  • Full Board Meeting
    C O M M U N I T Y B O A R D 7 Manhattan ______________________________________ RESOLUTION Date: January 5, 2021 Committee of Origin: Steering Re: The Exonerated Five. Full Board Vote: 35 In Favor 0 Against 4 Abstentions 0 Present Committee: 15-0-1-0. Non-Committee Board Member Vote: 15-0-0-0. This resolution is based on the following facts: The Exonerated Five, formerly known as the Central Park Five, are five Black and Latino men who in the Spring of 1989 were teenagers who were wrongfully prosecuted and convicted for the brutal and vicious attack and rape of a white woman jogger in Central Park. They are Antron McCray (15 at the time), Kevin Richardson (15), Raymond Santana (14), Korey Wise (16), and Yusef Salaam (15); at the time all resided in Harlem. The prosecution followed many hours of aggressive interrogation of the teenagers without the presence of their parents that resulted in coerced confessions that were later recanted. The crime provoked intense media attention and public outrage that affected the trials and stigmatized the youth of the Harlem community and beyond. Despite inconsistent, inaccurate and recanted coerced confessions, DNA evidence that excluded them, and the absence of any eyewitness accounts connecting them to the victim, the Five were convicted (one as an adult). All served their complete sentences, ranging from 6 to 13 years in prison. After they served their complete sentences, the convictions were vacated and the Five were exonerated when a man named Matias Reyes, whose DNA matched evidence from the crime scene, confessed to the crime in 2002.

  • "The Scholar's Stake in Television Preservation"
    "The Scholar's Stake in Television Preservation" Testimony before "The Current State of Television and Video Preservation," a public hearing organized by the Library of Congress, March 19, 1986, New York City William Boddy Professor, Department of Speech, Baruch College Certificate Program in Films Studies, Graduate Center City University of New York 370 Riverside Drive Apt. 6E New York NY 10025 tellfax: 2 12: 864-9804 [email protected] Thank you for the opportunity to speak to you this morning about a subject--television preservation--which is crucial to the work of scholars and educators across many fields and academic institutions. My words today will, I hope, build upon previous testimony from educators in Los Angeles, including Janet Bergstrom, who spoke as a representative from the Society for Cinema Studies, an organization I have been actively involved with for over a decade. I would also like to acknowledge the Library of Congress's earlier work on film preservation, including the hearings which produced the 1994 report, "Redefining Film Preservation: A National Plan." I defer to the expertise of others who will speak before you on technical matters of physical preservation and legal practice; what I wish to add is simply the voice from a community of scholars and educators whose work would be immeasurably impoverished without access to the national heritage of television and video material. While occasionally arcane and technical- sounding, the work of television and video preservation, I believe, serves to support nothing less than the fundamental need of citizens in a democracy to understand their collective past and to actively shape their own cultural and political futures.
