The Week of Non-Violence was initiated in 2013, in recognition of countless minority youth and adults, who are victims of gun violence and random violence. The goal is to help young people, law enforcement and violence-prone adults learn that violence can be prevented through anger management, conflict resolution, de-escalation, improved law enforcement/community relations and other evidence-based methods. Harry Belafonte Mr. Belafonte is the Honorary Chair of the 2017 Week of Non-Violence, Justice & Opportunities. Joining him are Civil Rights Legends Dr. Bernard Lafayette, Chair of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference; Rev. James Lawson, who trained the Freedom Riders in the 1960’s; former Los Angeles Congresswoman Diane Watson; Kemba Smith, Criminal Justice Advocate whose unfair 24.5 year prison sentenced was commuted by President Bill Clinton in December 2000; Michelle Bernard, MSNBC https://www.charlestonchronicle.net/2017/09/20/leadership-team-announces-fifth-annual-week-of-non-violence-justice-and-opportunities/ 1/4 9/24/2017 Leadership Team Announces Fifth Annual Week of Non-Violence, Justice and Opportunities – The Charleston Chronicle Anchor; Lucy McBath, Spokesperson, Moms Demand Action Against Gun Violence; and Chris Daniel, Project Management/Conflict Resolution Expert. Partners for the 2017 Week of Non-Violence are the National Black Nurses Association, Moms Demand Action, Next Generation Action Network, Highmark, Inc., United Steelworkers Union, National Organization of Black Law Enforcement (NOBLE) Masjid Muhammad, the Nation’s Mosque, Wednesday Clergy Fellowship, the Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Washington, D.C. and the Positive Change Foundation. Bernard Lafayette Dr. Bernard Lafayette, esteemed Civil Rights Leader and Honorary Co-Chair of the 2017 Week of Non-Violence, Justice and Opportunities states, “Training individuals and groups in the Kingian Nonviolence strategy is essential to accomplishing positive results. Charlottesville was a stark example of what could happen when individuals and groups of citizens are not trained in expressing their discontent in a nonviolent way. During the civil rights era, if we had not engaged in a strict nonviolent movement, blood would have flowed in the streets even more so than it did. Protesters must be trained to resist violence despite temptation and to look toward reconciliation.” Virginia Delegate Daun S. Hester and Dr. Stephanie E. Myers, BW4PC National Co-Chairs commented, “We appreciate the dedicated leaders who are organizing non-violence events. During this time of global and national stress, natural disasters, and violence in communities we must work together to avoid conflicts and violence, with the goal of “Changing the Culture of Violence in America, and the World.” Lucy McBath Events will include Town Hall meetings, workshops, rallies, quilting bees, videoconferences, and non-violence concerts. Activities are scheduled in Houston, TX: Washington, D.C., Chicago, Ill., Los Angeles, CA; Cincinnati, OH; Durham, NC; Pittsburgh, PA; Miami/Dade, FL; Virginia Beach, Richmond & Hampton Roads, VA; the United Kingdom, and Pretoria, South Africa.

This is your democracy. Make it. Protect it. Pass it on.” The NAACP Legal Defense Fund has been pursuing that mission since its founding. Through litigation and advocacy, LDF works to protect and preserve our democracy, so that its promises of liberty and justice can at last be made real for all Americans.

The guide is divided into mathematics and science sections, which each are subdivided into groupings: kindergarten through grade 2, grades 3 and 4, and grades 5 and 6. Many of the lessons can be adjusted for other grade levels. Each lesson has the following nine components:(1) concept statement; (2) instructional objectives;(3) male and female African American role models;(4) affective factors;(5) materials;(6) vocabulary; (7) teaching procedures;(8) follow-up activities; and (9) resources. The lesson plans are designed to supplement teacher-designed and textbook lessons, encourage teachers to integrate black history in their classrooms, assist students in developing an appreciation for the cultural heritage of others, elevate black students' self-esteem by presenting positive role models, and address affective factors that contribute to the achievement of blacks and other minority students in mathematics and science.

  • RIVER ROAD MOSES CEMETERY: a Historic Preservation Evaluation
    Gibson Grove Cemetery, Montgomery County THE RIVER ROAD MOSES CEMETERY: A Historic Preservation Evaluation Report prepared for the River Road African American community descendants David S. Rotenstein, PhD Silver Spring, Maryland September 2018 [email protected] (404) 326-9244 Management Summary This report presents research on the River Road Moses Cemetery site in Bethesda, Maryland. It was prepared on behalf of the River Road African American descendant community. The following sections include a historic context divided into periods developed by the Maryland Historical Trust for the evaluation of historic properties. The historic context presents substantive archival and oral history research documenting the cemetery site, the community within which it is located, the fraternal organization that founded it, and its historical connections to Washington, D.C. The historic context is used as a baseline to evaluate the property against the Montgomery County criteria for designation in the Master Plan for Historic Preservation and the National Register of Historic Places. This report finds that the River Road Moses Cemetery appears to be eligible for designation in the Montgomery County Master Plan for Historic Preservation under four criteria: for its associations with the development of Montgomery County and the region; because it exemplifies multiple aspects of Montgomery County’s heritage; because it embodies distinctive characteristics typical of its historic property type; and, because it represents a distinguishable entity within a cultural landscape. The River Road Moses Cemetery furthermore appears to be eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places under three criteria. The site appears to be eligible for listing under Criterion A for its associations with African American and suburban history; Criterion C for its architectural and landscape qualities; and, Criterion D for its potential to yield significant new information in history.
