This is Burton Siegel. David, when and where were you bom? DAVID COHEN: When, November 13, 1914. In South Philadelphia. I believe on Kater Street in South Philadelphia. INT: You say you "believe" on Kater Street? COHEN: Well, I believe that was. The brother who knew all the exact history is no longer here with us. But that's my memory, and we moved from there before I was three. We moved with horse and buggy, and I have no memory of South Philadelphia at all. Nor do I have any memory of riding in a horse and wagon which transported everything. INT: Where? COHEN: To 3 113 Germantown Avenue, which is where I grew up, went to school. All the public schools in that area, beginning with the Simon Muir Elementary School, where I spent eight years. Kindergarten plus eight years elementary. I skipped one grade, so I did the nine years in eight years. And then went on to Northeast High School. INT: What was the block on Germantown Avenue like? COHEN: It was a small row of stores in the southern end of the block. The block sort of ended, right after about a third of a block, because a Pennsylvania Railroad line takes over going to the old North Philadelphia station. It ran right two doors away from where I was raised. The downstairs was a store that sold wallpaper, retail.

COUNTRYMAN University of Michigan This article traces the origins of black independent electoral activism in Philadelphia during the 1970s to the Black Power movement of the 1960s. Specifically, it argues that Black Power activists in Philadelphia turned to electoral strategies to consolidate their efforts to achieve community control over public insti- tutions in the city’s black working-class neighborhoods. Finally, the article concludes with a brief evalu- ation of the careers of African American activist state legislators David Richardson and Roxanne Jones and W. Wilson Goode, Philadelphia’s first African American mayor. Keywords: Black Power; community control; independent politics; Democratic Party The political philosophy of black nationalism means that the black man should control the politics and politicians in his own community.

  • THE RAMAPO MOUNTAIN PEOPLE DAVID STEVEN COHEN Photographs by Robert Goldstein
    Fourth PTinting THE RAMAPO MOUNTAIN PEOPLE DAVID STEVEN COHEN Photographs by Robert Goldstein Northwest of Manhattan where the New York-New Jersey boundary crosses the tree- covered ridges and hollows of the Ramapo Mountains there is a group of about 1,500 racially mixed people who have long been referred to by journalists and historians as the "Jackson Whites." In a study combining the disciplines of an- thropology, sociology, folklore, and history, David Cohen found that the old stories about these people were legends, not history. He found no reliable evidence that their ancestors were Tuscarora Indians, Hessian deserters from the British army, escaped slaves, and British and West Indian prostitutes imported by a sea captain named Jackson for the pleasure of British soldiers occupying Manhattan during the War for Independence. David Cohen lived among the Ramapo Moun- tain People for a year, conducting genealogical research into church records, deeds, wills, and inventories in county courthouses and li- braries. He established that their ancestors included free black landowners in New York City and mulattoes with some Dutch ancestry who were among the first pioneers to settle in the Hackensack River Valley of New Jersey. In describing his findings and his experi- ences, Professor Cohen shows how their ra- cially mixed ancestry, their special family and kinship system, and their intergroup attitudes and folkways distinguish and socially isolate these people as a separate racial group today, despite modern communications and trans- portation and their proximity to New York City.
