Anthony and Andrew Westbrook: a Fascinating Narrative of Disunity

It gets stranger. Both arsonists were destroying their own property. And both were members of the Westbrook family. Father and son! On April 20, 1779, Anthony Westbrook set fire to the fortified house of Major Johannes Decker Jr., which housed his confiscated property. Branded a “traitor to his country” by both neighbours and kin in the area, Anthony now returned for revenge with the much- feared Joseph Brant. If Anthony Westbrook could not enjoy his furniture, then the hated rebels would certainly not either. On January 31/Feb. 1, 1814, son Andrew, equally a traitor in British eyes because he had taken up the American cause in the War of 1812, razed his own house, mill, barns and storage buildings in Delaware Township, Middlesex County. -
Riots & Looting in Philadelphia
Joseph C. Gale Commissioner Board of Commissioners Montgomery County, Pennsylvania June 1, 2020 PRESS STATEMENT: RIOTS & LOOTING IN PHILADELPHIA What we saw this weekend in Philadelphia was not a protest - it was a riot. In fact, nearly every major city across the nation was ravaged by looting, violence and arson. The perpetrators of this urban domestic terror are radical left-wing hate groups like Black Lives Matter. This organization, in particular, screams racism not to expose bigotry and injustice, but to justify the lawless destruction of our cities and surrounding communities. Their objective is to unleash chaos and mayhem without consequence by falsely claiming they, in fact, are the victims. For years, our police men and women have been demonized and degraded by the radical left. As a result of this defamation and character assassination, as well as a complicit media constantly pushing the bogus narrative of systemic police brutality and white racism, law enforcement is afraid to do their job of protecting innocent people and their property. In addition, too many Democrat mayors are sympathizers of these far-left radical enemy combatants. As a result, their misguided empathy has enabled a level of unfettered criminality never witnessed before in American history. Sadly, Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney falls in this category of sympathetic Democrat mayors. And his handpicked Philadelphia Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw seems to share her boss's sentiment. Frankly, the name Outlaw fits her to a tee. This past weekend, I watched television coverage of police officers being ordered to stand down as the statue of Frank Rizzo was spray painted, lit on fire and attempted to be pulled down. -
Balletx Premieres Short Dance Films About Life in Lockdown by Kristi Yeung
Screenshot courtesy of BalletX BalletX Premieres Short Dance Films About Life in Lockdown by Kristi Yeung How many performances have we lost to coronavirus? I’m sure the list of shows canceled, postponed, and never started would fill many depressing pages. So let’s instead think about something positive: how many works have we gained? The short dance film has become more popular than ever as a result of social distancing. Adding to the growing collection, BalletX recently premiered four videos as part of the Guggenheim’s Virtual Works & Process series. In Caili Quan’s “100 days,” Chloe Perkes embodies the silliness that emerges when your home becomes your whole world. She executes balletic kicks and turns that devolve into hip-swaying grooves as her real-life husband attempts to read in the background. Performing in Hope Boykin’s “…it’s okay too. Feel,” Savannah Green and Ashley Simpson shift between stillness and energetic sequences in rooms made more claustrophobic by split screens and shrinking frames. Penny Saunders’ “Brown Eyes,” featuring Andrea Yorita and Zachary Kapeluck, explores an unstable relationship pushed to its breaking point by confinement. It uses reflections, shadows, and video overlays to intensify the visual tension created by the choreography. The final work to premiere was Rena Butler’s “The Under Way” (working title). Before the pandemic began and George Floyd was tragically killed, BalletX Artistic and Executive Director Christine Cox approached Butler to create a piece about the Underground Railroad. A portion of this work was supposed to premiere live at the Guggenheim museum this spring. -

1 Exploring the Public Library As a Space for Civil Conversation by Engaging with the Confederate Monument Debate Overview
Exploring the Public Library as a Space for Civil Conversation by Engaging with the Confederate Monument Debate Overview “Many libraries host public programs that facilitate the type of discourse that offers citizens a chance to frame issues of common concern, deliberate about choices for solving problems, create deeper understanding about others’ opinions, connect citizens across the spectrum of thought, and recommend appropriate action that reflects legitimate guidance from the whole community.” (Nancy Kranich) In this activity, students will begin to think about the public library as a space for civil discourse then engage in respectful dialouge surrounding a controversial issue themselves. Students will learn about a community conversation about Confederate monuments held at the Chapel Hill Public Library in August 2017 and using the Civil Conversations Model from the Constitutional Rights Foundation, students will read about then discuss in small groups the controversy surrounding Confederate monuments. (This activity can be conducted as part of a visit to the public library, during which students explore the library as a space for civil discourse, or in the classroom.) Grades 8-12 (teachers will modify the readings provided based on the level of students taught) Materials • Civil Conversations handout, attached o Originally created by the Constitutional Rights Foundation • Anti-Confederate Monument Articles, attached o “Americans should renounce Confederate leaders the same way Germans renounce Hitler” o “Why White Southern Conservatives
