  • The Wolfe Institute the Ethyle R
    The Wolfe Institute The Ethyle R. Wolfe Institute for the Humanities, presents Understanding the Gezi Park Protests During early Summer 2013, mass protests broke out in Istanbul’s Taksim neighborhood in reaction to Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan’s insistence on plans to (re)construct a former Ottoman barracks (as a shopping mall), within one of the city’s only parks. As peaceful protests were met with violent police actions, they grew to unprecedented numbers, and they spread throughout the country. This talk will place the protests into a social-political context, and will address the government’s continued clampdown on dissent. Kumru Toktamis teaches social sciences and cultural studies at Pratt Institute and in the sociology department at Brooklyn College. She received her Ph.D. from the New School for Social Research (2007), her dissertation was on “From Mobilization to Nationalism: Kurdish Movements and Turkish Nationhood.” Her book chapter “Democractization and Tribes in Libya” is coming out in 2014. Her current project is entitled “Gezi and Clashing Authoritarianism: Laicists, Islamists and Kurds.” Louis Fishman specializes in questions dealing with Palestinian and Israeli history in the late Ottoman period, the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, and modern Turkey. He has written about the recent Gezi Park protests for Today’s Zaman, a Turkish online daily, the Haaretz, and others. His blog, “Istanbul-New-York- Tel Aviv,” named after the three cities where he lives throughout the year, focuses on Israeli, Palestinian, and Turkish politics and social issues.

  • Winston Preparatory School a Singular Focus on How Your Child
    Winston Preparatory School A Singular Focus on How Your Child Learns Four years ago as I looked at the Winston website the first thing I saw was a testimonial by parents saying that they felt they ‘got their child back.’ And I sat and cried, because there was nothing I wanted more. As soon as I spoke with you, and as soon as Caroline and I met you, we knew we were at the right place. Within that first year, I felt we had our daughter back. I can never thank you enough. Winston has provided the safety, support, and skill for Caroline to flourish. She has struggled and she has overcome. She has grown into an independent, confident young adult with the skills needed to navigate and thrive. She understands herself and is at peace with herself. She is eager to learn, and eager to connect with others. She has opened herself to new experiences that have enriched her life. Winston has put her in the best possible position to find happiness. There will always be issues and setbacks, but she has been given the strength to endure and learn from her challenges. Caroline has learned the meaning of being a part of a wonderful community. In her choice of college, she has shown how much she values that experience. We have benefited from that sense of community as well and we have been strengthened by your unending friendship, guidance, and compassion. With love, Sherry & Mitch F., Parents Your child can learn.
