humanizing act: it is foundational to one’s sense of identity and belonging. Conversely, the act of ‘de-naming,’ or changing, forgetting, or erasing one’s name, is an act of dehumanization: it denies one’s sense of identity and belonging. The Name Curriculum provides an opportunity for third grade students to explore the role of names and naming as they relate to one’s sense of self and community. It draws on the role of developmental psychology, the urgency of historical context, and the power of children’s literature. Specifically, it explores how language development informs a connection between one’s name and sense of self, how patterns within and across historical events exemplify connections between naming and oppression, and how children’s literature can provide accessible entry points for meaningful conversations about naming, identity, and belonging. Over the course of the year, students consider questions related to names, identity, oppression, power, and belonging.

  • 18 ======Some History of Central Park
    ===================================================================== RNA House History Club Session Seventeen March 4, 2018 ===================================================================== Some History of Central Park The story of Central Park is complex and stretches from 1850 to the present, over 160 years. Leading up to the decision to create a grand public park in the 1850s was the growth and expansion of NYC. In the first half the 19th Century, New York City's population grew from ninety thousand to half a million. Most of the over 500,000 New Yorkers lived south of 30th Street. Lower Manhattan was lively and noisy with some densely packed poor districts. There were a few public spaces like City Hall Park and Battery Park and some gated parks for the wealthy, but there was not much green space within the central city. While most New Yorkers lived in lower Manhattan, by 1850, over 20,000 New Yorkers some wealthy, some poorer, had moved to the outer districts, what are now the UWS, Central Park, the UES and Harlem. These districts were comprised of scattered mansions and estates and small, distinct villages, existing independently of each other and some farms. Even though a State commission had laid out a street grid plan for NYC in 1811, due to irregular landholdings and natural obstructions the grid plan did not have much effect in the outer districts until later in the 19th Century. NYC owned some of the land. Large plots were owned by wealthy families and some small plots were individually own. The extension of trade lines, the expansion of craft production into sweatshop manufacturing, and the organization of banks and insurance and railroad companies had transformed the port of New York into a national shipping, industrial, and financial center.

Residence elsewhere, as I made up my mind in early life, is mere eclipse and obscurity to those whose energy is capable of shining in Rome.” Marcus Tullius Cicero “New York City, the incomparable, the brilliant star city of cities, the forty-ninth state, a law unto itself, the Cyclopean Paradox, the inferno with no out-of-bounds, the supreme expression of both the miseries and the splendors of contemporary civilization, the Macedonia of the United States.
