From Trenton, NJ to the Nation… the Hedgepeth-Williams and Brown V Board Of the newsletter of Isles, Inc. summer 2011 Empowerment Takes Root: From Trenton, NJ to the Nation… The Hedgepeth-Williams and Brown v Board of Education Decisions Howell Living History Farm Visits Trenton p.9 On the occasion of Isles 30th Anniversary, we celebrated a groundbreaking, but little known racial justice link between Trenton and Princeton. It all started with segregated schools in Trenton in 1943, and some members of the Hedgepeth and Williams families, who decided to stand up for their 12 year old childrens’ right to attend their Isles 30th Anniversary neighborhood school. Ten years later, the Gala p.5 Honorable Thurgood Marshall used it as a critical precedent for arguing Brown v. Board of Education, the landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision that overturned the “Separate but Equal” doctrine across the land. A major funder of that litigation was Princeton’s Bill Scheide. At our 30th Gala, Isles was delighted to honor two of Berline William’s children, Thelma Williams Napoleon Smith and Ernest A. Williams, and Bill and Judith Scheide.

  • Funk Is Its Own Reward": an Analysis of Selected Lyrics In
    ABSTRACT AFRICAN-AMERICAN STUDIES LACY, TRAVIS K. B.A. CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY DOMINGUEZ HILLS, 2000 "FUNK IS ITS OWN REWARD": AN ANALYSIS OF SELECTED LYRICS IN POPULAR FUNK MUSIC OF THE 1970s Advisor: Professor Daniel 0. Black Thesis dated July 2008 This research examined popular funk music as the social and political voice of African Americans during the era of the seventies. The objective of this research was to reveal the messages found in the lyrics as they commented on the climate of the times for African Americans of that era. A content analysis method was used to study the lyrics of popular funk music. This method allowed the researcher to scrutinize the lyrics in the context of their creation. When theories on the black vernacular and its historical roles found in African-American literature and music respectively were used in tandem with content analysis, it brought to light the voice of popular funk music of the seventies. This research will be useful in terms of using popular funk music as a tool to research the history of African Americans from the seventies to the present. The research herein concludes that popular funk music lyrics espoused the sentiments of the African-American community as it utilized a culturally familiar vernacular and prose to express the evolving sociopolitical themes amid the changing conditions of the seventies era.

Works Progress Administration. Index of American Design. Date 1929-2018 (bulk 1936-1942) Extent 290 cubic feet (734 boxes); approximately 29,000 digital files Abstract This collection documents the activities of the Index of American Design, a Federal Art Project to preserve and document the development of American folk and decorative arts from the colonial period through 1900 while providing relief work to unemployed artists, researchers, and photographers during the Great Depression. Materials consist of correspondence, memoranda, reports, lists, data sheets, publications, photograph prints and negatives, color notes. Historical Note Created in 1935, the Index of American Design (Index) was a program in the Fine Arts Divisions of the Federal Art Project (FAP) under the Works Progress Administration (WPA). The Index project had three objectives: to employ and maintain the skills of artists who found themselves unemployed during the depression years; to preserve America’s artistic and cultural heritage by documenting the development of arts and crafts in different parts of the country; and to create a series of portfolios from the Index watercolor renderings that would serve as a permanent guide for artists, scholars, and the public. The initial idea for the Index project began with discussions between Romana Javitz, head of the New York Public Library’s Picture Collection, and artists who were conducting research in the collection for WPA projects.
