  • KRWG Quarterly Program Topic Report April, May, June
    KRWG Quarterly Program Topic Report April, May, June 2009 INTRODUCTION Through meetings with local community leaders, review of area newspapers and other publications, and production of a nightly newscast (Monday to Friday), the staff of KRWG-TV have determined that the following issues are of primary importance to the citizens within our coverage area: Health/Welfare/Safety – Petty crimes and drive-by shootings are an on-going problem in this area. While the over-all crime rate is no higher than the national average, low-income families and a higher than average teenage population contribute to the gang and crime problem. The chronic low-income family problem also results in health and welfare issues including an above average social services caseload and a high number of welfare cases handled by the local hospital. Culture – The mix of Hispanic/Native American/ and Anglo cultures provide many positive attributes to life in southern New Mexico. However, this same mix results in an on-going undercurrent of conflict among the cultures. Cultural and historical understanding is of on-going importance in this area. Business - With an above-average unemployment rate and a below-average income level, the status of the business/agricultural community in southern New Mexico is an important and on-going issue. Concern over the constant issue of defense spending at the federal level is ongoing in this area due to the presence of several military and NASA installations. Dona Ana county is also actively seeking new businesses and a strong infrastructure exists near the Santa Teresa Border Crossing, which is also a source of news and related issues.

    Fall 2019 Volume XIX, No. 2 The Dover Historical Society, P.O. Box 534, Dover, Massachusetts 02030 www.doverhistoricalsociety.org The President’s Letter Connie Hines, Alan Young, and Bamboo Harvester (aka Mr. Ed) “Hollywood East - The Famous Mr. Ed” As stewards of the Town’s institutional memory, local historians have much to be serious about, and yet there are times when our past and our present intersect in a lighter fashion. Readers of a certain age will no doubt recall the popular television show Mr. Ed, which ran from 1961 to 1966, featuring a talking Palomino and his hapless owner, Wilbur Post, played by actor and one-time Dover resident Alan Young. “Young and his second wife, Virginia McCurdy, purchased a newly constructed home at 4 Knollwood Drive” While best known for his role as Wilbur Post, the British born Canadian bred actor had a lengthy career beginning with The Alan Young Show which aired on Canadian radio from 1940-1944, in the United States from 1944-1949, and on television from 1950-1953. Young received two Emmys for the television show in 1951. It is the role of Wilbur Post, however, for which he is best known. Ironically, his television wife, Carol Post, was played by actress and Dedham native Connie Hines (1931-2009). Guest stars playing themselves on the show included Mae West, Clint Eastwood, George Burns, Zsa Zsa Gabor, and Sharon Tate. In the aftermath of Mr. Ed, Young retired from acting in order to help establish a film and broadcasting center for the First Church of Christ, Scientist in Boston.

Brandt 1. The Sitcom Genre and Carnivalesque Humor 1 “An animal sits at a desk, writing”—thus Philip Armstrong begins his study of the meaning of animals in fictions of modernity (What Animals Mean 1). The scenario of an animal writing a letter while sitting at a desk may seem absurd; yet, this is the exact setting that viewers of the TV sitcom Mister Ed are confronted with in the 1962 episode “Horse Sense” (season 3, episode 6): The show’s animal protagonist, a white palomino horse named Mister Ed, stands at a desk and produces a letter on a typewriter (Fig. 1).2 By acting like (but not necessarily as) a human, Mister Ed embodies ethnologist Claude Lévi-Strauss’s famous dictum that natural species are “good to think with” (89).

  • Saving Our Children
    SAVING OUR CHILDREN Queer Teacher Organizing, the Religious Right, and Battles Over Child Protection in South Florida’s Schools, 1977-1997 Undergraduate Thesis Presented to the Department of History Columbia University in the City of New York April 3, 2015 Jared Odessky Seminar Advisor: Mae Ngai Faculty Advisor: Ansley Erickson Acknowledgements I share credit for this project with my teachers. Over the past four years, the faculty members and teaching assistants of the Columbia Department of History challenged me, inspired me, and ultimately prepared me to write an undergraduate thesis. Caterina Pizzigoni’s course on early Latin American civilization sparked my interest in the study of history starting my first semester. Graduate students Lindsey Dayton and Nick Juravich encouraged me to explore the history of American labor and education. In their seminar on post-World War II American conservatism, Mark Lilla and Alan Brinkley first exposed me to Anita Bryant’s “Save Our Children” campaign, setting this research in motion. Mae Ngai fearlessly led a group of determined but bewildered novice historians through our thesis seminar. Along with our teaching assistant Anna, she offered endless encouragement throughout the research and writing processes. Ansley Erickson graciously stepped in as my second reader in the midst of crisis, and her thoughtful commentary was instrumental in guiding the completion of this project. Miriam Frank of New York University coached me along the way. She welcomed me into her home, served me homemade soup, and after countless hours of discussion, made sure that I left with extensive revisions and a banana for the road.

  • 2017 Annual Report
    2017 ANNUAL REPORT Jeremiah Program 2017 Annual Report | 1 Dear Friends, 2017 was a dynamic year for Jeremiah Program. In addition to building on our strong outcomes for mothers and children in Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota and Boston, Massachusetts, we opened an expanded campus in Austin, Texas; finished construction on our campus in Fargo, North Dakota; welcomed our first cohort of mothers to our new program in the Brownsville neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York; and secured land and lead gifts to build a residential campus in Rochester, Minnesota. We are so proud of how far we have come. This year marks our 20th year of successfully transforming families out of poverty. When Jeremiah Program began in 1998, we started with 18 families. Over the past twenty years, we are proud to say that we have helped hundreds of single mothers graduate with a college degree and family-sustaining wages while preparing their kids to excel in school. To date, we have touched the lives of nearly 3,500 women and children, providing them with the resources they need to set themselves on a path to prosperity. Our work is needed more now than ever. Almost 10 million single parent families headed by women live in the country and more than 18 million children of single mothers are living in poverty (US Census). With the rise of single motherhood, demographers now estimate that 50% of all American children will live with a single mother before turning 18 and 70% of children raised by single mothers live in poverty. With families facing deep barriers to achieving social and economic prosperity, our services are critical to help single mothers and their children reach their highest potential.
